Oh those "do-it-yourself" hydraulic hose fittings bring back some unhappy memories ! Back in 1980 I was running a log truck up in Ossipee, N.H., and it seemed that every time I got way in the woods a line would blow, and usually when it's freezing cold ! Cutting that steel braid with a hacksaw is always fun, and screwing it together with a couple of adjustable wrenches. Of course air valves would freeze up while you were loading, so you had to try to find some dry leaves and small sticks to build a fire under the valves, being careful not to set the truck ablaze due to all the hydraulic oil soaking the entire underside. Fun times for sure !!
I think Matt shared the link to Sam's channel in one video. Matt always mentions Sam, and rightfully so, but I think Sam's link has been shared once, and Sam has done really well from that share.
@@mikeabbott2396 For me it was the generator video his work on that was amazing I don't think anyone else has the Patience to get an engine that stuck going
Sam, great to see you and your family working together. Your son will never forget this time spent with him. I am 81 with great grand children and my sons tell me how much they learned and enjoyed working with me. Your video content is great, keep it coming. My best from West Texas.
Worked in a municipal garage in michigan, we use to make all our hoses using the same method, but we used a Ridged pipe threading machine to hold the hose while threading the new end on it, handy tool to have available when equipment was out plowing snow on a Sunday night and breaks or blew a hose.
From part 1, I thought Sam was buying this bulldozer for the working transmission only and was going to do a trans swap into his 1st bulldozer. Somewhere I missed the change of plans. Thank you Sam for this video.
Sam, after spending a fortune on hydraulic hoses (no, I can't afford a crimping machine), I started ordering my hose in bulk, and buying those field replaceable fittings. I have never had a problem with them. Thanks for showing their application.
Nice to see you had no problems putting the cylinder back, on your own Sam, it is just a matter of keeping the cylinder parallel to the bore and it goes in as easy as you found. Last one I had to do was 35 yrs ago so nice to see a youngster doing it for himself! Well done, as to all the other work you have done, well it was as expected of your skill level, NICE. I love watching you and Matt working together, two younger men who want to keep this old stuff going, and are doing a fine job of it, as they learn and transfer each learnt skill to another project! Hope you and your's have a Merry Christmas & Happy new Year, and look forward to seeing you in the new year!
thanks for keeping a machine out of Maryland's already over filled landfill.. most all Maryland's old machines just end up a pile of rust in the landfill.
Sam, I know the good feeling of having what you need "in stock" & on the shelf, there's nothing worse than having to stop a project over a $20 fitting you have to order. Thank God for Amazon Prime!! Nice shop Sam!!
Love the “field service” fittings, got me out of a lot of binds when i worked for a big company that ran power all over the place underground and backhoes/trucks would get hoses ripped off all the time
I like your monster pick tool,looks handy. Those insulated rubber gloves are great for working in snow too. Also added to a rainsuit in cold seasons rain. That setup for the gland retainer looks the best of the ones Ive seen,espescially for heavy situations. Emptying the belly pan is a good idea. A fire in that stuff has baked a few crawlers hard. Nice work,really nice shop. Youre a lucky man!
I love hearing that turbo spooling up. Just doesn't get any better than that. Insert several Tim the toolman grunts! Sam and family have a very Merry Christmas.
We use a 15 gallon surge tank with a short ~10' large diameter whip for our 1" air guns, its a little clunky, but you can get a short burst of all the beans out of any air line. figure any time you are going to drag out a 1 inch gun you probably are not going to be overly inconvenienced by dragging out a surge tank too. Great use for a cheapo air compressor that has died but still has a good tank and wheels.
I like this. Free lessons in how to diagnose and revive old equipment. And you can hang out without getting in the way. Although I miss the smell of fuel.
MERRY CHRISTMAS, SAM and family! The little guy is cute as heck! 😋 Matt at Diesel Creek got me into your channel! I still gotta watch the video on the latest installment of the Cleveland diesel! I love anything 2 stroke! You are growing on me like Matt and Derek (Vice Grip Garage) did! It really helps this paraplegic wheelchair using Detroit diesel lover cope! I can’t begin to express how much y’all guys give me something worth waiting for each week! I almost got wiped out by hydrogen sulfide gas day before yesterday when a part on the drain of my antique sink in my basement bathroom broke and ruptured the waste line on the water seal side of the vintage drum trap! A friend who was helping me me nearly passed out from it too, and we both got poisoned! It was from the septic tank and was not a good scene since that gas is highly explosive too, and we had to open the door in 4 degree weather with wind to vent it! If not for a delayed ignition Beckett AFG oil burner that gets draft blower going before spark and oil flows and ignites, allowing the hydrogen sulfide to likely burn harmlessly in the boiler combustion chamber, we may not have had a house or been alive right now! It was a critical situation for a bit! 😳 That gas is DEADLY-cuts off oxygen while simultaneously poisoning you and is heavier than air. My plumber friend said we almost had a legit disaster and could have died, all because of a busted 1-1/2” drain pipe! Scary! Cheers man.
