@@RJ1999x I hope the harvest is going well and your yield is well up. Some issues here in Aus with it being too wet for lots of farmers to get on their country. Between Ukraine, the wet here and the dry in the US its turning into a bit of a perfect storm for very expensive wheat or any cereal crop for that matter. 👍🏼👍🏼🇦🇺
Amazing what you can get done with that old machine. It’s good you feel well enough to get out and fix up this crossing. Of course we know heavy rains are going to wash that crossing out again and again. It’s good too your wife is able to do the video and narrative. And ding it very well.👍👍
If you have land your always got something to fix up or do something on and I guess my creek crossings are one of those things. Gives the Allis something to do and opportunity to take video. So win win 🤔😂😂
@@mountainblockmoments yes sir, I’ve got about 2 miles of old old fencing of cedar posts that have seen better days. Way too expensive to have a new one put in so I just keep fixing it with mesquite posts cut here. The neighbors bull doesn’t help either. Like a 2000 pound Angus monster. When he get “ lonely “ that fence is nothing. 👍👍
@@timbow50 yes I’ve owned an Angus bull myself, thankfully all our neighbours are commercial stock breeders as well as they got quite a few “free” services from our bull. I got rid of him when we bought the mountain block as he wasn’t suited to it and I couldn’t give him the supervision he required.
That old AC what a machine! When you shut it down I thought I haven’t seen a flap on the exhaust I hope you have a cap! You sure did! Great stuff Rob! 🍺🍺
Kell “give it a little shake”and Rob still dribbled on the seat🤭. Poor Allis😍 being mistreated 🥺 At the end I thought you were going to do a triple back flip in the piked position🩲🤸🏽♀️ 👍🏴
Looks like the perfect place to install a bridge, or does the creak flood out during the year. Would make for a good couple of videos. Not that you don’t have enough on your plate now. Anyway love to hear the Allis purr 👍🎅🏻
I might end up putting a causeway in that crossing. As a lot of water comes down out of the mountains, carrying a lot of debris that would take out any bridge that I could build.
Video is a couple weeks old we have had considerable rain since then. We didn’t get the crazy falls that have been to the south of us but good rain for this time of year.
I enjoyed watching the track take place , but i think you guys should put a few 30 inch pipes threw the creek bed to prevent extra damage to the track , plastic poly i,d say , then you can carry them to the farm
Yep that’s what I want to do eventually but I will still need to stabilise the road as that much water comes down there at times it would wash over the road still.
Thanks Rob... Diesel here yesterday $2.54 p/l western NSW is rediculas good job on turning the pigs ear into a silk purse .. come up a treat.. mate you wanna be careful .. someone from QLD RTA sees this vid they will have you out upgrading the Bruce hwy 😂😂😂
Hahah no chance of getting a job on the Bruce they don’t seem to want to get that job done. Might be able to get a job putting out more speed limit signs or road hazard signs. Plenty of that happening. I go for another run down the Bruce tomorrow to lay in a machine for half an hour to scan my liver. 9 hrs of driving do 30 minutes of medical stuff😔
Friend of mine had 3 all is Chalmers scrapers that had been thru a lot. When he got them the oil looked very beat. They changed oil and one by one blew them up on the first job. He paid about scrap price for them and they finished the job so he was happy. I was disappointed. That they got ruined. They were very cool.
So many good old machines get turned into scrap 🤷 I guess that’s just the way it is people can’t justify spending the money on them to keep them going or get repairs done. I’ve got an inter tractor that I’m not sure what to do with. I can’t justify spending money on it at the moment🤷🤷
@@mountainblockmoments that guy with the scrapers started on one engine but stopped. He said he couldn't get the parts. When he changed oil I recommended runing them for a while with no load and then changing oil again but they didn't do that. I can't be sure that would have helped but the oil that came in them was unbelievable. That they ran and got the entire job done also unbelievable but their demise got me. The engines were their only failure. Every thing else functioned very well.
@@mountainblockmoments also on your inter tractor try to lube down the cylinders and whatever you can so you can work on it later. And on parts don't give up too early. I think the scraper guy may have done that. I mess with old jeeps and have found a guy that makes trans and transfer case parts that are extinct. And his parts are as good or better than factory. He is a genius. Finding him was the hard part.
@@johndoe43 we have a lot of old Allis Chalmers dozers out in the west of Queensland and a pretty good parts guy down in Tamworth New South Wales so still able to source bits for them, biggest problem is getting good guys to work on them. I'm not much of a mechanic but still mange to get most stuff done. what would make a big difference for me is a big shed and a bit more time, hopefully one day I will get there.👍🏼👍🏼🇦🇺
@@johndoe43 same as the Allis its more about time and money and having a place to pull a machine apart without the weather getting into it and wrecking it.👍🏼👍🏼🇦🇺
The Allis. The Screaming Banshee of the mountains. Bloody marvelous and mighty machine. She sounds so much better than the screamin' Jimmy . How could I post something to you Rob?
Run them dry it suck sediment through and destroys seals. Pump doesn't pressurize anymore. Did it to my old skidsteer. Had an extra pump on the shelf to swap in thankfully. Priced a 4 cylinder isuzu ip rebuild, $1800 🇺🇸
Hey boss, have you got the service manual for this old sob? Just thought i'd comment that the finals on these get a bit of slack in them, and to tighten them up you pull the outer cover and remove some shims or something similar its been a while. You probably already know but if not might be wise to check them out, its free to tighten them up to spec and very much not free when a final shits itself 😆
Thats why these tractors have a bad rep for finals, some people never adjust them and they fail. If you adjust them periodically they last just as long as a caterpillars.
Man what a great machine. The climate control folks will have a hard time making a electric Allis like that one! Thanks for the ride along, and as always all the best and God bless everyone.
I have used the rippers mainly when I was dam building with the Allis. I didn’t get video of that the phone I had at the time was playing up. I have a couple of paddocks I would like to rip some key line drainage into at some stage.
I watch a lot of dozer videos but none of them fascinate me nearly as much as watching That machine. Thanks for the video.
Thanks mate, that means a lot, hopefully others feel the same way and I can keep making videos of the Allis. 👍🏼👍🏼
Probably the coolest dozer on youtube!
Wow that’s a hell of a statement😳 I’m sure there is plenty of dozers nearly as cool as the Allis 😂😂👍🏼
@@mountainblockmoments nothing is as cool as an Allis Chalmers
@@RJ1999x been a while RJ, glad to see your still there👍🏼👍🏼🇦🇺
@@mountainblockmoments Been busy harvesting crops, glad to see everything is well with you,and the mighty Allis is still mean as ever👍

