This young man is truly old school; 20 deg no heat in the shop, back breaking work, hand tools and does all his own work proud of you man...love your videos.
As my Dad used to say grudgingly ... Ahhh youth !! A shame it’s wasted on the young..!! LOL... He’s one sharp young cookie . And has acquired & accomplished a lot and apparently has a good time doing it.....
Exactly the neighbor I would love to have and know !
Hard working young man. Much respect sir. Keep it up and you will go far.
@@angryfishing7958 But it’s truly stupid to waste time trying to change those tires. We run the exact same tires on all 32 of our rigs here in Northwest Wyoming my family owns.
Even when they own just one logging truck I showed this to my dad and he said that is what he calls, “PENNY WISE YET DOLLAR 💵 FOOLISH”.
The shop that does our tires only charges $16 a tire. Don’t get me wrong I like him a lot. But I’ve also seen him abuse the living hell out of equipment lol.
And, if you have watched any of his videos for any real length of time, you would have to admit the truth, he does.
We will fire a man that abuse’s any of our equipment just half of what he does. We will. It’s too expensive to be running rough shod with equipment.
I’ve been following him now for over four years and I was actually shocked at what I see him do what I’ve seen him do on his equipment. I do mean SHOCKED. 😮
@@garlandremingtoniii1338 - Back in the late 70s and during college I worked as a tire changer and lubricant tech - I changed truck tires, tractor tires, passenger tires, split rims, huge tires full of water. We used safety cages. We were trained in tire tool safety and human safety. I changed hundreds if not thousands of tires and it paid my college tuition and rent. I really miss the camaraderie of tire changers. It is very hard work. Some men do it all their lives. I did it for 5 years.
I learned long ago, that according to the DOT, it's against the law to drive a truck.
Everyone, you must understand there are more laws in America than humans on the Earth. Everything is illegal, right down to chickens crossing the street in town on Tuesdays. The cops are part of the racket to extract money from you while making you think it's your fault.
@@b6w624 You don't. It would fuck up your economy lol
If you would have US laws, you would have to say goodbye to your comfy work rights too, starting with your nice amount of paid days off
And then complain no one has groceries
DOT are vultures
@@b6w624 - not much learned from WWII then?
The only man EVER who makes a DOT traffic stop into a highly educational and positive video. Andrew, you are my hero.
we dont have that here in my province at all
Government: Your truck is unsafe to drive on our roads.
Roads: 1ft pot holes every 15ft...
@Kingy B oh god, the southern tier area has the worst bullshit when it comes to the roads, they get paid by the hour so 10 years later that 1 mile stretch of road finally gets done just in time to do the 1 mile section connected to it.
#7 FROM pitstown at the cos way to the line in bennington 5.5 mil to pave . .
Paving is not cheap no mater what part of n.y you are in .
Sorry I can't remember the miles done .
Especially in the mountains
New York needs to invest in Concrete roads like Virginia has done
We have a lot of them .
Crockpot
Just found this guy last week , and am pretty sure I would watch him boil water for 2 hours
I've been watching TH-cam videos for years and haven't found myself binge watching a channel as I have yours these past few days. What a gem of a human you are!
I feel exactly the same!
same here i just stumbled onto one video and have been binging since
If you haven't I came from AvE, binge that 1 2
Me too. 👍
Andrew, seems like a lot of people enjoy your videos. I just found your channel a few weeks ago and I really enjoy your videos. As someone who has quite a bit of equipment and live on a small ranch. I have picked up some good tricks from your videos on keeping my stuff humming. Keep them coming.
Him: struggles to get tire off wheel manually
Also him: “I have this tire machine”
Tire machine was not rated for that tire. He needs to learn to use soapy water around the beads. He also has absolutely no clue what the hell he is doing. Don't get me wrong he is at least trying and that is half the battle.
Raf Boy Most old school mechanics don’t use a torque wrench ¯\ _(ツ)_/¯
Raf Boy he’s using a country torque wrench, you torque it to a grunt and a half
@@MrRafboy Keep your 2 cents, not many tire shops torque the lugs. Also, technically one is suppose to re-check the lug nuts for tightness 24 to 48 hours after installation. Who does that? No tire shops I ever dealt with.
