I find your interaction with your friends to be both heart warming and uplifting. You freely give your time to help a good "mate" and we are the better for getting to watch you guys work hard with a giving kind heart. Thank you for championing values that show the best of each of us. In a dog eat dog step on whoever to get where one wants to go society this is genuinely refreshing and inspiring.
You probably already know this by now, but that backhoe would have been pretty powerful when powered from the whole original tractor. The pump that's on there now is just too small. Look at the size of those rams. They need a lot of oil flow. Great vid guys.
This concept of using and old fixed machine to fix and run another old machine was very interesting and satisfying to watch, thank you for making these videos
These PTO's (Power Take Off )can be used to run a number of machines that need a drive - pumps as here, generators for a field welding machine, mills, lathes, water well drilling machine etc. They are very useful on the farm or outback. Truck gearboxes also have a PTO outlet.
If it's old iron & worked at one stage in it's life, Marty T & friend will have it fixed & running & doing better than before, love your videos...you don't talk a lot, you just do the repair, not like some of the others who click bait, then talk all the way through & don't repair anything...Yup your the best at repairing old iron.
Is it weird that the most satisfying thing was listening to the old girl chugging happily away? Also, how quickly & smoothly she fires warms the soul; there's a machine that wants to be used.
Given what most basic contractor done work costs these days, finding a old machine and fixing it to do the job plus keep afterward is very much a viable option. I and my family have been doing it for years and now boast a pretty good selection of older still very much functional machines that have collectively saved us a crazy amount of money compared to hiring the work we do with them done.
Very true use what you have are use some thing that will save you money and save it for a rainy day because when some day as the old saying goes when it rains it pours .well right now with the virus alot of people DO not have a pot to piss in and now look what's happened . 🤔 Cjd wash state 🇺🇸🇺🇸
It's great to see these machines, equipment, somebody's bread & butter saved. That was some 1s pride & joy once probably quite expensive in the day. Love seeing these old girls back running working rather then been scrapped so respect a big cheers thanks many regards from Ireland D1 Patriot. 👍🇮🇪☘Godbless 🙏PS also 1 can't beat been free here hoping to see you saving many more.✌
Wain-Roy invented the first backhoe, actually there names are Vaino Holopainen and Roy Handy, that is not a homemade backhoe. Great find guys and great video, thank you!
Its not really powerfull enough to run the hydraulic pump though. It was only just managing. The backhoe needs its own engine or a tracktor with more HP.
@@simontay4851 that was low throttle position which is sufficient enough to try it see how it works and get use to controls. That little farm all has more sac than that
I always get so excited when I see one of your videos show up on my notifications. Your advice is solid, you got the knowledge of a million mechanics, and you don't mess around. Your videos are such amazing content. Thank you for making videos for us.
I love the outback ingenuity too, hot exhaust and cold solvent. Use what you got has never been so clearly demonstrated with so little "proper" equipment. I've seen plenty of people putting parts in the oven and freezer for the same purpose, but the *exhaust as an oven* workaround was new to me for sure. I'll never look at an exhaust the same way again without seeing it's now myriad uses!
samueltooze It's called sweating a bearing , takes about 300deg f to do the job , used mainly when rebuilding transmissions and differentials , also gear boxes , also when applying heat with a torch and penetrating oil , don't burn the oil , heat it to get it to suck in , similar to bees wax. In a " proper " dignified environment, ha ha , we would what is called a bearing oven .
I as well, I honestly wouldn't have thought it would have made enough difference to matter. Don't forget samuel, they ALSO, cooled the bearing with brake cleaner to gain some shrinking effect.
Yes definitely based on an old Nuffield backend. Surely worthwhile either replacing the front half or even the whole tractor as it would leave a far handier machine. Fitting the backhoe onto a 472 Leyland with a front end loader would create a 4wd backhoe.