I worked on forklifts for 50 years on the road , making hyd lines with reusable fittings, and also crimp fittings the reusable fittings we had starter pins that would fit down the male part to get the fittings started , sometimes we would just use different size, Phillips screwdrivers down the fitting to get it started , old trick is to use a Tapered punch, with oil to open the hose a little then start the male end ! We had sizes 4-12 in van stock and so much hoses it was funny! You need a good Vice also LOL
Great video longer than usual, down to Earth and saw some behind the scenes stuff we wouldn't usually see. Happy Christmas and enjoy the holidays all at Dr Mix
Great video bro, it will be complete once the blade is fitted. Seen Clinton and Keven do lots of hydraulic cylinders since I have followed C&C over the years. Safe travels over the silly season. Ken.
Love to hear you talk about getting stuck, slugging down 79. Born and raised south hills pgh. Pa guys have great channels. Keep it up scrappy and diesel creek.
Hey Sam, for anyone who hasn't used a steam washer / cleaner it's day and night difference from a straight pressure washer. But, everyone saw the potential downside of steam. Thank Goodness you weren't trapped underneath when the hose broke.
I like watching people do stuff that know what they're doing, Sam you're pretty good to watch man you're interested and you're not a problem waiting to happen LOL
Watching your struggles from afar away in a much warmer environment here in Australia, we only have to deal with the other end of the scale the real hot weather is to come today being Sun 22/12 with a toasty 41 deg celcius . Seeing how the oil dipstic got stuck really puts a new spin on cold not one part of me wants to experience the cold like that, i mean we have flys in the heat they can be real friendly trying to get in ya ears and mouth, eyes even have to put some cardboard on top of a can to stop the buggers going in doing backstroke you only have to experience that once in youe lifetime to not let it happen again. Keep cranking out the cool content thanks Sam.
Yes your attitude is awesome. Id be mother fin every little part that was being difficult. I wish i had tor attitude. Your attitude alone makes everything you do look easy. Great job and really like your channel brother, keep up the good work... Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas from Ohio!
For future reference, put hose clamps around the seals if they are tough to get in the cylinder barrel and let them sit for a little bit so they shrink
I saw a guy that used a Grader blade he had modified to fix an Excavator in which he used it to grade a drainage channel in a farmers field. For a moment there I thought I had found your missing blade. 😂 I hope when you replace the broken pressure washer hose you can find a quality hose as the market has been flooded with Chinese junk hoses which are worse than your broken one right out of the box!😮. Thanks for the great video Sam & Son .. Merry Christmas 🎄🎁☑️👍🙏😃📸📷🎆🎊😀😁
Great video Sam as always got a chuckle out of your little boy 🙂wanting to help. Thanks for all your videos and a very Merry Christmas to you and your loved ones!
Great job , lots of tips and knowledge in this video , bless you and your family Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all of your family , keep the videos rolling like them all , Thanks for Sharing
Hello Sam excellent video loved it you and your family have a merry Christmas give the little man his own tool set he will be helping before you know it
It started right up must have loved that new oil. Got the tubes set right thanks to the little helper. If yo0u find a blade he will help you with that too
Excellent cylinder repacking job young man. Looks like you have an apprentice coming to the channel, looks to be full of life, ready to help dad out. The ole dozer is in pretty decent shape from what can be seen on the cam anyway. Thanks for the update Sam, enjoyed watching.
27:44 if you do two complete laps instead of one when slinging it will stay in place a lot better and not slide as easy. We use it on pipes, cable etc when pulling and its surprising how much difference it makes. You can use it with a sling on a rope as well. If you do three laps thats what climbers call a prusik knot.
It's amazing how good this project is considering the expectations. Good job keeping your cool. I'm impressed with your coolness and skill. I was Master Insturctor in the hydraulics division of the Army Engineer School and I'll bet I made thousands of hoses as teaching aids and rebuilt as many cylinders. You have a handsom boy, he must take after mama. viewed in San Diego, California USA currently 79 degrees.
There are 2 td 25s south of me for 20-25 for the pair. And a friend dad has a td25 here by me. Also, Here by Me there was a kw900A with a factory kt/a 19 600. That was a cool truck
Happy Christmas to you and you family. You need to get your son involved more as it was funny when he got his hands dirty 😂😂. Happy Christmas to everyone.🎄🎄🎄
Sam she is a beautiful majestic beast, I love them old giants examine what she has pushed ,quanity , where she worked and by how many operators and if she was lucked after all her life. We know you'll do her justice Sam.
It don't get no better than a Diesel creek and a scrappy video back to back"😅 Sweet"
Absolutely 👍
Merry Christmas Sam!
Your positive attitude is an inspiration for all of us Thanks Sam

