Working on a traverse lift 6035 shooting boom fork lift. Installing a new seat, starter, tilt gauge, fork tilt switch, oil change, and removing/installing the main lift cylinders.
I’m 74 yrs old and just watch you for hours. I love your way of doing things. My wife asks me what I’ve been doing all day and I say me and Andrew have been digging up stumps, cutting down trees, working on machinery and lots of other things. I sincerely feel like I’m at work with you! Thank you for making an old man feel like he’s doing something! Keep it up!
I met my wife in a parking lot. Her car wouldn't start. I walked over with a wrench I found in my truck and asked if she could pop the hood. Luckily the starter was in reach and I smacked it a few times as she turned it over. It started. I got her number. We've been married 8 years and have 3 daughters 😅
I always thought that the hitting with a hammer trick was only relevant if the solenoid was not engaging. That was turning over, but very slowly, so I would not have expected the hammer trick to work. That was very clever swapping the component parts from new to old starter though. How many people would have even thought of that, yet alone managed to do it.

You are my hero, Andrew !! I absolutely love watching your projects - whatever they are !! You are an inspiration to not only me, but to a LOT of folk who follow your videos !! You seem to resolve most of your challenges in a calm and cool approach. Keep up the great examples an may our Lord Bless you accordingly !!
Andrew I love how despite some of the more unorthodox ways of getting things done you always get things done in such a graceful manner and with safety always in mind, seat belts, hard hat, safety glasses, ear protection you're smart man way beyond your years. Glad to see how much your channels grown Keep it up man we all love your videos!
It goes without saying - I'm as impressed as anyone with AC and his skills even though I've had, driven, and repaired and repaired and repaired several old Jeeps, but I've never imagined gutting a starter motor to make it work in the old housing when the new starter housing won't clear the exhaust. Hella skills, this guy.
i m 70 and i see you do the improbable and at your age im very impressed i was born and raised on a dairy farm and we did everything for our selves and that is one of the reasons i watch you and agree with most of your decisions i also love your work ethic it reminds me of my grandfather who raised me and im actually proud of a person like you you are few and far between
I remember when TH-cam suggested the fixing up the Yanmar video for months and I keep thinking "Why do I care about that?" And then I finally watched it so it'd stop being recommended and I'm still here because this is one of the best channels on TH-cam.
I watched a video of Andrew's probably a month or so after it got posted on Andrew's channel, it was a driveway video that Andrew posted at the end of may of 2019. I ended up starting to watch it on one of my other channels, due to the video being recommended on my other channel, but I decided to move the video over to my main channel. :)
No U, I am a bit confused as to why you would use Andrew Camarata's channel to recommend this other channel. I found Jesse Muller through AC's channel and he is very similar to AC and I love his videos just as I do Andrew's so I thought I would give this other guy a try also. I lasted less than 30 seconds. I have NEVER heard Jesse or Andrew use even one curse word and in the 30 seconds on this other channel that is all I heard. Sorry, but I thought this channel was one that you recommended on AC's channel because basically their channels are similar. No they aren't. I LOVE Andrew's and Jesse's videos and when I see a new one by either of them everything else goes on hold while I check out their latest. I will not EVER go back and even attempt to watch this other guy's channel again. Who is he trying to impress? Preteen boys who have just learned some nasty words and want to use them to show all their little friends how big they are? Now, he might use zip ties to MacGyver things together and if so that might be interesting but I can't get past his filthy mouth long enough so see if that's true. BTW, I have heard all kinds of language as I was married to a SAILOR for over 30 years but I never heard him use language just for the sake of using language! Nope. Not for me. So no, you are NOT in for a treat. You are in for a nasty little disappointment. Don't waste your time even checking this out.
I made a lot of things look professional with electrical or duct tape. I've even used PVC pipe underneath to make it round and or solid. Good job Andrew you just upped the value and made it easier and safer to use.
Andrew! From Cody drinking sports drink and his rooster...to everything you managed to figure out on that forklift was just GREAT! Maybe your best ever. Editing was fabulous.
