thanks, It will be a life saver and money saver as well. When I find a nice concrete bucket, it will save $800 every day that I use it. Going to be a lot of pours going on to build my house
Retired 75 yr young Marine Electrician watching from BERMUDA. Very impressed by your methodical approach to solving the problems. Watching ALL your films. Great stuff !!
There’s one of these cranes coming up in my local auction says it’s in operable... but that’s what they said about the last one I bought lol this Looks better suited for me needs!
I have a machine shop locally that has a pettibone 30 model for $3500 . its got the old detroit 453 2 stroke diesel in it. its got a 15 ton capacity and the boom is 60'. where are you located?
Hi Jesse,,,,that motor is a Wakasha,they used that motor in White tractors,some combines,lots of different stuff. Should be no problem to get parts for. Good luck
You and Andrew, while having similar subject matter are diverse enough so you don't step on each other's toes with your content! Couple a hard working upstaters!
Don't let the clouds spook you when you have the boom extended and as high as it will go as they will make you think your tipping over. From a Veteran Thanks for not letting the American Flag touch the Ground . As we say here in Arkansas ' Keep them cards and letters Coming '. Great Videos young man .
@daniel bean we use to have to get council approval to erect a flag pole. But we have some of our indigenous people calling it an invasion flag and others who don't like the Union Jack on the flag. It is only since the 1st World War that we had a blue flag before that it was red. I think China would like to see us with a different red flag these days!
The only time we will start flying the flag like that is when WA finally secedes. Anyway, the way things are going over there in the States of late, there's not much patriotism attached to this symbol, unfortunately.
l am an 80 year old Navy pilot.....That grand old Flag sold me....l just...Sub'ed to your awesome channel...An the old girl is running again....Many thanks....!
The music at the end and the Beautiful American Flag made me cry. Paul and I are so proud of that grand ole flag! Paul and I come from parents that served in ww2. Both of Paul's parents served while my dad, was only 14 when his mother signed permission for him to serve in the merchant marines. God bless you and your family.
i didn't think I would enjoy this because I don't like compression motors, I am basically a wood guy, but to my surprise, I did. Good work to both of you.
John Lewis had it down, for how far you went into it. Lap Valves, Check a rod and a main bearing. Then pull Pistons and new rings and hone the hell out of each cylinders. Finish off by servicing the fuel injectors. You are lucky smiles. From a desk jockey parts and service and warranties for over 30 years on Industrial Marine and diesel electric set. Andrew and Jesse I enjoyed this one immensely. Jesse you have a new follower. Thank to Andrew. Keep them coming Bravo Zulu
The US military bullies countries into submission and bombs civilians. It is also the number one polluter in the world and its purpose is to protect the interests of the US elite (not the common people, or their interests).
@@unclea8148. Heck if I know. I only got that far. Those big flags place a lotta back and forth side stress on those booms so most places rotate them regularly only leaving them up for a couple of days.
Andrew got a bigger crane and we don’t know about it? Jesse, I’ve now watched you build an entire fleet of vehicles from rescued iron. Outstanding! Really, you have a capable business built with your own sweat equity. Be proud man. Great ending.🇺🇸
This video stands for so much.....America, people like yourself and Andrew keeping the spirit alive. One kick ass video and editing job Jesse. Thank you for sharing.
You did a fine job of troubleshooting and repairing the engine, having the radiator repaired, fixing the brakes, and welding up the crack. Now you have a very useful crane to add to all of your other equipment. Well done Jesse.
I'm not a farmer (although I come from a farming background) and the only equipement owning I have is an almost ordinary sewing machine which replaced a top of the range Swiss machine which got knocked off its pedestal , been to various Repair Workshops, enough to buy a new machine, which you no longer can do because they have all been bought up and liquified by foreign (Asiatic ) Firms that have robbed the technical know-how and substituted plastics and computer function for solid machinary. I wish I could be impressed with sewing repairs the way I am with these two Heavy Machinery Vloggers.
Thanks Jesse, your videos are always up top along with Andrew's, and I love your love of your great country by flying your flag coming from a Canadian who loves America! Cheers.
This video has me shaking my head in amazement. It seems like it is showing the absolutely hardest way to diagnose a problem possible. Instead of tearing the engine down and even removing the base, I would start by simply cracking each injector feed while running and see which cylinders started to skip. Next I would do compression checks on each cylinder.
Awesome video Jesse. You have a new subscriber. Your knowledge and skill impressed me. Jesse when you hung that Flag at the end You got this old soldiers respect.
thank you for your service. I have always had an extended appreciation for the military. I was in civil air patrol for a few years and learned alot of drill commands, amongst other things too
@@alexanderx3554 You probably have not srcewed around with "modern" Audi/WV manifold bolts. Modern as in around -95'ish and forward. They will most likely snap of at least 50% of the bolts if they are 3 years or older. They are made off SOOOOOOOOOOOO bad quality!
@@therealgrizzly in my experience VW and Audi bolts like to seize but they don't break (earliest I work on is '02). Toyota and Honda hardware loves to just snap immediately.
