I use this technique. It was awesome.
Why did I always struggle with a chain 🤦♂️ Nice tip! Just the tip! 🤣🤷♂️✌
Thinking outside the box is paramount, to be a good mechanic. 💪
Sweet I’m gonna try that next time
Dam all the years of using a chain come along lol
Love watching cam, he's hilarious 😂
Awesome I love you it guys. Thank you for another sweet short video. Can’t wait for the next one to release.
I’ve joined tracks maybe a dozen times and haven’t found a way I’m super happy with yet. Will definitely be giving this a try next time. Thanks for putting out such great content. We appreciate you buddy!
Won't find a better way
Awesome trick Cam. Going to have to remember that if I encounter that situation. Mostly I do rubber tracks on Bobcats.
That is pretty slick! Thanks for sharing im going to give that a try.
We chain jacks to suck em up, cut the eyes and smash out the pins and weld em back up lol
Awesome 👌 Thanks for sharing!
Nice trick Cam have to use it sometimes, I use a chain to pull it up then chain come alongs to line it up
I like that. Great video demonstration thanks.
You're welcome
Keep the good work 👍💯
Did you use crane and bar method to get the pin out Its called work smarter not harder nice job Cam Like the way he said we
Good work
Very cool.
i had a master that used to tell me if works for you - good.
Cool to see stuff like that, I mostly work on farm equipment, excavators look like a whole different experience. Is there a Title difference between HD and Agricultural techs in NA? In Germany both fields are the same Job, so you gotta learn everything from every form of farm equipment to all types of construction equipment +everything to do with Diesel engines to pass you theorethical and practical tech exam.
Wonderful
Cam, way to hack it…. Be safe.
I don’t think I’ve witnessed that method before. I usually just use a couple track chains and a come along.
I used to use track chains till I found this method. Way easier I found and less rigging.
@@BluTechEquipment I'll be trying it out next time I've tracks to split, that's for sure. My crane is a bit wimpy though, but we shall see.
Do you guys do it differently? How do you join track links?
Lots of swearing, Lots of sweat, plenty of swings from a sledge and jobs done. cant forget the help from another excavator aswell!
We always used a chain come-along... Bring the bottom end close and then using cribbing, hold the track in place, release the come-along and re-hook to the outsides of the track using a pair of short double hooked chair bridles... As long as the top end and the bottom end will meet on the idler, it's pretty much as you demonstrated in this video...
The safe way which is everyone goes home with all hands and fingers Bodge does not save time
how many track link pin in one excavator?
I think you mean a King link pin? Normally one of these per track.