@@MrRafboy Good to hear that, more garages should do so.
Government: Oversalts roads so that cars and trucks practically melt
Also Government: why is there all this rust on your truck? Gonna fine you for not maintaining it properly
I got fucked at the scales with a brand new trailer that had some rust on the rims where the paint got knocked off by the lug nuts. the state patrol wrote me a ticket for having rusty rims... fuck them
Bob Builder tht sucks
@@BobBuilder-om4rd Now being a former truck driver myself I am not surprised. Everyone seems to have their hand in a truckers pocket. Glad i don't do OTR anymore.
you prefer icy roads?
Peter Bestajovsky
CItizen : I crashed my car because the government didn't properly treat it with salt. I'm suing.
You are definitely a honest, hard worker. Not many young men your age have your ambition and experience. I commend you!
Ya so do yourself a huge favor and get out of NY.
HE'S NOT OF THIS PLANET.
This guy amazes me what tenacity, he never stops makes me tired. always a good job done !
The thought of Andrew, with his dry sense of humor, talking to the government makes me laugh my ass off
Safety tip, when working on Dayton wheels don’t remove the lug nuts completely until you take the tension off of the wedges, that way the wedges or keepers don’t become projectiles and strike you in the head.
i came to the comment section hoping to find this comment, unfortunatly i dont think he reads or responds to comments ever...but hopefully viewers who are going to attempt to remove a wheel from a spoked hub will read the above comment.
I thought exactly the same thing. A guy I worked with said that one of his mates was pulling apart this type of spider rim and he took the nuts right off, tapped the dog clamp with a hammer and the dog went flying across the workshop floor. I wouldn’t ever want to get hit with one of those buggers!
I have had the retainers pop pretty hard a few times. I am glad I was taught to leave the nuts on.
In my younger days, I worked on ranches and was a track & wheel mechanic in the Army. You, Sir, are one ambitious go-getter. Thanks for showing it like it really is.
@ 2:28 throws out random snow in his pocket xD
Luckily he didn't do that in front of the officer. ;)
Wacky Ninja yeah piss funny right,lol.
Proper hard worker, snow ends up in pockets I guess. Haha
I love how he throws it to the side really quick, then looks down and then back at the camera like you do when you stole a sweet from your parents lol
Maybe it was there on purpose?
"I have this tire machine........." , of course you do Andrew, of course you do................doesn't everybody? Ha ha ha, you are a marvel to watch!
All avenues lead back to that almighty dollar. I can assure you, public safety is a distant second....
he didnt get ticketed...how in any way is that staement true? just dont be a sluggard and drive seomthing safe..apparently common sens eis out the window in your part of town seems pretty basic to me. but not only that i think id want to drive seomthing safe rather than worrying if my brakes are going to work or not at the next stop sign.
This is perfectly accurate.
Good to see someone do so much of the work himself. Good job maintaining your equipment.
In the military we would break the bead by driving over the edge with another vehicle.
Yea. Thats what we do on the farm
Or use your high lift jack.
log loader landing gear breaks a bead quick too!
Hunter Jacobs works too.
yea, ALL that equipment around with hydraulics that Andrew has...
also
" I know that's not the right way to fix it " I rarely see Andrew fix anything the way it should be fixed. lol. I guess I keep coming back out of envy... because if I tried to get away with "fixing" things the way Andrew does there would be craters all over the place where projects had exploded.
I watched Andrew change that tire and now my back hurts.
HE'S UNDREAL..........
It’s nice to be young like Andrew
10:53 looked painful
I know guys who suffer through budd rim tire changes daily, or procrastinate and change a pile one after another all day.
I started watching this channel because of the "safety" and I continue to watch it because of the dedication to actual safety.
This guy has a god damn castle made of cargo containers... I'm speechless.
How have I never noticed that lol.
LMFAO
You can find videos of the build on his channel .
Yep, but I wouldn’t take the Lord’s name in vain to under score it lol. But it’s a free world.
@@robertjennings5357 Its taking it in VAIN, not merely saying it.