Those are self aligning bushings at the upper end of the cylinders. They are supposed to be a pressed fit in those cylinders. The inner race is supposed to be a slip fit on the shaft and the nut keeps it tight. However both of yours are sized to the shaft because they were not properly greased. The proper way to fix this issue is to cut the old self aligning bushings off the shaft and have new bushings pressed into the cylinders. Since you ground the inside of the one open, it is ruined. It will need to either have a replacement end on it or have it machined larger to accept a sleeve which will bring it back to the proper size to allow the new bushing to be pressed in. If you continue to operate this machine with your big washer, you will eventually ruin the cylinder because it is unable to keep proper alignment. It will begin to twist and possibly blow seals in the cylinder or twist the rod until it cracks or breaks. You could even see cracks in the welds of the actual frame of the boom. I am a machinist and I have operated and ran heavy equipment for years. Don't take me as a troll. I love your videos and I've been laughing for an hour about your " I read this in the manual" comment. Love how the castle is turning out! When are you going to repaint the little Kamat'su?
Since it would be hard to press fit them on with the cylinder installed. Could he freeze the new bushing and drop it in? That is a pretty big diameter and i've seen that be successful in the field.
Freezing the bushing will definitely help with installing it in the eye of the rod. I don't remember seeing Andrew having a hydraulic press, but I'm sure he can come up with a way to press it in lol.
Yeah man, I'm a 25 year old gamer but EVERY video AC uploads I watch instantly. Andrew, I'm not sure you realize but you honestly inspire a lot of us younger guys to get out and do shit. Thank you! :)
You make the best videos I’ve seen, the editing is really professional! Never a boring moment Andrew, I believe there’s nothing you can’t do or won’t try! I love the Castle and watching you build it! I’m in Louisiana and I’d love to visit it just to see it and shake your hand! Of course I’d love to have an autograph! lol you’ll go a lot ways Andrew, you’re an amazing kind of person! Much respect and keep the videos coming brother! Thanks so much! 👍🏻
That washer is soooo important you should pull the home made off as its now pinching the cylinder and that small washer is what sets the preload on the bushing.its your machine just want you to know the reason its a bad idea
Andrew I'm sure someone else has mentioned this but I'll mention it too. That spherical bearing on the boom end of the hydraulic cylinder is supposed the be pressed into the cylinder it's supposed to slip on to the bolt. Both bearings were seized to the bolt. That's why the washer is the size it is and why it came off so hard. Great video and I can't get over those prices from Pettibone.
Seconded here. In my few years of Aviation experience, a spherical is NEVER pressed onto the ID, only pressed onto the OD. The washer is undersized because that joint sees no side loads so there's no reason to brace the press-fit portion, only the slip-fit portion. With your oversize "washer", I'd up the thickness to the next size you got in the scrap bin and just leave it at that, it's not a big deal. The rod end can be replaced by a machinist later if needed.
The oversize washer will grind the end joints at where it's sit during the boom moving up and down and will seize or loosing the nut where it should free from touching the end joints ear.
I ain't a machinist, mechanic, etc. but from an engineering standpoint, what they're mentioning here is sound advice. You don't want to hold the nut again the boom as it moves, and now that you have a washer filled with jagged edges grinding up against the boom as it rotates, I think you're going to cause some damage. You are thinking that the washer increases the surface area of the nut to the boom which is the technical purpose of a washer, but in this case the boom's rotation shouldn't be transferred into the nut through direct contact (washer or not). Unless you think that the booms movement should eventually undo the nut (like a ratchet), is the intended design. If those washers are OEM, I would just trust that the manufacturer did it on purpose in this case.
1.Cut off old spherical bearing. 2.Either bore out for larger bearing or weld and bore for replacement bearing. 3.Have hydraulic shop press new bearing. 4.Throw homemade washer in the bin and use original washer.
I love watching Andrew because he reminds me of my Grandpa, who was a bricklayer but he could fix and rebuild anything. He would have LOVED this channel!!!!
He was from Northern Ohio and he built two family homes over the years and the entryway to one of them had that blue stone you see in a lot of videos that he polished so beautifully.
