4x4 Forklift: Dana 70 Axles and Skid Steer Tires!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 1 жов 2024
- Another forklift followed me home, and this one is a 4x4. It's got a 4 cylinder, 4 speed, 4,000 capacity (maybe), and 4-wheel drive. I'm thinking of it as the 4xforklift...
With Dana 70 axles on both ends and some kind of Ford 4-cylinder engine, it looks like it will be a great rough terrain forklift. That's just what I was looking for in a machine to move stuff around in the mine. Pretty much everything on it is worn out or broken, but that just means lots of fun in fixing it! - Авто та транспорт
That is a TCI H4m-50, 525A or 525B, the serial number is stamped on the top of the frame next to your left foot. Almost all parts and manuals are still available from Herculift Manufacturing in Schofield Wi. The 4-speed range transmission is a borg warner T-18 and the forward/reverse transmission is a borg warner T-72 velvet shuttle shift, the tee in the brake line is part of the clutch cut-out circuit also called an inching valve. When you press the brakes, a signal is sent to the cut-out valve in the transmission (solenoid operated) allowing you to decrease speed while maintaining full throttle. I would be happy to send you a diagram with part numbers if you want.
That's some excellent info!
Rock on man!
Everyone needs to thumbs up this comment to get it to the top and be seen!
I love it when someone knows the right answer!
Legend!!!!!
Anyone else want to see the goo be power washed off?
I'm glad it's not just me!
That was the elephant in the yard for sure. How can he work thru all that gunk?
@@Frank-Thoresenhe grew up in the gunk
The goo is probably holding half of it together, lol.
I get you by sometimes by removing the goo the thing stops working all together.
Unlike most of your vehicles, you are a finely tuned mechanic and master of improvisational wrench turning comedy. Great stuff!
Geeze he makes machuyver look like a hack!!!!!
"The list got really long and I stopped paying attention" 🤣🤣🤣
I was laughing too much. That is probably the worst condition forklift I've seen that still moves...they ran that thing absolutely ragged.
Even if it's broken to heck and back, if you got it for only slightly over scrap value, AND he told you how bad it was to the point he bored you... that's (at least he sounds) an honest dude. Most sellers i deal with will resto-paint their trash and tell me a tale. It's gotten so bad that i've started saying asking if it's freshly painted so i don't have to drive over there and waste my time.
Bit like the guy who sold him the loader, who had it weighed and priced at the scrap value. Those are guys who really "know what they have"
I appreciate the cat thumpnail 🐱👍🤓
Who woulda thunk a forklift video could be so entertaining! Im actually watching it a second time. 😂😂😂 Keep up the great work!
Can we name it the Four by Fork
Always a good day when Low-Buck Garage uploads
It's amazing to me that something that moved off the trailer under it's own power is in such an... interesting... condition. This should provide tons of fun and entertainment for years to come!
Gravity is a power ...
It looks like a windham forklift . They used ford parts. The motor is a ford either 134 or a 172 tractor engine. Have fun 👍😊
😎 Great job, I like the way you explain what you are doing and with comedy involved in it also at times. Looks like you can tow stuff With that forklift also. Right? 👍
Always enjoy your unique narratives.
Possible an old Manitou 4x4 rough terrain forklift
It does look like Manitu colours!:)
Hello! Just leaning back....letting the commercial play before the movie starts. Have a great weekend everyone!
(I originally found this channel from a fork lift video...long ago. )
One of the most honest channels on youtube.
This man will NEVER scam his viewers with something like "established titles"
If you're watching channels that try and push that kind of crap you're watching the wrong channels bro
don't forget the "iM gIvInG tHiS cAr PlUs 3o,0o0 dOlLaRs AwAy" channels.... the goontards or the like
@@samholdsworth420 Mark Felton comes to mind.
The guy who told you that it needed everything from front to back and top to bottom wasn't far off. That's a daunting amount of work. But I like how you take something that's only worth it's scrap value and turn it into something that's actually useful using parts that are probably only worth their scrap value.
You should name that forklift "shake hands with danger"
I know somebody that has one of those lifts. I'll give him a shout and see what he knows about it.
You make my heart feel better. I bet the old forklift feels better also. When I was still working they had an old Hyster made in the 1940s. It sat in the back of the lay down yard for years at a time, but when needed our equipment mechanic would go fire it up and the job got done. Keep up the good work and don't get too fancy.
