Why does it make me happy to see you working in your beautiful new shop ?
Hydraulic puller is definitely better than a torch and dry ice. Your project is near and dear to my heart. My father was a farm machinery mechanic working at an Allis Chalmers dealer. I use to go to the shop with him on Saturdays. Full restorations are expensive, but I would love to see the old girl dressed up again.
Great to see someone who doesn't have to have all the name brand stuff! I have a small farm in Australia and continually buy tools as I need them. Love your channel, keep up the good work.
Evan, when you take the parts out of the bath and rinse them, spray them with WD40. The WD stands for Water Displacement, a light coating of WD40 will keep the parts from rusting until you reassemble.
Drill a 1/4” hole at the end of each crack near the hub. Then gouge the crack on each side back a bit. Preheat drum to 400 degrees with torch. Braze the cracks
Even though this is not my type video, I found it interesting 👍 Seeing as you are tearing that tractor apart and all of the work you are doing on it, I sure hope you go the whole distance and clean it up and paint it. Once it's done, it will be a timeless classic ❤️
The AC D17. A fine piece of history. Thanks for showing us your restoration process.
I just know that I would forget what went into what when putting it all back together! In the end, experience is a good teacher!
I enjoy both of the old tractors and this series. Fun to watch. God bless
As I have said before, it amazes me how you are able to take apart and put back together everything that you do. Great job and I think any tool you need to perform these tasks is worth it. Have a Blessed day.
I appreciate your hard work and patience. You are not afraid to tear into something that you haven’t done before! Your a kind man!
It's amazing how many different tools there are! In my town here in the UK we have a large tool distributor, they supply auto mechanics to dental surgeons, they have 3 huge warehouses.
We think you do great Evan ! And we enjoyed your video working on thr Allis...keep sharing with us all of your adventures on your farm. It's a privilege to be one of your viewers ! Thanks from Michigan Evan and Rebekah.! 🙃
Dude, with all the toys you have, you absolutely need the proper tools to work on them, and that's why I enjoy watching you build, repair, and sometimes conjure up new and exciting content to watch. Nothing seems too difficult for you to tackle, nice going!
ㅍ
Pete from Few Acres Farm recommended your channel. Glad he did, you and the Misses are very interesting to watch!
Good tools are a must and if you take care of your tools they will take care of you. Love your shop, when you dream you have good dreams.
Patience, perseverence, resourceful, curious, creative, committed, WOW! Amazing, inspiring thank you. I fixed my dish washer today after much prograstination, or maybe needed sleep on it hmmm. All because of youzzz. I'll be 80yr old in sept. Love your channel. Get it done, whatever it is. Just do it,
Glad to see the update on the D17 and that you have found a way to get the stuck parts off.
Like Pete your another nice calm person ,please keep the prodjects comeing there’s nothing on mainstream tv worth watching ,THANK YOU and Rebecca for what you do , WCL
AWESOME, been waiting for an update, looks like it went well. I always look forward to see your successes.
them pullers always come in handy maybe the other tractor will need it too
The great thing about new projects is the new tools you get to buy 👍
Great job Evan, glad the new tools helped you out. You'll use the parts cleaner more than you think. That will be the most used of the newest tools. Had to go back through and copy the welding bench build after watching today , it's awesome too. Stay safe and keep up the great job you're doing. Fred.
Hey Fred!
Amazed at how hard you and Rebecca work starting your farm from scratch.
@jay west, they do work hard. Imagine what it was like before modern conveniences using all hand tools and horses.
I really like that you will take on a project and solve problems while learning without fear. So fun to watch you.
Some nice tool additions! That'll help a lot. Your shop is really coming along nicely. I'm always adding tools, seem to always need something new for every project or repair. Nice video!
Great video,that tractor was made too last,good job Evan.☘️👍👏🇨🇮
Admire your determination
I was saying to myself, 'hydraulic puller' and sure enough you had one and a great video of it in action. I took a screenshot of it and sent it to my brother in New Brunswick as this is one of those tools he could use or even fabricate. Just great. Loved this video Evan!
15 ton puller worked awsome, have a blessed day bro
I will never understand it but I sure enjoy watching this old tractor come apart and get cleaned up. How awesome it will be to watch it go back together. GOOD LUCK
I always love buying new tools
Spent the beginning of my 45 years as a tractor mechanic with an Allis Chalmers dealer. Love these tractors.
