Those tools you have made proved their worth with those bearing removal and installation, just as we 'knew' they would. I always look forward to the next videos of this Farmall and Junior's, Cat D2 engines being rebuilt, great to watch the painstaking work being done. Thanks very much for your video presentations.
Afternoon, I found Squatch's video's on d2's this winter (2022) very much enjoyed them, then found your video's on the super m I enjoy them very much also, I grew up on my father's dairy farm, driving an 1940 Farmall H and a1950 M (still have the H).I am not an engine expert, but do have some experience on engines,( and totally agree with you on pulling in cam bearings)
I bought a lathe to make a cam (intermediate shaft but the same style) bearing install tool. My fist lathe and lathe part. Nice work! Great build series!
Good job Dad! You’ve proven that slow and steady trumps the bigger hammer theory. That’s the only way I would ever do it in the future. I predict she’ll run like a Swiss watch when you’re done. 😎👍👏
Slow and steady wins the race. Even if the initial tool wasn't used properly because the leaflet flew away, it's always good practice to drive these in with a threaded rod. These bearings are either very soft, thus easily deformed (this case, you can see all those raised spots, even past the neck, where the tool marred it, the shock crumpled the center part) or brittle, and that's another can of worms, because if you install them with hammers you risk creating micro-fractures that you can't even see with the bare eye. Nothing replaces the all-thread and puck method, it was king ages ago, it remains king today.
THAT is a good tool. MUCH better than beating them in. I would have done the same thing (although I don't have the ability to turn out any pulling pucks). Essentially, it is like my sleeve puller on a smaller scale. GREAT job, Sr.!
After watching you install the cam bearings with you with the tool you made I have got to have one . Looks a lot better then any cam bearing tool that I have ever seen . Thanks very much grate job sir.
I love these videos! My father owns 2 super Ms we use to launch our boat and jetskis. The dual tractor takes care of the boat and the single tractor does the skis. They live an easy life but should one ever need a rebuild I know exactly what videos will help me along! Thanks squach and senior squach keep it up!
Damaging that bearing was a mistake anyone could make. Mistakes are lessons learned. Thanks for showing us. I've always heard a wise man learns from the mistakes of others. Great video!
trailrider 01 Agreed. Three beers and Chinese dinner for two will cost ya $35 bucks so banging those bearings was just a minor blip! Love all your vids, Sr. Kudos👍👍👍
I never drive cam bearing, I do the same thing as you, only difference is I use brass. Have lots of different sizes from water pump rebuilds. Its very easy to machine. Might want to pickup a ratchet wrench though!
INcredible detail and easy to follow. Would you consider doing an H and an M rebuild for someone else? Have a C that really needs attention, but not sure it would be worth it.
i like this method to install vs whacking them in. more precise it looks. but in the event you misalign the oil holes, then what? take it out and try it again?

Its a crying shame that you guys dont have more subscribers. Your videos are so calming to watch and even more informative. Cheers from Missouri.
Senior, The time spent on tools and jigs really pays off with ease and quality of installation. You did a top notch job on this one!

There's an old adage that goes something like this. "Experience is directly proportional to equipment / parts ruined".

Probably the smartest and safest way to remove and retrieve camshaft bearings.
Really good tool. Good work!
He should paint the engine
@@maggs131 I think he will - he isn't Jr! ;)
I agree i never liked hammering in bushings, always liked pressing them in, nice work!
I like the electrical tape on the lobes so you don't damage the bearings when fitting the cam.
THAT is a good tool. MUCH better than beating them in. I would have done the same thing (although I don't have the ability to turn out any pulling pucks). Essentially, it is like my sleeve puller on a smaller scale. GREAT job, Sr.!
One step closer to running!!
Sr., your wisdom is golden. My attention is astute.
Looking good Senior Sir!!!!
After watching you install the cam bearings with you with the tool you made I have got to have one . Looks a lot better then any cam bearing tool that I have ever seen . Thanks very much grate job sir.
Thank you for the video.Appreciate seeing how you are rectifying the buggered up bearing.
Excellent instructions

Beautiful work Senior

Senior, really interesting video. Thank you for the clear explanation of the way you solve problems too. Wish you all the best!
Hi Boss! Just a bit of hand fitting left. Definitely 'old school' and all the better for it. Cheers. BobUK.
Oh, the cost of education and now the rest of us will not have to pay the same price. Thanks much for the thorough explanation and demo.
Adapt an overcome really is ur motto and done with such precision 💪👍👍
Excellent.
I like it. The homade tools . The only way to do it . Thanks for sharing.
If I was only half as smart as Senior I’d be doin’ pretty good!
Glad to see you're moving forward again Sr. Looking good, stay warm!
Very nicely done.
Good job making the installer tools. It's coming together!
That was really slick congratulations.
Another excellent tutorial Senior! :-)
great work really enjoy watching
The castings were well made
Nice work Senior, that’s perfect.
Sweet! Forward progress is good.
Nice job Sr. Before you know it that old engine will be making that sweet old sound again.
Nice job Sr
Awesome video
FANTASTIC!!
INcredible detail and easy to follow. Would you consider doing an H and an M rebuild for someone else? Have a C that really needs attention, but not sure it would be worth it.
Excellent
that block is beefy especially down below...wide bearing surfaces to carry the load..the crank webbing extra beefy. this block is bullet proof
You got it now boss 👍
i like this method to install vs whacking them in. more precise it looks. but in the event you misalign the oil holes, then what? take it out and try it again?
Nice job
Another great video and tool. How do you keep all of your special tools organized?
Bearing scraper ? Never heard of that tool.
From the pourable Babbitt bearing days.
You lke it you love now you want to do more of it great job sir 👍😃😄😁😀😊😀😁😄😃👍
Have you ever put bushings/bearings in the deep freeze overnight before installing?
No effect for this application. Mass... there is none in the cam bearings, and lots of it in the block.
Well done Senior, is that threaded rod anything special or just plain old grade 2?
😊😊😊😊👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
isn't there a third major project you guys have going on, that hasn't had a video in a while?
x-231
When the hens away the men will play lol
Once you do all the hard work, do I get first drive? 🤪
Golden rule no.1: Never, never, ever use a swing press on a new bearing, and if you must, DON'T.