AC this is the 3rd time watching this for me and I died again when you said “for 300 dollars this is gonna stay broken”.....when talking about the dash level. I agree with you about most tools and equipment...it better make money or at least not spend too much to do it’s job. Love your content and glad to see your Castle shop evolve to have more style befitting the KING....of “no frills but results” property maintenance in the Catskills.....
I have only gotten to the 4:47 mark and it has already became the story of my life. To do A, you must first do B, to do B, but you can't do B because C isn't working, so let's fix D to get C in a slightly useable state. (edit) Wow, only got to 7:23 and we have already thrown E and F into the mix too..
My father in laws truck started as a simple front end job and after it fighting me the entire way coming apart i find yet more wrong so replace that crap and now we are just about to the point where we started of a truck on jack stands but hey not its got a new power steering pump and steering gear.
Gotta confess - I've been tempted to swap guts in parts but worried too much - But when making a living depends on it - no fear. Straight genius and you saved a ton of money on the entire rebuild - another good one. Thx Andrew
For your enlightenment...on the lower end it is a slip fit...on upper end where piston and dog ear connector is its a press fit...that way all wear goes to the bearing which is replaceable...way you did it by filing/honing the surface will cause bearing to slip in dog ear connector wearing out connector resulting in replacing the piston and after it starts wearing the connector you will end up replacing seals in unit on regular basis...way to do the upper end would be to get someone to pry bar end off while you were heating the upper dog ear...just saying...I worked for 8 years in a machine shop in Indiana then moved to Florida to work at the mines in there machine shop where I made parts and rebuilt all the too large and heavy equipment...like auto transmissions the size of a full size Ford car...then after 10 years went into the field replacing parts(pipelines ,gearboxes,etc) as was a lot less stress on me and much better pay. I am now 70 years old and do little as far as work goes...love your vids by the way!
People like you and Andrew keep this country moving! Sharing your experience that could save him money, gotta love it! Thank you sir, for many years of hard work
Great info. Do you have any tips for repairing an older cylinder style that has the oblong eye hole and keeper ring/wire instead of a threaded end. Just on my little skidsteer but I have welded it up 3-4 times now. Cracks always creep out from edges of the oblong hole that cap retaining wire goes into. Should I just spot weld a couple extra tabs around those edges to give it a little extra support?
@@peterwill3699 Last 8 years worked as a maintenance mechanic in a phosphate mine lugging 80 lbs of tools up 100-200 ft of stairs so joints are worn out...before that a maintenance machinist working on large machines as far as taking apart...seeing what was broke machining shafts making gears and repairing same with new parts when available...retired disabled in 2005
Hope my great grandchildren (boys 2, 6, 9) are inspired by your process, enjoyment of each challenge, and most of all a job well done, we love watching.
Andrew my Milwaukee drill driver had that same bad bearing noise once, used a feeler gauge and slid it under the seal then gave it a good shot of ATV chain lube....quiet as when new. Cody and his Gatorade bottle reminds me of my last pup the way he holds it just right to drink it and not spill any, until he was done anyway.
I get asked all the time by my wife too.. :-p Eeeevery time its like "watching some american fixing machines and building huge things".. she just shakes her head .. xD
*- I love it, Andrew, your pup is as smart as you figuring out how to solve problems.* *- I see why you talk to him as if you already know he has telepathically understood what you are saying.*
The smaller washer tightens against the bearing and allows the cylinder to pivot...adding that big one will cause it to bind and try to do up or undo the nut as you lift the boom up and down 👍🏼
anyone else thing he should have rotated the cylinder rod end over to see if one side of the hole was a sea hair bigger on one side to accept the bearing?
