@@Bothsides0305 you would have to call hydrogear to get the kit part number that matches your transaxle. I will say though that the few I’ve done have been all the same kit but had diff model numbers

@PeckerheadFixesIt thank you my case broke so bought a new one will be first time doing it was off a concrete track buggy.

@@prevost8686 the transaxles are very low to the ground and exposed so I’d say yes. We had it happen once from going off a curb with a mower and another time from a deck stabilizer breaking and hitting it.

@@dalechalkey3729 if there is fluid in the transaxle and it’s all the way to the top you won’t be able to fully seat the seal.

@@jw-bu8pr I’m pretty sure you can not do that but I have not tried

Watch starting at the 37 min mark. It looks like you might. Try to get a good grip on it and see if it will

@@brianpayne5729 yes there was a snap ring but not the type you use snap find players with. I used two small but sturdy flat head screwdrivers

This grill is 510x140x165 Model TK-514 I purchased through eBay and received in about two weeks

I bought some solid wire for this but the chart on my welder says that the fluxcore penetrates more. I am thinking about buying a stick welder for when I have to weld thicker material. You think that a larger mig is a better choice?

I did extend it. Ran this machine all week. Weld held, no leaks thus far

The handle pivot still squeaks

You got something better to do cletus?

Honestly this was about 15 min

@@PeckerheadFixesIt still couldve been like 10 seconds

Wd-40 pushes water out it doesn’t stay in there and keep it lubricated.

15 minutes, good for three years

The point is to get things fixed with regular tools, not highly specialized tools

@@williamzaparolli8874 Hi. I’ve had this compressor since about 2007 and this is the first time I’ve had to work on it. All air compressors accumulate water on the inside because the air gets hot as it’s compressed and then condenses into water as it cools in the tank. There is a drain at the bottom to let the water out. It seems like a leak would form before it would explode but I’m going to look into that.

@@williamzaparolli8874 I just watched a handful of videos on RUclips of exploding air compressors and they don’t look like they exploded from excessive rust. The only scenario that I can see this happening is the pressure switch failing to turn the compressor off and the pressure valve also failing to open. I feel the psi would have to go well beyond 100 for this to happen. It seems like a very rare fluke type thing. Water heaters do this occasionally also.

You’re trying to clean the rust out of the inside? Personally I would just leave it but you could remove the drain at the bottom and put some chain or bolts on it and shake it around. Another thing to try would be pour some evaporust in where the pressure switch goes. In either case you’d want to disconnect the compressor from the tank so you don’t get crud in it. Good luck!

@@PeckerheadFixesIt thanks for the tips man I have a question if you don’t mind im new to air compressors but is it possible if I get a coupler splitter I can hook up two air regulators for 2 machines im running ?

@@brunolandasantana5506 I think what you’re saying is that you want to use one compressor to run one thing at ~100psi and something else at ~50psi. This is definitely possible just put in a T so you can have two regulators.

@@jerrygreene7139 Thank you! The hoses are pretty strong so I don’t worry about them breaking but if the caliper keeps falling off sometimes I’ll zip tie it in place

Gotta love Harbor Freight for obscure tools youll only use once or twice

They had a groove worn in them, likely from the “brake grabby issue” this truck had the first year I owned it before I had it fixed

Nope

I believe there was about 1200 hrs on this motor when I recorded this. However it still did not run 100% after doing the heads. I had cleaned the carb several times so I bought an OEM new one and it runs like brand new now.

Walk behinds are good for mowing horizontally on banks but not going up and over the top. I was working for a landscape company, when I was in college 2006. I was mowing a ditch with a hydro walk behind and got to a culvert. I had to either turn around or go up and over. I chose to go up and over, when I got to the top one wheel slipped and the other grabbed and the mower turned upside down and landed back at the bottom of the ditch. My boss pulled out and got it up right with the truck. We let it sit for an hour before starting it, it ran but blew so much smoke you would have though the whole village was on fire. Fortunately I didn’t get hurt. As for cutting the whole cemetery with a string trimmer, no way! I’m pretty sore after just trimming around all the grave markers, getting old. Thanks for your comment

Hydro gear should sell just the hub. You have to call them to get the part number and then buy it from one of their dealers. If not I might have one.

Same for me. I cut it off!

