      That nut for your trans output yoke WILL come loose. The meatball before you welded it instead of spending the little money for a new one. They are just a nylock style nut. It was welded because the nylon succumbed to the heat from the transmission and lost its grip. You can locktite it if you want but the best answer is new nut, blue locktite. Obviously I’m not implying this is a hardware store nylock item, you’ll have to source it based on your trans model, looks like an Eaton trans
      And for seal installation which you probably already know, you can put oil on them prior to install, but I like to you Vaseline(petroleum jelly), nice coating so they don’t run dry for the first bit. Vaseline won’t hurt any oils.
      I’ve been there. Thanks for all the great videos!

      If it were mine, I would make an inspection cover for that big hole on the bottom of the bellhousing. A lot dust, and road grime gets up in there, causing premature wear on the pressure plate, bearing, and everything else that moves.
      Probably make a smaller hole for fluids to drain if seals were ever to fail, you can see drips from it.
      Basically a tiny oil pan to cover that hole, but with a small hole instead of a drainplug.

    To help align the bell housing with the engine, find 2 or 3 bolts that have an inch longer thread. Cut the bolt head off, then saw a slot in the end of the screw. Thread the bolts into the engine block, slip the bell housing on using the bolts as guides. Once the transmission is aligned and a few bell housing bolts are in, use a screwdriver to remove the installed guide bolts. Sure make the job a lot easier!

    Hi .. I’m in SW England and I stumbled upon your channel some time back through following similar guys fixing and fettling 😉 What I love about your delivery is the honesty .. stuff goes wrong, wrong parts arrive, things break, you deliberate with should I shouldn’t I … it’s all very real. On some channels there’s cuts where the mistakes and cock ups are glossed over, but you learn nothing😬
    I watch you and laugh and sometimes grind my teeth as you would be .. for instance the truck clutch … I can imagine the hours of research and frustration only to end up back at the beginning where a chap was more helpful 🙄😉
    Keep it up .. I love your videos … real down to earth fettling at its best 👍😊👏👏👏
    (PS I’m 70 and have been fettling a long time .. a pen pusher all my life but a fettler in the evenings - I build scale flying model aircraft in balsa .. but when younger I tore apart and rebuilt car engines to save money … many many issues so similar to what you encounter .. remembering it like it was yesterday (smiling as I type😊)

    Always awesome when a plan comes together! I used to be the trans tech at a GM dealership and I pulled and replaced hundreds if not thousands of transmissions. Always looking for things to make the job easier, I made me some alignment pins from 3/8 bolts that were 3 or so inches long. Cut the head off of the bolt and chamfered it so the trans would slide over them easy. I would screw two of these bolts into the two holes on the back of the engine, slide the trans over the pins and the trans would be perfectly aligned every time and slide onto the engine like magic. It worked with automatic or standard transmissions... Hope I am explaining this well enough and that it may help someone next time they have a trans job to do...

    A lot of heavy industrial engines utilize a wear sleeve right from the get go. Caterpillar’s removal tool consists of a thin ring that fits into the opening of the block and a small single edged tool with a rounded edge opposite of the cutting edge. You stick the tool between the thin spacer ring and the wear sleeve and the rock it back and forth around the circumference of the wear sleeve essentially leaving small chisel marks in the wear sleeve. This expands the wear sleeve to the point that it just slides off by hand. In a pinch I’ve used a hack saw blade to cut most of the way through and a flat blades screwdriver to tear it apart the rest of the way.

Some welding and lathe work later it was back together, and that feeling of pure joy when the transmission suddenly pops in. Really wish you all the best.

