D9G track frame removal so I can replace all the rollers and fix the track guards, oh and I lift the whole front end of the D9 with the galion crane www.ebay.com/itm/173954575002
Jeff, you should try to get your hands on some house mover cribbing. They're square and easily stackable for shoring up that heavy equipment . Those old round tree stumps scare the crap out of me !!
Jeff been watching your videos for 3 years now Im not a mechanic or operator but I have learned a lot from your videos. Keep up the good work you're much better to watch than America's Got Talent or The Voice
Thank You for the video that ties the UA-cam shorts together. Crawler disassembly school is very interesting. Best Wishes to everyone at Anderson Construction Jeff.
I love it how dramatic you are when you realise the bolts have broke off the front roller carrier but we all know it’s an easy adjustment to put a chain around the whole track frame lol
Man I had to sit down just watching you graft! On 55t long reach on a barge river Thames,no quick hitch,changing bucket n breakers enough for me these days,hats off to you sir
The sound of a big bore Clatterpillar pre chamber engine starting never gets old. Anyway pretty good service life from those track rollers Jeff. Gallion for the win, those damn track frames are some kind of heavy and awkward to handle. The equalizer bars and fighting the diagonal brace in those big cats are kind of a pain in the ass. Jacking up the tractor to remove the frames are always an exercise in what do I have that will work it seems! At least it has a back jack build in! I cannot say I have ever seen those bolts on the carrier roller frame all broke at the same time! I have broken them trying to remove them though. Oh well...Drill Baby Drill 😁 Man you still have the cylinder mount brackets? You are a Cat God Jeff! 😁 Cheers
Holy cow, Jeff..! When that first rail came loose and was swing back towards the crane…, yikes..! I thought there was going to be a “bit o’ difficulties” about to occur. The camera probably made it look closer that it really was. Jeff wins, Jeff wins, Jeff wins..! Great video, Thank you sir. P.S., nobody from “L Engines” (Wa., State) is ever gonna show up at the your shop, after the threat you made to give them a kiss…, how you gonna get any visitors saying stuff like that…! Hahaha!

