I have been known to drill thru metal shielded bearings to pump some grease in a bearing when it was on its way out to get it thru until I could change the bearing. Farmer Fixes. Yep, it all depends on the part and how fast you need it. Sometimes it's local, but it seems to be harder and harder in smaller towns to get industrial/agricultural parts without having to go and get bent over at the dealer. Back when my dad had a tractor shop, we could get lots of tractor parts from NAPA. Now days, no go. Bring a hydraulic fitting in and they're shaking their head at you before you even set it on the bench. Good repair video, Frank! Thanks for the video!
I just had to change a water pump on my payloader; its has a deere 6059 engine; and I noticed the fan was wobbling; bearing was out but it didnt start leaking yet; deere gets $828.00 for a new pump; the price sucked but at least I caught it before it came completely apart and sent the fan through the radiator; you do a good job on your preventative maintenance another good video; thanks for sharing
Good you caught it. Mine went all at once. Never dropped a drop. Just a moment of “what’s that squeal” and before I could swing the seat around and shut down it went. Took the fan, shroud and radiator with. Bad day for sure. Great video!
Sounds like we grew up around the same kinda people ! 😊 Where I grew up it was a long ways to the parts store and it took a lot of time out of the day to go get parts so we done a lot of preventive maintenance ! Yeah, I have added grease to those " sealed " bearings more than a few times, even had a special tool to do it ! That water pump looks a lot like one for a Case 580 k, I've replaced a few. Thanks for sharing and take care. 👍
I miss the day of the serviceable wheel bearing. If you cleaned and packed every brake job they would last the life of the vehicle! If you bought a used truck and had to replace them it was less than 20$ for the seal, bearings and a new can of grease.
Good job, and again, very informative even if it wasn't as much fun as going to the auction! A little prevention is very wise with those semi-sealed bearings and will definitely help them last. Never heard of the sheet metal screw idea but I think it's brilliant. Just another example of good ol' Yankee ingenuity!
I Had To Laugh Out Loud When You Said " I Shudda Drained All The Water On The Floor ". Of Course At This Point Your Probably Thinking That I'm Easily Amused , And You Would Be Right !!! Thumbs Up
I was laughing when you said you take seals off the bearings and add grease.... christ Frank you`re just like me!! Every chance I get I`m doing that... even on my snowmobiles... they last a hell of a lot longer!! Some of the older equipment couldn`t be greased in spots that were a nightmare to get to... so before putting it back together if possible we drilled,taped and put a fitting in so it would last. I was sure that Napa could fix you up on trailer brake parts.. they`re usually pretty good with that. Excellent vid Frank take it easy!!
Yeah after you commented on the brakes I had to check. Funny thing is I have asked them before and they said they didn’t have them. When I took the part number they said no problem. That will be a lot easier for sure. Poor people poor ways! Just makes sense to grease the bearings to me. I put a grease zerk on the KW water pump and it has lasted for years. Used to go through one every 2-3 years.
I agree with you guys. I have a commercial account at my local Oreilly. They price match and then throw my discount on top! They won't price match online price but they have let me haggle them down some to keep the sale. I like to spend as much of my wages as I can in the county I live in.
Good job Frank !!!!! You sure do it wright and well by the book It is nice to watch people working well with class No green person thinking they know all here Good Serge ( from Mtl )
Good job. That reminds me I gotta fix our old lb75 all the years of loading salt with it have taken it's toll tons of electrical issues from all the salt getting inside all connections.
@@Digginok it sure is we have two f750 dumps that are 2013s we use Salter's in them in winter and man if you were to look at them you would think they are 20 year old by the condition from the rust. They both have already needed to be repainted.
don't remember where I got it but have a needle with a grease fitting that works great to slip pasr rubber seals and give a little shot. can keep a rumbling bearing going until you can get a replacement
Very easy on the hoe, a bit harder in a truck. NAPA had two different ones, one had metal impeller with fewer blades, this one had plastic impeller with more blades. Hopefully it will work.
@@Digginok didn't know they offered it both ways. I know when i was a mechanic we had a BMW with plastic impeller on their water pumps and it came apart. not sure if all the pieces came out of it or were jammed up in the engine someone.
I never had the dexterity to work on stuff. A 30 min job took me 4 hours. Now I don't have the patience to force my shaking hands to put bolts in holes!