I'm only two minutes in and can't help myself. They are called stabilisers not feet. Had my own earthmoving company back in the day. I imported a rock breaker from France and hung it on the Back of the backhoe. I was making $80 per hour 30 years ago but the breakdowns were terribly expensive. All the best with this one.
That is a spindly looking tractor you're using to drive it! It kinda looks like a giant version of a kid's sandbox digger. Must be a bit of a pain in the arse to position on site, but for a farmer who can't justify the cost of a full excavator it would do for digging pits and ditches for drainage. Nice job getting it operating properly again, as usual ;) Thanks for the video guys.
Pretty nice rig for the price of a new bearing! I'm surprised it still had hydraulic fluid in it, nevermind the fact that it actually worked and didn't leak. Even if you decided to scrap it out, the cylinders are probably worth a couple hundred bucks apiece!😁👍
My instructor when I did auto tech 3 years ago, a man of 30+ years experience on wrenches, told us constantly to never use our hands as a hammer! He said he always regretted not taking up a lot of safety practices sooner out of pride or whatever the silly reason mechanics don't like safety is. Hahaha.
Wain-Roy was the company formed by the pair that invented the backhoe. That looks like the first generation production models they were making from the late 40s to 53. I've got a second generation model from 57 that was made under license by Sherman. Sometimes it's easier to find information on the Sherman Power Diggers, but they're essentially the same.
Thanks for the information. I love watching the videos but all too often with vintage and antique equipment information on them is scarce and it always leaves my mind-belly hungry.
Yeah, Ferguson, Sherman, Shawnee, Sesam etc, all work essentially on the same drawings, how much of that got kicked back in royalties... we'll never know!
Farmalls are pretty cool. My mate out at Takahiwai has a Farmall A in his lounge. As you do... It's...errr...a project? She's pretty rough, but it's mostly all there.
It looks like the female bit has broken at some stage and has been welded incorrectly. Being square they should align no matter which way they are put together.
Great Video Marty T, I remember a set up in the 1960's run by a guy with the last name of Gibson, who ran something similar behind an early Fordson, in North Canterbury! while the idea of these are great, they are very labour intensive compared to the modern excavator! and especially if they have tracks! Thanks for sharing
You should spray all rusted nuts and bolts you intend on removing with Liquid Wrench or penetrating oil and let it sit for a few min. Makes the job much easier. Some oil on that chain would be a good idea also.
Fun video. Looking forward to seeing you do the proper maintenance a machine like that deserves, and putting it to work with your other resurrected tools.
That Farmall reminds me of one of the Golden Books my dear Mom read to me as a child. It was about a scorned little locomotive, called "The Little Engine That Could".
Thats an interesting use of a backhoe attachment and a shagged out old Nuffield tractor L.O.L. For free and his new bearings/time he's not loosing anything if he can't afford a proper digger and can use this or even if he cashed it for scrap. Somebody needs to tell him go easy on that grease gun though. Too much grease can be the same as not enough on bearings. I worked on a combine header a few weeks ago they used a battery gun for maintenance, every bearing on it had the seals blown out the sides with to much grease. My bet is every bearing on the other machines there was the same. Thanks for sharing the adventure" cringe moments and all" with the hitch set up, man he was lucky that never came off. see you for the next adventure, take care guys.
It looks a few piece of metal needs replaced but for the most part it move Great.... Large and wide bucket for working fast and moving a lot of dirt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The tractor got great work out this day!!!!!!!!! Now to put all your toys to work making money!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I like it that you always grease and lube, before trying anything else. For a few years, I ran a workshop for an earthmoving outfit. The machine operators were paid a weekly allowance for greasing. It was offered as an incentive. It worked but only on the few. The wear on backhoe bearings was unacceptable in a number of instances. A number of skilled operators lost their jobs for failing to care for their machines.
@@JohnSmith-yv6eq It's an idea, but one that wouldn't really work. Fine, if all the machines are working the same site, but not a lot of good if they are different sites, a long way apart. Personally, I would expect that a skilled operator would care for his machine, and not need telling to do what is essential maintenance.
