It's refreshing to see someone admit freely to their mistakes or errors. These are things we can learn from. Teachable moments. Thanks for the video.
Wear safety glasses when using those press plates. HR plates are cast iron and can shatter. Invest in some scrap, 2" steel plates.
I would never be able to get it back together. Lord help you.
Try Yesterdays tractors for your gaskets and other parts. They have a pretty good inventory of stuff like that. Loving this project!
Hi Tyler, funny seeing you here, 😂, are you giving Evans pointers 😂
Hope your tractor rebuild is going smoothly!
I watched you tear the jubilee apart today. You got everything torn down pretty quick. Now, the fun part begins. Good luck.
And now back to your regularly scheduled program…. So nice to have you back in your element. The EcoFlow comercial was very disappointing, please don’t ruin your channel by monetizing with paid promotions. You guys have worked too hard to build a great homestead and channel.
Hey Evan, I get totally confused with 50 piece jig saw. I'm exhausted, and I only watched
Nice job Evan! Rear ends are the worst part of a tractor to get apart. Lots of grunt work.
Another trick you can use for removal. After the arm is heated you can apply dry ice to the shaft to make it shrink.
The gear you were concerned with the teeth on is the slider for 3rd/4th gear, and if it jumps out of high gear, the slider and input shaft will need replacing. This is the tractor just before the 160 , and I worked a lot on the 160's. Have had one apart from one end to the other. Agco owns the rights to Allis-Chalmers tractors and will supply parts and gaskets. When we ordered input shafts from them, it depended on whether or not they had it in stock as to the delay time. When they run out of stock, they wait until they need a certain number of them before they set up the tooling and run off a batch of shafts. Also, keep an eye on that shift boot. If it splits, you get an amazing amount of water in your transmission oil. Also, if you have a tractor supply franchise in town, they stock a lot of gaskets and tune-up parts for many tractors that are Agco parts. My brother reminds me that many of these parts will be labelled "Agco-Allis". Wish you good luck in parts finding.
I am having anxiety attacks watching this come apart. Praying Evan you will know how to put it all back together! So glad it’s not me having to remember the order. However I have faith you’ll know how. 🙏
Really enjoy these videos...it must be the nostalgia of the old tractors getting new life
You did a great job with what you had to work with. Thank you for posting.
Cleaning parts and pieces is always time lapse camera worthy.
Wow I’m sure Pete from Just a few acres would be a great source as he seems to have redone many Old Tractors, good luck on all.
The correct phrase when deciding to not go into something on a project is “that will be future stackshouse’s problem, not mine”
I use the phrase on some of my projects 😅
Scared me when you started to grind those welds out without your eye shield .Enjoyed the video.
Noticed that as well and also noticed he had one on later. Also, not likely to be a big deal, but my brother-in-law was a welder and had a stray spark get into his ear and it burned the eardrum, believe or not. He didn't lose the hearing all of the way, but it was affected.
30 minute video to take it apart to this point. God bless you cause it may be 12 hours of video putting it back together !
I'm really excited to see this tractor back up and on the channel. We have a Ford 3000 with a loader that last summer I had it all tor apart like that and went all through all it's issues. You can't stop those old tractors. No matter how big and fancy the main work machine is those little loader tractors are really handy on the farm
you got the shaft by the shafts ganging up on you, hey in the end you got the job done
One of the things I enjoy about your videos is the fact it does not always go smoothly or how you planned. That's real life like most of us are exposed to. Big job but a great experience. Carry on..... we all want to see how it all comes out.
Another great video. Look forward to seeing the tractor finished.
Watching you remove these parts was EXACTLY what I would have done (cutting those welded brackets, etc.), and ESPECIALLY the sequence and methods you used to remove the lift arms. It confirms my efforts follow some semblance of logic others use, too. LOL. Well done, Evan.
DJ’S tractor parts is a great source for old Allis Chalmers tractors! That’s where I find a lot of aftermarket parts that looks as good as original.
Over on Cog’s farm,Jason was just gifted a 1948 Ford tractor by his grandfather. He is so happy,he’s beside himself. Thought I would tell you such an interesting gift. Looks like you are getting some inside jobs done since you aren’t able to work outside. God bless you and Rebecca,sending my love.
I saw it. His grandfather's Ford tractor looked nice.
Another glowing example of why cheap and dirty is rarely the way to go. What on earth was the purpose of welding that plate across a joint of two major assemblies? Your mechanical aptitude has certainly served you well on this project, Evan. I'm confident in the end the old Allis will be good as new if not better!
I like these tractor videos.
Awesome job, great gift your doing a great job
Evan, there is a young man on. You Tube named Braydon Bowman that buys old AC equipment and tears them down and is an AC salvage supplier. He also sells gaskets for all of the AC equipment. You may try to look him up to help you source the parts you need to reasselmbe your tractor. Thanks for the great content you continue to put out for us to enjoy.