@6:59 what are those flexible ducts visible over and behind the frame rail.. are those torn fresh air for the cab ducts? just curious. ps.. when pulling heater hoses.. punch a small hole in the end of the old hose and in the new hose.. thread a zip tie so the locking head is inside the hose but have a short chunk of fuel hose inside and the zip tie thru that.... this allows you to easily pull the new hose in by pulling the old hose out as long as there are no clamps holding it in place you can see how its done in this image.. i.imgur.com/gTHJRWF.jpg its only slightly harder and yes i had to take the wheel off along with the suspension and fuel tank out to do the job properly. i.imgur.com/5sY6gjU.jpg its just a vehicle from an italian farm tractor manufacturer. not mine.. i just fix it. i decided to have some pie after i got the water pump on.. i.imgur.com/XWkpdAx.jpg and to quench the replies.. what the heck that is.. just just a farm tractors side line.. i.imgur.com/praCoxu.jpg and yes.. when its rolling down the street.. people are plowed over by just its looks and sound..
Our guys at Epps the local Napa if your not sure on the right part or custom making something they will send you out with a bunch of stuff and tell you just bring what you don't use back. And bring the box back to what you used and just pay for that. Makes things nice
That’s always a good deal!!! Parts men that know why they exist are always the best asset to an excavation business. Gotta love the ones who care about getting you back up and running !!!
@@Digginok -- The parts stores in my area of central New York seem to have replaced all of the parts guys with 20-somethings who have never seen a tractor or a TLB, it is frustrating there is no one there anymore who has actually worked on anything. Me sounding like my father again: when I was a boy there were parts guys who were once mechanics and they knew the differences between the parts on hand and the stuff they could order, all of that seems to be gone in my area. I'm frustrated being asked to pay three times the price so I can buy something local, especially when they're usually clueless.
David I am in upstate ny and if you deal with the independent Napa store you get much better service than franchise store price is the same but the smaller guys will put on some good sales certain times of the year
Once you know there's something just waiting to let go like your heater hoses you never feel really comfortable until you fix it. Buying local from real people can get you things and help you won't find online--same with big box stores and W-mart.
@@Digginok It had a trenching bucket that was all busted up and the every section of the boom had at least one crack. The swing cylinders were both huffing out oil. Well the list goes on and on! It was sad to me that it was in such poor repair. I almost put my phone number with it. My Dad has wanted a backhoe for a long time.
It should be against the law to make bearings without a grease fitting. I always ask if i can get bearings or tierods with greae fittings begor i buy them
What get's me is that somewhere out there is a 14 ft aluminum Jon boat with a Cat seat on it ..........wow that would make him a real Catfisherman with an expensive ego ,when really all this person needs is a old crank phone
Well now that is a very good point!!! That is definitely something to ponder, who is this cat fisherman! Would it be better to fish with a Cat backhoe seat for bass? So many questions, so few Cats with boat seats!
Hi the old girls getting tired all at once and telling you about it by the looks of it. I went online Volvo shopping for you here in Manitoba the other day, older ones start at mid 30's and go up to high 70's Canadian for the newer ones. I'm not feeling that generous with your money to buy you one L.O.L. I find the guys that design tractor radiators will put a nice drain tap in them. The dick that designs the front casting don't usually talk to the radiator guy, So he puts junk in the way so you either can't get at the tap at all . Or the coolant comes out and hits something as you cant get an extension hose on to stop it spraying everywhere but in a pail if you can open the tap ! Almost everybody hates a Belarus tractor, but to be fair the Russians designed one of the best radiator drain taps and locations for it I've ever used on a tractor. I had to flush a Massey in - 20 oc the other day with the fleet guard alkali restorer using plain water as well, before adding coolant again. That makes a mess like a skating rink quick, I was thinking what can I do so this stuff don't go on the floor like that. I was thinking of a used big plastic cattle mineral lick pail as they are a fair diameter , but one wasn't available on his farm. The guy had one of those plastic calf rescue sleds instead thats about 2 1/2 ft wide 12" tall and 4 foot long. we put that under were i was taking the bottom hose off and it worked perfect to catch the main flow and drips , with careful positioning. The only slight drawback was getting the contaminated stuff poured in the pail after "for safe disposal" , as the thing was a bit awkward to lift without another person helping. Thanks for the video, take care.