Seems we are unfamiliar with sarcasm, Ryan... (The Simpsons; Comic Book Guy). ;-) And Yes, Paul. Manuals just send Andrew in the wrong direction. :-0 This, though, is the first time I have seen him gall something. He is still SO good. Way better than I.
tbh i wouldnt be suprised if some form of brute force is actually required to remove them, if not noted in the service manual, probs in every service techs "the actual way", probably a winch it off with all the slings on it to spread the load job the contact areea when picking up thousand of pounds can be measured in square inches (and mostly on the front ram pins), and lets not mention the intant force of shovelling, those rams were probs stuck to the bearings
“That’s how you do it, I read it in the manual.” Lol. I have watched every single one of you’re videos and not skipped a single second. This is the sorta stuff that should be on TV. Keep it up mate.
Television producers and directors would ruin this just like they do with everything that's on tv. I do understand what you mean but hopefully Andrew sticks with this on here
Why is the a popular Utube channel...its the attention to details. I can’t imagine how much extra time it takes to just get all the right camera angles for the viewer to see what you are doing. Never mind the editing?!? It’s appreciated Andrew.
Andrew: "Bet they didn't expect ya to put a pipe on this thing." Archimedes: " Give me a long enough lever and a place to stand...and I'll move the world."
It’s been about a month now since I started watching you vids, you have changed my outlook on working on my own equipment…. Thanks. Keep them coming!!!!
hey andrew, welcome to the world of hydraulic cylinders i've been doing that kind of work for most of my career and i understand the frustration when it comes to dealing with those sometimes. That spherical bearing can always be a pain to deal with doing it the way you did it, the yoke looks straight but if that bearing tilts even slightly it will bind up as you saw. Not to mention what it did to the machined out part the bearing goes into, that misalignment and trying to force it on is what did that to it. I know hindsight is 20/20 but next time you have to deal with one of those setups remove that spherical bearing after you get it apart and insert it into the yoke first before putting the rod back on the shaft, it's a lot easier to deal with that way. Also in a lot of cases those spherical bearings might just have a retainer ring holding it in on either side (in some cases). Those retainer rings are not like your normal snap ring, they are like a layered flat spring steel coiled flat and are designed to be removed by prying out one end of the ring coil and pulling it out from the groove it is inset into. Not saying that was the case with your setup but i see that a lot on machines i work on like those telehandlers and also in some other equipment I've worked on in the past. The home made washer works just as good though when your in a pinch 😉. Oh and sending those cylinders out to the shop was your best move, as old as that unit is and as big as those cylinders were it's best safety wise to let someone else do it, the ram seals were probably dry rotted along with the packing nut seals. I've done some that size out in the field before and trust me when i say they are not fun to deal with unless you have the machines to take them apart and put then back together. What was that cody was getting into with that bottle of drink? whatever it was he wanted it real bad lol, chewed the top off and everything 😉😂 Nice job on that control handle, i never would have thought of doing it that way, and yeah, they think those things are made out of gold or something the way they price them 😒 i have a couple of GEHL's and a Gradall and some genie and jlg lifts i keep up that use joysticks on them and their pricing is all over the place but in general they are very high priced for what you get. Keep up the excellent videos buddy, i always enjoy your ingenuity when it comes to figuring out stuff and also love watching cody and levi 👍😎
@swoopulater I have a old Pettibone loader and backhoe 4wd. It articulates in middle like a skidder. It's the same size as a skidder. The steering wheel just spends but the tires don't move.is it a bad steering box? Whole machine is hydraulic powered
Open the mailbox: "Andrew Camarata just uploaded a video". Take a time. Grab a beer. Sit and relax. Press Play. Thank you Andrew for all your effort. Thanks from a fan from Brazil!!! Hope to be in US soon!
Been up one day and already has over 200 thousand views. Evidently a LOT of people grab a beer and sit down when Andrew puts up another video! It would appear that Andrew is doing rather well.
@@scottkasper6378 I live in the south of Brazil, but when I talk about being there soon, I mean one or two years unfortunately. It's a beautiful and amazing country, I would love to be there.
I was like uhh andrew when he had a 3ft pipe wrench and all the pipes on it i know from experience on a smaller scale that bad shit happens fast like that.
Not only is this guy a hell of a mechanic, he also knows how to move heavy stuff around! Check it out, he still has all his fingers! I love watching this channel. Very informative!
