Correct on that. A hard working, brilliant man he is. Knows what he is doing and is honest. He keeps making videos - I will keep watching and forwarding them to friends and relatives across the country.
My thoughts exactly. I've fixed a few things twice because I screwed up. What gets me mad is when I have to fix what I paid someone else to fix. I boycotted one tire shop because they did a wheel alignment for me and left the adjustment bolt loose on one corner. I discovered it when I went to do my weekly tire check and found that 2 tires were very worn with less than 1000 miles on them. They refused to take responsibility and wanted to charge me for another wheel alignment and 2 tires. They were out of business in less than a year after that and the building was bought by a company that specializes in truck tires.
Just found your channel, so your free advertising works! You should be proud of what you do as you are brilliant at it. We all make mistakes from time to time and shows how good you are with admitting it was your fault as a lot of others people would try and pass the blame on to others.
I think it’s time for a fishing trip Warren, the worst feeling you can have as a mechanic is when you put time and effort into something, and know something didn’t go right. Standing behind it and fixing it just shows you care, that you have integrity and that your willing to be humble and eat some crow once in awhile. Heck, you show the world that. I’d like to know how many mechanics would actually do that! We are all learning from the mistake so thanks for sharing. Thank you also for being a stand up guy and a great mentor and role model for future generations of field mechanics. Lots appreciate your efforts sir!
👍👍shit happens man,piss on it...and good for you,how you've excelled with all your knowledge and hard work as well as built a good reputation and business 👍👍👊
Hey Warren, you are just too busy. Pretty cool that you make this right. You can’t even focus on one project because of parts. But you got his busy period! Take care and thanks for getting us a video.
Warren, been following you for a very very long time now. You're right, you haven't done a lot of "return" work but, you're honest and you still fix what you already knew was wrong or a mistake you may have made. There just isn't that many people in this world today that admit to their mistake(s) or even warranty their own work and fix it. Just more reason why you're absolutely the very best on YT. It's always a joy and pleasure to watch your work and learn from you, even if you've shown some of this stuff a few times before. Always learning something new or getting a refresher from you from each of your videos. Thank you, thank you for always sharing with us. P.S. At least this isn't a POS Paccar!!! LMAO. I also counted with you on that gear. LOL You're the best. Cheers :)
At 75 years old, it’s unlikely that I’ll ever work on one of these transmissions, but here I am learning about Roadrangers, and trying to remember all of your tips. LoL
Been running my own service truck since last June. One of the things that I always remember is your work ethic and your attitude of making things right with your costumers. That’s exactly what I do with my costumers. If things come back, or I do a misdiagnosis, I work out a deal to make it right with my costumers
My parents always took their cars to a friend/ mechanic who lived down the road from us instead of taking the car back to the dealers. Dad would say all the dealer wants to do is sell you parts and labor before figuring out and repairing problems first. Taking devices apart and fixing them is more respectable than just removing and replacing them. Thanks for the great content. Have a great week.
It's good advice, Warren. I've been in Business for 25 years myself too, and I know what some people, used to say where I used to Work that environment I used to please everybody else and I was always the underdog you have much more freedom, and it's a much better life if you can do it on your own God bless you.
There is a reason why you have more work than you can handle, and this video explains everything. Thank you for being a good example to others, and not be afraid that, hey I goofed.
Hey Warren. Haven't been here in awhile, so I thought to stop in. Warranty work,....ugh. You really DO learn from your mistakes! (esp. when it is free, and you do it instead of earning on another job). PROPS to you for admitting your misgiving. I remember doing transmissions many yrs ago. I did both manual and automatics in the 80's. Mostly Fuller Roadranger 900 series for trucking, and Allison MT & HT series for off-highway. I really enjoyed the fullers,(You get to use a hammer a lot, 😁). And YES you do them horizontal. I hadda big table with an 1 1/2" maple top on it. One thing i learned early was to always replace the synchonizers (slip gears) on the fullers. They wear out easily when truckers don't clutch thru the gears and get high mileage,or heavy service. I don't know how I would have taken out the mainshaft with the trans in a vertical position. WOW. I took off the PTO plate and could "shimmy" it out to the back. At any rate; good to see you in good health and keepin' 'em running! BEST, Jay in NY
I appreciate your honesty, that’s one reason I watch your channel. As far as advertising and using You Tube as a means of getting your name out there, it’s one of those situations of “ damned if you do and damned if you don’t”. I like your approach to being diversified, thanks for the update, appreciate your tutorial and your videos Warren.
True at 26:40 on the Ancient knowledge thing. Kirby products are pretty good, we have several but customer service is lacking lately. No real good mobile AG mechanics down south anymore, the last of which are two brothers retired and retiring. We appreciate you sharing your knowledge.
I really appreciate your honesty and letting everyone know that stuff happens, even to the best of us. I went to Ohio Auto Diesel back in 94-95 to learn Diesel Repair. They had a pretty good program and we learned automatic and manual transmissions. The funny part was when I graduated, top of my class, it was really hard to find a job. Most shops wanted experience, but wouldn’t give you a shot. I was lucky and worked with some good guys that were willing to share knowledge. I moved from Diesel Mechanics to Commercial HVACR almost 25 years ago. I have taught apprentice classes for years. I am trying to make sure the apprentices learn as much as possible, without the information block. That’s a pretty shady frame extension, is the other side screwed up like that? Hopefully your foot’s healing up decent. Thanks Again for dragging us along for the adventure.
Great video and comebacks happen to us all in the trade. You fixed it and that’s what counts. Too bad you can’t find a helper but maybe less stress this way. Thx
I like how you show the good, bad, and the ugly, show's you don't have an issue with pride. I would guess your work ethic has contributed to all the work you've got coming at you. Word of mouth travels fast, and if you do good work and stand by it, the people will come whether they like your brutal honesty or not. That's what i like about you Warren, there's no trying to guess how you feel about stuff, because you say it like it is, and your yes is yes, and your no is no. Do it like i said lol, that's what comes to mind lol, because you say it so dang funny. Glad the problem wasn't something real bad, and the rigs back out doing work. G-d bless.
Good stuff man, I’m another HD mechanic that wants to learn everything. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. You are doing a service for common good in the mobile equipment world.
I’ve noticed you put a lot of gaskets in dry no adhesive bullshit I can really appreciate that makes for a clean assembly I understand have use rtv sometimes but boy I hate that shit
I like to make 'dowels' for aligning by using long bolts (6" or more) of correct thread and with the heads cut off. Helps when setting heavy covers without moving the gasket.
