Warren, I just rebuilt my swing cylinder on my 416 CAT, and looking at all those hoses and bolts I just decided to leave it on there! It wasn't that difficult! Also I don't have a HUGE vice to hold it while I take off the gland!! Most of the work you do on the piston and gland which comes right out!!! Sure wish I had a crane like yours though! One job I'm putting off is the seal on my torque converter is worn and she leaks when you shut her off. According to the manual, you rig up a sling to lower the tranny off of the roof of the cab. Sounds like fun!? Well at 63 I'm going to think on this a while!! Love your videos and your doggies!!
Sitting here watching your video while recovering from a back procedure, use everything you can to save your back. Back surgeries are most definitely not fun. Keep up the good work and keep safe!
I was a heavy equipment operator for 40 years worked with a lot of mechanic's and you are a good one don't listen to the nay sayers that's why they are watching your videos and not doing one of there own, keep them coming hand
Hey Warren, I am in Winnipeg Canada and I would like to thank you for your channel. I am an old HVAC mechanic so I have a slight knowledge of your trade. More importantly,I have been battling a serious infection the last two weeks and thank heavens I found your channel ,I have been unable to do anything of late, so you have provided a much needed way to pass the time. Thankfully,this nonsense I have contracted is leaving, however I am still going to follow your adventures. All the best Jack Martin
Hell yeah. My favorite channel 👍is it weird I get back home to the shop after a long day of servicing equipment and watch ya fix even more lol. I think I have a problem. But a good one.
If I could afford it you and your family would go on vacation. YOU NEED IT. But you would go crazy. Lol. Love your work ethic work work work. You are a RICH man. LIFE IS GREAT 👍
So glad I watched this. @35:50 you gave great tip on compressing the rings but put old wear ring over so hose clamp isn’t pressing on the seal. Thanks Warren beauty tip!
Good job!💪🏽I always put me a big hose clamp around the pin and put it around 2oclock when I'm tryna drive it out so that aggravating assed pin dont keep falling/sliding out the other side.
Warren, with all the smartasses (who aren't really smart) out in viewer land, you have to fight back. Good job. Good content. Good humor. Keep it coming.
I deffinately feel the pain on the bleeding. On blood thinners because of a heart attack. Keep pumping the vids out bud. I enjoy them as I am now on disability and unless there is groceries or grandkids I don't go out much
That's a good idea for the Teflon seals. I usually use a piston ring compressor to resize them. The wear ring and hose clamp sounds alot easier. Thanks 😉
Another great video thanks Warren....maybe a chest mount for the gopro would be worth a try? You can get holster type setups but the camera sits in the middle of your chest and you can point it up or down, it would reduce the head bob (that's what it's called lol)
That orange ring is the removal tool. If you install it after you take ok the snap ring you don't have to beat the rod out of the barrel. The snap ring groove is beveled on the one side so you don't need the ring for installation. It always gets caught and then you have to beat the cylinder head in. Also, people leave the orange ring under the nut so it's there for the next guy to disassemble if they don't have a seal kit. Keep up the good videos.
Never ceases to amaze me how deep and broad is your knowledge base and how methodical you are in your work. So tell me your secret on how you keep that camera clipped to the bill of your cap without it pulling the back of your cap up? I wear mine like that and it feels like I need a counter weight so it doesn't tip down over my eyes. You think some Red Locktite inside the headband might help? Appreciate all your video editing done in addition to your already full days.
I enjoy doing this kind of work. I've done this for aleast a dozen times. and know what? Yesterday I installed one of the seals on backwards by mistake. It costed me about 2 extra hours had to take it all apart and do it all over again. it was fun though. 🤭
I used to use a piece of steel banding material, measure my OD + some for the ears. I would form it into a compression ring with the ends bent out at 90 degrees and hold them tight against the lubed o-rings and seals with needle nose locking pliers to help keep them from rolling over. Commercially a piston compressor tool with the right ID could do the same thing. It's like having an extra hand. I keep a 4' length of banding strap in my truck for those oh cr*p momments.
Wuz thinkin if you set that bucket down on some type of dolly, you cud roll/swing it side to side to allow access to those trouble makers....great vids...keep em comin 👍🏻