The inner part of the eye suppose to stay with the ram. When you ripped apart you destroyed the eye the swivel part is a machined press fit. To be safe need new eyes welded back on to the rod ends of the ram. With what has happened. The rams can pop off under load. Sorry should of talked to the guy repaired the ram, he should of said something.
He did rip them off but there's really no way for the eye to slip off the boom as he put the larger washer on there. The boom would bend before there is enough force to pop that ram through the 1/4 washer he put on there.
Did he make another washer for the other side. He made a mistake removing them off for sure, and should look into fixing this issue, but we only seen him make one larger washer.
I have rebuilt many cylinders over my lifetime and I can tell you from watching your videos for a couple years now and in my opinion you are more than capable to do them yourself.
Your videos are such a big inspiration!! A few days ago i watched a video of you where you fixing small engines, a few hours later i bougth a broken lawn mower and tried to get it back, what worked!!! It's so fun to work on the engines and hear them run at the end. Find your videos really good please keep it up!! Nice greetings from Germany Hopefully my english is not too bad
Bonjour (de Belgique) vous êtes de loin le meilleur mécanicien (entre autre) que j'ai jamais vu et j'ai 70 ans . Vous mettez la main à tout , You are the best . J'aime beaucoup vous regarder travailler .
UnitedStatesofBuild Yes, but it was way more cringy to watch the 10 ft of leverage being applied to something that’s obviously not lined up, and where the nut didn’t have a full bite on the bolt even I think.
For the record, I bought some of the shrink wrap sodder connectors! Love seeing new things made even better. Watching your wiring and testing is quite educating and fun to watch. Your true nature & seeing how take things in stride, a refreshing and a blessing! Thanks Andrew, Cody, and Levi! You all put a smile on my face.
I put things together with those shrink rap tubes that had nothing to do with wiring. I even repaired the pool vacuum (underwater). I don't know, I build metal things and I use a lot of grease and oil.
These are some of my favorite AC content, Andrew always turning a sows ear into a silk purse or something along those lines. Thank you Andrew for all you do, stay safe and stay awesome 😎
Great thinking to realize the new internals were able to swap into the old starter case! Problem solved and works great too. Way to find a work around and get the job done!
I wonder how many people were commenting telling you you're an idiot and that it was the battery not the starter and then were shocked when they realized you were right. lol

Andrew! From Cody drinking sports drink and his rooster...to everything you managed to figure out on that forklift was just GREAT! Maybe your best ever. Editing was fabulous.
Those are self aligning bushings at the upper end of the cylinders. They are supposed to be a pressed fit in those cylinders. The inner race is supposed to be a slip fit on the shaft and the nut keeps it tight. However both of yours are sized to the shaft because they were not properly greased. The proper way to fix this issue is to cut the old self aligning bushings off the shaft and have new bushings pressed into the cylinders. Since you ground the inside of the one open, it is ruined. It will need to either have a replacement end on it or have it machined larger to accept a sleeve which will bring it back to the proper size to allow the new bushing to be pressed in.
If you continue to operate this machine with your big washer, you will eventually ruin the cylinder because it is unable to keep proper alignment. It will begin to twist and possibly blow seals in the cylinder or twist the rod until it cracks or breaks. You could even see cracks in the welds of the actual frame of the boom.
I am a machinist and I have operated and ran heavy equipment for years.
Don't take me as a troll. I love your videos and I've been laughing for an hour about your " I read this in the manual" comment. Love how the castle is turning out! When are you going to repaint the little Kamat'su?
Since it would be hard to press fit them on with the cylinder installed. Could he freeze the new bushing and drop it in? That is a pretty big diameter and i've seen that be successful in the field.
How do we tag him so he sees this?
#andrewcamarata
Keep tag him.
Freezing the bushing will definitely help with installing it in the eye of the rod. I don't remember seeing Andrew having a hydraulic press, but I'm sure he can come up with a way to press it in lol.
Surprised the cylinder guys didn't ask about the bearings...
Little komatsu repaint would be a good one. Hopefully andrew sees your comment.