There is not a mechanic or shop out there I’d rather work for or learn under. Your well rounded mechanical expertise has what help me want to learn more in different directions. Worked AG, medium duty, and now heavy truck just trying to learn as much as I can. Guys at the shop question me for jumping around a bit but it’s only made me better.
I find that when people in this field try to hide knowledge from younger technicians, that the younger ones turns out to be better in the long run. No one has a monopoly on knowledge,a person with ambition will find a way to get it done even if you don't show them. I'm glad that you are better than them now.
I think with all the different equipment you work on you do a fantastic job. There is a lot of mechanics out there would not be able to keep up with you. You are one of the best mechanics.
Absolutely true about the CLICK society where only the chosen are accepted throughout the maintenance and repair world Some shops might not have it but they are few and far between
We have Nutrien Ag in Australia now, bought out LandMark a couple years ago. Livestock agents ferts, seed and feed, they also have most rural products including steel
Dude, we all know your work is top notch and so does everyone that you do work for. Loved it when you flipped off the assholes you used to work for. Got a good laugh!
Good stuff Warren. Good to see some own a mistake even though it was more bad luck than a mistake. You had the respect for your client to sort the issue at your cost. I've been told if you piss one person off they tell 8 people which can be the eventual down fall of many small businesses. You have my respect Warren for your weath on knowledge, good work ethic and your honesty. , Keep up the good work and good content I enjoy watching your channel from here in New Zealand. Regards, Jimmy
I am retired but I would certainly love to be your shop helper. It is unbelievable you are able to get anything done. Who does your billing ,vehicle licensing ,takes care of all operational expenses ,shipping receiving ,parts ordering ,shop supplies list goes on and on. . I know you recruit the wife sometimes . I would help with all this because taking part in your mechanical adventures has to be better than watching on RUclips. You are the real deal and a decent person. I don’t understand why some young kid doesn’t latch on to you just for the opportunity and exposure. That is what I did at 13 and ended up working very well for me.
Honesty is the best policy. Glad you got it sussed and fixed. More speed less haste is the thing here Two guy's trying to get some work done, as you said, it wasn't right and you knew it. Thank you for uploading what other's don't. Spring is on the way🙂
Nice tip on that main shaft key! Great to see somebody standing behind their work. You gonna get stuck fixing that stretch job now that you saw the crack?
Amen to the cliques man. My old job would never teach anybody about the Cat mechanical pumps. Having the right people willing to teach the willing new guys is everything.
I remember resealing a pto pump on 15spd with the deep reduction and had to get going the next day, didnt see that all the gaskets stuck together were to shim it.. started it up and drove sounded like it was supercharged haha! Pulled it off and added them gaskets solved it
Trial an error not only teaches you how it should be done but just as importantly how not to do it. It frustrates me when people think they have to be trained or shown every step before they ever attempt any procedure. If I hadn’t learned by trial and research 90 percent of the work I have wouldn’t be possible. Knowledge of many different fields can become a curse at times. It’s difficult for employees to become proficient because they’re back and forth between so many different procedures, most people don’t possess the skills to retain all information. Keep up the great work Warren, look forward to every video.
i love you warren an your welcome in Chilliwack BC but i ran into that to much work problem at the worst points in my life i finally learned to say no im 1 man can only do so much also grew up wit a truckdriving dad i never saw but he never left but we are worlds apart but been able to repair that lately also i force my self to take a week off to recover your now and then finally trained some of my customers maintenece and told them my time im gone amazing how much they need me before that i ignore them
Love your videos you're very knowledgeable. I have to continue to learn. It's a problem I have. Lol. You will never hear me say anything negative I just want to learn from the best thank you
Honesty is a big deal for me in this industry. I hate doing warranty work, but I will never make up excuses and blame it on something else if it is my fault. Gentlemen like yourself are hard to come by.
I hate doing it too, but I sure like return customers and it's just the right thing to do. I was just watching your video on that new welder, you bought, that is quite a machine.
All that right there in the shop, plus a que waiting outside and hours of service calls every day, and Warren is still turning paying work away - amazing. I wish I could legally work in the US. I'd drop my high paying prison chair job in a heartbeat to go and work in the shop and service calls with Warren, even in Oregon type winters (I hate winter, but Oregon / N. Commi-fornia winter is nothing like Manitoba winter). I can't understand why there isn't a herd of good non-city boy apprentice candidates at Warren's door looking for work. Rewarding work that comes with a bonus 1st class free heavy equipment mechanic education.
We know about those gearboxes. We have done a few of them. Tommy whom I work for. Used to have 18 trucks on the road. They were pretty old trucks as well. So he was always spannering something.
Where you’re going on about why you work alone starting around the 27:00 mark had me laughing because I work at a dealership and it’s like that for me there. I’ll make 3 years as a tech soon and am getting training as well as experience but like you I want to be as well diversified as I can to work on whatever may call. I really enjoy your channel and appreciate your comments about things, viewpoints, etc and often laugh at things because I can relate😂. I’m about to go together with a 7.3L and watched your old video from one you did probably 5 years ago to get me going. One thing after another and I still don’t have it done. Machine shop messaged me Friday saying to go ahead and order pistons. Question: if KT performance has Mahle pistons that are .02” oversized and the machine shop bored the cylinders to that size; the bore would no longer be 4.110” in my math. They would be 4.130”, but they’re listed as 4.110” and 0.02” oversized with 0.01” reduced height. Is that a typo, or is there something to do i.e: order different pistons?
Just a suggestion: people appreciate feedback. I understand turning down work. If it were me (and what I did before i retired) I would stay in contact with those you turned away. Conversation would be "Joe, I know I couldn't help you a few months back but I finally got caught up and can help if you need me". When things get slow, and they will, "Joe" will remember you had the decency to reach out to him and offer to help.
Takes a big man to admit to his mistakes, and an even bigger one to admit it to a large audience..great video Warren
I respect and appreciate a man who admits and corrects his mistakes.
Correct on that. A hard working, brilliant man he is. Knows what he is doing and is honest. He keeps making videos - I will keep watching and forwarding them to friends and relatives across the country.
Agreed
The only kind of people that never make a mistake are the people who don't do anything.
My thoughts exactly. I've fixed a few things twice because I screwed up. What gets me mad is when I have to fix what I paid someone else to fix. I boycotted one tire shop because they did a wheel alignment for me and left the adjustment bolt loose on one corner.