How much pressure are those hoses rated for?
Scrappy Sam's got 100K subscribers! CONGRATULATIONS MAN! You're a big time youtuber now!
and doing it without riding coat tails!
Yeah, what they said Sam, congrats, that snuck up on me.
I think Matt shared the link to Sam's channel in one video. Matt always mentions Sam, and rightfully so, but I think Sam's link has been shared once, and Sam has done really well from that share.

Get rid of diesel Creek he is a hacker a boat anchor collector of junk you start with shit you end up with shit
After 45 years of fluid power experience I was happy to watch someone else remove Teflon and backing rings. 😂
Sam is so knowledgeable about everything!!! Love how he explains what he’s doing makes for a great video fun to watch.
That Dozer deserves a chrome stack and a new flapper😊
Here in Australia we call those flaps "Dink dinks".
What you get when you combine hi IQ & high common sense you get Sam working like he does 🧐👍🏻👌🏻
Had a good laugh about your son looking at his now black and grasy hands, going "Uh-oh", and walking off-screen. XD
Another good morning when Scrappy has one up! Thanks Sam!,
I like your videos' because they contain real work on machinery.
Love the video Sam and Son working together and Mom watching her son too .
22:04 - That engine purrs like a lion ready to pounce! You can tell this Dresser TD25G still has a lot of life left in it!

"An attempt was made!", I love it. Thanks Sam you're making my Saturday night
That was quite the gush of hydraulic fluid dumping out really quickly there! I don't think much could've caught all that.😅😂🛢️🤷🏻♂️
From part 1, I thought Sam was buying this bulldozer for the working transmission only and was going to do a trans swap into his 1st bulldozer. Somewhere I missed the change of plans. Thank you Sam for this video.
Love seeing your son "helping out" I have three and they grow up fast... Nice work!
Congrads on 100K subs.
Thank you!
Another great afternoon watching Sam and his family. It doesn’t get any better. 🔧👍🇬🇧
Sam, after spending a fortune on hydraulic hoses (no, I can't afford a crimping machine), I started ordering my hose in bulk, and buying those field replaceable fittings. I have never had a problem with them. Thanks for showing their application.
I really like your little helper. Can't wait until he gets older

