A couple of gussets in the four corners will add a lot of strength and shouldn't interfere with your pan removal. I saw one stand that had rails on the bottom as well as forklift slots to pick it up as one piece. The engine was way up there, but looked strong. You needed a whopper of a forklift to pick up the whole unit.
Mr PayDirt that’s not good, I was marvelling at the power of the big girl until the unspeakable happened, can i hazard a guess what you said rimed with clucking bell. One positive at least it happened in your own yard. Cheers mate.
I'd weld some small gussets in those corners. But everyone tells me , I over build junk. And what's with the start of the slot hole, going to roll that crane in there and bury it?
Did you look at the Cauldwell Model 17 lifting beam? It is two channels back to back with adjustable bail and a model with 5 ton rated cap. This looks like the one in the Cat manual to me. Maybe the Cauldwell catalog would tell the height of the channel. Did you get any information from the people that make the polymer soil stabilizer? Would this stuff work on your runway?
Blind as a welders dog. Weld a nut on the end of a piece of flat bar the right length and hold that in the end of the tube. Screw the bolt in and there’s your dinner, as Taryl would say. Jeff
LOL did you have to disturb the carcasses and radiation storage to build a pit for the D9H? could it not pick up second hand electrical problems while you remove the engine?
Sure you don't want to upgrade that old welder? New ones have all the digital readouts, Bluetooth, apps and all the bells and whistles a modern man like yourself craves. Very tempting, huh...?
Jeff - I love your channel, but Don't put the engine on that stand without angle braces... Just being selfish... I want to see more of your videos! Be safe, not sorry!!! Right angle butt welds ain't going to cut it...
Jeff, please don’t put that motor on there without doing some more welding. I hate to say it is going to be a bad if you are under that engine and it shifts tal machine install.and I worked on a lot of dozers hi sorry I am prayer for your life 10:31 it should be made with 4to5 in I beems gusses then drill and bolt that mother down so things don’t shift over kill is better the n getting killed
Thanks for the replay of the test run!
Mr Griffy was so disturbed by the welds he saw, he had to go lay down under a tree. 😂
Binged watched up to here on 11/22/23 that's a reminder to me because i am too stupid to remember.
I was hoping you’d weld a few gussets in.
I just freakin’ LOVE gussets.
@@localcrew Gussets and me go way back
What's a gusset a fat gal and her cousin

Yes gussets are needed it'll fold apart
Too bad You let the Majik Smoke out.
You've enough to work on. Thanks for sharing Jeff. Best Wishes.
is really liking your D9H series
The Japanese and Chinese learn something from that tractor
Your boys will have to finish wearing out that old Lincoln if they live to be old men. Hands down the best
best series in a long time - great entertainment - thanks dude
Glad you enjoy it!
Great video Jeff looking forward to your next video stay safe Jeff and Mr Griffy.
Another enjoyable video bro. Safe travels. Ken..
Hope Mr. Griffy does not get burnt eyes. I heard that dogs can not get burnt eyes. I would add some gussets in the corners.
That snot bad welding!
oh know!!
Great video thanks for sharing
"diagonally parked in a parallel universe" 😉
It's pretty........ Hope Mr Griffy, liked the gloss, he sue hated the welding!
A minute in to the video and Jeff is laying down on the job
Mr Griffy needs a wee doggy welding mask!
Uh oh! Coolant hose blow?
Mr PayDirt that’s not good, I was marvelling at the power of the big girl until the unspeakable happened, can i hazard a guess what you said rimed with clucking bell. One positive at least it happened in your own yard. Cheers mate.
I would be triangulating that.. at the minimum, some big gussets
Better push out a bigger hole. By the time you fill it with all that snow coming your way soon. Be no room for the body's.
I wish you had my M816 wrecker. It would easily pick up 8000lbs and it's a rotator.
Your cutting a pit to drag the 9 into, so the loader had the height to lift the engine. JAWAG??😜
I'd weld some small gussets in those corners. But everyone tells me , I over build junk. And what's with the start of the slot hole, going to roll that crane in there and bury it?
Those tubes look like they are 1/4" wall thickness, I'd drill and tap them for motor mounts. Be better than "G" clamps anyway.
Gussets will help keep Jeffy from being a grease spot. Griffy is fast enough to get out of the way! You, not so much!
They say 1” of weld will lift 500kg and your welds look pretty decent so I think your in the clear
I recognise that tune 🎶🎶🎶🎶🎸🎵🎼

Polymer only works on aggregate they said and that won't "fly" 😂 with airplanes, I haven't had a minute to look at Caldwell yet
Maybe he doesn't want to do it that way
Looks nice!
Won't your excavator lift that engine?
👍
Jeff do you know any tow operator witha rotator tow truck that could pluck the D9 engine in less than an hour.

Chicken Dinner👍🐓
Dam coolant hose
Awesome!
Welds look NASA approved. Paint so purty, Cat ready. Oops Dozer down?
Tuesday Weld is pretty
Get a long sleeve shirt.
did something blow at the end of the vid?
It blew a hyd hose, oil on the manifold.
@@jefftheaussie2225 I saw it, I thought it could have been worse. LOL
Like the music
Boats, wives, machinery, there's always something going wrong or blowing a "fuse" lol..................
That didn't sound or look like a good ending !!!!!!!!
Did the neighbors ever catch on about that last mass grave you dug out back?
I want to see the platform you build to go around the engine stand. So you don't have to stand on a ladder to reach
What was the slot dozing for?
Probably gonna drag the dead soldier in there so that he doesn’t have to lift as high.
Mr griffie is working on security he will let Jeff do the welding
They make welding jackets for a reason Jay, just saying.
Well that takes all the fun outta it 😂
LOL did you have to disturb the carcasses and radiation storage to build a pit for the D9H? could it not pick up second hand electrical problems while you remove the engine?
What r you doing on the ground
Grinder n paint for the weld r you ain’t…if I had a nickel every time someone said that to me I’d have a pocket full…haha 😂😂😂…cheers
Soooo how much you want for it?
Sure you don't want to upgrade that old welder? New ones have all the digital readouts, Bluetooth, apps and all the bells and whistles a modern man like yourself craves. Very tempting, huh...?
Ohhh electronic voodoo 😂
@@Jpaydirt I was just being facetious. I know how much you like the old girl you are using. They don't make 'em like that anymore.
Gonna bury a big bone there, Jeff c'mon?
Wish you would put some AR plate gussets in all corners.
Jeff - I love your channel, but Don't put the engine on that stand without angle braces... Just being selfish...

Does anybody else think the crane has an allis chalmers 3500 engine.

@@Jpaydirt wow that is close to the AC 3500 but yep. Different.

This episode is Shop Foreman Mr. Griffy approved.
Ol' Kenny blue would be cool for the engine stand. But CAT yeller will do.
I vote for Kenworth Blue👍
Arc flash is not good foe eyes!….even Mr Griff’s.