You can't beat an honest mechanic who stands behind his work !!!
Warren, Your work ethic and integrity is appreciated. Thank You for the time You spend on these videos. Best Wishes to You and Your Family.
Rebuilding this twice is probably still better than working on a Paccar !
POS Paccar lol
Paccars are not that bad.
Warren loves paccars,,
lol
@@bodey-mHaha… that’s why they just get parked and then sold at auction for basically nothing once they break down. Throw away engine. 😆
Just found your channel, so your free advertising works!

👍👍shit happens man,piss on it...and good for you,how you've excelled with all your knowledge and hard work as well as built a good reputation and business 👍👍👊
Always a pleasure to wake up to Warren😊
Warren you are a great mechanic and teacher. I don’t think there’s anything you can’t fix. Just wow!
Hey Warren, you are just too busy. Pretty cool that you make this right. You can’t even focus on one project because of parts. But you got his busy period! Take care and thanks for getting us a video.
Thanks Warren for the video. I cracked up laughing seeing your stylish boot. Like anything you are working the hell outta it haha.
You are a wealth of knowledge, unbelievable the way you go about diagnosis problems and i like how you explain stuff, and i don't mind your rants 😂
Warren well done on your warranty work shit happens unfortunately
This is exactly why we watch you bro,appreciate you being humble enough to show the rework,shit happens and ya gotta own it,cheers Warren.

