I had the opportunity to talk to the engineers at Clark forklifts when i was a service tech there, i came in and said “I want names, who designed this and who designed that, I want to know what name to yell out when I have to work on this stuff” it was great, they all were in shock and didn’t know what to say.
I worked in the parts department for a large Clark lift truck dealer for a time. I remember the mechanics coming to the parts window muttering about how hard this or that part was to replace. "Always the most replaced parts are the ones hidden behind EVERYTHING!" LOL!
@@larrybolhuis1049Years ago I meet a very famous Ford car designer/engineer and I asked him why so many often replaced parts were such a pain in the @** to replace. He said that the design team comes up with a car design (interior and exterior form) and they hand that off to the design engineers who then spec out options, engines, transmissions etc as well as determining what parts currently being produced can be used or retrofitted easily. This is then past off to a group referred to as the stuffers whose job is to make it all fit with zero concerns on ease of repair, replacement, or diagnosis of a trouble
EXACTLY RIGHT !!! If THEY had to work on it, they WOULDN'T have designed it that way !!! "Ease of Assembly" is NO excuse for a mechanical nightmare !!!
Officer Hoover probably needs to be posted to DP and company permanently to keep a tight eye on those trouble makers. Especially when it's DP and Aaron. 🤣
I've always found penetrating oil is my friend when bleeding brakes. Although brake lines are divided into front and rear they are an integral unit. If part of one brake line gosend is repaired, it's Integrity is only as good as the rest of the other lines whose structural integrity may also be compromised... In our younger years we did a ground-up restoration on a 59 El Camino my brother owned. We replaced all the master cylinders but he refused to address the brake lines. It took many weeks for this restoration even using two front end loaders to lift the front and rear body off the frame. It only took seconds to lose the brakes going down a hill and having the wherewithal to choose between a tree and a telephone pole to avoid going into the perpendicular freeway coming up...
I was born in 1954 I believe that Mr. Dirt Perfect was an auto mechanic before he got involved in the projects he does now. Turning wrenches get old fast. My brother was an auto mechanic and I flew jumbo jets...worldwide..as well as around the world. Retired in Florida.
I am glad to see officer Hoover there to make sure it passed inspection. Now you just got to put him to work, pushing brush and putting in drain tile. Maybe hauling dirt in Bubba Dump.
Nice job! From what I've seen most people don't bother fixing the brakes on a loader. Just use the engine to slow down and the forks to stop. Because that's safe and hills don't exist 🤣
That would have been a perfect opportunity to swap out the rigid steel lines for copper, save the same headache on the other three in the future 😉. And Aaron, stick a pair of safety specs on looking up under there, saves an eye/eyes full of dirt/brake fluid (ask me how I know! 😒)
It's amazing on break lines how working on the left front lines how the right rear lines start leaking next.....lol. knowing what a pain they are you really got lucky it wasn't worse. Keep up the good work Guy's. I love the content you put out is informational and entertaining. P.S. Good move draining the Air tank, that's a good sign it was just water bleeding off. 🙂👍
