Ex-military 6x6 v12 truck restauration: Replacing the protective rubber axle sleeves on a Tatra 815
This week I tried to replace the protective sleeves for the axles! I forgot to drain the oil before hand but I think that there would be oil coming out anyway. Never the less good progress is being made! The diesel lines of the previous video are also replaced! I did find some new air leaks that will need to be resolved...

    are you sure rubber hoses will do it?! Tatra didn't put the metal pipes there for nothing, it's an air-cooled engine (with oil) and there will be high temperatures right there near the engine. The 120°C temperature of the engine (oil) shown by the thermometer is no exception. Look in the cabin for the thermometers to which values ​​they are calibrated. The temperature of the cylinder head ranges from 120 - 180 - 240°C.

      @HenkTheCamperTank День тому

      Thanks for the reply! Good point. I choose rubber ones because on the left close to the engine there were already rubber lines. The lines that I bought are for meant for high temperature in the engine compartment. But I will double check the temperatures! Thanks for the feedback! Much appreciated 😄

    in 1985 i got this model brand new in the army. You're missing a folding bed behind the seats, I didn't see a headlight on the roof, the exhaust can also be turned upwards. When renovating, pay attention to all cardan joints and all parts where there are grease nipples and wring out the old one properly. You will also need almost 10 kg of petroleum jelly. The winch rope is 80 m long. When the engine is in good condition, even with a load of 5 tons, it can reach a maximum of 115 km/h. I really liked this car. Otherwise, the power of the engine for pulling is 45t, it was developed mainly as a tractor for military equipment.

    • @HenkTheCamperTank
      @HenkTheCamperTank Місяць тому

      Hi 👋 Awesome! 🙌 This one is from ‘86, I have the bed but I removed it to get some easier access underneath 😄 When I bought it the light was already missing sadly, but the handle and the switch on the inside of the cab are there! So I might look for a replacement. I ordered a lot of grease last week. I have a friend who is Czech and owns a lot of tatra. We checked all the oils, all was good! We did see that the joints that have rubber over it, the rubber needs to be replaced but no water had come in! Next step is engine oil replacement and repairing 1 air system for 1 tire as it is loosing pressure. Brakes looked almost new when I removed the brake drum. Last weekend we flipped the exhaust up! So we don’t walk through the fumes when it is running. Very nice information of you! Nice to meet you!

When you will put the drumms down ,do a mark on drumm and axle, that the drumm go back on the same axle. Is than much easier to fix the brakes👍🏻 after cleaning put some oil on the bolts up 😉 than the brake works much much better. If you nead some parts, do a list,and send it to me.

    Hi Henk, nice video 👍🏻 You do hard job with the Tyre. I have again some tips for you 😉👍🏻 1, Buy a bigger tools😅 You need big Hammer ⚒️ and big kee + 1,5m long steel pipe, otherways you broke your hands and body🫣 2, if the mothers from the srubs will not lose, heat the mothers little bit, put big kee+ this 1,5m long steel pipe,push, and some other guy , hit with the Hammer on the ker😉👍🏻💪🏻 You heart the knick noise and the mother lose. Than use electric or air pistol 😉👍🏻 3, buy on scrap old rim, turn the Tyre um 180° and put it on the old rim. The weight the Tyre help you, so you only hit the Tyre with big Hammer, and the Tyre fall Down. When not, put brake fluid betwem the Tyre and rim. 😉 4, when the tyre is Down from the rim, put out the intube, put some air in, and put it in some box, where you have water, than the bubles show your,where is the hole in the intube 😉👍🏻 5, you have a Tatra, you need mechanic or elektric lifter for 1,5ton + crane for 6t lift... This help you a realy lot. When i buy my first Tatra, and start check the tyres, after 2hours, i go on internet and buy lifter and crane 😅😅😁😁 6, NEVER USE THE THE BLACK POWER KEE FOR THE MOTHERS,THAT YOU USE ON VIDEO. THIS CAN DAMAGE THE MOTHER+ SRUBS AND THAN YOU HAVE BIG PROBLEM. ALWYAS HEATING WITH FIRE , THAN BIG TOOLS, THAN PUSH UND HIT.... 👍🏻💪🏻 Thats the easy way to fix it 😉🤝

      Yeah I have some things in mind, 1 is to paint the rims, parts are a bit rusty. The other part is to use “Däckpasta” as they call it in Sweden. It prevents the tire from sticking to the rim but ensures a tight seal. So that will hopefully work, but time will tell that 😅

      It should probably be obvious but: what is safer about the jack under the brake drum compared to what? Under the leaf springs? What a nice garage/storage space you have now! I can really see a nice workshop there!

