I don't know if you are a Grandfather, but if you are and have Grandsons, you have got to be the coolest grandpa alive!! Have these over grown toys to play with would be the best.
Loved the drone video. You are lucky the tractor even started. I acquired a Honda scooter that had sat in storage for several years and evaporated gas had plugged up the carburetor. It would not start and run without ether. I looked up the part number on Amazon, some carbs were twice the money than others. I couldn't figure out why so I purchased the cheaper along with a new fuel pump. Both arrived, the fuel pump in a Honda box, the carb in a plain unlabeled box. Once both were installed it would only run with ether then it died. Worked for hours trying to figure out why. The pump was pumping but nothing was going thru the carb. When I rechecked my order I found it was described as a replacement for the Honda part #, not a Honda part. Ordered another which was sold on Amazon by a Honda dealer. Once installed it immediately started and purred like a kitten. It has run 3 years flawlessly ever since.
Nice to see the dozer in action again. It be great to see you put quick connect battery terminals on the back for easier access to jump it off when needed. Great content, keep up the good work.
Just a note if you want better hydraulics you could use an older chevy saginaw power steering will develop 1500 psi all you have to do is make a larger tank on it. On a different note when you run an air cooled motor it will only cool properly you have to run at full speed, to all the folks think I don't know anything I run a John Deere Cub cadet Wheelhorse dealer ship for many years.
Its possible that the hydrolic filter in your gearbox may need a good clean as thats worth checking before the drastic step of stripping the gearbox out & apart. Do you ever take any of your builds to exhibitions or shows. I bet people would luv to see your machine's. TY for the videos there really good..
The unit has a new filter, new fluid and was completely gone through during the build. Here's the actual issue. The hydrostats on these tractors have a swash plate that moves further in forward than in reverse (8 vs. 5 mph). Since the front drive is actually running backwards (it's turned around) to give equal speed in both directions, I apparently milled more than needed off the "reverse" side of the swash plate. Hence, the right track (front drive unit) has more travel in reverse which is forward on the track. The rear drive probably has more power in reverse than the right track as that swash plate was milled also in reverse, which for the rear drive IS reverse. confusing, but that's what's going on. I didn't go into all that detail in the video... it's not a big problem, but the right track will dig a hole when up against a tree for example, while the left track stalls. In reverse, the opposite would be true.
It does work fine in most use. The left track only stalls under maximum load, as in pushing against a tree or big pile of dirt. the right track will dig a trench while the left track stalls under that kind of load. In other words, the right track loses traction--continues to spin--while the left track stops. It's due to the way I modified the swash plates in the hydrostats. I doesn't materially affect the machine's use, it's just non-symmetrical performance.

I'm Pop Pop.
I want to build one of these so bad . Awesome machine love this channel. The build of this machine was very enjoyable to watch learn alot thank you.

Thanks Frank!
We need 4k @ 60 FPS 🙏

I've contemplated adding a separate pump. I did that on both my forklift build and on the bush hog tractor.
Would luv to see you build a mini JCB back hoe with a working front loader & rear excavating arm.
I have a Kubota BX23...so that would be a duplicate.

Frank I couldn’t see the issue with how it was tracking, it looked like it was working fine….

One possibility for stalling on one side is a weak pressure relief valve. (Tow valve)
See my reply giggitygiggity.
Why are you using that and not the grader
Grader doesn't have float on the blade and this section of drive is not flat and is banked at one point, making the grader difficult to use.
I don't see why you could not reduce the travel of the other lever control, reducing its speed to match the slower one.
When I was trained by New Holland on skid loaders, you always match the faster side to the slower side.
It's not a speed issue, it's torque. See my reply to giggitygiggity.