You know sometimes your mornings just doesn't seem to be headed in the right direction, then DP and MBTS comes along and turns it around for you, the few minutes of straitening the bumper did just that, that portion of this video is worth of it's own standing on the Tube :)) Thanks DP!
Should have power washed the loader before beginning the repairs. Then there's less chance of contaminating the new brake lines, and you don't have to work in such a dirty / greasy environment (in your eyes, lungs, on your hands making it hard to grip, in your tools, etc.)
Hi Mike and Arron. love your u tube , following all your clips ,keep up the humor guys love it.Mike we all like the way you interact with all your workers ,we need guys like you here in down under to show the the contractors here how to look after their workers, Will
You guys need to pressure wash the underneath of all the work vehicles. It would make maintence a whole lot easier as well as the longevety of the equipment.
@@DirtPerfect I bet you wrote such a rude comment because you were having a war with your wife!!! But you lost the war/argument!🤬😡😈💔💥💦😨💨. No need to be angry. You aahooh
you should put a pull cord release valve on the wet tank. then you can just give it a quick drain every time you approach the loader. or an automatic one linked to your starter motor would do.
Don't worry Chris, they will figure that out eventually. Keep in mind, those good ole boys only service the loader every 10 years or so. They are always busy.
Thank goodness for 'Biotch Tests' and Mini-DP's pretending it's raining. I'm glad you start every day off with vivid hallucinations and got an on-site armed guard now to referee your verbal disputes before they get out of hand. You 2 should be well monitored at all times.
Gunners getting close to the age where he borrows your tools and you find them with the lawnmower.. haha. I raised 2 boys. I finally put a sign out log up. It helped a lot.
Even though they're a little more expensive I switched over the copper nickel lines when I do brakes if the parts store has available size. Super easy to bend and flare.
Thank goodness someone fixes breaks on heavy equipment. I worked for so many that didn't in the past that if you yelled STOP I immediately drop the bucket.😁
Aaron come on you know your the mastermind behind everything thanks to you everything gets done and done dp is good at what he does but theres no way he runs the show he spent to much time in smoke room but thanks for great content
love the way you guys give each other a hard time just like my twin and I. Hi Officer Hoover and the the rest of the family. glad it was a easy fix for yah.
Good job boys. I ran a 926 Cat loader for a utility contractor for 20 years. She had close to 25000 hrs on her and was a great machine. Just the right size to work on live roads. Good power for its size Mush better bucket response than new machines with electric controls. The only issue we were having later in life was the tranny. She did the job for sure.
I tell you DP, it always amazes me just how fast you guy's work in these videos! Sometimes I can't even see how fast you are moving!! Great video and thank you for bringing us along on your adventures!!! 😂😊 PS.....we'll see if this generates some comments for you!!!!
DP not only that,but i can see the air inside the tires thru the checking on the inside of the tires there!😳😁🤣🤣🤣 NEVER A DULL MOMENT WITH YOU TWO!!! Well done boy's 👏👏👏👏
Minor details here But if you two cover the threads with tape , and spray those lines with a either on part or two part epoxy paint. You will never revisit..a line leaking again.. Or rusted mess leading to a leak. Even a can of bed liner spray works.
This is the best Mike and Aaron video yet. It had me laughing so hard the whole 45 minutes.