Im being completely honest, you are definitely my favorite channel throughout all of youtube!
Thanks
Yeah man, I'm a 25 year old gamer but EVERY video AC uploads I watch instantly. Andrew, I'm not sure you realize but you honestly inspire a lot of us younger guys to get out and do shit. Thank you! :)
that goes well for me too...
How many other people on you tube do you want to watch all the video’s?
Agreed!
You make the best videos I’ve seen, the editing is really professional! Never a boring moment Andrew, I believe there’s nothing you can’t do or won’t try! I love the Castle and watching you build it! I’m in Louisiana and I’d love to visit it just to see it and shake your hand! Of course I’d love to have an autograph! lol you’ll go a lot ways Andrew, you’re an amazing kind of person! Much respect and keep the videos coming brother! Thanks so much! 👍🏻
Thank you.
Andrews videos are so good because he doesn't try to explain like he is talking to a 3 year old child, thanks Lewis
the washer is to hold the centre bearing and allows the outer bearing to pivot with the ram movment
Yup. if he keeps it on, every time he changes the angle of the boom, his new washer is going to cause wear.
You forgot that its pressed on and basically messed it up.
That washer is soooo important you should pull the home made off as its now pinching the cylinder and that small washer is what sets the preload on the bushing.its your machine just want you to know the reason its a bad idea
Andrew I'm sure someone else has mentioned this but I'll mention it too. That spherical bearing on the boom end of the hydraulic cylinder is supposed the be pressed into the cylinder it's supposed to slip on to the bolt. Both bearings were seized to the bolt. That's why the washer is the size it is and why it came off so hard. Great video and I can't get over those prices from Pettibone.
Seconded here. In my few years of Aviation experience, a spherical is NEVER pressed onto the ID, only pressed onto the OD. The washer is undersized because that joint sees no side loads so there's no reason to brace the press-fit portion, only the slip-fit portion. With your oversize "washer", I'd up the thickness to the next size you got in the scrap bin and just leave it at that, it's not a big deal. The rod end can be replaced by a machinist later if needed.
The oversize washer will grind the end joints at where it's sit during the boom moving up and down and will seize or loosing the nut where it should free from touching the end joints ear.
I ain't a machinist, mechanic, etc. but from an engineering standpoint, what they're mentioning here is sound advice. You don't want to hold the nut again the boom as it moves, and now that you have a washer filled with jagged edges grinding up against the boom as it rotates, I think you're going to cause some damage.
You are thinking that the washer increases the surface area of the nut to the boom which is the technical purpose of a washer, but in this case the boom's rotation shouldn't be transferred into the nut through direct contact (washer or not). Unless you think that the booms movement should eventually undo the nut (like a ratchet), is the intended design.
If those washers are OEM, I would just trust that the manufacturer did it on purpose in this case.
1.Cut off old spherical bearing. 2.Either bore out for larger bearing or weld and bore for replacement bearing. 3.Have hydraulic shop press new bearing. 4.Throw homemade washer in the bin and use original washer.
When all else fails, get a bigger trackhoe.
I love watching Andrew because he reminds me of my Grandpa, who was a bricklayer but he could fix and rebuild anything. He would have LOVED this channel!!!!
He was from Northern Ohio and he built two family homes over the years and the entryway to one of them had that blue stone you see in a lot of videos that he polished so beautifully.
In his 70s he added a garage to his house without any help.
Being a bricklayer he had a ton of levels and I still have one. He would have been very intrigued with the lasting levels and also with the castle!!!
AC this is the 3rd time watching this for me and I died again when you said “for 300 dollars this is gonna stay broken”.....when talking about the dash level. I agree with you about most tools and equipment...it better make money or at least not spend too much to do it’s job. Love your content and glad to see your Castle shop evolve to have more style befitting the KING....of “no frills but results” property maintenance in the Catskills.....

I have only gotten to the 4:47 mark and it has already became the story of my life.
To do A, you must first do B, to do B, but you can't do B because C isn't working, so let's fix D to get C in a slightly useable state.
(edit) Wow, only got to 7:23 and we have already thrown E and F into the mix too..
