You can talk any way you like an we'll be watching. (oops - is "an" farmer talk?) Anybody that criticizes you for "talking like a farmer" is not only insulting you, but farmers. When he gets his own channel nobody can watch him talk any way he sees fit. Keep up the great job - many, many of us appreciate the time and money you take to make these fine videos to entertain us. Thanks!
Dang Jeff, I am in the line boring business in NH, which is "slightly" out of range for me to be of any help and not cost a fortune in travel and shipping. However it's not that hard to bore linkage straight & parallel. There must be someone out that way in range of your place that can do the job right. Maybe they are watching? anyway I hope you get it fixed so it is trouble free and working correctly. Cheers
Fantastic video Jeff; you’re killing it per usual!! It’s evident you actually have fun doing this.... time consuming though it be. Thanks for sharing these and hope ya have a great weekend!!🍻
thanx for videos, U bring back memories from my father, he worked on D9 scrapers, at a place called Texas Gulf in Utah, one memories was he brought home a blown piston, the biggest piston ive ever seen, 8-10 inches across, with like two or three valves in the top, i took it to my auto shop class teacher and the guys were amazed, i let the teacher keep it for his display case, that was in early 80's thanx again...*
Jeff...i imagine when people see you driving down the road with all these big equipment that you must be some rich contractor with money falling out of your pockets...but have no idea the money falling out of your pockets keeps on going to pay for the equipment upkeep..tires..regular maintenance ..fuel..wages..and overhauls etc...and just going week to week has to be a financial juggling act..now i know why you are half crazy..deep respect to what you do and how you do it..
I did a set of Deere loader wheels, had them all sandblasted, gave them a quick shot of primer then a little body filler to level out any of the pitting, filled and sanded the o-ring grooves to perfection, a couple coats of two part paint and they were as smooth as glass. Much smaller tires than yours but they glide on and off by hand now and zero leaks!
We still haven't had any rain here since the first of June. Sure could use a good soaker! Get some of your viewers to relay that hitch out to me and I will un-f&CK it for ya. Fixing other peoples hack jobs is my standard business. :-)
American machine tools makes a line boring setup that uses a mag drill. I've used on everything from skidsteers to a 345 cat. For the money u can't beat it to do your own work.
Thank you for demonitizing your video by ventilating your burn barrel. I for one appreciated it! As always a cool show of things that make old kitties new again.
Maybe put a 3/4" thick collar on the ram that pushes the bowl out while you are modifying the head end to limit the stroke so it can't hit that pivot bracket and tear it up anymore.
I would talk to your local machine shop about your line boring. Chances are they know someone that would be competent. Running the bar isn’t hard it’s the set up that makes things work
love the vids. started on a dw21 ran 14a on a 435 up to 627 and a wide nose 31c ended on a 27B and a few rounds on a 31d (when they were new). Would love to see you jacking a 37 for a tire change with a d9 sitting on the pushblock
👈 HEY JEFF... THAT BURN BARREL {MUST BE} 🤩 [ EPA ] "A - OKAY " CERTIFIED (CLEAN AIR) now that it is getting proper air-mix ...👍😊 😉 BOY, lots of maintenance WHEN the 🥴( { [ certified FACTORY TRAINED] } ) 😵 HIRED HELP doesn't get things right to begin when rebuilding !!! 🤮 BE SAFE - GOD BLESS THANKS FOR A PEAK INTO YOUR OPERATIONS 😍😍😍😍😍
I was taking the back wheel off my MF 390 T, and I'm quite a person, but I tripped and I fell back with the wheel on top of me. It fairly pinned me to the floor, I couldn't get up, until my friend caim 2 hours later.
Any reason why scrapers have that particular tread pattern? Always seem to have for as long as I can remember but maybe it’s just coincidence with the ones I’ve seen
I'd tell your friends/ co workers, whomever not to handle hydraulic lines under pressure. Seen a guy get his hand cut wide open and injected with oil when a fitting burst in his hand, not a good situation.
How do you track all your maintenence and repairs for all of your equipment? Do you have a log book for each, go by memory or use an Excel spreadsheet like I do? Just curious.
Them there tires was still guud, why replace tyres with tread that hold air ? Nah seriously i learned something new about working on a scraper. thanks for teaching us

Jeff, how do you like the new radial scraper tires compared to the old trusty bias ply tires you pulled off? Do they seem to hold up well for you? I noticed you swapped to radials on the grader as well.
I was curious myself so "googled" 637 tyres couldn't find a price, which only means one thing, a bit like the first time I was in Harrods looking at watches.
Whare did you work? And they didnt let you wash thier??? Shit i was hualung out equipment for a guy and i had to wash my semi and thier equipment on job sight before o could leave!
Regarding your scared comment early in the video: I'm more scared of the two little 12" trailer tires I did yesterday than I ever would be of one of those monsters.
Try Laserline for your lineboring they are in Eastern Idaho 208 313 9184. Or 208 313 9798. They are also the guys to call to align truck and trailer axles
Here you go again working on scrapers.I bet you could work on those in your sleep.By the way Jeff did you have a video up and take it down because it was filmed at the government job and somebody saw it and complained?637's hooking up and 740 Cats was the title I think.Sucks if that happened never got to see it.