Although it looks like fun to work on I think remembering where everything goes will be a major challenge. Thank goodness for your camera.
Great job
You might want to consider a sandblaster or an automotive parts washer…cleaning parts can be a challenge also…use the technology to make the job easy.
I have seen them use sand blasting on antique automobiles. Really works.
That hydraulic press will make life a lot easier! Great gift.
Evan do you intend to re paint the tractor as it would be great to see it back to its former glory thanks for the great videos I enjoy every one.U.K.
I’ll bet he doesn’t have time but would love to see him do that !
Yes I do plan on repainting the back half while I have it apart. I plan to do the front half next winter.
@@CountryViewAcres That’s great Evan. Fresh orange will look great !
Wow!! People and any mechanical knowledge amaze me. All I kept thinking was how the heck is he gonna remember what bolt goes where? I, too, thought you should've pressure washed it first but you live and learn, right? That's what life is all about.
Have a fantastic weekend! Hi, Rebekah 👋
U should go on line its a classic tractor there will be some form of a owners club that will have upgrades and parts for these tractors
Great job on the Allis Chalmers, Evan! So glad to watch your successes. I truly love that you take the time to rebuild and not simply buy a new tractor. Oodles of work and busted knuckles, but the end results...WOW! My thanks to you, Rebecca and your farm for the entertainment you give this old guy...it sure brings back lots of memories.
BTW, another vblog I watch, Just a Few Acres Farm, Pete restores old Farmall tractors.
I think it will be easier to put back together as you will have cleaned up the parts getting rid of the muck clogging everything.
As I was watching I was thinking, it looks like that funnel was made for that exact task, thats great when things work out so smoothly, then "Ope!! I'm missin" 🤣😂 I appreciate that you show the good,.and the bad stuff that happens to us all on our journey.
Not so boring, I enjoy seeing how things fit and work together but I’m a shade tree mechanic type guy anyway! 🤪
God bless 🙏🏼🇺🇸
That's amazing. Just having an old tractor is nice. You can work on it is great because newer ones you need computer degree to fix.
Nuttin like a good challenge !! Boy, been their many times..Takes alot of perseverance. And You got it !! Keep up the great work, looking forward to the rest of the re-build..
Good luck 🍀
I enjoyed this video
I wanted to tell you Evan WHILE you had that hydraulic press loaded pulling that lever off, 15 tons of pressure is a lot of pressure and dangerous to deal with when it finally releases. But glad it turned out ok, you only got a loud pop and didn't get hurt. Thanks for the video.
Theres so much knowledge to gain watching yalls videos this is one of the greatest channels ive ever found i love all yalls videos i so look forward to getting to country view acres everyday
Some of the things you are doing, I want too be using safety glasses. That’s just me though. Thanks from St. Paul Minnesota.
Two days in a row. Sweet. Thanks Evan.
Can wait to see your next video!
@@alisciamarotta3888 thanks
Good work love watching your progress
For a safety backup you may consider wood cribbing up the center of the tractor just for incase the tractor slides off the floor jacks
If it wasn't hard it would not be worth doing! LOL!! Thanks Evan!
That was awesome. My 1962 WILLYS Jeep fought me tooth and nail the whole long way when I restored it
Heat that sucker up cherry red then dump a glass of ice water on it usually works great. Keep up the good work 👍
It good see back the Chalmers
Enjoy you videos. You might want to check with Pete on just a few acres, and where he gets his parts and gaskets from. Have a great weekend.
Good luck with this one, fingers crossed it gets easier after cleaning. It's going to look amazing when it's done. Love this project, reach out to Pete from Just a Few Acres Farm for any advise, he's restored several. 👍👍💚
Glad to see the shop baptized! Now you can get some serious work done.😊
Great job your the best keep up the great work love your videos thank you
I love seeing you tear this tractor down to fix it up. We are the keepers of the old tractors. Once they're gone they'll be gone. I hope my old 1957 Ford 850 will be passed down from generation to generation. Great work Evan! 👍🚜
Last time I changed my hydraulic fluid I made a mess like that lol.
18:38 you mention the wear on those to gears. They are the only ones in the gearbox that are straight cut gears so that means its reverse. Everyone in a hurry grinds reverse. The straight cut is why transmissions make whining noise in reverse and the helix on the forward gears is why they switched, no whine because of the longer mesh time. Great videos keep it up!
About time you got back to work on it if you don't have oil and oil dry on the floor your not doing it right
Or oil pads
Evan , the smartest guy in the room is usually the one who admits he is not so smart about some things . I have watched another channel called Just A Few Acres Farm that does complete rebuilds on some of his old tractors . I think he has rebuilt some Farmall's but he is extremely good . Maybe he has some good imfo , check him out . Good Luck with your project and can't wait for more .
35 years rebuilding centrifugal compressors on chillers . When removing gear housings cut the heads off of bolts and use for alignment. Always use a shaft protector with jaw pullers.