That is so cool! I’ve never seen a trailed, PTO powered backhoe. On a tractor frame none the less. It looks like it’s in decent condition also. You should definitely swap the controls out for dual, 2 axis levers. The 4 levers for the boom just seem like a hassle.
we have an old 9n ford tractor with a homemade backhoe on it old and slow leaks a lot but it beats a shovel all to heck. needed a punch to roll the bearing out also when you had to get the breaker bar to loosen the bolt a mechanic taught me to "double up" on the end wrench, hook the socket end of a 2nd wrench over the open end of the 1st wrench to increase the leverage
@@oukie666 I was told once If you got to check any lower than the prominent Adams apple, it's sure is a convincing wrong one and a nasty surprise L.O.L
There's something indescribable about Marty talking through the issues. This chap added some spice to the soup, but the soup was already perfect. Sometimes spice isn't necessary, and in this case, it nearly made it inedible. Like going to a favorite restaurant for a favorite dish, and they changed ownership and recipes without notice.
The backhoe swing frame was invented in 1947 by Vaino (pronounced Waino) J. Holopainen and Roy E. Handy Jr. The swing frame "allowed the hydraulic digging arm to swing to the side to dump the bucket."[6] In April 1948 Wain-Roy Corporation sold the very first hydraulic backhoe, mounted to a Ford Model 8N tractor, to the Connecticut Light and Power Company for $705.[6]
A popular Diesel engine (easy to get parts for) would be an excellent powerplant, new bearings are in order, possibly hydraulic fluid too. Cheers from the USA!
Maybe he could find an old generator cheaply that has burnt windings and doesn't generate power but that still has a good engine, like what mustie1 has found on the side of the road before in previous videos. Clean the carboretor, new oil, new fuel and get it running.

You can repair dings and scratches in rams using metal epoxy. You have to clean the hole really, really well, and lightly put scratches to anchor the glue, but other than that, it does work. I fixed my Cat mini excavator this way, i was not going to pay the sum they ask or have it repaired at a pro shop, the machine is entirely too old and beaten, my scratch was 10 cm long, coming in nearly diagonally to the mid stroke of the main ram. Hasn't gone bad or fallen off yet, in 3 years. I used Byson, tho..i don't know that they make that glue anymore, it's the one that had the absurd advertisement that you could glue a cracked bike frame with it. :)) I mean, for an old ram, if it's leaking past or damaging seals...it's better than having it changed or undersized. Just my 2 cents.
A simple way to go is to give it its own power instead of a pto. Mount a small engine in its place to run the pump and then tow with whatever, truck, tractor, or something that can move it like a dump truck. That way you can haul what you dig. .... Better would be to pull bucket and put tongs on it and load logs with it on a truck you pull it with. Just make sure it is braced good

For a moment there i thought they were going to press the bearing into the housing by putting it under the wheel of the truck and backing up onto it..
Looks like an old tractor, with everything stripped and a pto hydraulic pump added. I like it

I used Byson, tho..i don't know that they make that glue anymore, it's the one that had the absurd advertisement that you could glue a cracked bike frame with it. :))
I mean, for an old ram, if it's leaking past or damaging seals...it's better than having it changed or undersized. Just my 2 cents.
Yes I had heard its possible to use epoxy but never tried it myself, good to know it works
"How do you get down?" Carefully, very carefully.
first you got an Excavator for almost nothing IIRC. then you got a tractor, now you have a backhoe attachment/trailer. NICE. rare find too.
Great work guys. Have fun
A simple way to go is to give it its own power instead of a pto. Mount a small engine in its place to run the pump and then tow with whatever, truck, tractor, or something that can move it like a dump truck. That way you can haul what you dig. .... Better would be to pull bucket and put tongs on it and load logs with it on a truck you pull it with. Just make sure it is braced good
