Todd takes a field trip to Ace Powder Coating to get his cases, transmission cover, head and rocker boxes vapor blasted. Ken at Ace Powder Coating also explains how the process of vapor blasting works and how its way better cleaning solution for your motor parts. After all the parts are vapor blasted Todd goes back to his garage to start the rebuilding process to his Triumph 650 motor, installing all of the bearings that go in each side of the case. Also shows you an easy trick to check if your cam bushings need replaced or not.

So amazing. Thank you from dangerously mechanically inclined. The detail and the note of redundancy is so helpful.
So good Todd. Thank you for the guidance. The door on your cabinet opening again and again reminded me of working with my dad 30 years ago in his garage on myriad old cars, he had a cabinet that his vice was mounted to and it always opened when we were doing anything. This made me laugh and remember days past. Great job on this series. I am rebuilding a ’68 650 as well and this seres offers loads of important insight. Thank you Lowbrow!
SO cool man! . My Dad used to drag race Triumphs in the So Cal area back in the 60's & 70's and has so many parts. He's done with it all now and handed down his 1951 triumph along with all of his unit & pre-unit parts, frames, tools and stuff. Your videos and service are just what I need to make sense of it all and get rolling down the road. Thanks and keep it up!
I'm in the middle of the tear down now, and already these videos have come in real handy. Thank you very much! I'll be sure to buy stuff from you to pay for it😉
Excellent video's. Rebuild 650 Trophy motor about 35 years ago wish these video's were around then. Brings back memories.
I'm busy rebuilding my Triumph Bonneville T120 1972 650cc engine and your videos have been of so much help. Thanks so much!
I have a '72 (titled '73) Bonneville V. Does yours have the 5 speed also?
Todd,
I am at this point in my 78 T140 Rebuild. So thanks for the assembly video #7. These your venison have been of great help.
Thanks again.
Robert
I'm rebuilding a 67 triumph 650 your instruction videoes are very helpful thanks.
Amazing as always. Clear and easy to follow. Todd is great and these engine vids really help me out!
A real joy to watch. Love the Vapor Blasting. No such thing up here in northern Canada, so it means soaking all my parts in Diesel fuel for a couple of weeks and then washing them in naptha gas. It makes em look pretty good but not as perfect as yours.
Thanks for the video and God bless.
"...reach 'round the back side there, and give it a little wiggle. Feels kind'a good..."
You crack me up, sir! 😄
Excellent series, thanks for your video efforts!
Excellent instruction, Todd!
For the bearings, if you can locate an oven, the cases can be evenly heated to 250f. the thermal expansion tapers off after 212f so it will be the most accommodating to the frozen bearings. I use an old welding rod oven. When I want to remove crank bearings, I put the case in the oven at 250 and in about 20 minutes the bearing usually drops out.
Thanks for posting, Todd. Great stuff
excellent video as always great to see real life instruction thanks
You guys are awsome thanks for the uploads
Outstanding series! THanks Todd
Great videos, I'm just about to strip down and rebuild my 5TA so these will be very useful
I am exactly at this point now on my 66 TR6R. On Thursday evening (14 Feb 2019 Valentines Day) I press in my bearings. Squeaky bum time! Then go go go!
I am now a follower.Thanks!
Edward Turner is smiling on you brother.
Put the bearings in freezer for a while warm cases they will drop in without all the bashing
For how long?
36:46 It's that damn cabinet door i tell ya! Time to velcro tab that bitch.
37:17 Lookin back... ready to throw that hammer @ the help poppin' off.
All funnin' aside, much obliged for the insight of precise steps taken to dis & reassemble
the 650 engine. Hell Fuzzy, now i need to get back to Big D Cycle & give em' another brisket for overhauling mine. Loooking forward for more posts of the build. 4718
Brilliant video
I just brought my first Triumph 650 and have luckily found these vids - they are amazing, thanks Todd
I wait everyday too see if a new vids up bout time lol
Thanks
As well as heating case I put bearings in the freezer they slid straight in just using my thumbs
FINALLY! :D
Very competent and friendly person: your work bench unfortunately does not have a lot of ballast or the structure is not well tied. So it vibrates a lot in its competent disassembly and assembly. It would be convenient to back up with some impermeable bags of clean sand (like water filtration) below the bench's center of gravity, giving it more rigidity. With a bench with great inertia, everything is easier and safer. Your work is wonderful!
Is there no need for pre greaseing or assembly lube on the bearings?
Instead of heating up the crankcase halves with the torch like you did, could you also heat it up using the grill method like you used on disassembly?
THanks,
Rob
Yes, i am aware of the age of the video.but it is still relevant :)
Hi Todd, when did you install the intermediate shaft before it fell out a little later on on the video? Did I miss something some how?
He said “Obviously”. Old school Vet here. Probably put this thing back together blind folded, eyes closed and sleeping. But obviously that bearing goes right there fellas, come on!
You make great informative video, thanks...keep up the great work!! Q: what is the best hardtail add-on for a '70 Bonny?
We make our own hardtails for that year. www.lowbrowcustoms.com/lowbrow-customs-1963-1970-triumph-unit-650-c-c-bolt-on-hardtail-frame-in-stock.html
I can probably refer to this video with figuring out if I am getting gear oil or motor oil leaking out onto the sprocket while riding. Its a 78 t140v
Hey Todd, I am in New Zealand following your videos as I completely disassemble and reassemble my 73 T140v, in a 69 TR6P frame, which I've had for 32 yrs now; she's 50 this year, so it's a nice birthday present to her... I have a quick question if you still view them, would you vapour blast the Amal Carbs also..? I see you didn't and wondered if there was a reason for that, please..? OK, ride on man... Cheers Robin.
We usually just run new carbs, most the time those old ones bow or leak and cause troubles. Its just easier to replace them with fresh new ones.
Do you have a list of all the bearing you used? ...for modern manuf. and part numbers.
Give todd a call at 1-855-456-9276 he will get you a list :)
In my humble opinion You need to have a solid base when knocking in bearings , wooden top has too much bounce
Thanks for the videos, but you need a stronger bench!
Can you recommend a Bearing Install / Removal kit for the UK please.
just using an inexpensive one from harbor freight... doesn't need to be fancy just needs to get the job done.
What's it cost to have everything blasted?
Just came across this video I ride a trump myself and found it interesting. But the first thing that struck me is he looks like the biker in the bar from terminator two that Aronld takes his clothes his boots and motorcycle. 😂
Can you list the bearing part numbers please? I'm assuming I can get all these bearings through lowbrowcustoms.com.
I have a 67 Bonneville T120 650cc
Thank you...
If the camera wasn't on the bearings would have gone in straight!
12 ton press.....anyone? anyone?
