Drawbar repairs on 18tonne Stewart trailer. Part 2
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 окт 2024
- Part 2 of taking the slack out of a Stewart trailer drawbar.
The pivots on the trailer are line bored out to 60mm. This is done by using a short boring bar coupled with a flexi drive to make up for the offset of not being able to get square on.
The drawbar itself is put onto the radial arm drill and reamed out to 60mm with a big reamer.
A new pin is made but with a grease hole down the middle so the middle pivot can actually be greased.
The tailgate ram is removed and new ball joints are installed.
The drawbar is then refitted with a well greased pin and the last job is to refit the tailgate ram.
Hope you enjoyed the video.
Thanks for watching

Your ingenuity, problem solving and descriptions of your thinking about the task are exceptional. I’m fine with the head cam as it must make your work more efficient. Thank you for sharing your interesting work and fine skills with us.
Merry Christmas Oliver and your family, and to all your viewers who know great content when they watch it. Thank you mate for the great videos, looking forward to more next year.
every problem has a solution ... keeping the approach simple .. you don't create new issues ...very clever
You are a genius. I really enjoy how to solve every issue you come across and maintain a very high standard of work
Appropriate use of head cam is very welcomed! Love your content.
Merry Christmas and Thanks!
Thank you! Merry Christmas!
Many thanks for putting my mind at peace with those extra props.
Thanks for 12 months of brilliant content Ollie. Have a very merry Christmas and an even happier New Year, all the best from Huddersfield.
I noted that your line borer was starting to get some surface rust, I found a rust prevention spray called Sta-bil Stop Rust which seems to work very well. The UK distributor is in Dewsbury just do a search on the above name, they will be in the top 10 results for the UK.
Here’s a little deposit towards the grease gun. Merry Christmas and thanks for the great content.
Thank you! Merry Christmas
In an ideal world a ( karen ! ) would be nice , but the head cam is a good compromise when working on your own , really enjoyed your videos this year and appreciate the work that goes in to making them , keep them coming , all the best for 24
As usual, Oliver, great content and ingenious solutions to problems cannot believe it`s twelve months since you started the channel, I don`t think the North Yorks farming community realises what a gifted engineer they have amongst them, looking forward to watching you in 2024, all the best Oliver.
Oh we do!
That`s nice to know Andrew, all too often people like Oliver who do their very best for the customer go unnoticed and unappreciated.@@SpudSlingsby
You do not under estimate Danger in loosing your head or Decapitation ,stay safe you genius of Engineering Skills , & work Ethics ,from Cork City Ireland😊😊
Job well done, Oliver. ⭐️
Thanks Oliver for the content in 2023. Merry Christmas.
Best wishes for 2024.
Another great video. Congratulations on 1 year and Merry Christmas
I'm sure that Ollie is already aware that the grease he applied to the draw bar pivot is more than likely the last grease that will be applied before the next repair on that trailer... But hey-Ho, the lack of maintenance on this sort of equipment will keep a good job-shop like Ollie's in business for a long time. BTW I now have to go back and watch all your earlier content, including manufacturing your shop-made line boring kit. Merry Christmas Ollie
Its not much but a little help for your power grease gun. Thanks for all the videos. Merry Chrismas and Happy new year!
Thank you! Merry Christmas!
Thanks for sharing your work Ollie, you work to a high standard. The head cam should be used sparingly, not a fan of the quick movements. I'm like other comments, feeling a bit seasick if it's used for a long time.
All the best for Christmas and the New Year, Brian from Sheffield, South Yorkshire.
Thank you for the time and effort u put into the videos this year. They have been so good. I'm looking forward to next year's videos
The head cam works as you don't have a camera crew like Curtis, really like watching you both working in completely different circumstances 😊
Another awesome video Oliver.
Merry Christmas and happy new years, from kiwi land l.
Congratulations on completing your first year. Enjoyed every minute. I'm looking forward to next year.

👍
Nice one Olly,looking forward to your happy smiley face again in 2024
Ignore the youtube safety crew, most of them couldn't handle what you do anyways.
Right. I'm sick of these guys with zero practical skills giving safety advice to all and sundry.