Great video Jesse. Great video Jesse. Nothing more rewarding than to take something that's broken nobody wants to fuck with and fix it yourself. Great job and thanks for sharing it with us.
Jesse, this video was hitting on all cylinders. Helping out a friend, getting a new project, expert troubleshooting and diagnostics, solid repair techniques, triumphant resurrection in the end, this was a very good video. And I did get a few goosebumps when you hoisted the flag at the end of the video. Well done sir, well done. Randall
Mad Props Man! I heard those dead cylinders before you started that project rebuild. I wasn't expecting that much damage. Good Job, Sir. Cheers from Louisiana.
The flag!!! I love that you treated it with respect...it never touched the ground. Love this country and I love it when other people show our standard the respect it deserves. Good work!
I know the crane is running now. Just a suggestion from an old mechanic, when you had the motor down that far anyway. I would have put new valve seals in it and done a poor man valve seating using a drill and lapping compound . It will Make the valves act like new. And while the pan was off check each main bearing and rod bearing one at a time. It may take more time but in the long run if you find something it’s better to fix it now when the engine is apart. Oh well I wish you well you work hard for what you have . May God Bless you and I love the Castle
Great video. Cold starts look fine. A little smoke at startup, cold is acceptable for an old engine turning to clear or nearly so. Great closing. Brought a tear.
thanks, it has been working pretty good...might get another one next year that is slightly bigger. I wanted the end to be special because that machine has some history
One of the things I love about both you and AC is the love and patience y’all have in working with machinery where others obviously gave up and walked away both you young men bring them back to life. Folks a must watch to the very end...it’ll make you feel so proud and blessed and possibly bring a tear to your eyes. ✌️
Very cool, glad to see this thing live to fight a few more good fights. Props to you for investing the time to get it back in service. I'm sure it will bring Andrew joy.
Hi sir. Firstable I'm from Canary Islands. But for any reason that I don't understan every time I see the last two minutes of this vídeo, that flag onding on the Air and that music I can't stop crying and I fell very proud. Please go on sir on your proyects. BEST regards from Lanzarote 💪💪💪🤘🤘✌️✌️
Great job, Jesse...enjoy your vids, immensely. Hard work ethic and common sense. Getting rare these days and it's refreshing to see you getting the most out of both. And thank you especially for your raising of our flag at the end. Great end to a great video. Keep up the good work, young man.
Yeah I was here earlier at 33 views and it was blocked. So when I saw it up hours later I saw the time and go Yippee I need to get my bowl of popcorn and my beer. !! All good. I like Jesse as he’s the “talkative” one between the two.
Hello Jesse, well done on getting the crane back working. It's very satisfying when you know you will save money using it on your future build. Great to see old machinery brought back to life. Thanks for sharing.
You and Andrew should start a old heavy equipment restoration and sale business. I would buy a machine from you. Great to see these beasts working instead of rusting away in the junkyard.
I've always loved cranes. I worked under some of the best operators in the world for 37 years. They were safe, secure, only taking signals from one person. That way everyone stayed safe. We had a few deaths working under these cranes over the years but mostly caused by lack of safety attention. Never ever lift more than the machine was rated for. That will get you in trouble faster than anything. She sounded pretty decent for an old Pettibone. These cranes made America dreams come true !
There's just something about the Pettibone that I really like! Great to see you get her going again & look I forward to seeing her in action in the future.
Hi... you are one serious machanic! Not giving up on that machine. Nice to see one who !is not a "diesel mechanic" tackle the rebuild... and it paid of nicely going through a buch of problems. And I like how you drive too... turning the wheels before changing direction in a tight spot. Many people don't do that and get stuck.
Watching you torgue the head bolts, and seeing your knees on that frame rail made my old knees ache like an injury. You’re awesome. Keep doing these enjoyable videos.
I watched some dude stall it going up that hill, then bailed out as it started rolling backwards back down that hill.....Claims his early Atc skills taught him when to abandon ship, may have saved his life. Good job on the repairs......On the back, weld another plate to match on the other side and call them push points
I have to say that I wrote that last comment before watching the ending. Your comments regarding the brakes are understood. I loved you final views. Good luck.
Very nice Vid my friend. The smoke you see after you start it is no doubt normal seeing how old the machine is. When it sits, it loads up with oil along with worn rings it will smoke a bit. But nothing to worry about. You did a good job on it. When you were trying to get that oil pan off, it reminded me of when I replaced my oil pan on my Dodge Ram 1500 5.7...lol Took me a good 8 hrs! Had to do the same thing ie...Remove motor mounts, drive shaft, brackets etc, then jack up the motor. A REAL PAIN! Anyway, great job boss!
It is good to see this Pettibone back in service. I know you and Andrew did a lot of work with it on his castle. Nice to see Jessie will be able to make some good use of it too. Terry
Very cool that you took the time to get that going again. Looking forward to seeing it on future projects.
hey Andrew, give the puppers an extra pat from me next time they are around :)
Good to see your up at 2 am.
thanks, It will be a life saver and money saver as well. When I find a nice concrete bucket, it will save $800 every day that I use it. Going to be a lot of pours going on to build my house

