wow has to be a record for most wrenches used to replace one fitting LOL
LOL! I know. We tried em all. That was one stuck nut!
Shackles on the wrenches... best tip I've seen in quite a while!
This trick is "slicker'n owl shit". THANK YOU! I used a ratchet strap. I just wish I knew how to replace a simmons head to another manufacturer.. There are no simmons heads in my region since the suprise freeze last night..
I always appreciate learning something new from your channel. We have this style hydrant at our cabin I might need to work on someday.
*Keep on tractoring!*
Right on John. Thank you so much. I always enjoy seeing what your up to as well!
Awesome video brother. Love the trick with the shackles on the wrenches
Thanks Steve. Has got us out of many a jams. Hope your having a great weekend.
Thanks guy, from South Carolina!
Your welcome! Have a great weekend.
That was interesting. I'd never seen work done on one of those. 👍🏻
I had never replaced a head before. All and all it went pretty smooth.
Thanks Brian that was very informative. Take care and have a great rest of the weekend 👍
Your welcome Britt! Thank you and hope you and your family have a great weekend as well.
Lever hoists are amazing. I plan to get my next one on Tuesday.
They are pretty sweet. So many things you can do with them.
Another GREAT video boss!
Thank you
geeze....I bet he wishes he bought the better hydrant....Woodford baby!
Woodford for the win.
Thanks for the tips!
Your welcome.
Seems like I always run into those "pass me another wrench" jobs. It makes a person more creative in the long run. Great job on the video.

it would be nice to have one of those, but our frost line is too deep i would need a crazy deep trench to bury pipe.
They are pretty nice if you have a need for one.
Brian, ive seen a number of these at the scrap yard, and i suspect that some were the result of upgrades, while others that aren't very old, are probably because of new owners not understanding how and why they are important, particularly in the colder times of the year in northern climates. Some of them are also bent, which means a couple of things, like the hydrant wasn't seen when backing up, or maybe something caught the hose and it got pulled hard.
I could totally see someone hitting one with all kinds of equipment on the farm and not a bright color. Bet that’s the major issue.
Here in Western Washington State, what is the "safe burial depth" for water lines?
I plan on adding two "remote spickets" for my Garden and Memorial Garden so I do not have to constantly ravel/unravel my garden hose the 150' for Irrigation.
As I reside in East Port Orchard, WA I assume that you would know these details!
We have an 18in frost line. I usually bury lines at 2ft. Then at the hydrant itself go down another 1ft and put gravel in the hole to set your hydrant on that way it will drain. That is a lot of hose to unravel for sure.
I believe you can replace the rubber plunger at the end of the rod if not the whole rod assembly.
What brand and size lever chain hoist are you using: 5 ft drop 550 lbs? I need to get one for the stuck head on my hydrant.
I use dope tape dope tape dope. Just because i saw that once
What is the make of your come along?
It is Dayton
Husband broke it off of the little pipe in the center. Any hope of fixing it or do we need to dig it out?
of you have the manufacturer you can remove that head and the rod should still come out with it. If not is will be free floating in there. turn the water on and it will come one.
That doesn't look like the greatest valve. Why not just put a regular hose bib on it and get rid of the red demon?
Frost free yard hydrants are pretty great.
@@ThatFixItGuy Okay, I didn't realize it was for freeze protection. We don't use those where I live.
Painful watching you use the adjustable wrenches and the regular wrench in the wrong direction. 🤦🏻♂️
😂. I do it on purpose. You are no 764. Thank you.
