whoa that's a fancy dark titanium impact you got there. New truck, new impact? Elmer over here making moves eh?
Real G’s move in silence like lasagna 😂 🤫 thanks man.
Instead of beating on the axle hub, Yale/Hyster has spots were you can run the bolts into to pull the axle hubs out.
You’re 100% right. I noticed that as I finished the second side. Good catch.
Full watch Party this morning at the Office! Nicely done
What an honor! Thank you Josh!
24:13 OH DAMN YOURE THE MAN ELMER!! We gotta send you our new hat crew pack!!
awesome work yet again and very detailed. 👍👍definitely need one of those impact drills though for real! waiting patiently for that truck tour lol 👍👍
You are the MAN! Make more videos get a patreon bro you be a hit
I have a patreon 🤘 link in the bio
Keep doing these videos man, I’m still learning and your content is a gold mine of information. Practical application gold. Thank you!
I appreciate the support brother! I got lots of content coming soon 🔥🙏
Can’t wait! Been watching your videos all day, just found your channel. Best out there for real!
LOL around here we call brake jobs just bj's so I couldn't stop laughing throughout the first minute and a bit of the video hahahahha
😂😂😂😂 I wish I would have known this before filming. I used some poor choice of words.
Good content, as a fellow plant/forklift fitter watching from the UK i enjoy your Videos. Keep it up 👍
Thank you, Chris! 🙏
Instead of hammering the axle out there are two threaded holes offset to allow bolts to push the cover out. It's a lot easier.
@@nathanmack5514 you’re right 💯 i noticed that a little too late
When you find out that brakes can be purchased back plate full assembly then your day gets way better🎉
@@bravodad62 where do you buy that???
Good stuff man, been watching these as I’m starting as a Crown tech in the next month. My only recommendation is to wear just anything to cover your nose and mouth when dealing with brake dust. I’ve seen what that stuff looks like under a microscope, and I don’t mess with it. I use a 3M respirator rated for Asbestos handlers.
Very good point! 👍🏼 thank you!
Elmer is making moves 👀🔥🎥
Great video bud ,keep'm coming!
@@Terry_Baker thank you! 🫡🙏🏻
Only recommendations are anaerobic flange sealant and using a reverse bleeder will make it easier to one man bleed the brakes
I always use brake cleaner 1st then blow it out,less dust to worry about
Smart move. I’ll try that next time.
I work for mhs. Great company . .imma road tech
Nice! Yes, they are great people. Tanner is the man.
Is it worth it getting into forklifts? How much do y’all make yearly? I want to leave construction and small engine repairs. I don’t want to go back to automotive.
@@ericmorales3146 I truly mean this, it’s the best industry to be in. It’s the perfect in between, automotive and construction/heavy equipment. I think you’ll enjoy it, it’s not always fun but it’s very rewarding. You earn depending on experience, proficiency, and dependability. Be dependable, don’t be afraid to go to a difficult service call, and always be willing to learn.
Good job.
Just watch out contamination
Thank you 🙏🏻
I find anaerobic sealant does a pretty good job for axles as well.
Very good point. I use that as well with other components, but never on axles. I’ll give that a try next time. Do you use the loctite brand or a different brand?
Me personally i use the Permatex brand works pretty well, i use it alot when im re sealing drive units, drive motors etc! Btw love the videos man
@@dannyperez9917 nice! i appreciate it Danny.
Official hyster is to use loctite 515 but
@@lewisdonald766 I have some 515. I use that next time for sure!
Even us hyster guys hate wet brake systems! 😂
tell me about it 😂
I lern with you 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
hi..i am kehinde Ojo. I sent you a mail. I am a forklift technician and i just move to UK. I need your guide me
👍👍👍
Where can we send you personal messages i have a tool suggestion for you but its better to show you a picture than trying to describe it lol
My instagram! Check my links on my page
Why dont you use brake clean to mitigate all that asbestos dust. You just thats a bad practice your learned with the blower and dust amd no mask. Gotta look after your health my guy. Your young now but all that catches up to you
@@time2getitstr8 very good point 👍🏼. I’ll keep that in mind.
Those axles have two threaded holes that you can run the same bolts into to pull the axle right out. Also, when the brakes can be "pumped up" that usually indicates air in the system and/or the shoes need adjusting out.
Yes sir! 👍🏼 you’re 100% correct. Thank you for catching that.
