Breaking down 

Bradford..absolute true statement..i could safely say not many of us have accomplished what this young man has done..He is a one man band..does it all..and is one of the most creative guys i have watched on YT...keyboard warriors who think they know it all are fools..and can't even hold his wrench...

+ iamrichrocker I keep reading comments from people like you bitching about the negative comments but i have yet to see one.

Eh, there are a couple of douchebags on here that can't just give some helpful advice without saying dumb crap like "I would be ashamed if I did that". Too bad all their doing is showing what wastes of life they are.

exactly this...he is an everyday worrior...

Well said!

GmJunky87 I found it hilarious

I found it painful to my ears. It’s not music is it? Perhaps some screeching to drive away raccoons.

@Ladyboy Susie SISSY Pantyprincess PANTYSISSY F800 don't exist. They only go up to F750

jake the minibiker on the new trucks it goes up to f750 but older ones were f800 and up

pete smyth no you can tell it was on the radio

Don't forget, put some BBQ sauce on the bearings !!!

i kept yelling at the screen....what u dont own a torch????

or use the flame and heat the hole the ball bearing is pressed against the outer shirt will not be damaged

My grandfather used that trick for piston jobs, worked great.

Heat the housing in an Oven and freeze the bearings. It will just slide together effortlessly.

I was more wondering how you are supposed to get the inner bearing out first with the spacer installed so you can actually reach the snap ring. Makes we wonder as well if the spacer is original. But if not I would actually expect two different sizes of bearings, so each can have a lip as registration surface.

I’m genuinely impressed the jack didn’t blow up and send shrapnel all over the shop.

Same here, I've replaced a lot of bearings in components that were never meant to have their bearings replaced and never seen such an arrangement. In this specific arrangement the snap ring makes sense, but only an engineer would place it where it was! I wonder if the original design only had a single bearing in it and this was a '-1' factory fix?

@@alexku8452 pretty sure you gotta directly press on the spacer/ outer bearing then remove the snapring and inner bearing. pain in the ass.

Right? Like the time he lost power and brakes in his crane, it stared to roll down the hill, so he bailed, and the next day he went to retrieve it, like he's done it a million times before. And it was lying on its side, too! A crane! After he bailed, he probably said, "well, that's not good. I'll fix that tomorrow." Me on the other hand, a guy who once punched a VCR, would not have handled that with such grace and aplomb.

Blaine Lucas omg so funny 😆 😂 😂 😂 oh wait I forgot to laugh

Once a Diesel engine is started it requires no electricity

@@davidyancey1176 Spontaneous Combustion. A Big Giant Cox Engine. ;-)

Old diesel trucks like that can run forever without electricity. New trucks won’t start if the headlight fluid sensor is bad.

Mark M Yup, headlight fluid sensors are the worst! Although windshield oil and belt filters are not far behind, as you very well know!

Bobbspinkyfinger was thinking the same thing id be throwing tools and slamming shit and cussing up a storm, haha.

When you drive 30 year old stuff I guess its hard to get mad when it breaks... When you drop $50-$70-$100K+ on a truck and it breaks then fbombs and tool throwing should be expected.

Dude I would have had an aneurysm.

Yo that snapring would have been my undoing . This guy is Superman.

when it comes down to it, what good does yelling and throwing stuff ever do? I used to get pissed and yell, but it only made me look like a maniac. Nothing good ever came about it. Now I just walk away and come back fresh and my stress levels have gone way down, The problems iddnt dissapear, just dont let it get me excited

@WorldRenownedCFE ah well, this looked pretty safe to me. The press itself has an overpressure valve and the metal rod could only go into the idler

That is okay but to smash new bearings with hammer is no good.it is okay on outside ring

@@RubenKelevra with that much force that outer hub could have exploded. definitely not super safe but still, it worked.

@@0xsergy Some presses have cages. Scary shit.

djay4487 deved what are you smoking?

@@finncampeau4922 there was this and then another person directly under with a j and under the j was a w

I think I would be the same way. :)

I'd be slapping him right and left

@@awax2585 for?

VGAPR Garage, I've seen many a new bearing destroyed by driving it in on the unsupported race.