WHOOP WHOOP WHOOP!!! YES!! Working on the Allis!! Thanks. It has been so long I forget all the problems. I remember the brakes were a problem and I think the hydraulic pump may have been a problem as the loader wasn't raising very quickly. I'm pretty sure that I remember looking up oil flow specs for the TYM and the Allis and they were very similar. So the loaders should have been functioning at approximately the same speed. Clean out as much of that old oil that you can, I might even purge the oil from the loader cylinders. Get a wet/dry vacuum with a small hose and suck up the oil from the corners. I don't remember if the clutch showed symptoms of being worn or not. Your working through this tractors problems will be fun to watch.
hello from the Netherlands .
thanks for the video .
Sincerely Hollandduck
Well heavens, I should hope you can get that thing back together again there’s lotta parts of buddy good luck
It is a great thing to share that kind of experience with others whom now do not have to make the same mistakes. CZcams videos often make a job look much easier than it really is. Thanks for sharing.
Your brave for taking this on. You must like puzzles. I've seen you take this apart on a prior video. I would be overwhelmed by all the parts removed and keeping everything organized. This is not something I would ever feel comfortable tackling, but it's entertaining watching you do it. LOL.
Good on you... we'll done. A workshop press for Christmas 🤯 i really to drop a hint to my wife 😆. Stay safe 🏴
Pete a YTer on farming rebuilt and repainted his tractor. May want to watch what he did. He is in NY state.
@Justfewacresfarm
I hope you can remember how to put this ol girl back together! Lol! Great work!
Evan, thank you for the video.
You have the mechanical skills to tackle anything. There are no mistakes working on new equipment, only "Experience".
First oil on the floor, won't be the last.
Some spacer blocks for the press would be handy.
Best to You and Rebecca in 2023.
Stay safe.
Jon...
You can make some skates to put on the front in the middle of the tractor to roll it out to wash it
I’m a little surprised you didn’t seal the concrete floor as fastidious as you were with the build but maybe I missed that or reasoning. I’m loving the AC overhaul.
love your videos!! For me taking it apart is easy but putting it back together is a whole different story
Hole saws are good for making holes
Looks like you will be having some fun
Evan i love the channel and content. Please be careful with that portable hydraulic press. Those things are no joke when they release or the part breaks free. Having your hand anywhere near 15 tons is playing with fire.
You should be able to find gaskets from Steiner. I restored an Allis Chalmers CA and they have pretty much everything you need
Agree. Steiner's or DJ's. Both in Michigan.
Gasket maker is your friend! Tractor i'vve been rebuilding has no spare parts available. But it the silicone works pretty good.
Was great video lot of learning .lot of Patience .myself I am working with 1952 allis chalmer b.
Great video.
Nice job. Looks like the new hydrologic press is going to be very useful. It's looking good keep it up have a good day.
Wow, what a project Evan. Very impressed by your willingness and ability to take on this task. Great job.
Big job , nice shop
Hi, not sure that you will read this but DJS Tractor parts has the seals that you will need. Just select D17 and look for the lift arm housing seal.
I'm not at all a gear-head person, don't do mechanical work at all. But this is so interesting to me. Kinda like a gigantic puzzle that we get to watch you take apart and put together again. 😂🤣😂🤣 Thanks for the video, Evan!
Good job
YOUR shop is now CHRISTENED , you might drill a hole in the 3pnt arm to be able to put oil in except you will probably never take it off again, if it is hard to put back on put the shaft in a freezer then try it. ck the bearings in the differential they and the pinion bearings(shaft that drives the dif) be the most likely to have wear good luck and just take your time
Interesting first time I've seen one of these torn apart. You always learn from your mistakes. It will make it easier to put back together. Great video.
hi I hope you remember where all these pieces go, wow there are a lot, good luck
What a video. Thanks for sharing.
You're doing good.
There's a Farmer in upstate NY with just a few acres and he'll tell you; The issue with your tractor is; it's not the correct color red. 🚜
You should take your hydraulic pump to a hydraulic shop and see if they can get more GPM out of the pump. Speed up your loader.
You are one brave and talented sole. I would never get that thing back together in a million years lol....
When you have the metal hot rub candle wax on the pieces. The wax will go in between the pieces. Good luck
This was fascinating Evan. Even tho you may have taken the longer, harder road, it was really great to watch you figure it out and still accomplish the end goal. I feel like I've just taken a class in tractor maintenance. Well done!! 😁
Check out Steiner for parts, especially gaskets for your tractor year and model. You still may be able to slap together a dolly from scrap and roll what you have outside and pressure wash it. Be careful with that press now that you’ve convert it to air over…it’s easy to apply pressure too quickly, that thing will jump out and bit you quick. Good pr ogress to this point, too bad about the split shaft deal but hey you got it done.
I hope you keep that arm took off so you can put it back in the right clock order.