My father in laws truck started as a simple front end job and after it fighting me the entire way coming apart i find yet more wrong so replace that crap and now we are just about to the point where we started of a truck on jack stands but hey not its got a new power steering pump and steering gear.
Gotta confess - I've been tempted to swap guts in parts but worried too much - But when making a living depends on it - no fear. Straight genius and you saved a ton of money on the entire rebuild - another good one. Thx Andrew
Wow, I give you lots of credit. Just watching this exhausted me. Especially following watching that bobcat drive motor replacement.
"Let's just start unbolting stuff and see what happens" I love that 😄💪
I might need this quote on a t-shirt Andrew!
For your enlightenment...on the lower end it is a slip fit...on upper end where piston and dog ear connector is its a press fit...that way all wear goes to the bearing which is replaceable...way you did it by filing/honing the surface will cause bearing to slip in dog ear connector wearing out connector resulting in replacing the piston and after it starts wearing the connector you will end up replacing seals in unit on regular basis...way to do the upper end would be to get someone to pry bar end off while you were heating the upper dog ear...just saying...I worked for 8 years in a machine shop in Indiana then moved to Florida to work at the mines in there machine shop where I made parts and rebuilt all the too large and heavy equipment...like auto transmissions the size of a full size Ford car...then after 10 years went into the field replacing parts(pipelines ,gearboxes,etc) as was a lot less stress on me and much better pay. I am now 70 years old and do little as far as work goes...love your vids by the way!
People like you and Andrew keep this country moving! Sharing your experience that could save him money, gotta love it! Thank you sir, for many years of hard work
Great info. Do you have any tips for repairing an older cylinder style that has the oblong eye hole and keeper ring/wire instead of a threaded end. Just on my little skidsteer but I have welded it up 3-4 times now. Cracks always creep out from edges of the oblong hole that cap retaining wire goes into. Should I just spot weld a couple extra tabs around those edges to give it a little extra support?
Shouldn't the bearing be pressed in to the piston or held by circlips?
Hard way to make a living,how's your body now.

Hope my great grandchildren (boys 2, 6, 9) are inspired by your process, enjoyment of each challenge, and most of all a job well done, we love watching.
Andrew my Milwaukee drill driver had that same bad bearing noise once, used a feeler gauge and slid it under the seal then gave it a good shot of ATV chain lube....quiet as when new. Cody and his Gatorade bottle reminds me of my last pup the way he holds it just right to drink it and not spill any, until he was done anyway.

Cody drinking that Gatorade was so wholesome!
"Its got a lot of little things that need fixing, like it constantly sounding like it's on fire."
The smaller washer tightens against the bearing and allows the cylinder to pivot...adding that big one will cause it to bind and try to do up or undo the nut as you lift the boom up and down 👍🏼
Where did your puppy
Agreed. Leave the small washer on then the big washer. Make sure the big washer is free and not touching the rod.
I was going to comment the exact same thing.
Also looks like it’s a bit of a shield for dust and dirt.
anyone else thing he should have rotated the cylinder rod end over to see if one side of the hole was a sea hair bigger on one side to accept the bearing?
@@cdoublejj I wondered if it was tapered!
"That's how you do it right there , read this in the manual"🤣🤣
Well done, Andrew.
I'll remember how you greased the rubber seal of the new oil filter.
I always got an oily finger in the past, LOL!
“I read about that in the manual” = biggest lie AC had ever told.
I agree I don't think he has ever seen one lol
Seems we are unfamiliar with sarcasm, Ryan... (The Simpsons; Comic Book Guy). ;-) And Yes, Paul. Manuals just send Andrew in the wrong direction. :-0 This, though, is the first time I have seen him gall something. He is still SO good. Way better than I.
tbh i wouldnt be suprised if some form of brute force is actually required to remove them, if not noted in the service manual, probs in every service techs "the actual way", probably a winch it off with all the slings on it to spread the load job
the contact areea when picking up thousand of pounds can be measured in square inches (and mostly on the front ram pins), and lets not mention the intant force of shovelling, those rams were probs stuck to the bearings
was laughing hard after hearing him say that
“That’s how you do it, I read it in the manual.” Lol. I have watched every single one of you’re videos and not skipped a single second. This is the sorta stuff that should be on TV. Keep it up mate.