I'm a jack of all trades, but I admire you having all the equipment and doing it yourself !!! Saves you lots of money when you know how to fix it yourself... CONGRATULATIONS !!
Great video. You didn't trash DOT for doing their job, explained everything well, then fixed the issues in your typical no-nonsense and thoroughly entertaining manner. I swear I could lose an entire weekend watching your videos.
If i were you i'd be quite proud to have my name on my truck. You've earned a good reputation! Be proud of that Andrew!
"This ought to be pretty easy...." Yea, never say that out loud.... ;-)
So. True.
lol
Yeah old *MURPHY will be standing right behind you.*
Yeah, maybe if the tires weren't frozen....
Oh my God Andrew...Is there anything that you can't do??? You're such a young guy and you know how to do everything.... but what really impresses me is your attitude and the way you seem to do everything effortlessly!!!
You're also a very nice guy, you explain all these complex things very simply and you have a very good head on your shoulders. I hope you realize how special you are but don't ever let it go to your head. Thanks for the nice videos and the education I get while I enjoy watching them!!!
Well said, but i hope that he is not DEMOCRAT,HE'S A VERY HARD WORKING MAN.
Alan Brito prieto lol I don’t think he is he doesn’t seem like the person to be a democrat they don’t seem to work on trucks or build or do anything he can do
I love it when he says “Ok that looks pretty good”.
You’re really good at flying a drone and driving at the same time
Most new ones have auto-follow, they follow the control unit. you can set the height of flight and done
@@ppm4551 true
I've got things to do - but apparently not more important than watching Andrew for two hours today. I need an intervention.
LOL!
Ill give you one. Lol
This is reality video at its best not one bit of fakery. His videos & their editing are first rate and many other could take a lesson from the fact that he SHOWS US what & why he's doing it, rather than talking completely from start to finish which makes us quickly turn off DIY channels w yapping hosts.
It's about the projects & solutions not solely about the man doing the projects.
His clear love of animals and most of all his friends and family shine.
Good job poop
And tighten them brakes all the way up when adjusting.and back them off a 3/4 of a turn.god bless u man .keep up the good work.thats a nice truck
Your passion is off the charts!
Andrew i wanted to congratulate you on your chanel. You have a wealth of knowledge that you openly share to your fellow man. Thank you for your openness and forth coming with what you have learned in your industry. I also appreciate the way you come across on all your videos honest, humble, versatile and with a can do attitude. Thank you and god bless you.
You have a great work ethic. Thanks for sharing.
.
NEVER remove the nuts fully before knocking the Rim Clamps loose with a large hammer my friend. You're going to lose a nut and I don't mean one from the truck.
Been there almost did that.
Didnt know that thanks boss
That's right,very dangerous.
Sorry whys that? I assume the tire had the potential to come flying off when he kicked it and come back at him? And leaving the nuts slightly on and/or hitting it with a hammer instead is best?
@@miatafan The tire isn't the problem. Its the wheel clamp (behind the nut) that is under a extreme amount of pressure. th-cam.com/video/m5n5w2osvnU/w-d-xo.html
This is the video that got into my recommended, and got me hooked on andrews content forever since.
I love learning new stuff. Thanks for posting. (I know your a do-it-yourself kind of guy, but I’d let the young bucks w/ the equipment change the tire out. Your time is more valuable, in the long run)
What a hard job to change your tire, but thank you for your honesty. We all make failures. But if we correctly change them no big deal. Thank you for sharing your amazing video. God bless you and your family
Carsten Andersen qa1@a1@a
You live in my area that pretty cool brother
Thanks for doing all the hard work so we can ride along on your adventures. I really enjoy your videos and learn something from every one of them.
"For those of you who don't know who DOT are..."
You mean the blessed?
Damn Straight, the blessed!
For blessed and foreigners, such as from Poland watching Andrzej adventures ;)
They only exist to exist. Gotta create meaningless jobs for people to keep this bullshit society cycle moving.
In the Netherlands and a lot of the civilized countries in europe have a yearly inspection requirement.
This is done through your local mechanic. I feel a lot safer knowing that all vehicels around me are at least checked yearly.
