Clark Michigan 275B Documentary 

Some of the best wheel loaders on the market in their time. Still a lot of hard feelings around here about the manufacturing plants closing. Most of our older neighbors worked for Clark at some point.

Thanks, for all of us heavy equipment nerds.

These vids take me back to being 10-11 and riding my BMX bike up to South Hills Village where they were building out the new trolley depot and crawling all over the big graders and earth movers. I could watch these all day. You do such a great job of explaining technical details and also keeping it energetic and not technically dry. Thanks for your work!

I always enjoy your documentaries. As a fellow tractor nerd, it’s always fun to hear the specifications on the older machines and compare them to the newer machines. Equipment certainly has advanced over the years, unfortunately, not all advancements were good ones.

My dad owned a Clark Michigan 475b in Pittsburgh. Epic machine.

My friend had an old 75B for years and it was a super tough loader!!…Clark really knew how to design and manufacture equipment and their drivetrain division was among the best in the world!!..cheers!!

Wow, that loader is in excellent shape considering it's age...nice video

Thanks and Good Coverage, Pal! I always thought that Clark/Michigan made fine equipment but now hear that Volvo is the cream of the crop. B U T we both know that the machine will just go so far. It's who SITS IN THE SEAT that makes the difference! Blessings To All Yall!

Great history and detail on this popular machine, had to watch it twice. Great video as always

Nice work once again sir 👍👍👍 You do good research and it shows in the quality of the video...

Great loaders they were really heavy duty very reliable machines , thank you for this information and fine video ! 👍👍

Spent many hours in one of those. Wow, some outfit got their money's worth out of that purchase many years ago. Bet she can still put a days work in while the new junk sits with computer problems lol.

This one seems to be a very good condition in overall. We had a much smaller Michigan in -70's ...

Excellent! Boy, you can sure tell this machine was made well before all the litigation going on in the country we have today over EVERYTHING. The way you get in and out of the cab would never fly in today's world LOL

Nice old machine. You can probably guess what I’m thinking when I see Clark! 😀👍👍🇺🇸

7:20 new boots? Another very informative video🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍👊👊👊.

Mike perry had 175 with home made rops cummins v8 loaded red dog for mine and logging roads back in the day thanks for more memorys PA

165 gallons of hydraulic oil!?!?!? Never have to worry about the oil getting hot!!

Well done.

Were these also available with a Detroit engine?

Second loader I have used to load trucks was 275 B.

This one still in service?

Separate forward/reverse handles and gear selector handles. Does that mean that the operator can change the direction of the machine in ANY gear?

Got the speeds backwards first was at the top it was in 4th reverse when you got in it. Lots of cool old lron left up there.

Hey 👋

new boots!!

I'd like to see a forklift turn in the middle.

My dad used to make those axels fir those bad boys and much bigger.

Waardeloze film, minimaal verwacht dat deze shovel zou werken. Maar nee eindeloos gelul over niks.