  • @2shay550
    @2shay550 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Great video and explanations as usual. Here's a couple tips for wear sleeve removal if you don't have the removal tool. First, if you have the room you can strike the outside of the sleeve with a chisel, doesn't have to cut through the sleeve you're just looking to deform it enough to loosen it, works great for wheel seal sleeves.
    Usually with a rear main you don't have room to strike the outside square with a chisel. I used to start by carefully chiseling the edge and I had a ground down muffler splitter to split the sleeve. If I put a little gouge in the crank I made sure to hit with some emery cloth and always put silicone around the crank before installing the new sleeve. Even though it's a tight fit, oil could migrate between the sleeve and the crank.
    Also, to help stab the transmission put it in gear and push from the rear with your foot/feet. You can turn the output yoke with your foot when needed. Yours went in much easier than a dual plate clutch with a much larger twin countershaft transmission

    Once again, late to your party, but here's a hint for installing transmissions: Get 4 long bolts the same size as the bell housing bolts. Cut the heads off and cut a screwdriver slot in their place. Install the long bolts where you can get them back out with a straight screwdriver. Slide the transmission into place along the studs you made. Install and tighten the regular bolts in all the open holes, remove the studs and install the remaining bolts and done.

    I just want to tell you that, this is my favorite channel to watch, it's satisfying seeing you build something from nothing the garage addition, or fixing something that's broke, clutch. Great channel. Keep it up, I hope it's going well for you.

    Two things. This is a nice truck to me and it has given your channel some content for us to watch and learn from. Second, I love that your new overhang and concrete floor have gotten baptized in grease, dirt, and locktite.

    For a second there i thought you were blurring your speedometer like those car youtubers … great job. I enjoy following along. I’m going above and beyond on a 50 year old forklift myself.

    Splendid work. Trucks are so much bigger, you just take the size for granted until the spanners come out, then the scale hits you, hopefully only figuratively!

    Wow I'm actually impressed with the way you explain things, I've never saw it with anyone else. Thanks to you I finally understood how a clutch works in action. I bealive that your videos could be used as a instructional video on school classes. Very very very nice work! Waiting for the next one :)

    I really enjoy living vicariously through your videos. Great stuff.
    At the same time, the OCD part of my brain really needed you to power wash everything, just because. 😂

    That 2nd new clutch actually looks new.
    I drove big trucks for 44 years, I did a lot of work as well, with a 15.5 clutch a clutch jack was a very big help, and a heavy-duty transmission jack was a great help too. I realize very expensive tools for a DIY, but you could rent them for a day. The good thing about a transmission jack is you can raise or lower either end of the transmission and have it slide right in.
    Sir you did a great job , I'm just glad I don't have to work on trucks any more, that stuff is heavy.

    Watching you assemble that universal joint reminded me of doing a car one with press in cup and needle roller bearings held in with a circlip .. I pressed it in but could NOT get the circlip to engage .. hours of struggling .. then an old guy told me ‘you have one needle at the bottom of the cup, stopping it being pressed home’ …
    He was absolutely right .. disassemble it and sure enough one needle had fallen out of the race and was at the bottom 🤬
    Put it back with more grease and it went together beautifully in 5 minutes 🙄😉
    You live and learn … every day a school day 😊👍

    The hardest part of repairing old equipment isn't just finding the parts, it is knowing when to stop fixing things; the old "if it isn't broke don't fix it" rule. I have ended up down that rabbit hole of "well I have it apart and it would easy to replace that" which can blow your budget up and lead to "unrepairable" circumstances once you take something apart that wont' go back together without new parts that are unavailable. My advice: Do the repair and leave well enough alone.

  • @christophersheppard1747

    Thanks for taking the time to explain how the clutch mechanism works, I find it truly fascinating and for me it adds a whole other dimension to the repair. I don't know how you know all this stuff but I'm glad you do. Brilliant channel!

    I think at 53:20 you have installed the PTO shaft clocked 90 to what it should be, looking at the disassembly I think it was also originally correct. My understanding is that you want both yokes to be aligned on the middle shaft otherwise you'll get pulsating as the power is transferred across.

    i remember taking out engines with my dad repairing flywheels and what not
    i hated the dry hands and chipped fingernails but i now am very grateful for learning and spending time with the old man
    your channel is pretty nostalgic for me
