Nate Isa great guy to have around. Prepped the Hud so Andy didn't have to work hard. Absolute blessing to have all your children involved in the business 🙏 Thank you Andy for another great video.
HOT OFF THE PRESS FROM THE NAVARINO NEWS: Local farm employee goes after boss with a sledge hammer. While removing a hub the farm hand was ridiculed by his employer until he attacked him with the sledge hammer he was using. The good news is by the time the attack was perpetrated his arms were so weak no one was injured.
Nate gently "tapping" on that axle with a hammer reminds me of the old days in the shop. Some newbie would be delicately tapping away on something when an old timer would yell out across the shop for all to hear: "HIT IT WITH YOUR PURSE!"
Hi Andy when i worked at versatile we use to cut the heads off 2 long bolts thread them into the housing section then we had a guide for installing the trumpets made that job very easy👍 17:40
Haha, sometimes them young boys just ain't worth a damn. Ol' Nate was wailing on that hub, you stepped in at just the right time, perfect. Nice to see the crew working together. Best regards from Indiana.
My wife learned to drive in Upstate NY. Y'all are definitely hard on brakes there! She doesn't get 20k miles on a set in her car, and y'all don't get that many on the tractors! 😂 Great video, Andy!
Love it Nat is such a great guy. He is as strong as on ox. Shara filming her brother is so funny. Great job. Great bunch of folks you have. Love that you make that difficult work look so easy. Awesome 😊😊😊
Andy - the jacks are tilting the tractor to the left - the installing axle assembly needs to match that angle instead of being level by shortening the strap at the outer end of the axle
Heck yeah, it's one thing to be able to get a good swing, but a whole different deal to swing the heck out of it and be accurate. Nate did a great job on that one.
Enjoy watching your videos. I would like to commend you Andy, on your abilities to tear down, repair, and reassemble such a large, complicated piece of farm equipment and doing over multiple days. And yet no left over parts. I myself would have a bucket full of remaining parts witth little idea where they go. I do have one question; is there a reason we never get to see any of the milking parlor work. Your family is operating a large dairy operation.
I hope Sarah is your boss you get it done and everything is working for her as she like is and she is happy that her is fixed and no more problems with it I want to see her smile 😃 for she go out and play
Andy I enjoy watching your videos and always impressed with your knowledge and mechanical skills and am curious as to were you acquired it all. Did you get it from OJT and years of experience or what?
It’s amazes me that you’re daughter Sarah and Alex want to help with farming most girls that age usually are chasing boys or hanging with friends that’s how it was with my sisters they were always hanging with their friends instead of helping on the farm my brother did most of the farming stuff
It's nice you guys all chill and have a laugh once in a while. Your a great boss and leader Andy. You make the hard work fun. TAKE CARE AND STAY WARM GUYS AND GALS !!!!
NATE 🤦♂️🤦♂️😂😂😂 cranked up,words of wisdom SHUT UP !!! THANKS SARAH need a little more commentary though will you got the camera. A little jabbering like sister Charlotte 😂😂😂. Thanks Nate for putting up with HOLLYWOOD HOURIAGAIN OPPPPS. THANKS EVERYONE!
I cut off some long bolts to make studs to line up the axle housings on the John Deere 944 loader. We didn't need to do the brakes but they kept breaking the bolts on the housings when they tried to slide thing off a trailer when they couldn't lift it completely. I'll never know what they thought was going to happen when it came off the trailer. The loader would tip forward lifting the rear wheels off the ground. Then the load would slide off the forks and the rear would slam down on the solid rubber tires, snapping the bolts.
You should take a wire wheel to the axle and shine it up to make the dual hubs slide on and off better so you don’t have to worry about damaging the end of the axle tube with the sledgehammer like that
I wouldn't make fun of a guy who can swing a 16 lb. ? Sledge like that. Holy cow I'm surprised the tractor didn't come off the jack stands. He'd be deadly at baseball
Beware taking the micky when a sledgehammer is involved I can remember a couple of guys more akin to yours and Nate's build while though being 19 I was more Andrew's size they had been pounding on the main arm pins of a skidsteer they were breaking teased me saying I hit it like a pansy they first hit second it launched out of it and chipped the concrete wall of the toilet block. The other side went and ricocheted if the drill press or lathe as the handle snapped. They were told to not hit like a pansy but in less polite terms by a number of the others
Nate is the strong silent type, good guy to have on born. Were those brakes done last year? its a pity JD hasn't a way of measuring the discs wear externally rather then metal to metal.
This seem a regular job that would be worth making a frame to hold the axle outers on the forks and using 3 x 9" lengths of all stud, as you call it , would make re aligning much easier.
This might be a dumb question, and I honestly don’t have a clue that’s why I’m asking! Does the trans/final drive/hydraulics use same oil? I mean is it an all in one reservoir ? If it is, I assume it’s a lot of oil? Can you reuse the oil or do you change it?
Andy, is there a way that you could take a couple hardened bolts that are longer than the original mounting bolts for the axle housing and cut off the head of the bolts and use them as guide pins to help with the install of the axle? Also make a slut on the end of the pin for a screwdriver to remove the pin after the axle in attached.
Im assuming thats an IVT tractor. Seems like those kinda freewheel and require the brakes more from what you've said. It would be cool to build a lifting fixture like my 5th wheel thing I made with some square tubing for fork pockets, and a piece of DOM round tubing welded to that that the axle can slide into. Then you could drill a couple three-quarter holes in the tube, weld nuts over the holes and use a draw bolt to tighten down on the axle to keep it from rotating and sliding around. You know...in your spare time..I'm big on forklift attachments haha
I wonder if any of the people that complain about the cost of a gallon of milk understand the work hours and cost involved to produce the milk let alone the cost to process bottle and ship to the shelf in a store. How many days in the last year did you or Jared put in no work hours on the farm? I imagine it is damn few full days off.
Boy! Andy. Messing with a man as big as Nathan with he has a Hammer in his hand? That's surely not on my bucket list. No sir. Alex Sarah Charlie and Andrew all have a Hellva body guard backing them tho. Wonder why you didn't ask Nate for his thoughts of the day after that Andy?
You ever think about getting some portable lighting maybe that would sit on a stand I'm not talking about like movie set lighting just lighting you could plug into like a wall or maybe a portable generator increase the light in the work area. I've seen some chronic UA-camrs use these use Milwaukee 20 volt portable lighting seems Mickey Mouse to me but I think anything would help like the area is very dark lots of very dark areas. No no offense or anything of course just putting it out there.
Nate Isa great guy to have around.
Prepped the Hud so Andy didn't have to work hard.