My work toolbox looks about the same as your service truck tool collection, except I only push 1200lbs of tools and they are a little smaller than yours. I did ditch some hammers though. I never needed all 13 of them anyway.
I enjoyed watching this video. Just wish you have the first clip on how you remove the swing cylinder. I have a 1985 John Deere backhoe and I’m trying to figure out how to remove the barrel from underneath
This ol' boy knows what he's doing! "Clown Hammer" I like it, mine is named "Thor" makes me sound a bit more civilized, whatever that is? new to the channel, just SUB'd
Great job, love the videos. Just wondered why you don't use a trash box for all the rubbish rather than chucking it on the ground, would be less work at the end of the day, not having to pick everything up.
I thought most of those piston heads had a rubber O-ring on the inside to keep oil from going through the inside of them. Anyhow, thanks for the video and the play by play commentary; you make an hour go by fast.
No No No you did it all wrong. All your seals are backwards and you got left over parts in the sack you did it all wrong. What is wrong with you?........... Just had to say it. Excellent work as usual.
easier to leave the cylinder in the machine and just use a come-along to pull the rod with the gland and the piston out - you forgot to remove the snap ring and install the temporary red ring to prevent buggering up the gland threads before pulling the gland out.
Bro you do not have to say your sorry you are a buisnessman solo you gotta take the calls .at least until trouble or daisy can answer your phone and book jobs🖒🖒🖒🖒🖒keep up the great work
hydraulic shop I’d love to but zero time during work day to that. We have around 200-220 machines underground with only 50ish mechanics to keep them going... we desperately need more mechanics....
Could you please think about buying a magnet mount for your camera and also a tripod to set up off to the side to capture your work, don't wear the camera on your head, it very hard to watch because your moving so fast. Thanks, like your work.
Warren, great video. How many PSI does it take to take off that Nut at the 10:21 mark? I have a 310C and I was hoping I could do it with a cheater bar. I'm not a mechanics so I don't want to put no more money than possible into this project. Will the Earthquake XT 1/2" drive work with my small compressor from HF work? What size socket it that? Mine appears to be a 46mm (on the flats the nut measures 1.8"). Does that sound about right?
You ought to check out Abom79 (Adam Booth). He is a machinist that worked for Motion Industries up until a few months ago when he decided to focus on his own job shop and TH-cam. He did (and does) a good amount of hydraulic cylinder work. I think you'd find his stuff interesting. @Abom79
HI western great vid, but I dont know what your hitting with the long steel bar? Im doing m y first re packing on a 310D stabilizer and have a rusted snap ring. Any more tips be great thanks..
have a question about your service truck ? if i understand it right the air compressor is hooked in to the PTO ? or is it the generator ? if able to could you give us a run down on how the system works please
"They" also had to pay to have them manufactured and then had "their" money tied up sitting on a shelf until the dealer ordered the part, and then the dealer had money tied up sitting on a shelf generating $0.00 dollars until someone purchased the part. If you think it's such a lucrative market - go into the hydraulic seal business...
@@buckhorncortez I'd be surprised if a single one of those seals aren't off the shelf parts. I'd be shocked if deere has $5 their cost into one of those kits
Buckhorn Cortez you are arguing with a crowd of regular joe technicians not accountants. As complicated as these many repairs look to be, the book keeping that brings them to the job site boggles the mind. Warrens knowledge and skill level are also mind boggling.
So far, the 510 doesnt have any cylinders leaking. The alternator died and I just wired in one off a chevy. matches perfectly. the control valves need new o rings. thats coming up.
Hi Warren, a while ago you showed us some measuring tools that you got from an old Cat worker, here is 3 short videos that explaines how some of your test measurering tools are used : th-cam.com/video/v9offFgLtCQ/w-d-xo.html and : th-cam.com/video/kvkO_If3UVg/w-d-xo.html and : th-cam.com/video/GTNf1W9zMD0/w-d-xo.html, and here is Abom79 using the KIT KING Seal twister, just thought you could use such a kit, love your videos and "talks from the Cab" where we both hear your stories and watch the landscape, all the best to you and yours.
Better than anything on primetime television, and I don't even have cable lol
Maybe been a year now since ive turned on the tv l=p
No TV in my house for 15 years. Best decision we ever made for our kids.
There is nothing good on tv anymore. Waste of electric,hollyweierd is on its way out.