Re headcam, slow down your head movements or we will end up throwing up. That particularly applies when on fast forward. In fact fast forward and headcam don't mix. Understand headcam allows you to do the work faster without having to set up camera in many and various static positions but if the aim is for the viewers to be able to enjoy what you are doing, then with deliberate and slower head movements and no fast forward headcam, our stomachs will be much happier. Otherwise well done for this year. Your work is excellent, attitude is understated but at the same time confident and as others have said your problem solving skills are second to none. From Land Down Under.
Another good two parter !
Love the homemade line borer , love all the fab !
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Go and have a mince pie 😁
Thanks Oliver…love the content 😊
Perhaps if a customer could watch a video of their repairs they would appreciate the invoice. Assuming of course the level of professionalism you offer.
Merry Christmas n Happy Holidays Oliver and your Family 🎉
Really nice vid 👌🏻
Merry Christmas 🎄🎁 Oliver take a day or two for yourself and reflect on all your achievements.
it was good to see that put in extra safety point.....best wishes for 2024😎
Thank you for a year of entertainment, interesting, informative and educational videos.
Merry Christmas to you, your family, friends and subscribers. Wishing you all a Blessed, healthy, joyful and prosperous New Year. Stay well be safe and have fun. Greetings from NE rural Ohio, USA 🇺🇸
This man is gifted
Christmas present has arrived, all the best Oliver
Thank you for welding the safety bar 😊
Sometimes those simple jobs turn out to have pretty complicated solutions. They’re also the kind of jobs where some would hurry through just to get it out of the way. It’s good the way you took the time to make a reliable repair. God’s blessings in the new year.
U are an excellent welder Ollie. Nice traces.
Head cam is a little bit challenging but if that’s what it takes to get us in on the action.
Partly we will get used to it and partly you will lear to mooch your head more slowly 🤠
It’s all good!
Another great video Oliver, Merry Christmas to you and your family...! Cheers from Canada...
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Thank you for sharing, always a pleasure watch your project,I learn a lot 👍👍👍👍
It's the ability to adapt and solve the problems these jobs throw up, that sorts the men from the boys. Thanks for posting and have yourself a merry little Christmas🎄
No problem with the head cam for me. Appreciate that you are a one man business, whatever works for you.
Happy Christmas.
Very happy to see you are taking safety measures, it’s been so many workers killed in accidents on the job 2023 here in Sweden so I’m more aware than ever. Happy Holidays!
There’s been a truck mechanic and a tractor mechanic killed in my area in the last few months, makes you realise now quick things can go wrong.
There's been a lot of people killed on the streets in Sweden too...
But that's what you get for allowing "EU" quotas to fill your country with third world riff raff...
Enjoy
Mr Snowball, I really appreciate your way of finding solutions to situations! Simply impressive! Thanks!!
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
It has been a good year! Merry Christmas.
Thank you for all the posts on a deservedly growing channel. Happy Christmas.
The head camera gave us a good view of what you are looking at, but a tip is to try to remember to turn your head slowly. I was OK with it, but some people get seasick if the motion is too quick from side to side.
Another excellent video.
good job. thanks for your time .hope to see you again soon.
Love watching what you and your amazing talent can accomplish Mr Snowball
Nice job with your self made line borer and flexidrive!👌💪
Definitely one of my favourite channels.
Merry Christmas. Great channel, enjoying watching 🌲
Feliz Navidad saludos desde Argentina
What a craative mind you have sir! thank you for sharing all of it.
The head camera view is good, though obviously it can be bothersome with it moving so much. Most video editing software can stabilize a video clip. Only takes a few minutes to let that run and your head cam footage would be excellent.
Great stuff. Love the ingenuity on the flexi drive for the line borer. Also very impressed that you built the line borer yourself, I’m going to check out that post now. Happy Christmas and keep the content coming.
You have an uncanny ability for thinking through issues! I commend you on that talent!
You asked about the use of your head cam... It certainly makes for some good shots, but I would suggest using it sparingly as it may give some of us a bit of vertigo...
I like the head cam! It gives your videos a different dimension! Great work! Merry Christmas 🎄! 👌👍
I love how you have Mande your own boring machine, anything’s worth it if u save yourself some money, really enjoy your content!
Nice to see someone using good old fashioned callipers.
