Great to watch. I did my apprenticeship on Oshkosh trucks out here in South Africa. Ours were powered by Cat 3306, 1674 and Cummins Ntc engines. The model was known as the R series. All the little red buttons on the "dash" were fuses. If one went out all you did was push it in to reset it. The Oshkosh was known as a very powerful and tough truck. Thanks for showing, as it really brings back memories.
I don’t want you to think I’m a Know it all, because I drove an Oshkosh for the town of Franklin Massachusetts and it had a wing plow also it was powered by a Cat 1160 which Cat no longer makes BUt, the first thing I would do if you are going to keep that truck is GET RID of that Dinky plow and find a decent road plow like a Frink or something similar because with the power that this truck it will push just about anything And just a little info on the truck I drove , it went through the Blizzard of 78 with a V Plow and never got stuck Also you might think about finding a sander box to mount on the back These are just some suggestions mind you but I really miss driving the Oshkosh that I drove it was the best time of my life 😊
Regarding the brushes: just push them back deep into the holders. The springs will snap over and push on the sides instead of the ends, thus holding the brushes retracted. Once installed, push the brushes down until the springs snap back over the end. That is how it's supposed to work. Some brushes even have a little divet on the side for the spring to snap into prior to mounting.
I run a shop that repairs, overhauls, and tests turbojet engines for the F-86 Sabre. I enjoy your projects, and I always learn something from watching you get things moving.
I lived about 80 miles East of Nome Alaska in the early 60’s on an old WW2 runway with an old B29 bomber crashed at the end of the runway. There were 6 houses and several warehouses/garages all operated by the FAA. My Dad was the station manager. Our old snow plow truck gave up and the flew in a newer Oshkosh in an Air Force C124 Globemaster. The plow came in the dump box and just barley cleared the upper door frame. The windshield slanted foreword which looked kind of strange but helped with snow build up. I was 13-14 with home study classes 7~8 grade.
Now... I've parked a vehicle for a month or three before selling it before. I can't imagine parking a piece of equipment that big and expensive for a decade over a starter.
I've been working on a dump truck with the only things wrong was the starter and a blockage in the fuel line. Been sitting 10 years. Don't know why people let pieces of equipment just sit for dumb little issues
When you have a forest filled with equipment like this, priorities can be different. Plus, it's not worth much over scrap price with every part on it patched together. It works for someone handy, but if you are paying an employee hourly to operate a plow, you'll save money by buying something more reliable.
As soon as you find your high and low range, maybe your attempts to move it around in tight areas will make it a bit smoother transition to pedal, and man as it really is not a jerky machine... I used to own several oshkosh trucks known for their ability to move in the mud and other rough terrain... I hauled logs in the early fifties with them... big gasoline engines that were over five hundred cubic inch engines.. they still only had like two hundred horsepower but those four barrel carburetors on the huge six cylinder engines would haul a mountain. I say carburetors because there was two of them on a single six cylinder engine and it got less than a mile to the gallon to keep running. I remember filling the two tanks with gas that was ten cents a gallon then, and it carried almost two hundred gallons of fuel... that worked out to about a hundred and fifty miles of travel with no idle time. Those pistons were like six or more inches across the top and were over a foot long for the top of the piston itself... took a week to rebuild it an it was worn out in less than twenty thousand miles so I always kept a couple engine kits available.... later put a cummins in one an a screaming six jimmy in a couple others... it was just what I had, not what I wanted... when done, sold for scrap iron thinking no one wanted them. And no where to keep one at either... it was junk or fines for them.
Our highway department (Worcester, NY) used those for many years. I remember after a heavy snow seeing them clearing a road, and the only thing you could see was the flashing light on top, and the smoke. Great video!
anytime you are starting one that has been parked for a prolonged period that shows a high oil level it's advised to check if there is water in the oil. the water always drops to the bottom so just pull the drain plug cause the water would come out fist lowing the oil level
I'm from Oshkosh WI there all many boneyards of Oshkosh Trucks waiting to be retrofitted into something else. Many of those have been sitting for many years too. You'd have a field day here. Yes, the roads throughout the city are still be plowed with Oshkosh Plows especially when the snow is really deep.
bone yards are gone. shipped all down to Red River Army depot. Where the retrofit trucks were are all new trucks. Plows aren't Oshkosh plows anymore here Oshkosh dpw only has one Oshkosh truck left and it's used with a huge bumper on the back and a big sign to protect the construction workers leaning on shovels.
@@markhuisinga1698 there's a bunch of Oshkosh trucks on Hughes St lot ready to be retrofittes north of Gate 12 and also in Nolte's tow lot. What's the lot on 3135 Oregon St. There aren't quite as many as there used to be admittedly. Educate me.
HI, ITS A CUMMINS! They always start up even 20 years is no issue. great engine and besides from dodge?chrysler only truly appreciated by farmers and truckers And ME! thx for the vid
@@LowBuckGarage yep, I've seen so many thrown/replaced that only needed the drive or brushes. However, my dad had one stick in the flywheel. He heard a strange noise, revved the engine and managed to expand the amateur into the field windings. That one was done!
I really like when you take starters apart. I did that on my H1 and people said just buy a new one. I'm cheap. Ordered the parts and repaired it. It's only a 2001 and 21 years is nothing to a starter. (Good one). Thanks for the channel!! Those 2 air cooled diesels were great. I'm subscribed now.
