    I've subscribed. I remember in the late seventies, a local jcb legend was doing land clearing on our farm with a jcb 3c mk lll. A piece of casting from one of the half shaft housings snapped off and got into the drive gearing. The legend went off, came back a while later with a complete half shaft system and housing in the back of a Ford anglia and replaced the mangled unit with the one in boot of the anglia out on an open field. Greetings from the sunny South East Ireland

    I owned one of these back in the 80s , min had a four in one front bucket and a extending dipper , one hell of a machine , If only JCB had fitted a four wheel drive unit on this model therre would have never been a JCB 3C X !! I am watching this and loving it brings back many a memory Thanks , Vernon.

    Great old machine , I remeber the 3C s beside the roads doing work at the time when I was a little ankle biter, me always remember thinking what a great color scheme they had , love the old school kit . Great vid mucker 👍

    I drove these right through to 3cx, when they got too light to do much at all. I fixed them too. Nice to see the old things online. Thanks.

    Borg Warner Reverse shuttle & Turner 4 speed gearbox. Used to work on these as an apprentice from 1978/80. Early engines, Leyland 38TD, later ones 498NT (balanced), then Perkins. System pressure 2500psi max. Later models had torque proportional diff. Did my college project on 3CX Development.

    It was the 3CII that I had a go in that gave me an interest in the 180°'s. Got my CITB ticket then worked on 3CX's and CAT's. But have since moved over to 360° tracked excavators. Usually it's the guys from the 360°'s that jump into a 180°and can't operate them too well thinking they can. Glad I gained skills on the backactor first. Enjoyed your video, thanks.

    Interesting comment about the poster. In the sixties my uncle would get the "Construction news" and in the centre most weeks there would be a double page glossy advert , often these where for JCB's of all types , but they all ended up on my bedroom wall. It would seem I wasnt the only one.

  • @MalcOfLincoln
    @MalcOfLincoln 7 лет назад +1

    Good on you Kurt. This is similar to the one at the garage, except it has a gearbox and clutch. He got it in the mid 90s and I did some work on the cab, just to hold it together. As to using it, I quickly got used to the X lever positions, in fact rather enjoyed them for double use, slewing and lifting for example. Fairly sure he's been using it this weekend for moving stuff around.

    • @LordMuck
      @LordMuck  7 лет назад

      The majority had the clutch and gearbox. Handy bits of kit.

    • @MalcOfLincoln
      @MalcOfLincoln 7 лет назад +1

      Definitely. Last year he hadn't used it for ages. Had to move stuff around for the extended yard (now done). Well I heard him grating the gears, clutch was stuck so he reversed and came forward with no clutch...luckily it freed off. Doesn't have time to give it any tlc, but still does the job.

  • @sawsurgeon
    @sawsurgeon 7 лет назад +1

    Fascinating. I knew not of JCB's history and connection to Fordson. We've had about four of the Fordson Major Diesels over the last forty odd years. The old timers said they were popular for backhoe operations in their day, but I've never seen one equipped as such. I've a Super Major/Ford 5000 that is slated to go under the knife for a bit of resto. Sure wish the Roadless was as popular in the States as it was in your neck of the woods. That kind of hardware is hard to come by around these parts.
    That old JCB looks to be in mighty fine condition from this side of the screen. It will be a handy novelty to keep around, much like Dad's '49 D7 Cat. Not the most efficient, but she'll still push a bit! I look forward to your updates on this project.

    Great old beast, I went by one everyday for 12 years parked in a field slowly sinking into said field and then one day the front wheels got pinched and then in a matter of weeks they took the whole bloody thing, I'd been meaning to ask the owner if I could possibly buy it but obviously didn't but wish I had I'm still 👀looking 👀. For one I might add great vid as usual 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

    • @LordMuck
      @LordMuck  7 лет назад +1

      Handy thing to have in the yard.

    • @miker8256
      @miker8256 7 лет назад +1

      Hi, well that's a trip down memory lane! Drove one of those in mid 80's then bought a 81 case 580F. Didn't like at first because it had a very fast back actor slew. Once I got used to it I found it a very good machine. David brown engine, gear box and back axle plus torque converter.
      Because of the type of chassis construction JCB's tended to have stress cracks which had to be welded up. A local plant hire contractor told me that I wouldn't have to use a welder on the 508. He was right although a few years later I did tell him that I had had used a welder on it - the bracket holding the rear number plate had fallen off!!!
      Still use it as my yard machine and never had any stress crack problems with it. Good luck with the old JC. Midlandmike.