@@patrickd9551 in alot of US states that is done to in Pennsylvania where I live you have to have a state inspection done by a local mechanic the DOT inspection is a random state Government stop of commercial vehicles as they are supposed to be held to a higher standard its actually all about money businesses have money to pay fines if they did that to passenger vehicles people would vote them away by targeting commercial vehicles they can clam it is for safety from the big bad greedy corporations and the average voter is like ok that makes since we wouldn't dangerous vehicles driving around while its passenger vehicles at vastly out number commercial and for every 1 dangerous commercial are are probably 15 passenger vehicles that are dangerous and very few people care as if a poor motorist looses his breaks and plows onto grandma and kills her there insurance will pay but if its a commercial vehicle your going to be able to sue easier and get alot more money sorry rant over
Good job! The family in the opposing lane appreciates your efforts Andrew!
Always good to see you wearing safety glasses!! This past summer, I had a tiny piece of metal fly up and hit my right eye. It was hell...took about 3-4 weeks to heal and hurt daily. I had to rub this medicated stuff in my eye 3 times a day and obviously I couldn't wear my contact lenses. People, wear safety eyeware!!
Make sure you have your eye's check for glaucoma regularly. Lost the sight in my right eye for a piece of metal becuase of glaucoma for 35 years now.
I don't know how people do stuff without safety glasses like weed whacking for example I wear safety glasses with a timber cutting hard hat with a mesh shield and I still get shit in my eyes! then I see people weed whacking without anything on their eyes!
@@mikewhipkey6863 When I use safety glasses I make sure they are pressed up tight against my face I work in a machine shop Ive had a few things get into my eyes with safety glasses on Now I dont have that problem now since I have a pair of safety glasses that fit my fave really well
When I was younger I lost vision in both eyes (happily at different times) due to cataracts - after surgeries I regained the vision. You DO NOT want to be wandering about working with one eye - so take care of them, it's very easy to prang one or both out. Andrew (and the rest of you folks), you don't want to be trading Levi (your doggie folks) in on a seeing eye dog even if a good one.
Got a flick of steel in my cornea this past January. Had to be drilled out with a dremel tool. Wear it
One of the best things about your channel is theirs not advertising every two minutes, I love all your content Andrew. you have the best channel on you tube in my opinion!
omg i only just realised when i read this comment, its why its so peaceful here! adverts being rammed down our throats all the time is disturbing
Hats off to a hard working guy. Hope you prosper and live long and healthy.
Glad it worked out for you. My first stop by DOT, I immediately told him that he was my first and to please be gentle. I got a good laugh outta that, went through the truck VERY quickly and released me. Good vid.
I learned a long time ago it's well worth the money to have someone else change my tires out.
concice You’re absolutely right. It’s worth paying the disposal fee. Nothing worse than old tires you can’t get rid of.
I dont even chang my own dirtbike tyers haha
I disagree, The Feeling of satisfaction knowing you do it yourself #1. #2 it keeps you in shape. #3 Buy tires at rock bottom p[rices shipped to your door.......And I dont wanna hear,"Its a tax write off having other do it..... I do my own tires also because these shops like to puyt way too much on the studs- Hitting them with a 1 inch gun for 5 seconds after they seat- stretching those studs. Dont like that
@@StayingBack71 rather pay someone to do it ,tires are a pain in the ass
@@ayp1938 Not really once you get the hang of it- After you do a half dozen-It becomes a 5 minute job to dismount and mount- It took me about 6-7 tries to get it ....Now,Its like walking the dog..... Course,You need to be somewhat in decent shape too
Andrew, I just recently discovered your vids. They're awesome. LOVED the one where you're building the deck on top of your container house/fort and the camera work from the drone. Excellent video. Also really enjoyed the driveway renovation 1000 yards up the road from your house. I've been DOT'd 11 times in my 19 years of driving. In the day, the company I drove for ( I was a cement pump operator for a large natural gas production company in Western PA) gave $500 cash to any driver who PASSED a DOT inspection of any level. I've never NOT gotten that money, and think attitude has a lot to do with it. (and yes, you seem to have a great attitude, I'm not criticizing it) I remember one afternoon my supervisor followed me MOST of the way back to the shop, but veered off near his home and I went