I absolutely love the fact that you look over and attempt to catch things like that before it got wayyyy worse Frank!! Awesome video and helpful!
I should probably be more meticulous, but down time on a job is my biggest fear. Thanks Albert!!!

Dang that's a high priced pump!!! I could probably do better. Thanks for watching!!!
Great video Frank. Jpaydirt would be proud with you painting the water pump. 😉🇺🇸
That’s what I was thinking!!!
Good you caught it. Mine went all at once. Never dropped a drop. Just a moment of “what’s that squeal” and before I could swing the seat around and shut down it went. Took the fan, shroud and radiator with. Bad day for sure. Great video!
Dang it!!! I lost a fan and radiator to a fence post once ! That’s an expensive deal for sure!

Thanks Frank, I'm putting a water pump on my 580K tomorrow. Same exact pump. Perfect timing!
Sound be a breeze! Good luck!

What a great intro. You wouldn't see better editing from a video professional.
Thanks!
Once again I love your show I wish I was younger and was doing what you're doing I did it before you and I miss it even the shop time LOL
I agree on supporting your local stores, i try to do the same,

Thank you sir!!!
Nice work I agree with you would much rather work on it in the shop on your schedule then on the job in a panic
Thanks!
Good job. That reminds me I gotta fix our old lb75 all the years of loading salt with it have taken it's toll tons of electrical issues from all the salt getting inside all connections.
Salt is terrible for equipment! good luck.

My dad has a needle fitting too. Works great for sealed bearings.
Looked a pleasure to do Frank shame there all not like that
Wasn't bad at all!
lol almost 5k ! your getting there
Nice music intro
Thanks!
yup looks like the one on my pickup. definitely an easy pump to change once you have access to it
Very easy on the hoe, a bit harder in a truck. NAPA had two different ones, one had metal impeller with fewer blades, this one had plastic impeller with more blades. Hopefully it will work.
@@Digginok didn't know they offered it both ways. I know when i was a mechanic we had a BMW with plastic impeller on their water pumps and it came apart. not sure if all the pieces came out of it or were jammed up in the engine someone.
This one matches the casting number as a cross reference, the metal impeller one did not. So I think this one will work better. We will see!
@@Digginok Wonder what the different applications would be for? You've got me curious now.
I’m thinking the 4 cylinder is a bit different, but I could be wrong. Seems a 4 would need less flow than a 6.
there called dust collier and you can over pack bearing reducing there service life
I never had the dexterity to work on stuff. A 30 min job took me 4 hours. Now I don't have the patience to force my shaking hands to put bolts in holes!
I have always enjoyed fixing things, and thankful that I can.
@@Digginok I could always take it apart but put it back together-not so much...😁
#MBGA
Yeah! I’m trying!!!
Mrs. Elite Earthworks Hi
Looks like the same water pump off a 6bt cummins in dodge pickups. And agree it probably is the easiest water pump to change.
It’s really similar for sure. We had 2 different ones at the NAPA store, this one seemed exactly right.

Ducts for cab vents, tape and rope worked fine for me. Thanks for the tips!
Very nice car!!! Thanks for sharing that!
always help your local guy. I do internet shop to. our local guy is alsome to work with
Seems they get over looked too much, I'd be in a world of hurt without a good local dealer or store!

Yes he does!
Nice....I’ve change water pumps in cars that looked harder than this.
Yeah lot's harder!
Hey you know they sell new ones , you think about it that boat seat backhoe is lookin pretty good ain't it ?
The cat with the boat seat is on I-35 equipment sales!!! Lol
And no I don’t need a backhoe with a boat seat thank you!!!
I thought I was watching jpaydirt when you painted it to match
Yeah I’m trying to keep up with the professor!!!
Like seem Iveco engine
Once you know there's something just waiting to let go like your heater hoses you never feel really comfortable until you fix it. Buying local from real people can get you things and help you won't find online--same with big box stores and W-mart.
Just gotta know your equipment, take care of the important people too!
Hi how are you sir
This is Cummins engine or Iveco engine(Italian engine)
Iveco I think. Looks like a Cummins though.
2nd pump?
Water pump #2. They seem to last around 4500 hours.
@@Digginok I stopped and looked at a beat up B95 today just for fun. It was not for sale!

You must have crossed a big bridge as now you have adds on your channel.
Yeah a while back!
It is a shame you could not get a serviceable pump!
I should add a grease zerk!!!
Lol ot like your upside down on my end
Sorry
I ment from were the camera was n were the alternator was it apeared upside down on my phone lol
No need to say sorry, it looked diff after u started taking the pump off. Or it coukd have been my crazy phone. Looking good as always.
If u put vids out dailey id watch it. I learn alot too. Knowledge is power.
