  • In this video I repair the damage done to a Toyota forklift axle from a broken king pin bearing.
    The bearing had disintegrated and destroyed the bearing hole.
    I clean out the hole, build up with weld and reamer the hole back out to size.
    The stud shaft was also damaged so that also had the re weld and reamer treatment. And the surface milled back flat again.
    Hope you enjoyed the video.
    Thanks for watching!

    Your exactly right about wearing eye protection and ear plugs working in such a dangerous environment as a engineering workshop, I have complained to certain people on you tube about using grinders without wearing eye protection, Also using pto equipment with the necessary guards on chains and sprockets, Great videos as usual.🇮🇪🇬🇧

    All jobs are comparatively simple & easy with a workshop full of tools and the correct jigs & fixtures, it's when you have got to improvise and make do with what you have got the sorts out the men from the boys. Well done.

    A fly cutter would get in to face that bottom hole. You're asking a lot of that reamer. Haven't you got an undersize drill that you can run through first. You can still use the reamer to centre on it first.
    Great vids by the way. I've watched a few now and I like your inventiveness.

  • @paddynfs6452
    @paddynfs6452 Рік тому +1

    Suggest getting a bushing chisel (may have one in an air chisel kit) It has a curved end that peels the bush out, sometimes leaves a light groove afterwards which is easily dressed with emery mop wheel.
    Really great channel and your ingenuity in using the equipment you to do the job. So are you self thought or dad taught? Guessing it’s a farming background either way 🤷🏻‍♂️ Enjoying the content keep it up fella 👍

    • @snowballengineering
      @snowballengineering  Рік тому +1

      I do have a bushing chisel I made but it was the outer race of the needle bearing I was removing so it was very hard. My dad taught me about engines and mechanical stuff from a young age, then I did 7.5 years working for an agricultural engineers doing similar work to I’m doing now along with fabricating buckets and handling equipment for loaders. Thanks! Glad you’re enjoying watching.