Next time I will

As a knitter, I'd suggest really just let it soak without agitation, and stay down around 85°. It's a combo of heat & agitation that makes wool garments "shrink" because the fibers will shorten & stick to themselves (becoming felt if the process goes on too long). By letting it sit still for 20 minutes, you don't risk changing the size of the jacket. Then rinse it several times, until water runs clear. Baby shampoo is a really good thing to use on wool as well (no need for vinegar with that). Also best to dry flat so it won't sag. As the previous person suggested, wrapping it in a towel, or laying it between 2 towels & gently pressing on it, will help get water out. But good for you for experimenting & bringing your jacket back to life!

@@jimhallandcindymorgan3545 Baby shampoo is a good idea. Thanks for the tip!

It’s not hard to do and makes it run nice

Thanks for your comment. I am also in upstate NY. The clear fluid I had on hand because I got a good deal buying it in bulk, I typically have the blue stuff. I think that mixing them would be fine though. Spray on bedliner for the reservoir, this might work but the steel has to be really clean for it to stick and it can still rust from the inside. It would likely still need to be redone after 2 or 3 years too. To be honest, I am hoping that this was last year plowing. Theres not much money in it anymore and its hard to keep help when we don't have the work.

@@PeckerheadFixesIt We've had 4 slow winters in NY area near Syracuse. I've switched from being 50/50 per-time vs. seasonal customers to being nearly 90 percent seasonal. I actually don't pay any of the 9 guys who plow for me. I buy them a truck/plow for them to use year round, and I keep all of their plow income. I employ either retired guys who are either collecting a pension or SS; or self employed guys who control days and times of their employment. This keeps a truck payment off their credit report which frees all of their income for other activities.

@scooter12368 Thanks for the compliments. I looked on the web and a lot of general ford electric park brake related stuff but nothing specific to the Maverick. I was able to get into brake maintenance mode by pushing the ACCELERATOR pedal, pushing down on the electric park brake switch and turning the key two full positions to what would be the start position twice. To get out of brake maintenance mode I tried the same process but with the switch pulled up. When I did this it activated the park brake. I turned the key back to the off position and then back to on and it was out of Maintenance mode. I kind of did it on accident. What I read online about ford electric park brakes is that working on the brakes will trigger a check engine light that needs to be cleared but i did not have that issue. Its been at least a month of daily driving now and Ive had no issues. If you do pads but not the rotors, I am not if youll be able get them in without adjusting calipers. Depends how far down they are worn but it really wasnt hard to adjust the calipers. I am not sure what the message at 20:38 says. I dont remember and it cant make it out in the original video either but I have no engine lights on.

thank you for the information you sent me. that helped clairfy@@PeckerheadFixesIt

Any time!

Just over 40k

@@PeckerheadFixesItWow, that's low for a hybrid. Lots of freeway driving?

Yes. Mostly commuting to work

man i got one with 147000kms on it and its been ok just gotta do some evap work

I’m glad to hear they last that long. I really like mine and longevity is my only concern.

I did

I want to say less than 2000

@@PeckerheadFixesItmy new mower has 16 hours. I don’t cut grass for a living. I just cut my grass only. It’ll be many, many, many years before it sees 2,000 hours! I’ll be 40 this year and it should outlast me. I have a 2022 Hustler Fastrak SDX 60. It just made a year old. It has the ZT3400 transmissions.

Just make sure you change the oil in the transaxles periodically and you should be fine

@@PeckerheadFixesItat how many hours should I change the hydro oil & filters?

Hydro gear says first change after 100hrs and then every 400hrs after that.

Grasshoppers part number is 120048

We did not

Installer must have tapped into something the truck didn’t like

Everything is plug and play except where the main battery cables tie in and the small red wire for the controller.

1” bolt and 1” I.d. tubing

​@@PeckerheadFixesIt sorry if i missed it in the video, what material is the tubing made of?

It’s just mild steel. The whole plow is mild steel except the cutting edge I believe.

@@PeckerheadFixesIt That is what I figured, thanks!

Hey there. Pretty sure this is the one I used www.napaonline.com/en/p/BRG6203J I say at 15:58 that its part number 6203 which is a generic bearing number. I think any 6203 bearing that is not sealed will work. Good luck!

You could also call hydro-gear and ask for their part number if you want to be absolutely sure. Ive had pretty good luck getting support from them on the phone.

Thank you! Great video of the whole process.

It was worth saving $1000 avoiding buying a new one