You definitely got lucky,with how many things worked after sitting that long. Here is something I learned years ago by accident on a starter solenoid. The brass buttons you were filling on will come out by taking the second nut off and you will see after knocking it out, it has a square shoulder and can be turned it a quarter, half or three quarter
I loved that you put it to work after the start up. that is what most channels are lacking. anyone can get lucky and fire one up but will it do its intended purpose. Keep up the great content
Oshkosh & Cummings 6BT Make a good combo. I use to haul sand down in New Orleans ad one of the other drivers drove a Oshkosh, I don't know what kind of power plant he had, (Maybe a CAT 3408), but he would kick all of our asses when it came to driving & hauling the sand! That guy took extra care of his truck and eve repainted it Candy Apple Red!
Back in the seventies I drove a new Oshkosh Dump truck that a time or two we had a 955 Cat loader in the bed. It had a cat engine with a 10 speed rto road ranger transmission with a three speed auxiliary transmission it was a tandem axle all wheel drive with flotation front tires the front tires were underneath the cab and the bottom of the front bumper was five feet off the ground. We had two that were identical they were the widest the law would allow and topped out at 68 mph. I was young and dumb back then we regularly grossed over 100 thousand pounds and I scared a lot of people in my home town when I turned the corner and they were beyond the stop stripe and I put my front bumper over the hoods of their cars. Needless to say I loved my truck! By the way that lever on the right side of the steering column is a hand valve for trailer brakes. I enjoy your videos, God Bless and stay safe out there!
That truck is a beautiful brute... Although it did kinda remind me of the old 1970s horror movie 'Killdozer' when it was driving through the trees, with the blade up...
These are really cool trucks used to work on them all the time when I was a gse tech.they would run the wide open for 12 hours then just and sit and idle for weeks at night for the most part. The broke alot brakes got burned up all the time.
BEFORE STARTING ANY DIESEL that has been sitting BAR THE ENGINE OVER to ensure free spin on crank. Small crowbar on the flywheel through the clutch and bell housing !!
26:30 not when you have 50 trucks lined up at 7:00 a.m. needed loading with a shovel bucket and they have a 12-mile haul before they're back. #quarryworksucks
That thing would make a great off road camper tractor unit with that engine, chassis and lockers.... not to mention on board hydraulics.. Make the cab nicer (air ride seats and upholstry and all that) and extend the chassis and build a camper compartment, then you would have a brilliant world cruiser.
That is a cool truck. Never heard of Oshkosh before. Good repair job on that starter. Those contacts were definitely high resistance. Alternator is charging too at nearly 50 Amps. Great video.
There used to be two neon colored poles on each end of the front of that plow to help you see where it was located but it appears that they are quite broken and missing
👍👌👏 Very well done again and as always (video and work). The engine runs great and sounds really healthy. Thanks a lot for making teaching explaining recording editing uploading and sharing. Best regards luck and health.
Dear @@LowBuckGarage You're welcome, it's my pleasure. Thanks for replying and for giving a 👍 for/to my comment. I totally appreciate both. Sincerely yours.
Cool rig, that little bed probably was use for a ballistic box keep some weight on the tires and make it ride a little smoother, probably off a 20s or 30s dump truck
I believe that is an airport snow plow. So that blade should have movement and is not designed for "earth moving" type loads. Hence the movement and the small hydraulic ram.
Just in time for Pizza night at the dogpatch! That Cummins sounds healthy same old fuel? I bet your Gramps was a cool guy to hang with! Thats a big ass truck for sure!
Will I wasn't ready to send that comment but did! So on the solenoid. Knock the brass stud out and turn it 180 and put it back in and now you have a new contact surface and your ready to go. But your way worked too and thats all that matters. Awesome find, good luck!
i have a parts one got for axles out of 100 or so oshkosh trucks this is the first one i ever seen run no less move and the steering made men out of you im makeing a tractor out of mine reframe with real power steering shorter and tractor tires never seen one with a broken axle
I subscribed. Nice truck. A 6BT Cummins is a plus over the Screamin' green leaker it replaced. The Meyers plow is for a Jeep or pickup. It's not a Bulldozer. A through tidy and a fluid and filter change should get you back in business... if you bought the truck.
I'd love to trade you out of that Oshkosh 4x4 truck. If you're in range enough to the Sweetwater Tx Ablinene Tx areas . But I have a feeling that the Oshkosh tractor is too far a way. But at the chance that it would work out , I have 5 akers of projects may can find something u like. I'm all so in to the building of the better mouse trap as you are & have considered the notion of starting a U tube Chanel. Considering asking advice from some as your self . Love your comments & you humerus mader of fact naturalness in front of the camera. Keep on keeping on . Very cool!
That handle that says “not for parking” is the Johnson bar. It would apply service air to trailer brakes only. With no trailer, it would just be open line that would drain your air if applied.
the way that engine cranked right over after sitting over a decade is crazy lol
It's a Cummins!
Direct injection, steel return lines, NO FREAKIN' GLOW PLUGS!!!
I just watched the scene and thought, damn that work on the starter had to feel so, so good once that beautiful piece of machinery cranked right over
Alright, I am now looking for old trucks to rescue. I have never seen anyone repair a starter like that. Thanks for the lesson.
Great to watch. I did my apprenticeship on Oshkosh trucks out here in South Africa. Ours were powered by Cat 3306, 1674 and Cummins Ntc engines. The model was known as the R series.