No. You only hit or press the bearing race that is open. For the install, Andrew should have had something large enough to press the outer race to not load up the ball bearings but some times you do press the inner race if the bearings are pressed onto a shaft. Generalizations like yours lead to failures. Surprising since you’re allegedly a mechanic. In Andrew’s case to remove the bearings you don’t have a choice since the outer race isn’t accessible.

Wayne Crews, not sure if you are referring to my comment? If so, I apologize if it is vague or misleading. You are exactly correct with pressing the inner race when installing on a shaft and outer race when pressing into a housing. I'll also add that when I install sealed bearings such as the ones in this video, I try to use a press and refrain from driving them in if at all possible. One slip with a punch and the seal is ruined. Then back to the bearing store we go. A quick tip....a person can use the old bearing (after a little size alteration with a grinder) as a bearing driver to install the new bearing.

To The Top Crane No. I wasn’t referring to your comment. The original comment that said to only drive it on the outer bearing race. You are correct by referring to the unsupported bearing race. The one set of press caps that Andrew shows at the end should work for most bearing removals and installs.

Surprised to see that mistake, but NOW he knows better. lol

We charge more when you have a go at breaking it.

@@maritimemisfits3360 Thats why you will go out of business when we learn from You Tube how to do stuff. BTW that why you get shafted from other professionals.

At 73 I would like to be there helping, the mind wants to ,but the body with arthurites could not. Like to see you expand and have help when you get to my age.

That's not American, pretty much most people in the 3rd world do that everyday because they lack the means to pay someone else.

Buy from the local parts house! Your supporting the local economy, families and your usually not buying crap from foreign mfgs!!.

They do all the time, I don't want to turn these videos into commercials.

@@AndrewCamarata As they shouldn't be. We know what's good, and that's you!

Those were both sealed they were not water proof neither of them

Lohhjj Lohicv metal shields are just to keep grease in and a small amount dirt out. Rubber shields were designed to do a bit more by providing a way to keep more dirt out and somewhat water proof as well, they accomplish this by using a higher quality grease that itself is resistant to water infiltration. Will the rubber shields wear out ... yes and then the grease itself will still provide a measure of protection until it wears down from exposure as well. My dad learned this over years of work on motors, he eventually came to stock and install only the rubber shielded bearings because they “outright” lasted longer. In severe service motors he would actually carefully remove one of the rubber shields and repack the bearing with a very high quality water proof grease and then reinstall the shield and had great success with this process with motors that were in “wash down” areas of food processing.

last as long as that truck will.

the ruined one looked like it used to be shielded, but then something forced the shield between the rolling elements

@@sickmannduane633 yes that is correct yo uhave 3 bearing types non-contact, rubber shield, and metal shield the have pro/con and benefits.

No the bearings failed, the Snap-Ring was good for 60 tons or more.

That was his dad helping out. I’m surprised he didn’t say anything about beating down the center of the bearing. Learning small stuff off your own back is a million times more satisfying. That’s probably how Andrew got so good.

reno5298 thanks.

HELL YES

Renė Michael Vulf Mortensen unless your putting a bearing over a shaft

I think if he tried to push both bearings out by pushing the outer race of the top bearing he still would have pooched the bottom bearing as it would have been pushed out by the inner race anyways due to the spacer/sleeve between the two bearings...Best to change both anyways...

Harry, I'm not talking about the bearing removal, I'm talking about the installation of the new bearings.

Yeah Jim I made the comment half way through the vid lol...like you said the install method might not be the best if the goal was wanting them to last...But I must admit I have done the same thing in the past though I did tap the outer race as far as possible lmao...probably why I had to replace them again a couple years later.

Always use the outer race unless your putting a bearing on a shaft

Unless of course you are putting it on a shaft

Thank you.

I nearly fell off my chair when he started pounding on that inner race, WHY . . . didn't he, [at least] use the hydraulic press?!?!?!?!?!

No, you should see what a Claymore looks like...well, you really don't wanna be close enough to see what a Claymore looks like...lol.

I used to do a lot of mechanical work in factories .. and sometimes we'd steal one of their CO2 fire extinguishers to freeze bearings :)

I love when I learn little things in the comment section 😂