My sentiments too. I'd say for as little as he's going to use it, it's already better than it needs to be. Remember, you will never get back what you put in something like that, so only put in what YOU NEED it have. It's stopping good enough for working on the dirt at the new storage area. As for the lift rollers; unless they're real cheap and super easy to R&R they aren't going to wear much further for as little as he's ever going to use it. Just grease the slide. But, that's how I think. ben/ michigan
I have the same forklift, except mine is a diesel, with the special two piece windowed block. I was hopeful that yours was diesel and I could find out more about mine. 😂
Mine is a TCI 525B forklift, 6k pound capacity.
engine could be a waukesha vrd220a, call Herculift manufacturing and give them serial number to find out what you have. A lot of those waukesha diesels were swapped out with more common motors. Any 4 cylinder with a SAE 3 bell housing will swap easily
It is a VRD220A, I bought a John Deere diesel to put in, only to find it was a bit too wide, also need a custom flywheel setup as it has a 4 speed manual transmission with an automatic torque converter. I keep hoping to find a gas version and use the engine block as they are the same.
Dear LBG guy.
👍👌👏 😁😁😁 2) I'm eagerly looking forward to watch the next part about this (Manitou?) all terrain 4WD forklift. I also hope that you will make a video about your wonderful, yellow mini pickup truck.
Thanks a lot for making teaching explaining recording editing uploading and sharing.
Best regards luck and health in particular.
Your ingenuity & tips are great! I’ve never been a “mechanic”, but with over 50 classic cars I putter on I’ve had to learn a little. My forte is body and paint so I’ve gotten very good at using /adapting from my stash of extra parts for custom “enhancements”. Even win a few car shows now and then.
Love your videos!
I can't remember the name of those machines but they were very popular for many job sites. You had a huge win buying this machine! Fab rats want that floor from that old Jeepster in your storage yard I would think as theirs is rusted out. They are restoring one. They must be close to where you live
To stop a pulley:
Use Vice grips with an adjustable chain strap & a piece of an old belt…
Cut the belt to wrap around the pulley, clamp the chain around the belt.
You are the master of "repurposing"!! Wasn't going to watch this at first (I'm not really into fork trucks 🙂) but I'm glad I did, very entertaining. Hope you find out who build that thing, and who built the engine.
Bruh! Do you have the same patience behind the scenes as you do while recording? I like your style. 👍
I would swap the heavy duty wheels to the front, and put the thin truck rims on the back.
Travis was right. Almost all parts are available at Herculift. Just so you know, Schofield is right by me.
Those original White Spoke wheels look like Jackman wheels from the early 70's..
The first thing I said - aloud - was, "Oh! It runs!" 🤣
I LIKE the 'Self-Rustproofing' engine !!
Crazy people living in a damed world, loving backyards full of junk! Well done witch 920 hits in 3h may show.
Greatings from Bavaria
Another amazing video from one of the best creators out there.
That thing is sweet!! Hopefully 2nd cid coming 👍🏻
Once again one of the best videos I've seen on UA-cam. It's simply sensational. Thanks James and keep up the good work
How did I not know about this channel. I laughed probably 95% of the time. This guy has good humor.
Excellent Few needed repars done and low cost too graet running rig, motor sounds great !
I love seeing your follower count growing. You keep putting out quality videos and it's nice to see you receiving the reward for that. 2024 is the year you'll earn that Silver Play Button, you better start clearing off a spot
You are the junk yard wizard -
Just rebuilt one of these Dana 70 closed knuckle axles. Turning angle aside they're great and very, very strong. The top of the kingpin should have a bronze bushing, but if it's worn you can replace it with the tapered roller bearing from the bottom of a Dana 60 kingpin axle, which will also fit the bottom of the 70's kingpin in addition to its top. The closed knuckles should be lubed with "corn head grease". Given how many loose bolts there were, be sure to check the torque on the spindle-to-knuckle bolts. There are only five, they're a fine thread, and they're threaded into cast. You can tighten em down and use red loctite, or preferrably, drill them out and drive in studs from the inside of the knuckle. May need to spot face it though if you go with studs.
I feel like we would be great friends. Hell I've driven on the street with only one front brake. Love your since of humor and all your videos. Keep up the great work
I’ve driven months without any brakes back in the day. Down shift and cut the engine off to get stopped. Couldn’t afford brakes.
@@Robrt32 It's tricky without brake's... gotta pay attention...and drink a little less
its towable, bonus. is it a repainted wiggins?
Discovered your channel a week ago. Went through many great epicsodes.
Guys like you might be the reason us germans lost ww2.
Please keep beeing awesome.
That’s a great machine. Would love to do a total restore on that. If you ever decide to sell contact me.
Hahaha the oil change was in 1922 ..... but she's a runner so its all good. Love those quick release wheel nuts. Perfect for NASCAR wheel changing!
Always chuckle and sometimes amazed at how He usually repairs a problem that most mechanics wouldn't bother with unless buying replacement parts. Also wonder if He has ever bought something that doesn't look like an orphan? Thanks for the priceless low buck entertainment.