Yes Clark is a good lift but hard to work on, After 7 years I switched to Yale and was surprised at how much easier they were to work on
Always good to see Officer Hoover, keeping you guys in check! 😊
Officer Hoover probably needs to be posted to DP and company permanently to keep a tight eye on those trouble makers. Especially when it's DP and Aaron. 🤣
Absolutely makes more being officer then he would be making
Is it only my opinion
I am supprized that MBTS didn't paint the new brake lines yellow, must be out of paint.
Lol
Naaaaa, I think Electric Ladyland pink is the new color to pinstripe the fleet!!!!
The difference in doing and watching, my arms don't ache, no dirt in my eyes & my hands are clean. Thanks for doing a great break repair for me.
Gotta preserve that old iron DP! If you guys get some more down time you should give the old loader a new paint job!🤷♂️
Repairs are always needed when you don't expect them great video thanks Mike and Aron

MBTS, you know you better have faith in Jesus, because faith in anything or anyone else falls short. Love you brother, keep up the good work.
Thanks for taking us to work with you! Lots of good times!
Hey Mike, ask Officer Hoover to keep you some saw dust for your liquid spills.
I am glad to see officer Hoover there to make sure it passed inspection. Now you just got to put him to work, pushing brush and putting in drain tile. Maybe hauling dirt in Bubba Dump.
Nice job! From what I've seen most people don't bother fixing the brakes on a loader. Just use the engine to slow down and the forks to stop. Because that's safe and hills don't exist 🤣
I would call the ole loader the “loader behind the scenes” or “LBTS”, never seen and never fails. Thanks for the tag along sir.
Thumbs-Up for shop work! 👍 Watching you push dirt around is like watching pain dry.
That would have been a perfect opportunity to swap out the rigid steel lines for copper, save the same headache on the other three in the future 😉. And Aaron, stick a pair of safety specs on looking up under there, saves an eye/eyes full of dirt/brake fluid (ask me how I know! 😒)
I served with USAF 25 years and the last jets I worked on where 1958-1963.
Dirty equipment needs cleaning...... DP comment generator!!!!!! Also, oil soaked dirt is a great rust preventative..... Luv ya's from Kentucky!!!!
You two in the shop working together are a hoot to watch! Nice work Mike 👍🏻
Aaron asked nicely again, here's his comment, loader needs Dirt Perfect decals.....
Nice fix guys!
It's amazing on break lines how working on the left front lines how the right rear lines start leaking next.....lol. knowing what a pain they are you really got lucky it wasn't worse. Keep up the good work Guy's. I love the content you put out is informational and entertaining.
P.S. Good move draining the Air tank, that's a good sign it was just water bleeding off. 🙂👍
Looked like an auxillary water tank. 😂
Good job guys fixing the brakes on the loader
I don’t miss one video. Keep up the good work.
Glad to see you didn’t pay high$$$ for OEM CAT brake lines. They probably would not had both of them in stock.
Morning guys!! Arron ,,Rocks! Lots of fun! Lets get errr done!!;-)!! Cheers!
Yes, you can buy crow's foot flare sockets and spanners and they're really handy to have.
Cool I used to make Pipe Benders and threaders like that one here in Painesville Ohio 👍
Thought just occurred how did you and Aaron meet up you guys work so well together!
Check my other channel full of podcasts about just that
You know sometimes your mornings just doesn't seem to be headed in the right direction, then DP and MBTS comes along and turns it around for you, the few minutes of straitening the bumper did just that, that portion of this video is worth of it's own standing on the Tube :)) Thanks DP!
Lol
I think you two should wash some of the dirt off so there's less chance of rust forming then no rusty lines

No
@@JohnShalamskasnah you just have to work with water dripping in your eyes and all over you which is 100times more annoying than some dirt and grease
Again, thousands of dollars and time saved by tenacity and talent!!!
Awesome! Teamwork! Another great video! Thanks for sharing! 👌👍
Nice job another productive day in the shop
Could put a 45 degree bend in the spanner to get it to fit in to tighten the nut
I don't see a DP sticker on the loader and she's your favorite old girl ?? What about blinker fluid level ?? 😃👍👍👍
Good morning sunshine! It tickled me when you hid the bolts! Lol! Great video! Much love from Henderson Ga
Great video and once again good to see Officer Hoover in the house! Thanks; Mike & Aaron! Lee
Hi Mike and Arron. love your u tube , following all your clips ,keep up the humor guys love it.Mike we all like the way you interact with all your workers ,we need guys like you here in down under to show the the contractors here how to look after their workers, Will

You guys need to pressure wash the underneath of all the work vehicles. It would make maintence a whole lot easier as well as the longevety of the equipment.
I'm sure he would let you do it.
They never stay clean and when your working on it it’s nicer having dry dirt fall on you then wet mudd
Fuck that have covered this several times check out the videos why that’s a complete wast of time and money thanks
@@DirtPerfect I bet you wrote such a rude comment because you were having a war with your wife!!! But you lost the war/argument!🤬😡😈💔💥💦😨💨. No need to be angry. You aahooh
Somehow the two of two made the brakes work. 😂 good job

