    Another big step! We install parts that have been waiting on the shelf for, TOO LONG! Finally the radiator cap gets installed. Overall, progress continues on the 1939 Cat D4 / RD4 agricultural crawler with a D4400 diesel engine. 4G9986 "Lil Lefty" has never been so much fun and fulfilling. I hope you enjoy the shop talk, banter and commentary.
    We are operators pretending to be mechanics!
    Thanks for watching!
    Regards,
    Aaron & Greg "The cleaner"

    That rad cap sure is a heavy duty unit. Nice job on the gasket!

    Shake hand with danger notification lol.
    Now I know why in some of your videos , I heard that but it wasn't in spots that you usually use that. 🤔
    Explains a lot lol 😅

    Can't find the right bolts? On my current project I have brought zip lock bags to put the bolts in on disassembly and label where the come from with marker pen. Hopefully this will mean the right bolts for each component will all be easily found on reassembly.

      @lifeafterourloss  Месяц назад +4

    You would be better off to use Cat red rubber sealer than the blue stuff

      @lifeafterourloss  Месяц назад +1

      I will see if I can get a tube for the future, thanks for the tip. 👍

    • @lifeafterourloss
      @lifeafterourloss  Месяц назад

      Would you happen to have a part number for that sealant? Think I'm going to pick some up.