Thanks for showing, as it really brings back memories.
That's neat, thanks for the info!
Take care down there in SA.
Love that you were able to get the old girl moving. You removing and cleaning up the starter was educational. Where are you based out of?
I don’t want you to think I’m a Know it all, because I drove an Oshkosh for the town of Franklin Massachusetts and it had a wing plow also it was powered by a Cat 1160 which Cat no longer makes BUt, the first thing I would do if you are going to keep that truck is GET RID of that Dinky plow and find a decent road plow like a Frink or something similar because with the power that this truck it will push just about anything
And just a little info on the truck I drove , it went through the Blizzard of 78 with a V Plow and never got stuck
Also you might think about finding a sander box to mount on the back
These are just some suggestions mind you but I really miss driving the Oshkosh that I drove it was the best time of my life 😊
South Africa has trucks ? I thought only welfare came from Africa
Regarding the brushes: just push them back deep into the holders. The springs will snap over and push on the sides instead of the ends, thus holding the brushes retracted. Once installed, push the brushes down until the springs snap back over the end.
That is how it's supposed to work. Some brushes even have a little divet on the side for the spring to snap into prior to mounting.
great thing about YT is the amount of old vehicles and equipment that were made so well so long ago getting a new life...great job..
Thanks!

You'll be surprised working on antique iron like this. I have a truck parked now because no one in the country has parts!
Whatever company owned it was probably looking for an excuse to replace it anyway
When you have a forest filled with equipment like this, priorities can be different. Plus, it's not worth much over scrap price with every part on it patched together. It works for someone handy, but if you are paying an employee hourly to operate a plow, you'll save money by buying something more reliable.
Redneck mentality.
That truck has got to be one of the COOLEST finds of the century. Can't wait to see how you fix it up and out it to work.
I have to say, that is one handsome truck.
YOU JUST MADE MY LIFE! RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME, ALL THOSE YEARS. THANK YOU.
I love the metal milk crate for a work surface, one of my favorite tools!
Glad to see that truck being saved, and loved

