Worse part is the fact it'll go back in harder than it came out! Love the videos guys, keep them coming
One smoking, One vaping and the boss man working!
Love your content as always. Keep the knowledge coming. Tough little burger to get out, It's going to be interesting getting it back in. I'll definitely catchya at the next one. You all stay safe!!
Thanks for another great video Andy.
G'day Andy . That old JCB has done a lot of work for you. JCB and their dealers can learn a lot about customer service from this video. See you on the next one.
Hey y'all ! You're quite a family of talent determination cooperation and skill ! We have 8 kids and we all worked together too but we are suburb dwellers ....so it's a different life but I really admire and appreciate your team work for the goal as a whole. Great job mom and dad and great job kids ! You are greatly blessed...yay for family ! 🙂
Great. Video Andy. Just to short. I like the 45 minute ones. Thanks Andy keep them coming.
Your a good man Andy, I pinched a nerve in my back again, yesterday and now I know I'm getting old. Its hard getting thangs done half throttle.
That looks like a real pain to get out. You made it look easy though. Great video.
When I had to remove the main boom cylinder on my Massey digger,loader alone ,I used a piece of wet timber underneath it when pulling out ang replacing the cylinder. It slid easily and I did the job alone. (no one is ever about when you need them !!). I was pleased to see both tines on the fork lift sharing the load since the tip of one tine snapped. There is a bridge bar with a central hook which clamps to the tines available .
Busy shop, good work!!
Your recent videos have been excellent. Love it when you explain and then show the work. Great job!
Really enjoyed the video. Thanks
Definitely looks like a challenge Andy.
I think you have the right idea by cradling the cylinder with the gantry crane. At least you can support both ends going back in and adjust the height angles separately to get that bottom pin back in.
Hey Andy !
That jcb is almost brand new .
Good job !
Thanks Andy Hourigan the great and have a good day !
It’s the old one
That cylinder job looks like a real job to fix. Pretty tight quarters to mess with that heavy cylinder. I hope it goes well guys.
That was a bit of a bear getting that out. Hopefully that cylinder is good. Thanks for sharing Andy.
Great video Andy
Great vid Andy 👌
Hi Andy if you had a slipper over the fork you could reach in with the fork to place cylinder in . Lift the boom up and rest it 9n the gantry giving access under boom
Can't wait to see how you get that cylinder back in there but I know you guys do it. Good luck.
Hi Andy I smile when I read how many people think that’s the new JCB. I drive one daily loading a feeder wagon with 16500 hours on it.I see the rear pivot point on the boom hasn’t been welded ours had the bushing holders break away from the boom after a hard life. Check for wear before you fit the new pin and bushings in the ram as a tight ram and excess sideways movement in the boom isn’t great as I am sure you know. I am not a keyboard mechanic
Good luck fixing your telehandler Andy
Man, that is a job on the JCB !!
If you can wait, have a bushing made up locally from aluminum nickle bronze! It will be a superior product!
Keep up the good work, JIM 🤩
So true
Andy i have been watching your video's for years, if my back wasn't bad after 3 surgery's i would be knocking at your door for a job. Love working on things and figuring out what makes it tick, plus you explain things. Love your ability to handle about anything and the way you and the rest of family do what it takes to make the farm life true and easier. Love your video's. I know jarred don't like to be on film other than burnouts or pulling trucks out of the trees, by the way any updates on that project yet. Take it easy Andy and will be here for many more years hopefully do to my health watching your video's.
Nothing yet
Hi lift boom up put 12 foot box section between chassis, and under side of boom , lot easier to get ram in and out , I use hiab to swing cylinder , watch the side window !
Awesome job.
This repair is clearly in the " mongeral " category ! Grease lines etc on the newer machine will get a critical checkover no doubt .
Jerods job on the w9 not a lot of fun either .
Thanks for sharing buddy
Never ending battle eh Andy!
Keep an eye on that rear boom pivot, ours at work has worked its way out before.
Been there Andy .As you would say a complete mongrel of a job.Biggest problem we had was getting new pin in had to takewheel off and get bigger hammer 🙈🙈🙈
Big fan off videos.keep them coming thanks Andy
Yeah gonna be fun putting it in
Great video, thanks
Next Harbor Freight trip pick up a couple of their cheep plastic white cutting boards, they make real nice sliders to put between heavy steel parts when trying to slide/wiggle them into tight places. would make a beg difference trying to slide that cylinder into the JCB
Andy you could use a lathe the way that part like pines and bushings that take a month to get if you had a lethal you could mechanic one out and back together the same day or the next day.
Thanks
Not a slow day or moment in Andy's shop, you get one thing in and fix it and you have the next project sitting outside ready to be brought in to get worked on in the meantime Andy has another project sitting outside waiting to get worked on by either Jared or the boys
Can't imagine the cost of parts that go through your shop Andy and how much you save by working on it yourself and fixing it vs taking it to town and have a dealer fix it for you. Alot of knowledge in your shop and don't let it go and in the meantime Andy is bringing in new knowledge in alot younger age and doing excellent work welding on the box Andy and company have been making for his Uncle I believe.