Your video is the best one on HYD that I found. great job ,.at least you know what your talking about
Omg. The pain of the Deere cylinders with the orange ring. I got cheap and starts buying cheap kits from Hercules. Thanks for the informative video.

I feel your pain, putting something down and losing it.
Hey young man, you're very talanted and funny, Keep it up. Wishing you the best.
Great video super helpful had to do a bucket cylinder on my John deer 310
Love watching your videos .

Not bad,liked to have seen the install.
I drank a bottle of K-Seal, now when i spring a leak the bleeding stops immedtatly! K-Seal works awsome for ur radiator leaks too!
All hail the restorer of POWER
a piece of hose on the fitting to collect the oil, brilliant
Warren A very interesting video Thank you
Thank you Sir👍👍👍👍👍
That Earthquake does a good job I need to get one of them. Priced Right too

My little Brother does the same kind of work, but , he lives in Arkansas and I live in Iowa. Its kinda hard to watch him. your videos are addictive.
Emotion's, you save all yours for the dogs, the missus probably understands that.
Maybe trans gel and seals after the carbide bit lol. Good stuff love your videos.
The head mount is pretty good .Would be better if it was angled down just a little bit more. Thanks for the good videos.
A surgeon, good job
If you turn that cylinder vertical it makes putting back together nice
Damn they included seal drivers. Holy shit !
My work toolbox looks about the same as your service truck tool collection, except I only push 1200lbs of tools and they are a little smaller than yours. I did ditch some hammers though. I never needed all 13 of them anyway.
1000th like, you’re welcome warren.
Thank you
I notice that is a bullet vise. I d weld it to the bumper. they are not cheap and you don`t nee some mud whistle stealing it
Lot better with the head mount!
I enjoyed watching this video. Just wish you have the first clip on how you remove the swing cylinder. I have a 1985 John Deere backhoe and I’m trying to figure out how to remove the barrel from underneath
Yes I have 85 case D. An still serching
I like the air hose and blow them apart much easier on the back and shoulders

Dont listen to those that knock you, they are just upset they never amounted to shit in their crappy lives.
When you were pushing in the ram it reminded me of morning at my house lol
She must be I can hear her breathing hard in the background oh you meant the hydraulic cylinder that must be the wind LOL
Much enjoyed...
Lol sonic boom. Probably broke alot of windows over at the engineering department. HAHAHAA
I wish I could have seen how you removed them. I am trying like hell to get mine removed off my 401c

Break into one you will just learn something lol they are not hard at all

@@daveb8773 Thank you for these two links.
Love the vids chap. Thanks.
Q. Do you have to remove the whole cylinder or could you not just pull the piston and leave the sleeve in situ?
I hardly ever pull the barrels just the rods and guides out fix them and shove them back in good to go
Is that 3/8 gun? Also I see you got that earth quake how well does it handle?
They are awesome !
HI western great vid, but I dont know what your hitting with the long steel bar? Im doing m y first re packing on a 310D stabilizer and have a rusted snap ring. Any more tips be great thanks..
It is good
just bought a seal kit for JD 4055 hydraulic pump. it said, made in Taiwan, province of China. They are being very diplomatic.
muskeg smith Damn shame. American companies are addicted to the smallest savings the Chinese manufacturers offer.
Pape wanted $480.00 for a 510 starter. I put in a new kit for $70.00 and its still working.
Is there a removal video of the cylinder it’s self
There’s a magnet mount for your camera, u can stick it to the truck n film away lol, or to tractors.
Torque to Spec = Tighten the ever livin shit out of it.........Hahahahaha my thoughts exactly
I like to clean and debur everything before I start installing the new parts.