the last 10 miles without anyone behind me. Less than 3 miles from the shop was a pull off DOT used for inspections, and there was a trooper in there hitting the lights when he saw me. I had truck 18, the biggest piece of shit in the fleet. When the guy got to my window, I had all kinds of paperwork readily available and handed it to him, and he smiled handing most of it back. (weigh slips, acid manifests, etc. ) He did some initial paperwork, then came over and asked me to go through the lights. When he got to the back bumper, he had me step on the brakes. No brake lights. I was genuinely shocked. I'd pretripped the truck and they worked. I even made sure after the job before leaving location. He suggested turning the key on, I did, still no brake lights. He had me start the truck, still no brake lights. At this point, I was standing on the fuel tank, one foot in the cab, looking back to see his reaction. No brake lights, and I screamed "that mutherf______er"!!!!! He laughed and asked who? I told him about my super following me and never saying a word, now he's home sipping a cool one while I flunk my first DOT inspection. He came to the front of the truck, told me to sit tight, filled out my paperwork and handed it all back. Three miles from the shop. He told me to make sure I wrote it up, and get it fixed. I got $500 for that inspection, the dude laughed with me or AT me for about a half hour out of his day, and we parted ways. Now that I look back on that, it was the LAST DOT inspection I've every been in. Now I drive a water truck, nights usually, and never see DOT.
Those aerial shots at the end of the videos are epic. its always cool to see the day going not as planned and then overcoming the issues.
When adjusting air brakes turn the adjustment screw till it stops then back it off 1/4 turn then the rap the brake drum with the wrench it should ring like a bell. That will give you the proper adjustment.
It's cool you do all your own maintenance on your owned truck. I can see you take pride in keeping it safe. Cool drone footage.
Is there anything Andrew can't do?
He can- Weld, Operate heavy equipment Cranes, Excavator etc, Fly drones, drive Class A trucks, change tires, do electrical work, Mechanical work, Automotive body work, Sand blasting, Industrial Painting etc etc etc...
Maybe I missed a video but I have never seen him use an acetelyne torch to cut iron.
@@davidmorse8432 he does in the excavator bucket repair video!
@@garrettscott9427 well ok then, did you ever see him milk a cow?
@@davidmorse8432 I'll keep an eye out!
@@garrettscott9427He is probably working on that video as we speak.👍 moo!
Enjoyed your video. Can I give you a couple of tips. One. When you air up those east coast wheels it needs to be in a safety cage. If that wheel is not seated it can come apart and hurt or kill you. Second. When adjusting that old style slack adjuster. That little sleeve that goes around the adjusting head. You push it in to adjust and turn the adjuster until that sleeve pops up. The adjuster will be flush with the top of the adjuster when it locks. I hope you follow what I’m saying and please don’t think that I’m a know it all. You might already know this. I’m sorry if you do. Some people don’t know. I really enjoy your videos.you do good work. 👍👍👍
Usually those tire machines can take tires off, as well.
Tip: When tightening lug nuts with your impact wrench, you want to skip every other lug nut, until you tighten them all. That way you get a more balanced seat.
3am in the morning and I’m watching Andrews videos. Trying to get some of that insight/knowledge.
I got the same dash cam that ya got in the ten wheeler.
You are one hell of a hard working dude.
"It's not your truck is not safe for the road it's the roads that are not safe for your truck"
Hello, just found your channel and kudos man. I’m 48 and I’m dabbling in possibly starting up a small excavation side business. I lost my dad back in April he was 84 you remind me of what I believe my dad was like when he was young heck even in his 70s he would break his own tires light truck tires I’d catch him trying to do it himself. When he could take it some where. He really was self taught no videos back then. But he did teach me to pay attention to others and you can learn something new and possibly a better way. Like your videos on your kubota excavator on the elec. short. Ok I’ll be watching and I’m a subscriber! Take care and be safe. Chad from Central PA
this is first time see'n this set up .....tip of hat for very young man with such a great work ethic.....got a feelin that there was a very involved older generation in family that put in a life time of putting all we see in motion , and this kid has got all the right stuff to keep all the balls in the air , keep the borrowed money to ZERO if possible , cause you can bet the next bottom can and will come outa nowhere , only guarantee we get is that life is always changing .
