I have only had luck with push bolts like that maybe 1 or 2 times normally the bolts just snap l. Oddly enough it worked for me yesterday on a smaller izuzu truck
I see the comments about the brake dust im 31 got 14 yrs heavy equipment and garbage truck technician even with brake clean still got them black crusties at the end of a day i struggle with some safety squints fogging like crazy with a mask on. So normally i choose the glasses over the mask hahaha. Just offered a mobile forklift tech position ive done small repairs on em but have done hydraulics and advanced electronics diag for most of my career i think the learning curve will be fine. Just trying to learn some of the lift specific information. But you make some of the better repair content ive seen on YT thanks brother been debating going independant myself not sure im ready for the leap tho. Im up in chicago btw keep going brotha
Good stuff man, been watching these as I’m starting as a Crown tech in the next month. My only recommendation is to wear just anything to cover your nose and mouth when dealing with brake dust. I’ve seen what that stuff looks like under a microscope, and I don’t mess with it. I use a 3M respirator rated for Asbestos handlers.
Very good point. I use that as well with other components, but never on axles. I’ll give that a try next time. Do you use the loctite brand or a different brand?
@@joepacheco4038 potentially, yes. Once you pump it up, does it hold the whole time? Or does it go back down to the floor? In that case, the master cylinder or wheel cylinders are bad. Wheel cylinders could be leaking internally.
@@theforkliftguy going to let you think about w/cylinder internal leaking. Not trying to bust em , have more years as field mechanic , plus shop foreman for Cat then I can remember lol seen just everything with lift trucks . Started with Towmotor and ended with Toyota 1965 - 2016. Have a lot of knowledge to pass on if I can remember lol be careful stay safe

@ 4:17 Spanner nut and Locking Washer. I don't want to sound like a know-it-all, It's been so long but whoever it was turned to me with a glare when I was young, "Spanner nut and locking Washer", he growled. I guess that's why I never forgot.

Brings back memories I did that for 40 years I miss it in a way I've had some fun getting them drums off at times when everything has broken up inside happy days . 👍👍🏴🦊
Those axles have two threaded holes that you can run the same bolts into to pull the axle right out. Also, when the brakes can be "pumped up" that usually indicates air in the system and/or the shoes need adjusting out.
@@joepacheco4038it's actually faster to replace entire assemblies including backing plant and park brake cables, plus it's a complete brake job, versus going back to replace park cable, labor isn't cheap, around $175.hr, dealer rate

Why dont you use brake clean to mitigate all that asbestos dust. You just thats a bad practice your learned with the blower and dust amd no mask. Gotta look after your health my guy. Your young now but all that catches up to you
whoa that's a fancy dark titanium impact you got there. New truck, new impact? Elmer over here making moves eh?
Real G’s move in silence like lasagna 😂 🤫 thanks man.
Full watch Party this morning at the Office! Nicely done
What an honor! Thank you Josh!
24:13 OH DAMN YOURE THE MAN ELMER!! We gotta send you our new hat crew pack!!
Instead of beating on the axle hub, Yale/Hyster has spots were you can run the bolts into to pull the axle hubs out.
You’re 100% right. I noticed that as I finished the second side. Good catch.
Faster with BFH. Jack bolts last resort @@theforkliftguy

awesome work yet again and very detailed. 👍👍definitely need one of those impact drills though for real! waiting patiently for that truck tour lol 👍👍

LOL around here we call brake jobs just bj's so I couldn't stop laughing throughout the first minute and a bit of the video hahahahha
😂😂😂😂 I wish I would have known this before filming. I used some poor choice of words.
Je suis Français et je travail également sur du Hyster, j’adore vos vidéos! 👍🏻
Why you don't wiret English instead of franch 😂😂😂
@ Car je suis français tout simplement, celui qui veut me comprendre traduit comme tu l’as fait 😉
Keep doing these videos man, I’m still learning and your content is a gold mine of information. Practical application gold. Thank you!
I appreciate the support brother! I got lots of content coming soon 🔥🙏
Can’t wait! Been watching your videos all day, just found your channel. Best out there for real!
Good content, as a fellow plant/forklift fitter watching from the UK i enjoy your Videos. Keep it up 👍
Thank you, Chris! 🙏
You are the MAN! Make more videos get a patreon bro you be a hit
I have a patreon 🤘 link in the bio
Wow excellent video
cool channel, nice truck setup, subscribed.
Great video bud ,keep'm coming!
@@Terry_Baker thank you! 🫡🙏🏻
Good job the wheel leaning up the forks slide it under the truck or block the side aswell ive know them tilt cyls creep back 👍👍🏴🦊

I find anaerobic sealant does a pretty good job for axles as well.
Very good point. I use that as well with other components, but never on axles. I’ll give that a try next time. Do you use the loctite brand or a different brand?
Me personally i use the Permatex brand works pretty well, i use it alot when im re sealing drive units, drive motors etc! Btw love the videos man
@@dannyperez9917 nice! i appreciate it Danny.
Official hyster is to use loctite 515 but
@@lewisdonald766 I have some 515. I use that next time for sure!
If you can pump up the pedal and it holds , wouldn't that be a brake adjustment needed?

@ we definitely needs more guys like you sharing your knowledge. There’s not many with experience out there.

@@ColinAtkins-j3h still have a Towmotor lift, it's a 510P. Use it around garage.
Only recommendations are anaerobic flange sealant and using a reverse bleeder will make it easier to one man bleed the brakes

You’re correct. No worries, I’m actually really bad at remembering technical terms and I’m trying to get better at it as I’m filming lol.

Yes sir! 👍🏼 you’re 100% correct. Thank you for catching that.
When you find out that brakes can be purchased back plate full assembly then your day gets way better🎉
@@bravodad62 where do you buy that???
Maybe for a plant mechanic. Hard sell for field mechanic. 48 yrs as a field mec very few customers want to spend extra, they have a yearly budget.
@@joepacheco4038it's actually faster to replace entire assemblies including backing plant and park brake cables, plus it's a complete brake job, versus going back to replace park cable, labor isn't cheap, around $175.hr, dealer rate
Instead of hammering the axle out there are two threaded holes offset to allow bolts to push the cover out. It's a lot easier.
@@nathanmack5514 you’re right 💯 i noticed that a little too late
I work for mhs. Great company . .imma road tech
Nice! Yes, they are great people. Tanner is the man.
I always use brake cleaner 1st then blow it out,less dust to worry about
Smart move. I’ll try that next time.
