    When I discovered Andrew Camarata's channel I thought this was the best you could find on RUclips, until it led me to your channel (When you helped him with the flipped crane) and now I know I struck gold. Your set of skills is out of this world for a young guy like you. Kudos for that. With the way you deal with problems, you inspire people like me to tackle things I would consider very intimidating until I see someone else doing it. Then I feel much more confident in my abilities. Thanks for everything and keep the videos coming.

    Jesse, I worked for IH in R&D as well as teaching in their service school in the late 1960 early 1970's. You brought back so many memories of back in the day out in all weathers removing and replacing those darn clutches and break pads. Also had a few final drive units go like you have on this machine. The IH had the same system and many of the same parts as JD used, made it more economically sound as if they kept the cost down then they could discount better terms to the customer. Changing over to hydrostatic gears and wet clutches was a dream come true for our service guys.. The best part with your video was at the end and my hands were still clean. Looking forward to your big journey on the metal hunt and where you found them as well as the finished product as I admire the way you always keep the equipment clean as you can whilst working on them and your paint finish is good too. Stay safe keep well and spend down time with the family.

    We used to sandblast and paint bulldozers, backhoes, scissor lifts, straight booms, cement mixer barrels and chassis, any type of heavy equipment. The prep work ( cleaning, de greasing,taping, protecting glass and cylinders) but the end product was always total satisfaction. Jesse I give you all the credit in the world. I can't wait to see the loader when it's all done. People don't realize how much is involved but this video will give them some insight. No I don't miss it. It's the filthiest anyone can do.

    About 10 years ago I had to replace one of the tensioner rollers on my Cat 322 excavator. To get the master link out, I removed a couple of grousers and made up a flat bar to bolt back across with a guide tube to hold the drift. Similar to what you did with the second track, but it bolted across the chains using the grouser bolt holes. When I had to replace the track chains a couple of years later I took every grouser off by heating each nut up cherry red then using an 8 foot extension on a 1” drive breaker bar, that way I could reuse the bolts.

    A lot to see in this episode of let's watch Jesse work his tail off but you were working in your new shop, not out in the mud and the elements. That alone was seeing a man enjoying the fruits of his labor. Just being able to use the cherry picker was worth the wait, not to mention being able to pick up items off of the concrete and not the dirt & mud. I had to laugh seeing the four buckets of muck that grew 4X, so thanks for that, and thank you for the video, we know that too is a major effort. I can hardly wait for your next one on this project. Best regards.

    I am a old man now and live in alaska. I worked in the southeast alaska islands and worked on heavy equipment for a good many years. Over those years found many pieces of equipment had some nice treasures, tools and parts that were still good or at least rebuildable. my biggest find was a Rolex watch in a bellypan on a track machine. Lucky for the guy who lost it and figured it gone forever was still working for the company so he got it back. There are some cool stories behind all of this that is boring for a most of the people and just too long to tell here anyway. The obvious thing is people lose stuff and don't know when or where they did and sometimes find it quicker to just go on. As a mechanic, I owned the very best tools I could afford and so some of my tools came from places just like harbor freight. As time went on and I built up my money, I went to all snap on tools. Now looking back was a mistake. Good tools don't need to cost a fortune. In other cases... spend as much as you can to get the very very best tool that can do a job right. Asking myself why fight with pulling those tracks off when you could of used a skid steer or even a pickup to pull them out from under this machine and then coil them up. Hind sight is twenty twenty. I do have a couple suggestions... as in when a machine is still workable, pour diesel in those dry clutches and let them work some of the issues out for you. Much easier to dis assemble. I also want to mention that rodents hate the smell of peppermint oil or peppermint anything. Spraying that oil under dashes and seats will help to keep them out of there. It won't harm metals or plastics, not offensive to people but the narely little mice might just give ya a break. Works in homes or machinery of any kind. I do believe that Case was a sister to this machine in those days. Different power units but many parts interchange. Don't forget a porta power is a friend when getting a quarter inch more room for taking out a sprocket ring. I learned a lot of tricks over many years of most now forgotten. Keep having fun doing what you enjoy. Noah is such a priceless child... heck they all are, he just steels my heart

    • @jmuller86
      @jmuller86  8 месяцев назад +3

      yea I just kind of wrestled those tracks because I wanted to see if I could. I had equipment to move them easily, just wanted to see if I could get the right touch to move them without hurting myself. My body never hurts from what I do, mainly because I have good posture, but also because I usually know my limits pretty well. Yea I gotta get a porta power one of these days

The works of final drives fixes were fun for him and just like you bought TD 21’s for parts.. Dad was in silver mining in northern Idaho and an operator took a dozer thru are overflowing creek and destroyed the final drives later the same guy blew up the motor.. Dad fixed it all and saved money on parts.. Later bought a bread truck for the motor that was the same one.. I was about like your kids kind of helping in the late 50’s and early 60’s..

    great stuff!. One suggestion would be to wash every machine to the maximum before you take anything inside the brand new garage :)

    Jesse I take my hat 👒 of to you.
    That's a complete rebuild and is a bit of work and money, but to tell you the truth I am enjoying the video to see what makes this tip of machine works is amazing.
    Looking forward to the next video thanks for the hard work buddy 👍 👍 👌

    its great too see older machines being refurbished, its better for the enviroment, cheaper, and of course the old true saying that they dont make em like they used too, older machines are made from better steel, last longer, have not electronics too cause issues, and cheaper too maintain.
    great video as usual Jessie.

    hello from Germany Jesse. once again a great video. I'm following your channel since a couple of years. I've seen a lot of videos on RUclips with heavy machinery like dozers, track loaders, excavators and other heavy machines. but none was neglected like yours. as you have an enormous number of skills I am sure that we will see a well working machine at the end. 🙂
    another argument: I have no problems to understand you though my career at school ended in 1973. expecting the next story on this machine Dieter

    definitely talk to Clint at C&C Equip. He can tell you the difference between a 450A or B model. And also can help with your final rive and brake parts. He has a great YT channel

    Brother that little tool you made to knock that pin out on the track would work a whole lot better if you bolted it to the chain instead of clamping it on

    Jesse, I have to admit your use of the English language makes me ponder. However you’re obviously quite intelligent and experienced. Your mechanical skills are impressive and obviously watching all your other video establishes not to judge a book by its cover! You make it all look so easy. Your explanations are always interesting and sound. As to why the way you do things! Thanks Brother!