Love your videos. Thank you and God bless you from WV!!
I appreciate your positive attitude. I try to keep the same. I decided long ago not to get upset when getting a citation. I figure that there are so many tines I deserve one and never got one that, when I *do* get one, it's the universe correcting itself :)
Love how your shop looks like a castle lol jealous man over here.
I Love these videos man... good to know there is still people who work as hard as you do! I loved the bit at the end filmed with a drone! Awesome videos!!!!!

Welcome To The Department Of Transportation !! They Can Make It Hard On The Little Man !!
A friend of mine got me to break the beads of his truck tyres with my mini digger, worked really well. Blade on 1 side, bucket on the other. I could see your digger in the back ground. Hopefully it can help you out another time, I’ve learned lots watching your vids. Keep it up!
I have the utmost respect for this man, he is an independent hard worker that does not gripe and complain about getting stopped/checked. But instead, updates things with a very positive attitude. I understand we need to have safe well working trucks on the roads and highways, but there are some very large fleet companies that just don't care.
Wow. I counted about 7 things that were done wrong in that tire change alone. I admire your enthusiasm but knowledge is key to trucking down the road safely.
Says that knowledge is valuable but offers no actual advise. Worthless comment.
@2:29
LMAO
Just casually tosses a chuck of snow out of his pocket
what i like Andy is that you do everything yourself, you have the gear to do it. well done
Law and Order every time 👍 Good job dude.
You took care of everything you had to do. Once again being the professional that you are.
DOT stopped our truck (1989 Super Duty) at the dump. $500 dollar ticket because of not having a fire extinguisher. Could not move the truck till one was bought and delivered.
After that, both little dump trucks left the state. We knew that we didn't have it in the budget to run the trucks. Switched to trailers and additional trips. We had 19 trailers when I last counted (Small trailers). We miss out on the bigger work, but that is okay.....no DOT and CDL to worry about.
Fire extinguisher for what? A gasoline car is 100x more likely to engulf everything into flames lol
TheGuruStud cmv are required to have a fire extinguisher, first aid kit, and spare fuses as part of safety related equipment.
Traveling Kaspers World them days are over. If your commercial DOT then 10000 lbs max gross for truck trailer and load. Thanx to our friends in Albany keepin the little guy in shackles
great Video as usual Andrew, tough dealing with those state DOT guys. They can be brutal, the last two tickets I got were in upper state NY on my way to my parents place in Salem. I try to avoid them like the plague!
Love the videos man. As a man - we love hands on projects and love to see someone do it the hard way
I've found that squirting some cheap dish soap along the beads of the tire on both sides makes them slide off the rim a lot easier. Murphy's tire soap is a big help for putting on new tires. I hope this helps. Thanks for the videos!
I’ve gotta say Andrew you are a grafter. Loving the channel and keep up the good work 👍👍
You should tighten up your slack adjusters as far as they will go so the shoes are touching the drum and then back it off 1/2 - 3/4 of a full rotation
CORRECT
@Charles Pappa Yes your a 100% correct I adjusted air breaks for over 25 years learn a few things about them
@Charles Pappa b9vbbbv in CV vv. V 9 b
Brian Jones according to the oem who makes automatic slack adjuster if they aren’t in adjustment they have failed and require replacement. So if yours are out you need new slacks.
“Slide hammer bead breaker thing” I love it
You're an inspiration Andrew I love watching your videos
I’am 13 years old but I LOVE ypur chanel! Like they other people say ”you are a new levle of awesomness!
Think about your future now and if you love this kind of stuff, start living it now! By the time you’re Andrew’s age, you’ll be there.
Get a job ya bum!!!!
William Hayes a 13 y/o getting a job? You do realize thats ILLEGAL in some states and countries,
@@valkyrie5972 illegal? For what? Telling a punk to get a job? LMAO!!!
William Hayes its illegal for them to work at the age of 13, is your head up your ass?
Always something lol.... big thumbs up...I like your set up feller thanks for posting stay safe and profitable my friend
That tyre fitting was a physical workout, well done.
