Like your channel like the old equipment grew up working summers on my grandfather's farm running deere equipment since 1976 worked at a potash mine on the utah nevada boarder equipment operator been operating motorgraders for 40 + years all brands old wabcos, galions,champion,volvos, deere, cat currently operating a 2020 cat 14m3 with 16 ft blade cats my favorite so keep posting I will keep watching liking thx again.
Thanks Zane - was probably the easiest thing to get running that weekend out of all the stuff we managed to fire up. How are you doing? Haven’t seen a video in a while. Hope your doing ok. Take care pal
I’ve always wanted to try to operate a grader I almost got a chance to the neighbor had one and we got it running but before I could get a chance to try it he had it grading the old road/driveway and got it in a hard pull and broke the axle that drives the chain on the right side and we tried and tried to get the broken piece out but couldn’t it broke at the spline at the diff something wedged it in tight
Hey Bryce - unfortunately we got an inch of rain the night before and we didn’t have much of a plow day it was to wet we tried but we just broke lots of stuff cause everything was plugging up and too heavy. Sorry sir - Mother Nature was not in our favour.
Some - been slowly plugging away at refurbishing pistons and liners - summer is really hard for me to work on projects with work I have to travel a lot all over the place.
@@ironman3406 I understand entirely. I will be watching when you get videos on it. My pistons were fine, just needed cleaning up. Mine is 6 3/4 and the one none cracked cylinder was in very good reusable condition. The 3 replacement cylinders were pitted but were 6 1/2 so bored to 6 3/4 and I was good to go. The bearings weren’t that good but I didn’t want to postpone the project a couple more years to get new ones poured.