Not a big deal, most people wouldn’t even attempt to rebuild a transmission! Excellent video.

Great video Chuck we do the bannock on an alder stick over the open fire just wrap it around the stick.
Everyone has an off day. Your work is still way beyond any of the other guys I’ve found on RUclips! Props on the customer being so cool
That’s we watch , we know your always going to keep it real,
Thanks for the videos

Without any doubt your knowledge of mechanic has become encyclopedic considering the variety of the vehicles that you every day repair.
I like how you show the good, bad, and the ugly, show's you don't have an issue with pride. I would guess your work ethic has contributed to all the work you've got coming at you.

Haha. Did you know Komastu uses gray RTV on the inside of most coolant/radiator hoses? Im not sure any other brand does that but man it sucks.
@@nathankisner8332 It keeps them from weeping if surfaces are less than perfect , they tend to slide out under pressure but seal they do .

Amen to the cliques man. My old job would never teach anybody about the Cat mechanical pumps. Having the right people willing to teach the willing new guys is everything.

Thanks Warren for another great video.
i love you warren an your welcome in Chilliwack BC but i ran into that to much work problem at the worst points in my life i finally learned to say no im 1 man can only do so much also grew up wit a truckdriving dad i never saw but he never left but we are worlds apart but been able to repair that lately also i force my self to take a week off to recover your now and then finally trained some of my customers maintenece and told them my time im gone amazing how much they need me before that i ignore them
Hello Warren: looking forward to the cat projects. Show us everything.
Great video !!!!! Great work!!!!! A+
Love your videos you're very knowledgeable. I have to continue to learn. It's a problem I have. Lol. You will never hear me say anything negative I just want to learn from the best thank you

Your one cool cat warren 😂 🇬🇧
We know about those gearboxes. We have done a few of them. Tommy whom I work for. Used to have 18 trucks on the road. They were pretty old trucks as well. So he was always spannering something.
Always enjoy your videos 👍
Where you’re going on about why you work alone starting around the 27:00 mark had me laughing because I work at a dealership and it’s like that for me there. I’ll make 3 years as a tech soon and am getting training as well as experience but like you I want to be as well diversified as I can to work on whatever may call. I really enjoy your channel and appreciate your comments about things, viewpoints, etc and often laugh at things because I can relate😂. I’m about to go together with a 7.3L and watched your old video from one you did probably 5 years ago to get me going. One thing after another and I still don’t have it done. Machine shop messaged me Friday saying to go ahead and order pistons. Question: if KT performance has Mahle pistons that are .02” oversized and the machine shop bored the cylinders to that size; the bore would no longer be 4.110” in my math. They would be 4.130”, but they’re listed as 4.110” and 0.02” oversized with 0.01” reduced height. Is that a typo, or is there something to do i.e: order different pistons?
Kindest regards from your buddy in Canada 🇨🇦
Bloody lucky to find a spring good enough. I wouldnt know how you would fix it if not.
It's a miracle anything works as complicated as things have become. I believe we are over the hump and the newer it is the less reliable it will be.
Thanks for sharing
Warren, what you’re saying about teaching yourself by mistakes is called “Autodidacticism”. Thanks for your integrity.
That finger jester say it all for a lot of us in various trades...
At least it was not costly in parts. It was expensive with time!!
This will drive a man ta drinking in his hot-rod Lincoln.
Just a suggestion: people appreciate feedback. I understand turning down work. If it were me (and what I did before i retired) I would stay in contact with those you turned away. Conversation would be "Joe, I know I couldn't help you a few months back but I finally got caught up and can help if you need me". When things get slow, and they will, "Joe" will remember you had the decency to reach out to him and offer to help.
Great video, you are a. Good example of a good person,
If I was a few years younger and not living 5000 miles away, I would volunteer my services.......😁