Merry Xmas, thanks for the vids 🎄
Merry Christmas from the USA....Excellent work Oliver. Adapt & overcome. Ready for a new year of videos. Thanks for taking the time to let us enjoy too.
Don't mind the head cam. It would make it easier for you but maybe consider editing out the jittery parts. Just a suggestion. Love your content, keep up the good work. Merry Christmas mate 🎄🎅🍻🇦🇺
Merry Christmas Oliver - wishing you further success with your channel in 2024.
Big reamers are awesome. SpaceX also used a very big reamer when they manufactured the steel plate for the water deluge system under the Starship rocket in Texas. There are some pretty cool video of that floating around.
Thanks for the video, have a good Christmas.
Merry Christmas and happy new year, really enjoy the channel ever since 1st found it
loc-n-lube absolutely the best grease gun connecter
That must have been really interesting, because the hour passed in no time. It's always interesting seeing the variety of jobs you get in and how you work out the best solution for those tricky jobs with restricted access.
More long videos please!
I love the line boring solutions you come up with, great work! I'm not a fan of the head-camera, too shaky for me. Thanks for the great content!
The contrariety between your work output and your appearance is something to be marvelled at. On appearance you appear scruffy and unkempt (not that clothes maketh the man) but the results you achieve are a fine piece of art. I think you are great and have recommended your channel to many people. 👍
"How you liking the head cam?"
Honestly, it's horrible, the picture shakes.
Greetings from Finland.
The head cam seems like a great addition! It gets us in close where a tripod wouldn’t, and without the sea sickness of handheld without a gimbal
You could use an old car Stirling drive shaft with small UJ to make drive shaft for your line boring device,good work
Absolutely enjoyed every one of your videos thanks for sharing your daily work with us
Enjoy your Christmas have a good new year to you and yours cheers
Perfect. Thank you for the videos.
Best thing I ever bought for greasing difficult spots is a Lock -N -Lube . It locks on the zerk and then you can pump with two hands. Lock-N Lube is $30 a cordless grease gun is $300. If your good I'm shure Santa can Squeeze it in. Merry Christmas. 🍻
thanks very much for posting the video. enjoyed watching part 2. hope you and family have a good Christmas and happy new year to you all
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you as well.
The headcam is a dizzying point of view. Still you are fun to watch on Sunday mornings. Thanks for your channel.
Well done man. Nice fix. Head cam works alright 👍 Thanks for the videos!
Merry Christmas, as we remember the reason for the season.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, Oliver and family from Canada
0 to 35k subscribers in a year. Wow. Very absorbing video as always. Thanks Ollie. Happy Christmas and new year to you. Mike
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas, congratulations on one uear of great vidos. Love watching you work.
Good strong fix. I can't believe they didn't bush those joints when the trailer was made. Those areas take a real beasting with a laden trailer going over rough ground.
The head cam is good once you get used to it. Good solution to the rebuild.
Merry Christmas Oliver and wishing for you and your family a wonderful New Year 🎄🥳🎁🍾🥂🎂🍰👊🏻
All the best for Christmas and the new year. I'm looking forward to your videos next year. 🙂🙂
Great job Oliver. Your ingenuity is amazing!👍
good job like the way you are able to figure things out
Great video awesome work, some tips on the head camera. I am fine with the head camera except for two places, at the lathe and when you sped up the video hammering. The first should be relatively easy to have a dedicated camera mount on the wall behind the lathe maybe with additional light that should make set up process quick and easy. And the later just don't use it while hammering something that makes the whole image shake and especially if you also speed up the video. I am all for increasing productivity while still making videos good luck and happy Christmas!
Nice one. Head cam's fine, whatever helps you to do what you do without faffing round the edges of your work. 😜
Milwaukee m18 grease gun, it’s the future 👍
Great job! Excellent work!
Great work , I enjoy watching you do you thing , and there is always something different and difficult,however you find a way to get it done, keep up the great Work regards Andy Perth Australia
Busy workdays may be the reason for needing a shop tidy up? I know too well how that is
Merry Yule season and a prosperous New Year Oliver, looking forward to more videos, head cam footage whenever you feel for it
Content and editing are more than enough to wait for more
Headcam: good in some situations, but far from always. I tend to be a bit sea sick when you use at all times.
Great job as always!
