@trevortorrens5028 2 года назад

Hey Matt and crew I know cutting that stock spindle off and welding the trailer spindle on was an emergency repair but I wanted to point out that the stock spindle looks like a 2,000 pound capacity trailer spindle. You may be able to directly swap trailer hubs onto the other ones in the future rather than modifying them all. The hub you used is for a 3500 pound axle. It has a L44649 outer bearing which has a 1.063” inner diameter. Check the stock spindles to see what size they are. If they are 1” exact you can use L44643 bearing they are 1.00” ID. I am only 2:43 into the video so maybe you get into this more an I haven’t seen lol. Also that arm you’re welding the spindle to looks like a UFP torsion spindle arm so you might be able to get another one if you don’t have a source for it already. It also kinda looks like it could be a tie down engineering part too. All trailer stuff. I’m gonna finish the video. Good luck fellas. I hope you see this and it’s useful

I am sure there are parts for these available. They hardly changed anything on these vehicles over the years. There are a lot of these still in service up here with some of them being used commercially hauling freight up frozen rivers this time of year. They deliver many things including cabin materials to remote places.

@sanddan525 2 года назад

I am sure he used that spindle because it was in a pile of junk somewhere on the compound. Why would he get the correct fitting part? That’s too easy, Come On Man.......

@jpconkwright 2 года назад

Agreed Trevor. If he wants to find bearings that work they are likely available. Need an IBI bearing interchange book to find them by dimension. @Matt I’d be happy to help if you need all the cross referencing done. I’m betting we could find bearings that make the trailer hubs go on the factory spindles and you could convert the rest of the vehicle with no cut/weld.

For those of you that don't know, a smoke wrench is also called a hot wrench, or a blue tip wrench. I'm sure there are more names for a cutting torch.

Now I always love watching Matt problem solve and fabricate. But I really love the patagonia welding table he used to weld the axle stub to the big hunk of metal!

So Trevor was in the army, he worked with track? He must have been a tanker then

@NicCageForPresident2024 2 года назад

He was probably a mechanic but maybe a tanker. I was in the cavalry trained at Fort Knox with the tankers nearby. In the US Army 19 is armor I was Cavalry 19D and Tankers are 19K. Trevor was probably a 91.

By the way thank you for serving in the Australian Army my dad was a Vietnam veteran and fought alongside a lot of Aussies. He always had nothing but good things to say about the Aussies.

@Tater- 2 года назад

@StalinTube yeah in your category I was 19k, don't see many ever mechanics down here doing anything track related that's an operator level task haha but yeah with his skill set I could easily see him being a mechanic on "A" vehicles

Could you have ever imagined that, when you started filming you and your crew just doing their job, you'd be getting anywhere from 600K to over one million views per upload and soon-to-be one million subscribers? On one hand that's almost unimaginable, but on the other hand it makes perfect sense because of the interesting work and amazing people involved. Congrats on the overwhelming success you and the crew have achieved. Couldn't have happened to a more deserving bunch.

@Chris_at_Home 2 года назад

I did a track change on a Nodwell myself once just laying the track out and using a Cat to push the Nowell on, then using a chain to pull the on top. Hooked a come-along to draw it together and bolted it together. It wasn’t to bad. This was over 40 years ago.

I love the way you have built a team of friends and family who all work together to get the job done. It doesn't matter if it is Paul working on Ed's suzuki or Robby restoring your banana or everyone fixing the snowcat it is great to see friends helping friends. I have loved watching the work that Paul has put into Ed's Suzuki and teaching his son as he is going. Can't learn that stuff out of a textbook. I have learnt so much from watching his videos but the most important thing is this is not a job for Paul, it is a labour of love :) Hi from Australia.

Matt, thanks to binge watching your channel I managed to help two cars that got stuck in snow today (nothing too serious but they couldn't move). Never realized how much knowledge I gained through RU-vid until I got into the situation. Still amateur hour, but I was so happy that we managed it 🙂

@greatnortherntroll6841 2 года назад

It occurs to me that you'd be wise to drill out the backside of that stub-axle block (that wasn't welded to the frame) with a large diameter bit, and then you can get a weld on a much greater area of the stub-axle. Right now, all you've got is the perimeter welded!

Every man should be in a group of useful men. The boys and I; it's a wonderful thing to have a group where you learn new things from each other and then knowing how the other operates, everyone putting in full effort; making projects easy and fun. One of us needs something built or repaired we're there for each other.