Television producers and directors would ruin this just like they do with everything that's on tv. I do understand what you mean but hopefully Andrew sticks with this on here
THAT MOVE SWITCHING THE MOTOR IN THE STARTER IS THE WORK OF LEGENDS. AND MY FRIEND YOU ARE A LEGEND.
I like his get it done approach to everything. I would not be surprised if this thing gets sold as soon as the Castle is finished
Why is the a popular Utube channel...its the attention to details. I can’t imagine how much extra time it takes to just get all the right camera angles for the viewer to see what you are doing. Never mind the editing?!? It’s appreciated Andrew.

hey andrew, welcome to the world of hydraulic cylinders
i've been doing that kind of work for most of my career and i understand the frustration when it comes to dealing with those sometimes.
That spherical bearing can always be a pain to deal with doing it the way you did it, the yoke looks straight but if that bearing tilts even slightly it will bind up as you saw.
Not to mention what it did to the machined out part the bearing goes into, that misalignment and trying to force it on is what did that to it.
I know hindsight is 20/20 but next time you have to deal with one of those setups remove that spherical bearing after you get it apart and insert it into the yoke first before putting the rod back on the shaft, it's a lot easier to deal with that way. Also in a lot of cases those spherical bearings might just have a retainer ring holding it in on either side (in some cases). Those retainer rings are not like your normal snap ring, they are like a layered flat spring steel coiled flat and are designed to be removed by prying out one end of the ring coil and pulling it out from the groove it is inset into. Not saying that was the case with your setup but i see that a lot on machines i work on like those telehandlers and also in some other equipment I've worked on in the past. The home made washer works just as good though when your in a pinch 😉. Oh and sending those cylinders out to the shop was your best move, as old as that unit is and as big as those cylinders were it's best safety wise to let someone else do it, the ram seals were probably dry rotted along with the packing nut seals. I've done some that size out in the field before and trust me when i say they are not fun to deal with unless you have the machines to take them apart and put then back together.
What was that cody was getting into with that bottle of drink? whatever it was he wanted it real bad lol, chewed the top off and everything 😉😂
Nice job on that control handle, i never would have thought of doing it that way, and yeah, they think those things are made out of gold or something the way they price them 😒
i have a couple of GEHL's and a Gradall and some genie and jlg lifts i keep up that use joysticks on them and their pricing is all over the place but in general they are very high priced for what you get.
Keep up the excellent videos buddy, i always enjoy your ingenuity when it comes to figuring out stuff and also love watching cody and levi 👍😎

"Let's take it outside and forklift some stuff."
Man it's great watching AC!
that's a great line
The inner part of the eye suppose to stay with the ram. When you ripped apart you destroyed the eye the swivel part is a machined press fit. To be safe need new eyes welded back on to the rod ends of the ram. With what has happened. The rams can pop off under load. Sorry should of talked to the guy repaired the ram, he should of said something.
I agree, spherical bearing is most likely staked in, same with hydraulic cylinder guy.
Possibly can be repaired with some weld blobs.
Came here for this! haha.. Question is, would that hydraulic puller finessed it off?
He did rip them off but there's really no way for the eye to slip off the boom as he put the larger washer on there. The boom would bend before there is enough force to pop that ram through the 1/4 washer he put on there.
He took it apart wrong. Jacked the cylinder. I believe the small so called washers are spacers and not washers
Did he make another washer for the other side. He made a mistake removing them off for sure, and should look into fixing this issue, but we only seen him make one larger washer.
I love how careful and precise you were with taking those cylinders off🤣😂
Great to see a young guy with a great work ethic and the willingness to tackle any job! Kudos Andrew!!!
I have rebuilt many cylinders over my lifetime and I can tell you from watching your videos for a couple years now and in my opinion you are more than capable to do them yourself.
