      I can't blame you, Squatch, for staying away from what lubricants you will be using. I don't know why oil is such an emotional topic for so many people. I never tell anyone what oil I run in my motorcycle for the very same reason. It turns into a senseless circular arguement every time.

    Howdy Squatch253, Thank you for your generous sharing of time and expertise. I know that making videos is a-lot of work, and it is appreciated. We watch your videos as a family and I deeply appreciate your show and tell style. I'm not much of a mechanic, but watching what and how you are working on your projects, you are showing by example that projects can get accomplished. I also extend your teaching with the kids by showing how you break down much larger projects into smaller efforts. You are appreciated. Don't ever let the @#$% get you down. You are a good person for sharing that and one of the few role models we have left.

  • @HillbillySailor

    I like your take on lubricants. Your explanation reminded me of my late father. The man HATED Quaker State. Didn't matter the oil/grease. Didn't matter the application. If it had Quaker State written on it anywhere, he wasn't using it....period. I don't know what his hangup was with Quaker State, as I could never get him to tell me. Whatever it was, he was dedicated to it. Thanks for helping bring up that memory!

Please know that I completely enjoy your work and your time in rhe shop, I also respect your retisence to get your options on those Trigger topics involved in the channels discussion.

Happy Easter to you and yours, greetings from the hinterlands of Ohio.

    To finalize the videos on the drive sections, can you show us some simple hand drawn diagrams of how it all works together? What I'm looking for is something showing "this turns this direction" causing "this to turn this direction" with appropriate arrows, etc. You know how all this works coming and going (like the back of your hand), but for us viewers it is a little confusing as you bolt & sandwich each housing layer together to see how it all interacts together.

    Awesome video! Great explanation on those seal retainers. Everything they did had a reason, and nothing was done with out a reason. Amazes me how they were able to do feedback loops with mechanical devices, that nowadays use sensors and computers. Something to be said for the mechanical way when troubleshooting an issue. Easy to see a worn or broken metal piece. Pretty hard to tell that nowadays with out a computerized scanner. Easy to fix as well, weld a broken part or make a new one. Of course wouldn’t be doing that with the amount of torque going through those final drives, but linkages would be easy.
    Interesting you talking about oil. Just looking at topping up/changing the oil in the trans and finals on my D2. Looking for Cat’s recommended weight. Thinking 90, and something lighter in the trans. Have to get out the operators guide. Working on rebuilding hydraulic cylinders, leaking seals. Still trying to figure out where the oil in the bell housing is coming from. Main engine, pony engine, pinion housing or transmission. Now for the second time in a few months the pinion is kicking out at low rpm. Yesterday it kicked out every time I engaged compression, at about 1/4 throttle, diesel throttle off. Had to warm it up without compression, then open the throttle and then engage compression. Fires up fine as long as warm enough. Runs fine and shuts off fine, so I know diesel throttle is shutting off fine. Oh well another mystery to solve, or two.
    You and yours stay safe, and enjoy Easter weekend.

    Kind of have to agree on the lubricants topic. Everyone has a different idea on what to use. I have my own view just as 10x100 other people. So in that sense I can understand leaving that topic untouched is for the best. Agree on the thing that gears get destroyed from the lack of lubrication(or sometimes water +moisture damage). That has come up in my practice as well. Cage rollers will be a fun part to see. I think some of that CAT D2 roller design is still in use today.

    @Squatch253 - I have been searching for this video all morning, "How to adjust the brakes" . I guess i will just assume there is no need to mess with the bottom centering bolt and just tighten up (adjust) the brake. I just bought a 1937 D-4, it runs good. Oh yea the clutch lever when I release it does not have a good release or spring to hold the lever released so when I release it the dozer tries to keep moving so I keep wanting to use the left brake to stop dozer not sure if I think I am trying to use it as a brake or as a clutch, so that's why I need to adjust brake. Now I need to find video on clutch lever and see what that is about. I have watched the entire series, but memory is not what it used to be.

    Have you ever tried the locktite 518 or similar flange sealer? We have been using that on our tugs and works great nice thing about it is it doesn’t clog up oil passages and stuff like what can happen with RTV or silicone. When excess is used it actually dissolves in oil/fuel but when used between flanges it’s a nice seal. We personally love it and it’s all we use now

    Those sprockets seem sharp to me. Back when I ran the 955 we'd be looking to change them. :-)

    When I buy a litre of oil, should I get the kind with the spout in the middle, or spout to one side? 😃

    Oil Rule 1 - Some oil is better than none. Oil Rule 2 - Full oil is better than some. End of rules.
    2 - Stroke observation: No motor ever died from too much oil. Many have died from too little ...

    The truth regarding lubrication, any is better than not enough oil or dirty oil .

    My Great Grandpa worked for Standard oil 1885-1930. His crew shoveled coal to fire the evaporation towers. (That's what they called them back then). They had to shovel the paraffin out after each batch. Gasoline was considered a waste product until 1914 and was simply dumped into the Hudson River. My grandfather worked for them too as a salesman 1918-1953. Oils were pretty crude compared to todays standards. Low speed #1 failure, lack of oil or contamination. Highspeed #1 failure, same.The salesmans job was to get you to like him more than the next salesman. Hence lots of "swag" giveaways at each visit.

    You have been an inspiration to me in my Deere model B rebuild to the extent I hand made most all of my gaskets and mechanical locks but I have a question and that is if I am making a large gasket and it will need to be multiple pieces what is the best "joint" to use and where would you place them ?

    I haven't read the comments, but would you use synthetic lubes (whatever brand) in most big trucks we have synthetic lubes in at least in the transmission and rear ends. Just your opinion on synthetic versus organic lubes.

    @16:33 there's a perfect example of the Cat's idea. A notch to put the bolt. How many times have we encountered a bolt and our 1st thought is '''HOW'D THEY GET THIS IN THERE?'''At thevend you say you're outta time......why you keep yappin' for?