Lots of work lots of fun. Have a good day
Nice job on that cylinder boys. That's a little bit of a bear I've done that job on ours. I hope you get your parts and timely fashion, our JCB has been in the shop since I would say the end of December early January… Waiting on a couple pressure transducer's and a park brake switch which that actually showed up. On top of that I've got computer issues with it, JCB was out with their software the other day but they haven't gotten anywhere with it either. Have a good rest of your Sunday man hopefully you guys do something fun out in all that nice fresh snow before this week and it's all going to mail and turn everything into a sloppy muddy mess lol. Take it easy Andy
Boom right up as high as it'll go. Hold it there with gantry. Remove bottom ram pin. Leave top ram pin in. Pull lever to retract ram. Ram base retracts & clears housing. Now you can get at the lower pin eye. Just, but you can. If it's tight, raise boom with gantry a bit more. Fit new pre-ordered bushings, fix grease line in-situ, do hoses, in situ.. Extend ram back into position.. fit pin back in.. go do teleporter work. That big job just became a very short job.. There are plenty of shortcuts that can save a lot of mucking about. I used dick about a lot with these JCB's for customers. :-)
Andy you may want to look into building a boom that slides onto your forklift forks we had one and I built 2 more when I worked at JD was a handy tool hat hooks on the end and half way up long with a couple shorter lifting staps and chains i think I ised it daily the fabricator we had befor myself built a slip on 3point hitch for moving equipment also thinking your equipment would mostly be to big for that thought
I like the part where the guy in the beard and camo is vaping
Excellent video that is heavy looking cylinder it's a good thing that you guys found the broken pin and bad bushing
Well that's cool!
Nice video
Looks like a tough job, you can do it
👍👍
Sarge looks like a dragon!
real shops don't have " no smoking" signs......i like it
It is refreshing to see these days
With all of the other stuff they are breathing, what harm is a little tobacco smoke?
Glad I work for the state. No smoking in the shop.
It doesn't matter what brand of equipment you own if you are using it it will show its week points.
Very creative way to get that out! Are you going to repack the cylinder while its out so hopefully you won't have to take it back out anytime soon?
No I’m not
That’s a common problem I know JCB The bushing and pin goes bad I seen a few other videos on that also
Did the broken grease line cause the wear on the bushing?
Possibly
You are not afraid to tackle any problem! Nice procedure remove if that main boom cylinder. I’m curious, how many hours on machine to have that bushing fail? Or Is it due to grease line being broken off?
Hope you can get parts quickly, maybe Brandon can help! Don’t think he can help anyone!

Bit late but Warren (western truck and tractor repair) has a video on this exact job
You guys were lucky that you noticed it before someone got hurt. That could’ve been real bad.
You need to get that man a taller ladder!!!
If I remember right that JCB is still new. Living in UK I feel a bit guilty that British junk has let you down so early on. When you get a press, I would also get a lathe. You could then produce your own shafts and bushes. Good luck with getting JCB support on this.
PS: other subscribers know a lot more about your kit than I do.
On what planet is that thing "new"?
This is the old one he has.
That’s the old one it’s done like 10 thousand hours 😂
Your equipment doesn't have any wear then at 12000 hours. Andy seems to use his equipment.
Andy, sorry to go so far back but I just rewatched a video you did a year ago reviewing the harbor freight titanium 45 plasma cutter. Really liked your review but has it held up? We are thinking of buying one for our hobby shop here in Florida
Thanks for a lot of good videos
Yes it has served me well
Andy why not fab up a jib for the forklift to you that bit of extra reach. Keep up the good work.
I should
That was hard to get off. Why do you think it came apart Andy? Any ideas seem like it should last longer? Just my thoughts. Thanks
Wear and tear
I'm nearly sure Warren from Western Truck and tractor did a similar repair to a jcb telehandler in one of his videos a few years ago
I was just thinking about that repair. At least Andy has help to get it back in!!
@@markreetz1001 me too funny how some of us watch similar channels
@@valvemonky4734 I guess we are drawn to similar things. It makes sense, but with all that is out there, you might think finding common platforms would be a little more difficult. I can't tell you how many channels I've seen Scruffy61, or Scroty McBoogerballs on.
👍👏👏👏
😀😀👍👍
Hey Chief Andy . when you have buyed the Caterpillar telehander .that machine would ve stronger as Jcb !!!
Jcb is not the cheapest buy .the have fine machinery and tractors .but its not the strongest machinery !
Best greetings from north west germany from Bert .
This is the old one
That’s really something that there’s been a breaking it already what happened or should I say why did I break
Big Sarge with the vape just a choochin'. You ever try that thing Andy? Always great videos.
😂 "hey Sarge let me hit that thing a couple times see if it's any good"
No I haven’t
new machines come with new bushings😁
Yes and this is the old one
Andy. You bought that machine new. What about warranty? Or do you just do the work and they adjust it?