    • @LordMuck
      @LordMuck  7 лет назад

      Early on I spent more time on a 580F than a 3C and 3CX before going on to a G and then an SK. Case were far quicker than the JCB's but not as powerful plus the G's used to shear the drive to the oil pump and seize. JCB's were sods for cracking the top of the main boom on the back actor. I always liked the loader and controls on the 580F - just seemed right and natural plus you could get that DB lump to bark out on a cold morning !

  • @dunc1958
    @dunc1958 7 лет назад +1

    She's not in bad nick, the one I used to run had the tractor style transmission and the front loader controls was 3 levers ours had the 4 in 1 bucket and forks. I remember the diff got damaged and I had to swap the bits over by removing the cab floor the old Nuffield/ Leyland diffs were high up which made the job a bit easier. Nice video a pleasant trip down memory lane.

    • @LordMuck
      @LordMuck  7 лет назад

      I was offered an earlier 3C3 with the 4-1 bucket but the three levers is so cumbersome when all I want it for is moving gear plus we have the newer JCB for any grading work !

    • @dunc1958

    Great video. Interesting that they used the chassis as oil and fuel tanks.
    I think that's the first time I have heard anyone mention Nuffield. Many many years ago friends of ours had a Nuffield 4/60.
    I never got to drive it as it had a clutch issue. But I've never seen nor heard of one since.
    Keep up the great work Sir and mind ow YOU go.

    • @LordMuck
      @LordMuck  7 лет назад

      Check out Malc of Lincoln's channel, he's a big Nuffield fan.
      In the day, they were advertised as 'Britain's most powerful tractor' as they had more grunt than the Fordson Major.

    @super6954 7 лет назад +1

    Hi Thanks for the video, this is going to be a good series. I figured the JCB or cab kit for the Deere is what turned up, I like surprises more than using other social media sites ;). Looks like you did good if the money was right, and You made it worth another 1000 quid washing it . I only ever saw one so it must be pretty rare in the U.K. My friend in wales rebuilt a factory fitted Ford engine in a 3C3 they didn't all have a Leyland, I think there was a strike at Bathgate or something like that could of been the reason.
    Your cabs worse than mine for rot sadly, but you got parts like the lower dash panel, the cover over the brake reservoir and most of the switches I'm missing. I think I found one in the states for parts so hopefully they might have the missing trinket bits. Mine has a pattern changer on the rear controls for export so it's + instead of x but like some 3cx's you can turn it for X if desired, I don't have the single loader control either it's a 3 stick no 4 in 1.
    Mines starting to get expensive the more I work it, it has 5 good days then seems to cost money. This weeks started with one front tire looking 8 1/2 months pregnant and ready to deliver a tube anytime!. The big kicker is it's got 1 new tire I can't match up, the only thing I can buy is 18" front tires off a case 580 4wd to fit my D rims, there's loads of different 16" tires for a C rim in Canada .
    I'm pretty sure the whole thing will be painted before the end, been there done that with the "I'll just do this bit" then it makes the rest look crap from 200 ft. Like me you remember them being smart looking work horses back in the day, and thats what you'll want before you're done. I'm thinking if I got the patience and time to do it right mines getting a new
    Sunday suit ;) . Robert.

    • @LordMuck
      @LordMuck  7 лет назад

      Early Jakes had a Ford engine, never seen a 3C3 with a Ford lump unless it had been converted (seen that on a 3C2).
      If you want any bits and bobs for yours Robert, drop me a line and I will see what I can get over to you.

    • @super6954
      @super6954 7 лет назад +1

      Thanks for the parts offer I'll see what happens. On the ford motor I know about the old Fordson ones. I just thought of something I saw in my old Bepco parts books from the U.K It lists the JCB clutches.
      There is a 13" listed for MK 3's with BMC or a Ford Engine it says it's a 956, so is that maybe an industrial 5000 tractor type motor. Google didn't bring it up in a search, or something could be wrong with the info. It would of been around the very late 80's or early 90's this one was around.
      There would of been lots of Leyland /Nuffield stuff to swap a motor if needed,so swapping a ford in might not make sense when it wasn't that old . Thinking back over years of useless info i'm pretty sure I've read or heard about them somewhere else to, But don't know where it was. Maybe I need to ask some questions on a forum Julian Carder that works for JCB is on sometimes. Robert

    • @LordMuck
      @LordMuck  7 лет назад

      Julian would know if they fitted another unit for export or similar but I've never seen a late one with a Ford lump. Don't forget that the later 3C's aren't just a 'Leyland lump' and there are several bits that are rather different (same as the lorry ones, the industrial ones etc)

