  • Well, we expected hiccups and some bumps in the road, which is why we wanted to get these drills into the ground and find them! But that doesn't make things any easier in the heat of the moment. Welcome to farming! 🤷🏼‍♂️😆

    Good to find the problem. The shop trailer is already proven its worth. Thanks for sharing the evening with us Mike...yes, the sunset was special.

    Replaced one of those lines last year. Sits on top of a corner on the frame just inside the rear end. Of course it couldn’t have been 1/4” longer to mitigate the stress. Replacing it isn’t as bad as you think. Unless it’s around 0 with 60k wind. 😂

    Glad it was just an o ring. I’d hate to dig those lines out of there and a dealer call is at least another day delay. You keep it up brother. Thank you for sharing so much with us.

    Mike, I have a comment, you say that it's common for Case equipment to blow orings. Andy at FFF antd Nathan at Border View Farms run all JD and are constantly replacing orings. I'm sure that you have had your share of replacing them on your own JDs too.

      Only problem with a service trailer is u can’t pull it through mud to get somewhere thats why most dealers run service trucks but regardless i think its perfect for mikes needs also

  • @leddielive
    @leddielive 16 วันที่ผ่านมา +2

    If the nut had split I'm sure you would've noticed it, most likely a pinched O ring during manufacture? Nice to hear you much happier once you'd found the fault & had a plan in place to fix it.😃

  • @SouthWarsawBoys0124
    @SouthWarsawBoys0124 15 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

  • @jeffc6832
    @jeffc6832 16 วันที่ผ่านมา +4

    You should grab a couple Knipex pliers wrenches for each tractor. They are adjustable wrenches that clamp down hard and don't round anything off. Very handy to have around, especially if you don't know what size something is. There are several different sizes available.

    • @BigTader
      @BigTader 15 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Knipex are the best by far there's a lot of tool manufacturers that are trying to copy knipix but there no close I've used knipix for 30yrs or more. Great video Mike. Stay safe.

    Too bad it leaked in the crappy weather on ya. Flat face o ring kits are a must, though, to have on hand. The green ones blow them too. Ask me how I know😅😅😅😅 good luck with the rest of seeding!

  • @6by6by6

    • @leddielive
      @leddielive 16 วันที่ผ่านมา +4

      Perhaps you could buy some 'Travel first aid kits' & add an 'O ring kit' & target the farming community to buy your "Farmers Essential Tractor Kit", I'm sure they'll sell like hot cakes 🎂.

    • @ke6gwf

    Years ago I had a business developing maintenance tools for the mining and railway industries. The tools were based on 10,000 PSI hydraulic cylinders. A 20 cent O-ring can be a headache. I think the biggest O-ring catastrophe was the Challenger when they launched a too cold rocket and the O-rings had shrunk.

    Brake cleaner is amazing stuff it will knock bees wasps and hornets right out of the air I have been told it freezes their wings and just like an airplane that has ice buildup on the wings it won’t stay in the air and the cleaner is the best thing I have found for getting hydraulic fluid off the windows when you blow a line even when it is below zero Fahrenheit and the fluid turns into a semi solid mess almost like grease when it comes out of the grease gun

  • @carlosmontalvo9026
    @carlosmontalvo9026 16 วันที่ผ่านมา +2

    Very funny!
    50 cents Oring + to site transport = 50 dollars
    Hyd oil = 50 dollars
    2 farm hands repairing + transport = 400 dollars
    2 days of planting lost = more than 1000 dollars
    So a 400.000 dollar machine stops because a half dollar part is destroyed!
    Does that sound right?
    Is that consistent HIGH Reliability equipment?