Yes we bought new about 8 years ago
... yours Gays somoke in the shop?...big hazard... good luke whit that. All de best for You and Your Family. From Portugal.
Hey there Andy, I hope you're all well and good!
If you said I must've missed it, but that obviously has a remote grease point, so has the line been off for sometime and the grease hasn't been making it to that pin and bushing, or was it burned up with grease?
I've noticed that work on the forage box has been at standstill, I figured you were waiting on your Uncle's check to clear, I know what it's like dealing with family, especially when there's money involved......😉
It won't be long before you'll have to stop all of this indoor mechanic/fabrication work, and get outdoors and start farming again.
I hope y'all have a good one!
"Nothing Runs Like A Deere" 🦌👍🇺🇸
You can hear welding in the background, so I'm guessing the girls were working on the box, and the guys were working on the telehandler. Sometimes when stuff breaks you have to drop what you were doing and fix it.
@@arvenski9503
Why is it that my amazing sense of humor is lost on some people, just going right over their heads? 🤔
Grease probably has something to do with it
@@FarmingFixingFabricating
Like my old pappy always said: "grease and oil is cheaper than parts" 👍
I love the thumbnail for this video haha. Everyone cant believe you're just paying guys to stand around and smoke instead of working on that brand new Telehandler😂
Its the old telehandler.
I know lol sarcasm buddy
It looks like he was vaping should not be allowed at work what he does on his own time his his business
@@dsvidhill3409 your probably one those mask pushers
lol
Time to polish and some new hood fender mud flaps on the w9 I know I keep on ya 🤣
Yes
That is what you call a real Mungral
These comments are something else that’s clearly the old tele-handler 😂😂😂
Yeah I know that's what I was thinking lol
I was just wondering how many cows you have and how many acres do you farm
Few thousand
I realize that that is a pretty hefty cylinder for the telehandler, but considering how much it will lift and how far out it can lift it, I thought the cylinder would be even bigger than that being that it is the sole lift cylinder..
There is an auxiliary one as well
@@FarmingFixingFabricating Good to know. If the main goes out with a load on it...........that wouldn't be good I wouldn't imagine.
hi Andy jared andrew,gals,can you put a plow or bucket on that jcb telehandler,good video.guy was smoking in shop ha,ok see ya Andy becareful
Yes
How is the push bucket working
Good
gone fishing
What's going on with the John Deere
Engine rebuild or reshim sleeves.
Waiting for some parts
i am getting problem with my JCB 541-70 boom not function in/out. what is the defected with the hydraulic system and electrically?? i come from Seychelles a private company.
Question on a 540_170 steer problem when u select front wheel steer only the rear steer also
Your sensor that centers axle isn’t working
@@FarmingFixingFabricating will check it tomorrow
Its good to see you let your guys indulge in their bad habits in todays society you cant smoke anywhere anymore, I smoked and quit three times this last time im done for good, if you want to know the truth i like to smoke. One thing for sure you always have something to do all the equipment you have.
Weren't those "vape" pipes that the guys were puffing on ?
that the old one or new one?
Old one
New sub here. Andy, who are the other two mechanics with you.? Are they also related to you? Thanks
No they aren’t
Isn't that telehandler fairly new??? (possibly under warranty??)
They have 2. I'd guess by the rust on the exhaust this is their older one.
It’s the old one
A metal lathe and milling machine?....hmmm! You'd just have to buy something to go with them!....lol
I guess there's a good few hours on that machine
Tell the big fella to put down the Vape pen...He looks like puff the magic dragon
lol
I am out in left field commenter and thinking about what went through your mind when you shot the first video... thinking maybe will i or not have enough interesting things on my farm??? Ha ha ha, ya.... no doubt this video was never ever considered possible to happen. That was before you had this piece of equipment but something fits this scenario somehow. Nothing sacred or bullet proof. Its on this farm so we will either be making another one or something crazy. I mean how are the odds of this breaking this machine?
Sometimes you just never know
Who broke the new telehandler??🤔 Bit rough??🤷♂️🤦♂️
This is the old one
@@FarmingFixingFabricating explains it!! Worn out!!👍
And you that’s your new machine I thought it was still under warranty
It’s the other one
That looks like it’s in great condition that’s why I thought that and I thought maybe that was the new one OK that’s right you do have two of them I forgot that
Has that cylinder ever been repacked? It's out...
No it hasn’t
Sir how can open boom pipe internal plz make a video
I’m not sure what you are asking
Dear team our jcb 531-70 model 2011 telehandler have reverse and forward problem , when we start machine after 40 or 45 min gear working fine . after stop engine and start again same happened. please can any good solution or advise
Could be a number of things
I want to cause of root.
Thanks for reply When gears is warm up is working fine.
Thankful
I want to cause of root
Is that the older or newer Telehandler ? They never make any thing easy to work on do they? That gantry is a life safer in many jobs that you do in the shop !
Old one
Looks like you sure keep busy with all the broken stuff
They run pretty hard, isn't much sitting around going on there 😆
Definitely did not look like a fun job how old is that jcb
