Just found this channel and brings back memories 👍 we once had to change out a worn out spherical bearing on a radius arm. Got it in the power press and I was watching the dial heading round to 100 tons with creaks and groans , I remember saying, this is getting sketchy , when no one answered I turned around and my mates had retreated to the other side of the workshop ! Comments like.. don't worry we've got EMS on speed dial and can I have your record collection ! Spring to mind 🤣 hit the side with a 10 pound hammer and it popped then slid out beautifully. I do miss the big boys toys.
That press sure makes it look easy!
Some of the most important skills the country needs

Thanks for watching!!
Buen video amigo saludos desde ,Oaxaca.México.
Nice work Sir
Solo buena esa erramienta
Good job simple and easy
Thanks for watching!!
Great video. How in the hell did you just roll the tires forward to get the bolt holes to line back up
can you use the same tool for the steer axle bushings?
Por que tanto sal nestes caminhão? Que tipo de trabalho eles estão fazendo?
is there an alignment the bushings go back in? or did you just eyeball the camber of the bushing?
Donde pusiste el stand en qué parte del camión ?yo trabajo en California saludos
Can you post the part number of the tool that you are using to remove the bushings?
I know its not recommended to just replace 1 bushings but I only want to replace the bad one. Do you think it will hurt the alignment?
i need to change all the bushings on my truck, where is your shop located
What is the name of that tool you're using
Hola qué tal me pareció muy bueno tu video me dedico a las muelles y suspensiones en Mexico me interesaría saber donde puedo conseguir el gato hidráulico que utilizaste, Gracias espero tu respuesta
Yo e usado esa herramienta varias veces es un OTC 4245
BUENAS . YO FABRIQUE UNA CON PISTON DE DOBLE ACCION Y UNA BOMBA DE LEVANTE DE CABINA , NOTA , LA INSTALO ALREVEZ EL TOPE VA HACIA ADENTRO
what tool are you using ?
You put them in backwards
Looks like the new bushing is flapped is that ok??
So is this unit the OTC 4244
Do you need to do alignment on the truck after you change all 4
Hi where are you located I need to replace bushings on leafe springs for freightliner cascadia 2018
Can i use a big size socket to take them bushings out. If i don't have the machine. Could i messed them up that way.
Is that a push master welded on a plate with two U-bolt rods?
Where can I buy that tool from
Where can I get that press setup?? I’ve been having to take the spring assembly out of the truck completely and walk it over to a stationary press.
What’s the pressed called so I can get one
Did you make that fixture?
Awesome vid. WHERE CAN I FIND THIS TOOL!!
I enjoy your videos. I like your jig to remove and install your bushings. I was curious what type of air cylinder you use on your jig? I really want to make one. Thanks again.
Thanks for watching and commenting. Not sure what brand but you can get the whole set up online for like $1500.
@@SemiWorkin what set did u buy to do what brand do u have kit number
it looks like he's putting in the bushings backwards
Doesn’t matter which direction they go in from. Just the next guy that has to change them will be pissed that they have to do what he’s doing from underneath the truck!
I was thinking the same thing. The tool is gonna be harder to use while under the truck based on how they were placed in
Chicago-Pneimatic 734H....???
I wish I could get mine to hit as hard as yours.
When you were lowering the frame I saw you moving the drive axle to line up with the bushings, how were you doing this?
I’m assuming bottle jack under the axle to lower and lift
Como se llama el equipo para instalar ese tipo de bushines
WHAT PART NUMBER OF OTC TOOL ARE YOU USING TO DO THOSE DOUBLE WRAPPED SPRING BUSHINGS THOSE PLATES ARE WIDER THAN THE OTC 4244
Thanks for watching!! Had these plates made at a machine shop.
Хорошая работа
При наличии такого инструмента можно творить вещи ,а так же заработать много денег
При этом этот пресс стоит всего 1/5-1/6 зарплаты наёмного водилы. Смотришь такие видосы, потом цены на инструмент и это просто как с другой планеты
@@malyshevvasiliy9541 Это просто другая сторона планеты.
Mu bueno
Great video!
Do you lift it up with the forklift or with the air bags?
I use a 22 ton bottle jack in-between the spring and chasis. Lift it for the clearance, torch out the metal casing and hammer it in with the same size diameter steel tube.
