Today on the channel we take some time and try to fix a few things on our Model 40 Crawler - starter, generator and the ignition switch. The goal is to get it starting and charging like it should, with the flip of a switch!

Who is ready to see the steering clutches get fixed so we can USE this thing!?

@ClintsHobbiesDIY Год назад

Me for sure.

@art1muz13 Год назад

Me for sure.

@weirdmeisterinc Год назад

me too...great you saved this thing

@Chuckingrocks36 Год назад

Yes for sure. I have one I bought and before installing rebuilt motor I was planning on checking steering clutches.

Because of its size [not too big or little], its strong engine, and its potential, I'd love to see this dozer in a full nut/bolt restoration series. There's an excellent chance that 1] you can either fix, make, or adapt via new tech anything that's broken or no longer available. 2] upon completion it'd still be there for you for another 65 yrs [if the Lord tarries]. 3] during that time you could turn it into a one-of-a-kind JD Crawler with its optional backhoe and "GearMatic" winch. I'd love to watch a series like that no matter how how long the videos were or how many episodes it took. *God bless* guys.

@morgansword Год назад

Wish I could find a toy like that as I have tons of firewood to get out... just cause I'm seventy three doesn't mean I shouldn't do something... loving this one!!

@dieseJL Год назад

Yeah! I see quite a few for sale.... great for skidding logs!!

@divadyrdnal Год назад

Love the sound of those 2 cylinder JDs…cool machine!

@scottrobinson9752 Год назад

I had an opportunity to buy a really clean one of these. It had mid level resto job on it. It was clean, and in good working order. The guy also had an industrial version of the John Deere 2030, with a front loader, roll over canopy, etc... I ended up buying the 2030, which I used to do some clearing work when we bought our land. And I then traded that for a fully restored 1946 2N with a half dozen implements that came with it. Its a great tractor and I get a ton of stuff done with it. But there are many days that I wish I had that crawler.

@dieseJL Год назад

Yeah they’re too cool to get rid of!

@ClintsHobbiesDIY Год назад

It amazes me how much it will push. Great job on the starter and generator.

@dieseJL Год назад

Thanks! I’m excited to get the rest of it sorted out so I can really use it. My entire life the blade has somewhat worked and at best it had one side of the steering clutch/brakes working.

@TriColorMonk Год назад

I have one of these in my barn. Had it running and lost spark completely. Thank you for walking through the wire assembly!

@dieseJL Год назад

Glad it could help!

@dieseJL Год назад

Thanks for the support!!

@jazzerbyte Год назад

Interesting machine, good to see progress!

@garyhopkinssr8561 11 месяцев назад

Those old parties were really good I know I have one

@timcope3115 Год назад

You can try polarizing the regulator to get it charging. Also if you have the wire reversed on the gauge it will show it discharging when it is actually charging.

@dieseJL Год назад

Yeah I think I just had the gauge wired backwards

@DunbarLandFarms Год назад

Looks like it will be a fun machine.

@ChileExpatFamily Год назад

Love the channel. I just discovered you. Hate the wasps. The great thing about Chile is we have no Wasps like Yall have in the former USA. Jim

@tectalabyss Год назад

I own a 1958 Jet toter That had a 352 ford engine. I would have to see more of that machine you asked about to be sure..

@codychrismon2059 Год назад

Love it want to see more 😅

@tommymann69 Год назад

This reminds me of hamiltonville farm on RU-vid

@Drew6709 Год назад

Sounds like my old 59 jd430. 2 cylinder "Johnny pop" sound. I miss that distinct sound.

@dieseJL Год назад

It’s the best part about them!

@georgecalder5175 Год назад

We call those adjustable wrenches or Cresent wrench you were using a ( Saskatchewan socket set ) good for any tractor 🇨🇦

@bobpatterson7343 Год назад

I've got a 1958 420 these things are more fun than a four wheeler

@dieseJL Год назад

I know they are!!

@teddyhammack2195 Год назад

You have to use clutch’s with foot brakes to steer it .

@robertshoemaker6204 Год назад

Just curious....what part of the country are you at Midwest? Looks like a great project...Shoe in Oregon.

@dieseJL Год назад

Michigan!

@@dieseJLI saw you sporting an AAM shirt and figure you must be in the 3 Rivers area. I retired from AAM in 05. The Fanuc shirt has me wondering if you are an electrician at AAM?

@cedricgates9976 Год назад

You need a Grass trimmer bad in there.

@robertordewald8678 Год назад

If you've been watching it was not charging it was going over to the discharge side just FYI

@59jm24 Год назад

I have had a 40 C for decades. The worst part of the machine is the brake and steering clutch adjusters Other than that they are great.

@natel2046 Год назад

I have a 1936 Cle track that's been sitting in my shed for years and specifically meant for skidding logs keep saying someday I'm going to get going again