It really is, cool to see the two perspectives.
Your intelligence and quick thinking are impressive.
You have a unique ability to balance professionalism with a personal touch.
There’s one of these cranes coming up in my local auction says it’s in operable... but that’s what they said about the last one I bought lol this Looks better suited for me needs!
yeah yeah, like you need ANOTHER project crane..... " But honey, its so i have a crane to fix my other crane when something breaks"
I have a machine shop locally that has a pettibone 30 model for $3500 . its got the old detroit 453 2 stroke diesel in it. its got a 15 ton capacity and the boom is 60'. where are you located?

Fantastic ending to a great video. You live in the best country in the world and it's nice to see someone proudly display that reality.
Jesse, you're the right kind of mate to have, it shows. Here in NZ we appreciate mates like you. Uncle Bob. New Zealand.
Jesus man. You and Andrew are like Geniuses. I was able to fix a busted light fixture at my house. My mom and sis were really impressed. lol.
...good job son...construction sites were teeming with these things in the 60's and 70's, they built America....you have a mighty servant for years...
And you can fix anything on them. No computers or sensors. I buy all my equipment without computers and just rebuild anything worn out. Good as new

Love the perseverance.
This crane recovery and repair video is probably the most gratifying of your or Andrews You Tube productions. Thanks.
Cool to see you got the ol girl up and running again. Great to see old glory at the end!

I appreciate the fact you show alot of the more tedious parts instead of just skipping quickly thru. Allows us to watch or just skip ahead. Thanks

Well to me that looks like just normal cold start smoke and the engine certainly sounds healthy. Great video 👍🏻

Very nice Vid my friend. The smoke you see after you start it is no doubt normal seeing how old the machine is. When it sits, it loads up with oil along with worn rings it will smoke a bit. But nothing to worry about. You did a good job on it. When you were trying to get that oil pan off, it reminded me of when I replaced my oil pan on my Dodge Ram 1500 5.7...lol Took me a good 8 hrs! Had to do the same thing ie...Remove motor mounts, drive shaft, brackets etc, then jack up the motor. A REAL PAIN! Anyway, great job boss!
It is good to see this Pettibone back in service. I know you and Andrew did a lot of work with it on his castle. Nice to see Jessie will be able to make some good use of it too. Terry
