Excellent video, I’m tackling my newly acquired hd6 steering clutches in the spring, mine are a lot rustier looking then yours though. Mines been sitting 10 years
@@mrandrewdennis1 Ya for the few of us that still have these this is pure GOLD! where did you get parts? I need new brake bands at some point, oil leaks from somewhere and mine are fouled.
My grandfather and my dad helped me a long the way. I hope to pass the same down to my son. I helps when you work junk. lol thank you for watching and commenting!
I have bought more old stuff I had no idea how to fix and now I have a stable full of working equipment, not the least of which is my HD6G that I got cheap because the main clutch was out of it. I had never worked on any heavy equipment before that.
Cant wait till part 2. I'm pulling both my clutches out of my HD5G here after I finish my dam build. My HD5G has a HD6 rear on it so it's exactly the same as yours. I'm going to order my clutches and whatever else I need from general gear in Idaho. Quick question about the side access bolts you removed to get the pins out, did you just reach thru with a long bolt and punch them out? If not what did ya have to do? Also are you going to be replacing any bearings or seals inside on the clutch cage housing(the part that press against the clutch to disengage the clutches?
I’m having problems with my steering clutches after burying it in my pond, I really hope I don’t have to get this far into it. I tried cleaning them out with gasoline hoping they will work
Didn’t have to remove anything, tightened the brakes down, tied back the levers and stood on the brakes popped the clutch and broke free. Buried under water for over 3 months and this machine still runs like a champ