It's amazing how much easier having the right tool for the job makes things. Problem is, usually the right tool is really expensive and more than likely you'll only need it that one time.
A few months ago my 1940 ac-b finally got done with restoration. Just a little problems to fix. I know the struggles.
You can never have too many tools & you will always need the tool you don't have.
i like watching u repairing the old Alles
At this rate, Evan, you can have a side business restoring old tractors when you retire from the chemical plant. You're going to have all the tools and a great shop to work in. "Bring 'em in crusty. We send 'em back trusty!' 😜
Best videos on youtube. Great content.
I love seeing you work on this it reminds me when daddy used to do that kind of thing. I love your shows
I was a tractor mechanic for many yrs now i cant do it anymore cause my body has gone to shit !! It is good to see someone doing there own wotk on these things. Most people if they cant set in the pickup with a/c on they wont do it !! Tools are a wonderful thing to have, if you use them alot you will find its best to spend lotsa money on them with warrenty the good 1s break but not near as easy as the cheap 1s. Doing a good job !! The cuse words will help more then anything besides using a big f hammer !!
I love to watch right-handed folks get stuck doing something left-handed. I often wonder if it occurs to them what everyday life is like for folks like me stuck in a right-handed world made almost exclusively for the righthand. Lefties have to invent workarounds for almost all of the time, on almost everything, almost every day that righties simply take for granted. Even when we find a lefthand option it often comes at a premium price wise. I got hooked on your video a while back on Facebook, but I switched to CZcams. I've been in Kansas since 2011. Before that I had 30 acres of timber near Carlinville, in Macoupin County Illinois that I was homesteading. Guess that's why I love what ya'll are doing. That timber is the one thing I'll always miss about Illinois!
We have that exact washer but in red, and it has been in use a lot, its one of the better things to own despite that its cheap, it works! And boy, if I knew that this puller existed, it was amazing, I def will need one of those in our toolbox here at our place! Thanks for showing us that one, for sure amazed!
thanks for the education. the hydraulic puller is something new to me.
Great vid Evan! Love watching you work on the old equipment and bringing it back to life.
Good job when you get done with that d17 I'll bring mine down there that'll save me from buying all the tools that's just a joke bud I like watching your videos and yes I really do have a d17 it's actually quite nice not as nice as yours is going to be when it's done but it's decent thanks for another good video I like watching your show you're pleasant to listen to, not all hyped up trying to impress everybody pretty much a square Joe
Getting the right tools makes things so much easier. They will come in useful, just not every day.
I agree with u evan ,the old tractors are work horses and still going strong with some tlc,they dont build nothing 2 last these days xx
Mate your doing it the hard way. Cold chisel through the cage. Spread the cage and dump the rollers. If you can, sling it up in the air of a beam or small crane with the shaft dead vertical. Using your heating torch with the flame up as high as it goes, heat the bearing while gently rotating the housing. Bearing will fall of the shaft on on the ground. No special tools needed. Only own a few pullers for specialty jobs. Been working on big dozers all my life. Good luck.
Thanks for the insight, eventually I'll be setting up a shop, so your experience serves me well.
Keep up, I'll stay tuned.
WOW That puller set worked excellent Evan! It sure let loose with a bang! Now the fun begin's fining all the parts!
I used to have a set of 1" drive sockets, breaker bar. It went to 3" I think. When we were farming we used them a little bit but most of our repairs were in the field. I've got a neighbor next door to me now that restores old tractors and he's got all the bigger tools that I used to have. He takes his tractors to parades and shows.
My dad had a d-19 when i was growing up i loved that tractor. That hyro puller really works nice im suprised it worked that well for price. You will use that puller again it my be 10 yrs but itll come n handy plus your nabors will borrow it because most are to cheap to buy there own stuff. You did good !!
Great job on the tools.
Those axel housings are
"Finger Mashers"
You did good keeping your hands safe.
Always enjoy your videos.
can never have too many tools. i hope the better half is ok with it
Using high pressure grease out spindle makes it pull a lot harder at the same spindletorque. Quality pullers are often supplied with the correct grease during purchase
That shop looks awesome!
Parts washer brushes are great
Hi it nice to see you have the right tool,God Bless and take care.
It is always good to have the right tools when you need them and you will find you will use them more than you think and I can't wait to see the finished tractor. It will be as good as new and I like to see old equipment brought back to good working order.
cool . Hard work shifting that brake drum 😊
The right tools for the right job are very important. Can't wait to see the tractor down, thanks for the update great video
Nice to see new tools that work, great video
Always great to have the right tool!