Like the color of the shirt of Hoover. It is the same as the camperbus😀
Safety is a good thing!
I figure Arron gotta come up with the ideas,
Before anything gets done..gees
Well thems the brakes guys. Nice bit of wrench'n and banter bro, good to see Mr woodwork drop by too. Safe travels. Ken
You two guys are a hoot to watch!
When the brakes break, it could involve a crushed up pipe or crate 😅
I came here to find the one who knows the difference between brakes and breaks.
Or crushed up people.
It a blast watching you and Aaron in the shop. Thanks for sharing another great video.
Great work/ yea right.another day in the neighborhood.good video.kudos 👍👍👍😎😎😎
Don't forget to remove cordless battery and unplug charger when full. Heard in some cases causes fire.
On the old 920's from the 70's i changed lots of those break lines
Gunners getting close to the age where he borrows your tools and you find them with the lawnmower.. haha. I raised 2 boys. I finally put a sign out log up. It helped a lot.
This is pure class guys. Thank you for sharing 😁
That bad boy holds a lot of brake fluid great watch 👍👋🇨🇦
Don't ya just hate discovering after you flared the end, you forgot to put the flare nut on?
...and a big hi 🙋♂ to Officer H.
letdig18 needs a man behind the scene, lol. you two make a great team. hope y’all have a great long friendship. Hallelu Yahuah
Even though they're a little more expensive I switched over the copper nickel lines when I do brakes if the parts store has available size. Super easy to bend and flare.
Aren't they also more corrosion resistant?
Yes they are from what I understand, especially when they're buried under those guards it would be better I think.
Better than Laurel & Hardy you guys. Funny & educational. Thanks for posting. 🇬🇧😂😂👍👍
Rather than you than me guys wat a job to do you need extra joints in your arms well done tough job and a 👍👍👍👍 great job
Thanks for sharing your thoughts, ideas and videos. Great to see the loader getting some deserved love. Wishing you and your family the best.
Thank goodness someone fixes breaks on heavy equipment. I worked for so many that didn't in the past that if you yelled STOP I immediately drop the bucket.😁

Well Arron you'll be stopping on a dime now, actually found this video very interesting thanks guys..UK out
MBTS thank god your here
Well since they haven’t worked in a long time you should still have good linings on them. Great video guys.
Have a great day all!!😀😀😀
Holy crap, DP....guess its been a while since that air tank was drained...lotta water in there..😱
Great video as always, buddy...😊👍
Mike you cleaned your shop I'm impressed
Normal sorry
@@DirtPerfect no need to be sorry Mike it looks good .your busy snd not always time to clean never be sorry best wishes
Aim it for something soft!
Great job looking great you two make a great team keep up the great work
Back end is a beam axle. You could just lift the machine and tilt it down or jack the gap to open it up..
Think the old loader needs a power washing!!!
love the way you guys give each other a hard time just like my twin and I. Hi Officer Hoover and the the rest of the family. glad it was a easy fix for yah.

Mike, you need to get some DirtPerfect stickers on the loader!
hi DP and Aaron good evening from down under. that was one funny Video guys made my night thanks for another top video
And here I thought @WatchWesWork was the master of custom bending brake lines.
You two make a great internet video team I'm not sure😊😊😊 I would let officer Hoover look under my equipment lol😅😅😅lmao
Thanks
Awesome job Guys! Great video. Keep um coming!
Minor details here
But if you two cover the threads with tape , and spray those lines with a either on part or two part epoxy paint.

spoken like a true ignoramus
@@manifold1476 truth hurts
Got to agree with Aaron on this one cause Mike you can get a little ruff sometimes 😎🇺🇸👍NY
Ehh, you don`t need brakes, it only slows you down. Great video by the way!
Heloise Hint, run split piece of tubing on the brake line under the cover, it keeps it from developing those holes
my mates telehandler has no brakes and you get used to it. then you drive a new handler that has brakes and its really fun!
Dirt Perfect, what’s the details of the air tool holder on the back of the metal work bench. How was that made? Interested in making one for myself.
Cheep off Amazon
We love it
In the factory the brake lines are probably subbed on the axle before being installed on machine
As an apprentice my old boss told me what do you want breaks for they only hold you back
Good job guys
You two guys have way to much fun.
Another great video thank you 👍👍👍👍
good job and lots of laughs