      Sorry Chap, just seen your comment. I assume sold around the same time. She was 8 years old when I first saw her, October 1987. We had another, HAJ918V, a 1972 'L' plate 3Cii on breaker duties, and an 805B, FRY616V.

    nice. you seem to know a lot about these diggers. we have a 1981 jcb 3cx (white cab is the nickname i believe) and when you select reverse on the forward/reverse shifter, the transmission just lock up, like as if you have applied the breaks. it goes fine in foward. just wondering if you have a vague idea of what it might be. cheers

    • @LordMuck
      @LordMuck  6 лет назад +1

      It could be several things but to save time, give Vicary Plant at Lutterworth a call. They will know what it is and also will have the bits you need to sort it.

  • @manic_tinkerer
    @manic_tinkerer 4 года назад

    The late brockhouse unit 3c3 came with the hydra chassis skid incorporating oil and diesel tanks in the chassis itself but not a power train transmission, so the trans all in one with the portal rear axle but (almost) the same skid as the power train. Full width squared off dash. I know this because I've got one parked in the yard with clamshell front bucket (sadly not a extending boom, though Ive seen a 3c3 with one, but maybe it wasn't original, who knows...) I dont know if the 4/98 sump is different but its a cast alloy one, and has a massive skid plate underneath in 1/4" steel that I'm pretty sure braces the chassis. I think they kept changing them every season without changing the designation so ordering bits is a minefield in that whole transition period. If your bothered, your missing a bit of sheet trim that goes on top of the door to make it mate up to the sliding door, but easy to fold a fill piece for. Someone should sell cab quarter repair panels pre bent, theyre all fubar at the bottom, though our ROPS cabs fared a bit better with the rot monster. I didn't even got the doors or glass in mine and cabs are a bit like hens teeth. Why run a old dog? because it beats digging with a bloody spade...

      Curiosity got the better of me, and the extending dipper is a factory option on 3c... Interesting... www.classicmachinery.net/forum/images/userpix/578_ONIRRVVSUX7O1460912101.jpg

    • @LordMuck
      @LordMuck  4 года назад

      Brockhouse is a different skid to the Powertrain.
      Powertrain is 3 units mounted within the Hydra-Chassis whereas the Brockhouse is still a tractor skid unit (Leyland 270) mounted within the Hydra-Chassis. The Hydra-Chassis had been around for years previously.
      4/98 sumps are load bearing in a Powertrain as it has no tractor skid to support it.
      I've got all the bottom door pieces (two spares) and a couple of spare step plates.
      Cabs are a nightmare, mine is okay as they go and can be repaired along the bottom.

    • @LordMuck
      @LordMuck  4 года назад

      Yes dipper was an option but was meant to be hellish because of the extra weight.

    A friend of mine said you could switch the pipes around on the back actor to make like the newer ones but i always thought they screwed around with the pressure and nothing worked smoothly was just curious if that was true

    • @LordMuck
      @LordMuck  7 лет назад

      I doubt you could change the pattern but it is more than likely possible that you could swap the dipper and boom to go to 'standard' (Boom right, dipper left) At the end of the day it's a JCB and you just adjust accordingly (normally takes me an hour or so by which time I have finished doing what I had to do !)

      Each service had different pressure settings for aux relief valves inside spool valves so swapping hoses around would effect digging performance.

    She's a neat machine for sure, I didn't know the frame was a tank as well, very interesting! kinda built with the same concept as a truck. Have you ever had a chance to run any of the older Ford or Case backhoes with the 4 lever boom controls?

    • @LordMuck
      @LordMuck  7 лет назад +1

      Oldest case I ran was a 580F so two main levers plus two for jack legs but I did drive an old Ford for a guy which had a separate levers for each control.

    JCB obviously came up with a good idea and stuck with it having all parts separated. these days they have solenoids instead of levers so the new ones are just a spruced up oldie anyway.

      Early 73, I think. A surprising number of the hydraulic hoses are original and have the date stamp on the crimped-on alloy tags. Cab a lot rustier than your one, and a variety of welds on boot the front arms and rear boom, but running sweet enough.

      I changed the oil and the main filter. Filter had turned into a kind of papery mush. Engine looks like a Leyland recon unit, its that kind of very pale blue BL used. A lot better than the pick and shovel, that's for sure! Keep away from soft ground, though. Even has brakes, which having grown up with 10/60's, 384's and a 272 syncro, is amazing....