Thanks for watching!! I lift it with pneumatic bottle jacks on the frame rail. That’s how we did it before we got the press.
If you take a torch to a spring the spring will be junk.
Do you use grease or anti seize on the new bushings shell when pressing it in?
The front axle leaf spring bushings on the new Cascadia (2018+) need a special adhesive/grease when installing them. It’s essentially a press grease/adhesive to keep the bushing in place after pressing them in. Look for Perma-Bond HM-160 or Loctite RC-609 adhesive. I bought the Loctite online.
Where's the shop located?
Hey Guys , I'm sorry to ask but I just bought one on Amazon, OTC 4245, and I'm having problems because the width between the bolt is 5 inches and don't fit so easy like your when I have to leaf like this video, can you tell me the width in your between the bolts please.
What condition existed that lead you to replace the bushings?
Thanks for watching!! The rubber inside the bushings were worn causing the alignment to be out and creating tire wear.
Did this left and right on Peterbilts 579's gasoline haulers drove them like they were stolen trucks.
How did you get your press to go around the “eye “ of the ear spring ?? We have the otc one I think 4255?? It fits over the eye of a leaf spring on the 2017 and older ones but the second we try the new cascadias it won’t slip over the front of the spring. Is it a different press??
Why not use a large impact socket?
@@nawzy202 if the press doesn’t clear width wise how will the socket help
@@user-rr4hr7bz7n I miss read ur comment I thought u said adapter wasn't wide enough to go over the bushing 😆
@@nawzy202 nah that’s fine the problem we’re having is the two rods on the outside don’t clear the eye of the leaf spring
We had a machine shop make us a plate with a 1/2” on both sides to make it wider
You fitted the bolts . Arround the other way. ..
what do you use as an adapter .. is my question
Thanks for watching!! The adapters came with the press.
//amzn.to/3plCzRF
If you don’t use the adapter you will push the inner section of bushing out of the outer sleeve and your new bushing will be in two pieces. Ask me how I know.
The shorter adapter is for installing the bushing from the opposite side. Longer adapter for pushing them out. We sometimes remove driveshaft to clear the ram on the tool, but sometimes can start them from the inside enough with a hammer to clear the driveshaft. I work at at a Freightliner dealership and do a lot of those bushings and they would say you installed them backwards. I’m gunna look in the tech lit on Monday, maybe We’ve ust been doing it the hard way
What’s the name of the tool your using ?
Thanks for watching!!OTC Press: amzn.to/3plCzRF
You should frame that CP air gun when it reaches retirement.. With a brass plate that reads "They asked if I wanted some penetrating oil, and I told them.. Just show me the job man"
Thanks for watching!! It takes a beating but has held up great.
Esta poniendo el buje mal
La rondana grande va por el lado de adentro
Estoy de acuerdo, lo pone al revés, es un excelente equipo pues evitas bajar el muelle completo para remplazar el buje, pero lo pone al revés, solo hay que ver cómo está puesto el original antes de sacarlo.
How much would u charge to replace all 4 bushing? 🤔
Thanks for watching!! Each job is different hard to say how much.
@@SemiWorkin I'm being quoted $400/bushing ...I think someone saw me for a sucker ....lol ... Or may be a great deal ... 🤔
@@vroor32 If that’s parts and labor it doesn’t sound too bad.
@@SemiWorkin oh? Cool. Yes, that's parts & labor, then add 2 rear axle alignment to that. I feel so much better. Thx.
@@SemiWorkin in Romania for that job you would pay around 700 euros for them all plus 200 the alignment. But the money value is completely different here over the states.
They backwards
Thanks for watching!! They can go in either way notice the wear shims that were installed so they can’t rub.
Yes I noticed that too got installed backwards. Gonna rubbed thru the hanger. But great video man 👨. Good bushing tool.
когда инструмент есть то интересно работать а не как у нас пока приготовишь всё брусьев натоскаешь чтоб под машину класть чтоб она не упала на тебя потом трубы по десять метров 10 человек в помощь а гайки прикипевшие пока все открутишь и думаешь да нахер это надо первый и последний раз этим занимаюсь и потом опять всё снова недавно у нас в городе видел как мужики балансир на камазе меняли под открытым небом неделю делали и как то они без энтузиазма работали с кислыми минами наверно болты плохо откручивались
American scrap, drum brakes, springs. Sorry, maybe it's a vintage truck?