First time I've ever stumble upon your great YT chanel, and I love it so much already. keep up the great work!🛠🎥👈👈😉
I really like how you didn't check any fluids,obstructions, air filter,nothing under hood before trying to crank it.
You don’t need to worry about checking under the hood.
I love the sound of a Cummins diesel. Ram 2500 6.7l Cummins here. Darlington, South Carolina
You are a smart guy to be able to take that starter apart and figure out the problem.
I learned a lot from your dissection of that engine starter.
Thank you for showing it.
anytime you are starting one that has been parked for a prolonged period that shows a high oil level it's advised to check if there is water in the oil. the water always drops to the bottom so just pull the drain plug cause the water would come out fist lowing the oil level
I like watching the videos. I'm watching these old mechanical machines. And work without a computer. And how easy it is to make repairs.
Just love the shape of the windscreen. Got that nautical look .🎉🎉Dave Downunder
I love these old trucks they will pull anything u want to and trucks today just don't have that lower gear
That's a pretty cool old truck
nice to hear hank hill still out doing a solid line of work!
That's a great truck , it will need some time and love, and it will be right and a great hobby.

There is no G in CUMMINS.
One beautiful beast . Easy fix, you got lucky !
That 6BT is the most sought after engine for the 80 series Toyota Land Cruiser diesel conversion. BTW, learning a lot from you! Thanks!
A 6bt is way too much engine for any cruiser. I think you mean 4bt. 1hz is a much better option anyway than a bread truck engine.
It's getting more and more popular for Land Rover Defenders conversions too.
The 6BT is the engine Land Rover should've put in back in 1984!.
Glad you like it, thanks 👍

THATS AN AWSOME TRUCK, I WOULDNT MIND DRIVING IT AROUND JUST FOR THE HECK OF IT.
You should add a third horn, and a valve which cycles them, instead of using all at the same time. That sounds great :)
These are really cool trucks used to work on them all the time when I was a gse tech.they would run the wide open for 12 hours then just and sit and idle for weeks at night for the most part. The broke alot brakes got burned up all the time.
Your off of the cuff witt is *VERY ENTERTAINING!*
I got to drive one of these old rigs on a farm in Idaho many years ago. I was on top of the world. Thanks for cranking it up.
Nice to see an old truck brought to life
I love these getum running videos. I always learn so much.

That lever is a work brake so you can stop and hold the brakes without holding the pedal i believe
That air line was barely even broken. That’s how you know it’s good.
Great truck ! Always wanted a Oshkosh or FWD even though I have no need for one !
That is a cool truck. Never heard of Oshkosh before. Good repair job on that starter. Those contacts were definitely high resistance. Alternator is charging too at nearly 50 Amps. Great video.

There used to be two neon colored poles on each end of the front of that plow to help you see where it was located but it appears that they are quite broken and missing
Nice rig with a lil love it has great potential for many many jobs
You Can't Beat an 0l' 0shkosh truck for any hard work. I've hauled a Many of Em' out of Wisconsin factory. And, for the Military too.
I'd sure like to have that truck and I've got the plow it needs. Cool truck reminds me of my Coleman
That is a cool old Oshkosh for sure.
Your power steering probably has air in it. After you work it back and forth for a few days and topping up the reservoir your steering should be ok.
You're exactly right, it did start working well after I used it for a while.
That is A LOT OF TRUCK for such a DINKY LITTLE PLOW !!!
What a cool 'ol truck !.........thanks.
Great truck,another save.without an own goal.
wow what a beast
you also can usually remove the bolts and turn around to the unused side
1:40 those alpha brand batteries are designed for battery backup systems in communications. They last a surprising long time!!!
Always good for the threads on the starter stud when it gets arced a few dozen times!
First time watcher. So far so good. Please upgrade camera to something a little more stable

With how quick it starts that must be a ve pump 6BT!
Repair is so much better than replacement.
Good enough for Government work.
You run the steering pump dry it’s more than likely shot, you will need the little OC3 up there to clean up that wood 😊
Thanks for the vid, great fix on the starter
Just in time for Pizza night at the dogpatch! That Cummins sounds healthy same old fuel? I bet your Gramps was a cool guy to hang with! Thats a big ass truck for sure!