Thank you Andy for another great video.
Love it when Nate gets involved. Nate is starting to look like Yukon Cornelius.
I’ll have to look that up

Great job helping your Dad Sarah
Great job fixing the tractor guys and Sarah
Great video Andy, good to see all of the family involved. You certainly try your best to wind Nate up.
I always love the way Nate doesn't tolerate your fuckery. :)

Great video Andy and crew

Andy, I received my zipped up hood today. Thank you!! Keep the knowledge coming, catchya at the next one. Stay safe!

Love it when a plan comes together Thanks Andy

Great video Andy, always good when you can work and have some fun too.
A BFH always works better another good one Andy Thanks for the video's 🚜🐄🌽🇺🇸👍
That was pretty funny Nate beat the hell out of it & Andy goes over and “Tink “ it popped off .. good stuff indeed 😂
Andy - the jacks are tilting the tractor to the left - the installing axle assembly needs to match that angle instead of being level by shortening the strap at the outer end of the axle
Nate could be a bell ringer at the fair with his swings on the sledgehammer.
I sure do like that hoodie Andy is wearing.
Andy ur a good guy and a good boss keep that nate guy around and close he’s a keeper
Great job Andy and crew.
That dude's precision with a sledge hammer is impressive
Heck yeah, it's one thing to be able to get a good swing, but a whole different deal to swing the heck out of it and be accurate. Nate did a great job on that one.
Nate is the John Henry of brake jobs. 👍
All kinds of good help.
Nate, Andrew. Sarah. Others.
Love you’re videos curious why you didn’t do axle end bearings while you have them that far?
Didn’t have enough hours on it yet
Enjoy watching your videos.
I would like to commend you Andy, on your abilities to tear down, repair, and reassemble such a large, complicated piece of farm equipment and doing over multiple days. And yet no left over parts. I myself would have a bucket full of remaining parts witth little idea where they go.

