  • Working on a 7810 that the hitch wouldn't lower due to water getting in cylinder and rust building up between wear ring and barrel making the wear ring tight on the rod.

    I am not a mechanic or know anything about engines but found this channel and have watched hours of it. It just amazes me watching folks with skills that can do or fix about anything. I spend 10 minutes working on something and get frustrated and throw tools or throw my hands up. Subscribed

      Frustrating?? If you only knew!!
      Working on an a/c for an older truck! Vacuum it down for 30 mins, let it sit for an hour, then when it held, pulled a vacuum and charged it. Two days later, the system leaked so bad, I heard the hissing before the a/c went warm! This weekend, I set out to fix it. Compressor, accumulator, orifice tube, a can of a/c oil, and all, over $300! Already had a 30lb tank of freon. And a spare 30lb tank! New, not reman compressor.
      First, the orifice tube can only be accessed after removing the front grill. The connections on the condenser were so corroded, I couldn't remove them without $$$$$ damage. So, I didn't replace the tube! Went to install the compressor, and couldn't get the old sensor from the old compressor, so another $20 trip to the store! I get it all finished and go to charge the system, and I'm a couple pounds short in the 30lb tank. No problem, go to retrieve the spare 30lb tank from storage, and even tho it's still sealed in all original wrapping, ITS EMPTY!! That was $100 when I bought it. $130 now!! Off to the parts store for 3 more little can of freon! Get back home, fire it up and the brand new not reman'd compressor has a noise in the brand new clutch!! Oh well, just a noise! Get to the second can of freon, and it's a dud!! It's full, but won't work!! Got 2 in, the third is a dud, and I'm about 1 can short!!
      Frustrating doesn't even start to describe how working on things can be!! It makes you want to slam your head in a car door, over and over, and over, AND OVER, AND OVER!!

    Hey Warren, good video, couple suggestions: ALWAYS measure rods on JD hitch cylinder, they come mix matched from the factory dependent on how tractor hitch specs are. Also, try leaving the barrel attached to the tractor, some cannot be removed anyway. Lower the hitch, remove draft arm on the side you are fixing, lift the hitch with your hoist and block it up, lean the cylinder forward and yard the rod out with your hoist, makes a better stand than your vise, anyway!

    I got a good chuckle when you grabbed the bigger hammer.And, I don't feel so bad now. I was installing new seal kit in a Hein Werner floor jack pump. I tapped two shafts into place. Thought I might have buggered the seals but jack works fine. Only took me 7 years to finally install the parts....

    I like your videos. Just one suggestion, buy some different diameter wire brush wheels to go on the battery drill. These can save you a lot of time and effort cleaning rusty threads. I even bought some cheap gun cleaning kits for they're small diameter wire bore brushes, great for cleaning nuts.

    I have no problem with people asking questions afterall that is how we learn, but, some could certainly have a serious look at how they ask their questions. When your way out in the outback and miles away from anything. When farm equipment is down it is a cost, it is lost productivity for that farmer. The cost is never the issue, if it needs fixed it gets fixed. What is the issue is downtime, lost productivity for the most part. Time lost can never be recovered only ever has to be made up. We seem to be developing humans who are all soft and moreso now with the PC correct movement... Have you ever seen the movie Wall-E... I sometimes wonder if that is how they want us as humans to end up... because they sure are trying their best to make it happen. Thanks for another really great video Warren. Hope you and your family are all safe and well :)

    John deere has pins to pull so that you can move the hitch arms around without parking the tractor perfectly. They have metal mushroom caps. Once hooked up you leave the implement down, back up, and everything locks in.

    I ain't been saying much cause you already forgot more than I'll learn in my second lifetime but wanted to mention that I had me a fifty gallon tank up under my service truck with water and soap for my little power washer. It wasn't high pressure or volume but it kicked most the nasty off most jobs and made my life a little easier. Most guys don't do stuff like that but I know my customers liked it. I didn't start no detail shop but when it comes time to get all the copper eaz and never seize off where I had it smeared all over. Like I said before, times have changed a bit, me, I'm 72 and I just make it as easy on myself as I can an oh I took my dog everywhere with me, even if I stopped for a cold one ... dog went too. He wasn't welcome well then my welcome wore off too. I bruised a few noses over rude comments that hurt his feelers/LOL

    Just started dealing with AMS some . Good service to Ontario. However I put a rebuilt pump in a Cx 225 Sr and the input shaft seal leaked immediately(@10psi case pressure ) They air freighted new seal for next day . When I took it apart to replace seal the oring on the bearing carrier was found to be damaged during installation. Maybe just a fluke but I do have to say they had good service even though they had no intrest in reimbursing for labour

    I order a lot of aftermarket parts but it isn’t without risks. Sometimes the quality isn’t as good sometimes the fit isn’t exact. And as you said there is time concerns also. As far as the knipex stuff that’s the only pliers that I buy. I especially like their cobra style channel locks. I have gotten stuff out with them that a pipe wrench wouldn’t get out

  • @TheJpsmith1996
    @TheJpsmith1996 Před 5 lety +1

    I believe that the two different sizes of cylinders was deeres way of getting different hitch lift ratings. You could have two 70 mm cylinders for one lift capacity, one 70 and one 80 mm cylinders for another capacity, or two 80 mm cylinders for maximum lift capacity. It was all how the tractor was optioned when it was new

    Some of those tractors had two 70 mm cylinders for 7725 lb hitch, others had one 70 mm and one 80 mm cylinder for 8925 lb hitch, European versions could be equipped with two 80 mm cylinders for 10,050 lb capacity hitch. Rockshaft between lift arms is plenty strong to keep unequal sized cylinders lifting in time. First time I noticed the size difference on the same tractor was while performing a PDI, tractor was fresh from the factory. That was the year everybody was worried about Y2K,