Andrew love your vids brother....one humble clue for you from an old man who has dealt with a bunch of those tires in the past...leave the nuts on the studs and knock the wedges loose with the nuts left on the studs. Those wedges can kill you man. I was shaking in fear for you man. You got lucky this time. Keep the vids coming. Admire your energy and work ethics.
when setting brakes screw all the way in . back off steer axle 1/2 turn . then 1/4 turn on back axles . never count on self adjusters .
"Allright, I have this Tire Machine"
Of course you do! Who does not have one in his garage ;-)
Ulli M only surprise is that Andrew didn’t have three.
TH-cam pushed out this video, and watching it makes me realize how far you've come in such a short time, three short years.
I learn something or twenty each time I watch your videos. Thanks !
I know the DOT can be a pain in the butt but we all know why they stop trucks, To keep the road safe for everyone. One thing I will say for safety sake is when you take a Dayton rim off don't take the lug nuts all the way off, Leave them on when you hit the wedges with a hammer to get them loose ! They are under a lot of pressure and will fly off and can hurt or kill someone when the nuts are off. So leave the nuts on when popping the wedges loose and save yourself a hospital bill. I need to get my old dump truck back on the road , But I know it will take a bunch of work to make it legal again. Keep up the great work and video's. Bandit

Well said. Sense at last.
Love all your videos thanks
My fire extinguisher was only eight years old! You crack me up Andrew.
I was wondering how he was going to mount that tire...
Andrew: "alright I have this tire machine"......
not only is this guy good at his job, he's an excellent video maker.
You will see more DOT this year , the state is 4 BILLION in the hole !!!! The revenue generators are out !!!!
Robert Kavich same issue here in wpg canada, false tickets out the ying yang. What our lawyer said he.was dealing with. Thier out full force. Had to get two dash cames because of a false accusations of the wife driving over 140km/h in a 60, driving our 10 year old daughter to school on a buisy 2 way road at 8am, wet, very bumpy, and frequent school bus stops lol
Not a vehicle imspection unit but.... collecting $ none the less.
the whole thing is a fucking scam
I drive around illegally all the time in a pick up (not commercial) I mean... lacking plates, lacking bumpers rofl. I got a dash cam however. and its pretty damn visible, actually I have no rear view mirror lol I have a dash cam in its spot. Anyway the point here... I've had cops chase up behind me (cause I was kinda trying to get away from them lol so I know he hammered it) I've even had em pull out behind me lights and all to turn into the next parking lot...
I mean I am likely wrong but I credit all that to them seeing the dash camera (and some to the vehicle). I mean, I got nothing else, when your rear plate is in your rear window and you have NO front bumper or plate (under the seat) why the hell else was I not pulled over?
Robert Kavich Yup.
The amount or percentage of the state budget that comes from fines like this is minuscule.
Man you make alot of good videos. I've got a 2 yr son old that is obsessed with tractors and I put your videos on for him to watch all the time. Thanks a bunch and keep them coming.
Thanks
That Castle/Shop/House is really amazing!
That tyre didnt have much tread but it had a load of life left in it.
She’s a beauty man, love your truck!! That thing is a TANK
Great work-I really enjoy all your videos.....Thank you....
Andrew that slack adjuster on the front wheel needs to be cleaned and greased or replaced because that ring that's on that nut you adjusted is a spring loaded ring and when it's working correctly you're supposed to have to push it in in order to turn that adjustment nut, but you were able to turn it without pushing the ring in so the mating surfaces of the nut and ring could be stripped and rounded or full of dirt. That ring is supposed to keep that nut from backing off, and if it doesn't, then the slack adjusters back off quickly, not staying adjusted.
The key is to keep it clean keep it washed out of sight out of mind. The DOT. won't even look twice the biggest thing is when you see them look the other way never make eye contact... lol
When that cop saw Andrews old truck, he couldn't turn around fast enough.
@@mph5896 thing is a paddock bomb from hell do you blame him haha
the excavator bucket or backhoe outrigger makes short work of bead breaking and demounting
So does the bead breaker on the tire machine.
Run over the tire with your truck is quick...
set it on fire, no more tire