Crooked 6 x 6s from the local lumber yard make great cribbing. We used a crib on each corner when I had the track frames off my 6. I had maybe a $100 bucks in them We cut them into 2’ pieces at the lumber yard. And the ard was glad to get the snakes sold.
That old Galion doing a good job but u mite have to bring the controls into the 21st century with remote controls lol lol awesome job thks for all your content looking forward to the next 1 and seing how big of a snipe u put on that cordless Ingersoll lol lol so u keep ya fingers in tact lol lol
Jeff , I am just almost finished putting a Blaylock Switchblade on Cat 3406 b, a few more modifications needed than I thought at the beginning of the process, but Ray is going to win
It'd sure be nice if I was closer than over 2,000 miles out here on the east coast. Then I'd at least offer to come by there and give you a little help when you need it. I know you've been in worse situations before but I can't help but think an extra hand could help you out and be safer. You may very well not want anybody getting in the way. One thing I did see that might help is when you got several bolts to pound out under something, like the 9, take a strap and wrap it around what you are working on and put it under your front handle to hold it while you are running it. That big impact holding over your head for even a couple of minutes will wear you down. It depends on how much work you got if it is worth it but I have found it to really keep the big guns from trying to kill you. Like to see you working on the 9.
I was told a story about some firefighters who were sent to help with the Rodney King riots, got sent in an old white painted fire engine with the Super WP emblem on the hood, they had to lay low and not be seen in that thing out in the streets of LA during those days
Love the D9 vids!! Hoping to see a complete repair of a track adjuster and recoil spring assembly on it cause unfortunately mines kaput!! Hopefully I can figure it out without losing an arm or face. Ha ha Lol. 😂
…awesome Jeff thanks was SERIOUSLY worried about the blocks under the Old Girl’s nose Thought some undue movement would make them pop out❓ Looks like you got it nailed…though. Good luck Hope all the bolts come undone somehow… beste bos
as for rock trucks the boys my need to try the cat 6x6 like bp and ld18 . . the wabco seen to be geting few and far inbetween. you got all that the undercarage had to give and some.
There's the Torque Test Channel which does comparison of different electric and air wrenches, their videos are worth looking at for real comparisons. For some reason they think the manufacturers lie. Who knew?
There are some organizations that love / restore the antique trucks such as ATHS - Antique Truck Historical Society. They have a classified section where you might get a few thousand for that old White fuel truck. Yep the "Wheels of Time" is the ATHS publication and in the back you will find classifieds of old trucks.
the way you describe this truck might be a cold war memorabilia, maybe it was even on site during the NERVA test - nuclear rocket propulsion programm from atomic energy commision i n conjunction with NASA - maybe borrow a geiger counter and see whats most reactive on your yard - my Case oldtimer had glow in the dark amartures in the dash for example - radium
Pakistani truck is the masters of “fixing what you got with what you have” rebuilding wheels with scrap steel from ships. Welding gears and re cutting them with angle grinder.😂 if it works it work. That and doing it all while wearing saddles.
I've worked with Pakistani & Bangladesh backstreet taught mechanics...& your heart just sinks when they turn up in sandals, kurta pyjamas & corner shop/grocery store plastic carrier bags with their tools in....Bless these lads, great for emergency breakdowns & oil changes but for the longevity of your precious & very expensive piece of construction kit.......Aye Yai Yai...😪😪😪
using both as a millwright at work, the inch and are alright. they do not hit as hard as ingersol rand titanium inch or inch and a half titaniums we have been using for years on turbines. They are handy though. Stringing large chicago fitting air hoses around gets old. The batteries go fast as well. Honestly none of the electric stuff holds up that great in a industrial environment where you are using them past their duty cycle. If you run a small air compressor you wont get the performance out of even a 1/2 that yu would with large hose and a bigger compressor though. I actually like the ingersol rand half electric better then the milwaukee gun. that is just feel of the gun. the red gun might hit harder. no idea.
Jpaydirt Hello Jeff I’m looking a buying a D8H and wondering do you know what weight it is without ripper just blade getting a lot of varied answers and if you know of any problems they may have Thank you Love the videos keep it up 👍
I don't know much, but that Galion, she's a game old girl. Btw, have worked out how her chin got a few scars lol. Please, fix that Ingersoll finger-snapper!
I have the same Earthquake impact and it's definitely the best 1 inch air impact i have but i couldn't get a couple bolts busted loose but the 1 inch Milwaukee done it no problem but i don't think the Earthquake was getting sufficient air flow. So how many ton is that Gallion rated for?
@@airbats801 no I was using a 3/4 inch hose but it was very cold at the time like around 15 degrees so I'm sure my air was freezing up. It was working but definitely wasn't flowing enough to get 100% performance. And you're right a 1 inch hose would be better but definitely a hassle. I try to use a short 25 foot hose so I'm not losing as much if I can.
Have you got enough equipment ? I heard there is a twelve step program for heavy equipment owners like you. It looks like antique Caterpillar festival.

Those aren’t blocks that’s firewood. Not smart at all using that stuff to support the front end. Use hardwood blocks to support it. You should know better.

Talk about David vs Goliath 😉 well done Jeff your hardy taking that Brute on alone. Great video as always 🤙
I love it how dramatic you are when you realise the bolts have broke off the front roller carrier but we all know it’s an easy adjustment to put a chain around the whole track frame lol
You, Sir are a Real PowerHouse! I enjoyed the Video!
When working on a huge piece of equipment alone, I’d have Mister Griffey around. If necessary, he could be like Lassie and fetch help!
Old Skippy is better you can stick a message in her pouch before you tell her to fuck off and get help!
"What is it boy? Old Jeff has fallen off the Niner again?"

Happy Easter Jeff. As I always say what a mechanic you are. I enjoy your videos very much.
Keep up the good work, Jeff! Your videos are always informative and entertaining. I look forward to seeing what you tackle next.

We keep hoping to see old Kenny back on the road some day Mr. A. His cab is still there calling Jeff for attention.
I was waiting to see this!! Lots of bull work💪
I’m still amazed that blade stays on with them few bolts when backblading 😂

Turn the chains on their side weld the ends together and you have a fair size fire pit

guessing you are running it on some 3/8 stuff. you need minimum 3/4 and a lot of cfm, 1inch will even net better results, but is a hassle.