Yes low buck garage has uploaded, absolutely brilliant 💯👍🤟👍🙏🤟💯 the UK love's you ❤
I'd pay $5 to see this man pressure wash this thing. I do declare.
This things great, I struggled with tire plugs found if heat em with torch till they're smokin they slide in easy.
такая старая техника намного надёжнее и проще чем современный новый мусор в красивой обёртке за безумные деньги,
ты сделал хорошее дело когда вернул этого бойца служить людям!
береги руки - в перчатках неудобно работать, но здоровье нельзя купить!
I like your logic when it comes to solving problems 👌
The brake/steering link is clever. With a heavy load on the forks, the steering axle will be unloaded, so the tires slide more easily when turned. That's not a problem when skid steering the loaded axle.
As a professional forklift operator, I found this to be highly entertaining. Thank you.
Torque specs equals take it down till it smokes and then back it off a half turn 😅
5:34 😄oh wow, she's clapped out big time. :)) perfect!
15:06 that's a John Deer radiator cap.
From what little I could see ,that engine looks like my old ford tractor 641 workmaster from 1958- 34 hp 172 cdi.
Great video. Very informative. Best wishes. Your channel just continues to get better. The content is great.
It is pretty easy to shorten fan blades…
Still the best channel on you tube.
Nice work on your new forklift, my friend! I'll bet it will be the perfect piece of equipment to move heavy stuff around at your remote property. From the video on that property that you posted, I think you're going to use the forklift a lot! 😊 I am really enjoying your channel. Thanks for showing us how to do things the "low buck" way!
Hi , as always you get the job done with most of the parts you have around your shop and you are always entertaining . thanks for the entertainment ,
Great video, brightens my day thanks. I hope you're up for ideas? how about a sequential gearbox for your drag racer. I'm sure that would give you an edge through the gears?? Great to see what you come up with. PS caught up with your videos after 3 months intense watching and laughter. Thanks a bunch 🙂
Another brilliant video. What an education and inspiration.
One pedal for forward, one pedal for reverse...must have a model T transmission 😅
It always amazes me how much time people spend rigging something up when they could of spent that time fixing it if not properly just better
Looks like we may need an episode on that blue car with the chrome radiator shell.
I really like the U-Haul style paint job. I really think you should keep that way. Or paint it industrial yellow. You do you it's a great forklift either way.
Get. A. Pressure. Washer. lol
Friday Morning and a New Low Buck Garage Video......Life is GOOD!!!!
love the video's man i'm not even a mechanic kind of guy but just the way you do things and explains it makes it fun to watch :) keep it up!
Keep up the good work.
Advanced wifi water pump with Bluetooth alternator option is extremely rare for those 🤣
Who knew that performing basic maintenance that had been deferred for decades would yield such positive results?
LMAO 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣!
The engines not running and I've still got oil pressure WIN WIN 👍
Thats a freaky beast ,worn out ,leaking and patched together but still a freaky beast.Cool!
Can't wait to watch this but Will do after work. Love all things lift trucks/forklifts.
A allis chalmers maybe i can't tell without looking at it in person, wish you best of luck with finding out the manufacturer.
My experience with most outdoor/offroad fork lifts is that most of them dont have steering axle brakes.
👍👍
I love watching your videos. Not only do I see how you repair something and make it work, the humor is such a blast! Keep doing what you’re passionate about and you’ll keep us entertained, thank you for sharing your content.
Love the blowby coming out of the breather, makes nice ambiance. Well done James!
TCI H4M40 Rough Terrain Forklift ?
U R STILL. Amazing! Thanks for ALL the laughs and great video.
Awesome
You make getting dirty and oily look like fun
You are the best. Thanks friend for the distraction from the apocolypse. If I had money I would send you some with every video you make.
Get a fogger nozzle for your air hose, spray that puppy with solvent then hit it with the hot soapy pressure washer.
I wonder how sketchy id be if it got a 4.9 ford
Probably too long without major surgery, and the front hubs "don't like" PTO (pump drive) work. It'd be nice, for sure.
Give the 4xforklift a good wash to make look like new
cool little lift. I need one of those for the firewood yard
Most definitely a win......3 thumbs up.
Oh no ! A new fan belt ! Ther goes the budget for the year. 😅
The camera falling over is always the best bit
James! That's a score! I love the sound of the engine!
great vid thanks
Wow! That was a challenge. Great work sir!
I really enjoy watching your videos
Good.job cool Forklif Nice show
Kinda looks like a d70 from an international?
From a distance it kinda looks like a CASE
Where are you located? Arizona or New Mexico would love to make a trip and meet you and check out all your projects
awesome videos look forward to the next
This guy is awesome. You have to coolest videos. I cannot be sure but, your wife is one understanding person. Blessed for sure