      Previously I had the support under the axle, but the leaf spring is helt in place by C shaped metal to the axle. If the axle is supported there is no pressure in the C shaped metal and it can fall off 😅 the pressure of the leaf spring ensures that it stays on the axle. If I understood correctly. By placing it under the brake drum the leaf spring still puts pressure on this C shaped metal, holding it into place I’ll send you some images on instagram!

      @@janwijbrand hi Jan. The Tatra axle are different. On PVC trucks, is one long axle, but Tatra have half axles, so if you put the hydraulic jack only for par minutes under the C part on axle, to change the Tyre,than is ok. But, when you need more time, you muss put the jack under the Brakedramm, becouse, the weight of this half axle is pushink this hydraulick Jack to the side, and thic C part can fall out, and if you work under the Tatra, you dont wont,that the Jack or the axle hit you🫣🫣 so it is for your safety 🙏🙏 + on video,you can see, when Henk start lift the axle, first is comming up this C part, and than the axle with suspension. Tatra is for change the Tyres really special, so you muss be werry carrefull with that, extra with front axle, NEVER EVER PUT YOUR HEAD BETWEM THE CAB AND THE TYRE WHEN YOU HAVE TATRA FRONT AXLE ON HYDRAULICK JACK, THE SUSPENSION CAN CRACT,AND CUT YOUR HEAD 🪓💀 SOO SAFETY ALWAYS FIRST...I work with Tatra many years 😉🤝

    Hi Henk. Nice video 👍🏻👍🏻 But, what the idlling?? 🫣🫣 Still toooo high🫣 That the way, that you jump with the Tatra,and the startdrive is not constant 😉 . The diferencial lock - your Tatra have 5dif lock - 3 in axles and 2 betwem the axles. So for this Ride, always use this 2 lock betwem the axles - it cals midle differencial lock 👍🏻😉 . And for the air system to tyres i send you pictures,how you can fix on easy way. Tomorow i am in my garage, sooo i do pictures and video for you 👍🏻🤝 . Sooo always Remember this 5thinks: 1, start - first elektric pump for diesel, than stop pump and start with the key. 2, iddling - after start the rpm with the wheel on righ side set an 800rpm, after couple of minutes, set down to 500-550rpm Max. 3, By the start NEVER push the clutch. 4, By shit slipperi road or mud, before you drive push the button fór middle lock diferencial. 5, Tyre air pressure - 450-500kpa front, 550-600back, by slipperi road or mud set down to 350-400kpa front and 300kpa back.. maximum you can set to 100kpa front and 70kpa back👍🏻 Sooo if you use this 5 tips for begging, than is perfect,and you enjoy the easy Ride with Tatra👍🏻😉

    Hi Hank. It is starter. Lift the cab, take a hammr, one frend turn with the start key in cab, you hit 3,4,5,6,7 times the starter from a side. The starter dont work for a long time, so is stuck. On the starter is a realy short, cca 5-7cm long earthing, soo check it,if is ok 👍🏻😉

Using 2,starters together,is only when you start on other staff-petrolej, kerosin,benzin... Use 1 and after some starts, use second,that,they dont stuck again 👍🏻🤝 I have a manual book for your Tatra, so in case of big problem,i can do some pistures for you, or i can take the book with me to Sweden next time and you can do copy of the book 👍🏻

    Hi Hank... Niiiice 👍🏻👍🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻 But 4 thinks: 1, never , again ,NEVER push the clutch by the start. You can push the clutch only when you have air in system (900kpa) . When you push the clutch withaut air, you damage the booster (power) clutch under the cab, and is really shit work to fix it🙏🫣🫣 , so be cearfull with that 🙏 2, for start, use the diesel pump, than stop the diesel pump and start. No start with diesel pump together. 3, the tyres filled with water are ok , it is for better stabilization in terrain. I use it to for my Tatras👍🏻😉 4, the air pressure in the tyres is NO 900kpa, it is front only 450-500kpa and back 550-600kpa. And you can go down in mud to 70-100kpa,no problem, it is taktik tyres, so is fine👍🏻😉

    Hi Hank. The jack under the C part hold steel suspension, be carfull with that. The big C part fall out , and the jack crack. Always, if you lift the axle, putt something under the brake drum. Than go under the Tatra 🙏🙏🙏 Safety first🙏👍🏻 Tatra is in wheel change really dangerous. So putt the blue think away, and putt something under the brake drum, it is rhe safetys wait to hold axle up without tyre🙏👍🏻

    Hi Hank, if you drive on snow or mud Road, lock the middle differencial lock. It is the lock betwem the axles, not in axles, soooo you can stering to the left or right with no problems, and this middle lock hold you on snow road. With this lock you can drive full speed, is no problem. You can yous it be the ride, only push the clutch, than the button for midlle lock , and drive again, you dont need to stop the Tatra😉👍🏻