TOTALLY ENJOYED WATCHING THE VIDEO AÑDY😊
Andy I enjoy watching your videos and always impressed with your knowledge and mechanical skills and am curious as to were you acquired it all. Did you get it from OJT and years of experience or what?
All self taught
Such an elegant way to swing a hammer Andy
Silly part of it is it worked
Nate…. Star of the show.
Great video team
Great job Andy great team work 👍🚜
Fun times! ❤😂Nathan got it!!!
It’s amazes me that you’re daughter Sarah and Alex want to help with farming most girls that age usually are chasing boys or hanging with friends that’s how it was with my sisters they were always hanging with their friends instead of helping on the farm my brother did most of the farming stuff
Im 60 now and watching Nate swing that hammer, Dam i wish i had his energy.
I believe you owe Nate a Cold Brew!
Married back up good one Andy, you must be the tractors preacher praise God
Nice to see Nate and Andrew
U and Nate had me laughing 😂
Andy? Larry Love always told me to get a bigger hammer! Always great videos! Art
Another very interesting video Thank you 😊😊😊😊
It's nice you guys all chill and have a laugh once in a while.
Your a great boss and leader
Andy. You make the hard work fun. TAKE CARE AND STAY WARM GUYS AND GALS !!!!
😅
I couldn't stop laughing when nate did your work for you lol
When I worked at Deere I wanted to build a stand the would sit on the forks that the wheel weight/hub would slide onto to make this easier
Also a stand that would slide over the axle to make lifting the off easier and safer
Nope would night work
NATE 🤦♂️🤦♂️😂😂😂 cranked up,words of wisdom SHUT UP !!! THANKS SARAH need a little more commentary though will you got the camera. A little jabbering like sister Charlotte 😂😂😂. Thanks Nate for putting up with HOLLYWOOD HOURIAGAIN OPPPPS. THANKS EVERYONE!

Is your work shed heated at all for winter / spring
Who cleans your work clothes? Do you have a separate washing machine? Great video
Andy vs Nate…. Home run derby 2024😂
I wouldn’t want to piss Nate off
Andy getting it done!
Is it not worth making some guide pins screwed into the diff casing to assist re-fitting the trumpet housing ?? (That was some look from Nat)
You should take a wire wheel to the axle and shine it up to make the dual hubs slide on and off better so you don’t have to worry about damaging the end of the axle tube with the sledgehammer like that
Never taken a wheel hub off of a JD tractor have you? That is in fact how you do it. It separates the wedge that holds it on.
Thats what i thought, polish the axle and grease it, that hub was binding on the dry rust
That's the way it's done, no grease and no shine.
How do U heat the shop? Used oil system?
Yes used oil on one side and propane on the other
I wouldn't make fun of a guy who can swing a 16 lb. ? Sledge like that.
Holy cow I'm surprised the tractor didn't come off the jack stands.
He'd be deadly at baseball
Always tell everyone to hit like they live.Some sure are dumbfounded by that expression!!
Deere must be able to design brakes that do not require you to take have your tractor apart,at least got a laugh out Sarah good video.
Years ago deutz had outboard disc brakes on intermediate shaft. SO EASY to change pads. One hour per side.
Beware taking the micky when a sledgehammer is involved I can remember a couple of guys more akin to yours and Nate's build while though being 19 I was more Andrew's size they had been pounding on the main arm pins of a skidsteer they were breaking teased me saying I hit it like a pansy they first hit second it launched out of it and chipped the concrete wall of the toilet block.

