Cat Cylinder Removal Procedure: Cancel gravity in surrounding work area. Turn lights off in shop. Flip the equipment upside down and work from the other side.
Been there. When you put it back , strap a piece of square tube to the barrel , come out to the end of the rod eye and then weld a piece straight up , high enough to clear top of frame, then a piece back toward the barrel end. And a lifting eye on top. Balance the cyl and slide it right back in. Easiest way to reinstall.
I guess it's because it is (was !) an underground mining truck, that all components are "agglomerated" so tight in a damn narrow space ! Good work though, boys !
Wrong, it's not the length of the extensions, it's the number of them, each joint is where torque is lost, one singe long extension limiting it to 2 joints would most likely have worked
At least you had fun with your scraper. My first thought was to stick a forklift fork under the cylinder to support it. Of course I wasn’t fighting it for two days. Too bad there’s child labor laws. You need a little person to crawl in there. These tear down videos are the best.
I have no idea how your business works…. Hopefully resale of part takes into consideration all the labor. Wow what an effort. All the best in 24. Also like the Cat system overview.
Good mornin from Bend Quinton. Any idea on when you will be doing some work on your old Hooker Creek Pete 359 ? I asked in a previous video but figured there was a better chance of you seeing the question in a new video.
Cool... I'm really looking forward to you bringing the old girl back to life. I drove truck for 40 years, and the 359's have always been my favorite.@@quintonbartolotta