Beautiful old machine, it's a force of nature. "King of the world," lol. All the best; and great camera work there, Kell.

Flaps tend to get broken off, rough operators😉😂.
Old dozer great super duty

No chance of me jumping off the tree spear, does give me an idea next time I’m near a dam though🤔😉😂
Can it be possible for us all, just for one day, to be as happy and carefree as that red dog ? Ah its surely a dog's life !
Wouldn’t it be nice. Lucy leads a fairly privileged life but she is a pretty amazing working dog so she deserves most of it.
Gratuitous advice Kell? Give it a little shake.... That one cracked me up!
I notice your blade has a scraper push plate welded in the middle. We did the same to a cat d6 to push the AC scrapers.
Love watching the Allis work. Look forward to seeing how the road turns out.
Hi Rob, great video mate 👍 take care.
Cheers mate thanks👍🏼👍🏼

Another great video Rob👍

G'day guys 20 litres just a lick n a promise for Alice
Good to see you up and going mate 👍
always "going"it just the speed that varies😉😂😂
Good to see the old allis working and you doing a bit I see it has dried out some at yours still to wet at mine cheers mate
Video is a couple weeks old we have had considerable rain since then. We didn’t get the crazy falls that have been to the south of us but good rain for this time of year.
Whoa Allis is a big girl, thirsty too. Looking forward to seeing her work again. Good job mate. :o)
No doubt I will be doing more with the Allis👍🏼👍🏼🇦🇺
It started back up a lot easier than i thought it would.
Yeah I thought the same
@@mountainblockmoments Well it made quick work of that incline, nice corners on the cutting edge sure help.

She’s a diamond in the rough..love the sound of that engine.

Post to PO Box 3212 Bundaberg 4670 Qld.
Thanks Chris I’m not sure I could keep the fuel up to a GM🤷
Miraculous you haven't torn that injection pump up running it dry. Thats a $2k mistake you only do once. Good to see old iron still shaking.
I believe the injector pump on the Allis is actually lubricated with oil not from the diesel passing through it

Would definitely like to see ripper in action
@@Jc-pj1ex yep not something I do intentionally. The Allis has a pretty good filter system for the fuel so that probably helps

Not long at all, you might get an hour out of 20 litres
Salut
Are you in Australia or NZ?
Australia mate👍🏼👍🏼🇦🇺 Mount Perry QLD
My dad had old Allis with a gas engine in it i bealive a size smaller than yours
Hiya Rob and Kell
Heya William 👍🏼👍🏼🇦🇺
Man what a great machine. The climate control folks will have a hard time making a electric Allis like that one! Thanks for the ride along, and as always all the best and God bless everyone.
Thanks John, yep they are going to struggle to create a machine that is as simple and straightforward as the Allis.
Do you end up using the ripper much, Rob? I don't remember seeing it deployed in any videos.....