"we'll swap engines if we have to, no big deal" 🤣

Refreshing to see a youtuber that actually fixes stuff he buys instead of letting it rust away. Great video!
What a little helper dad
We use a 15 gallon surge tank with a short ~10' large diameter whip for our 1" air guns, its a little clunky, but you can get a short burst of all the beans out of any air line. figure any time you are going to drag out a 1 inch gun you probably are not going to be overly inconvenienced by dragging out a surge tank too. Great use for a cheapo air compressor that has died but still has a good tank and wheels.
Definitely impressive cold start. It's crazy warm in NZ so must be cold over those ways
Quite cool here in Tassie ATM, it's just nice to be not cooking. Happy Christmas mate.
Your an amazingly talented man. I love your channel. It's great when you and Matt work together also. Can't wait for the next one.
A perfect way to start a Saturday.
I like this. Free lessons in how to diagnose and revive old equipment. And you can hang out without getting in the way. Although I miss the smell of fuel.
Your son looks like he is ONE COOL CAT, Sam!!! Hope you and your family have a VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS, and a HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
That engine cold start awesome nothing wrong with that power house!
As an airctaft mech. fo 45 years, if you could train a 3-5 year old, that would be the optimal size for working and inspecting. Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas to you and your family. Cute son doing dad stuff.
What a fantastic motor sound!!!!
That young man has so much to learn…He will get used to dirty hands soon enough 😂😊
Good to see a good father and husband!😀

Ohhh boy! Sam has hit the 100k mark! That's a decent Christmas present for sure. Congratulations and Merry Christmas!
Hey Sammy-Clause, thanks for the Christmas video 😉👍👍
Great video longer than usual, down to Earth and saw some behind the scenes stuff we wouldn't usually see.
Happy Christmas and enjoy the holidays all at Dr Mix
Great video bro, it will be complete once the blade is fitted. Seen Clinton and Keven do lots of hydraulic cylinders since I have followed C&C over the years. Safe travels over the silly season. Ken.
You always have a good attitude and it seems to work in your favor
Hearing it called a steam genny brings back memories of my dad. Everyone else calls them a steam genie now. Lol
Also… merry Christmas 🎄
Merry Christmas Sam and Family, Health and Happiness to you all.
I see you’re over 100k subscribers! Congrats!
Appreciate it!
Cool setup! I have not seen the inards of a Dresser cylinder before.
Hello thanks for your video. Marry Christmas 🎄 and Have a wonderful new year 😊
Aeroquip reusable fittings are excellent.
Used on Aircraft.
Nothing wrong if done properly as per mfg on correct hose .
Really nice work, Sam!
Great job Sam, your dozer is coming along nicely 😎😎🙏🙏🍮🍮👍👍
Another great video Sam good luck with getting a Blade for it
Love to hear you talk about getting stuck, slugging down 79. Born and raised south hills pgh. Pa guys have great channels. Keep it up scrappy and diesel creek.
Thanks for sharing and taking us along.Outstanding and awesome content as always.
She sounds super crisp, Sam...and love the turbo whistle...😁👍
Good ta' see the little man helping. 😁 Looks like his mama. Merry Christmas
Nice to see you starting the apprentice young Sam
Hey Sam, for anyone who hasn't used a steam washer / cleaner it's day and night difference from a straight pressure washer. But, everyone saw the potential downside of steam. Thank Goodness you weren't trapped underneath when the hose broke.
Great vid as usual, Sam.
Nice looking machine I bet you’ll be happy with it

thanks Sam. ... love your work.
Just made my (Cold) Saturday morning, Sam! This one'll take at least TWO cups of coffee!
Happy holidays to you and the family from NC.
Really enjoying your channel Sam! I've been watching Diesel Creek for years and decided to also come over and watch yours. So glad I did!!

Great channel! The growth recently is fun to see.
That frigging turbo sounds great