Hey Nate. When you’re sick of Andy’s snipping tell him to do it himself lol.
Go team sarah!!! Go team!!
Nate is the strong silent type, good guy to have on born. Were those brakes done last year? its a pity JD hasn't a way of measuring the discs wear externally rather then metal to metal.
No they were original
This seem a regular job that would be worth making a frame to hold the axle outers on the forks and using 3 x 9" lengths of all stud, as you call it , would make re aligning much easier.
What kind of torque pattern was that on the axle.
Fair comment : )
Andy hammering song Hell Bells, Nate's hammering song Wrecking ball by Miley Cyrus lol.
This might be a dumb question, and I honestly don’t have a clue that’s why I’m asking!
Does the trans/final drive/hydraulics use same oil? I mean is it an all in one reservoir ?
If it is, I assume it’s a lot of oil? Can you reuse the oil or do you change it?
Yes all the same…oil is no good, we’ll burn it. Hold 44 gallons
Andy, is there a way that you could take a couple hardened bolts that are longer than the original mounting bolts for the axle housing and cut off the head of the bolts and use them as guide pins to help with the install of the axle? Also make a slut on the end of the pin for a screwdriver to remove the pin after the axle in attached.
That’s exactly how I do it
Nathan did that one!
I wonder how much they'd charge at the JD dealership to do that?
Does Nate ever smile ? He always has a mad look .
Nice.
Im assuming thats an IVT tractor. Seems like those kinda freewheel and require the brakes more from what you've said.

You know...in your spare time..I'm big on forklift attachments haha
I don't know maybe it's not as easy as I think because you still have to rotate everything to get the gears to mesh right
Yeah IVT…I ended up trying everybody’s invention and it don’t work…. That will be in next video
How in the world do you get your jeans and shirts so clean?
I have a good washing machine,I run it in the deep clean cycle and I only loaded it about 3/4 full
Harbor freight snap ring plyers
Tell Andrew that his hands are washable 😆 🤣 😂
How due you reset the caliper for these brakes compared to car brakes.
It will find its way as soon as you press the pedal
I always used long guide studs
I wonder if any of the people that complain about the cost of a gallon of milk understand the work hours and cost involved to produce the milk let alone the cost to process bottle and ship to the shelf in a store.
How many days in the last year did you or Jared put in no work hours on the farm? I imagine it is damn few full days off.
Why don't you use guide studs to help align the trumpet?
They don’t work
@FarmingFixingFabricating ok I always use them but that is on massys
@@andrewplumb6189 I tried it, you’ll see in next video.
Looks like that tractor is going to cost you some more money shortly when it needs all 8 tires.
Boy! Andy. Messing with a man as big as Nathan with he has a Hammer in his hand? That's surely not on my bucket list. No sir. Alex Sarah Charlie and Andrew all have a Hellva body guard backing them tho. Wonder why you didn't ask Nate for his thoughts of the day after that Andy?
Those two filters showing your hydrolic filters.
You ever think about getting some portable lighting maybe that would sit on a stand I'm not talking about like movie set lighting just lighting you could plug into like a wall or maybe a portable generator increase the light in the work area. I've seen some chronic UA-camrs use these use Milwaukee 20 volt portable lighting seems Mickey Mouse to me but I think anything would help like the area is very dark lots of very dark areas. No no offense or anything of course just putting it out there.
Though of the day Nate?
🇨🇦
👍
Bet nobody has to rock you to sleep at night
Must be road travel wearing and heating brakes up unless they're sticking.
Warning. This is not a how to video. Lol
Nate needs to use a bigger hammer :D
If at first it doesn’t work then use a bigger hammer lol.
Andy,How much has the parts went up in cost since the last brake job on the same tractor.What's it been 14 months since last time?
👍