In the 70s - 90s my dad was a tractor part scrounger. He would call all over the USA getting parts for customers. He was a terrible mechanic, but he could find the parts and he loved it.
Propane bottle from Walmart for like outside grill and the hoses for propane works great. I used this setup when I cut up scrap.
Well done, your a determined man
You need a dead blow hammer for getting those gear boxes apart. The dead blow hammer is coated in rubber so no surface damage but very heavy and it's filled with sand. Gives a good solid lick that gets things moving
Enjoyed watching you use the hydraulic puller. You’ve definitely tackled some tough jobs with success! 👍
Dude, I thought that brake was going to explode, glad it didn't. good job.
My Gibson has cast iron drums inside also … like you I made “long” reach hooks to pull the drums from the axle, after cracking a drum I blasted and cleaned it so I could braze it before turning them. Brakes work good !
Been there before with my WD-45. I’ve got a couple new drums if you would be interested. Thought I was going to have to break the old ones to get them off. They were good enough to re-use. I used a big bearing splitter and a hydraulic cylinder to get them off. Stick the new ones in the oven on 300 degrees. They will slide right on.
Oh my gosh, Evan, I think I jumped more than you when the Brake drum broke free. I was thinking: "It's going to break!, it's going to break!" BANG!! That hydraulic Puller is awesome.
Good luck with finding the parts 🤞🏻
Nice work getting the drums off. I like you machine shop, I also could use a torch set too, I may have to look into getting one. I do have the 3/4" drive tool set with a breaker bar, their real handy. Thanks Evan, have a great day.
Quick prusal through the comments and I didn't see this. My guess is as a mechanic you already know this. When heating bearing, pulleys, brake drums etc, if you have access to Dry Ice, you can apply the Dry to the shaft causing it to contract. The combination of a hot expanded pulley and cold contracted shaft will usually break it free. You can also spray the shaft with liquid propane to cool it down. You just got be be a lot more careful with the propane.
Nothing like having the right tools for the job. Onward!
You are now entering the serious realm of heavy duty mechanic tools. Parts that haven't been apart for years can be very difficult to impossible to remove. You are doing a great job of applying brainpower over matter.
60's Wisconsin farm boy here. We had a D17 and a WD45.
The small bottle set is a good mobile tool. It's great to have both on the ranch.....
Right tool for the right job every time 👏 👍
great additions to the tool box, good one, keep safe...
Disassembly is always more fun than assembling. :-)
100% agree
Good fly info for cattle raising at "just a few acres farm"
Thank you very much. Greetins from Genth Belgium
The right tools make all the difference, great video Evan!👍🏻
Well done Evan
That was a good one - i jumped when it came apart.
It sure makes some jobs so much easier to have the right tools. For sure a necessity if you live on a farm and have equipment. Evan, you sure know how to do many many jobs. That saves the budget for sure.
3/4” socket set make excellent seal drivers!
Hello dont know what else to say but I'm impressed.... Evan I am impressed
There is some good off brand tools, they just don’t have the platform to get their name out there. I have bought a handful of cheap specialty tools from ebay that was off brand. All but 1 of them got the job done surprisingly well and saved me a lot of money from buying name brands. The one that did break, I modified it and it turned out rock solid for my next job. Good to see ya explore your options. 👍
I use 3/4 inch drive tools on my property all the time. you will find them very usefull. I recommend getting a pres for your shop 20 ton or bigger. mine is 40 ton and has saved my butt many times.
Nice job 👍 Evan
Just a bit of advise. You don’t need to heat the piece your trying to remove until it’s red hot. The key is just to warm it enough for expansion.
Getting it red hot could mess with the heat treatment of the shaft underneath too
The Victor wrench has saved the day for me more than once.Very good video 👍
As long as you have the right tool anything is possible. I actually thought before you said that you would need to strap it down.
You must be very smart to know how to use all those tools
Awesome video and the new tools are great. The old tractor doesn’t want to come apart easy but will look and run awesome once your finished with it Evan
Must live near a HARBOR FREIGHT👍
An easier way to get bearings off, is to cut roller cage, remove rollers, score the race with a cutoff wheel, hit the score with a chisel and hammer. The race will crack and slide right off.
I was thinking the same thing. With that much heat into the shaft, the temper can change. It could make it soft and/or a localized affected zone that could cause a fracture.
