Kubota B7100 Tractor Repair Part 2- Fixing Seized Brakes, Replacing Broken Dozer Frame Bolts.
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 вер 2024
- I bought this Kubota 4wd diesel tractor a few months ago as a non runner.
The previous owner had left it out in the rain without a cover over the exhaust, rain water entered the engine and it hydro-locked when he turned it over.
In the previous video I got the engine running, but It has had a hard life and is quite worn out.
In this episode I will fix the seized brake lever, replace all missing frame bolts and improve the exhaust so it can't let rain water into the engine.
I laugh so hard when you say to the chickens, "Don't come in here and shit on my tools! " Thank you for sharing! 😊
Same.
Keeping it real 😄
But but..... Whatcha doin in here!
Chickens aren't particularly bright so you need to remind them constantly.
@@CharlesManchhens are so curious, always getting into everything
The joy it brings me on a rainy miserable day in England, to see that you’ve uploaded just a 14 min video is unreal 😂😂 cheers Marty!!
I second that
Raining up in Yorkshire too, and an hour of Marty is nearly enough.
Same here (NL)!
Watching here in Sussex UK while the rain batters the windows!
My English friend told me once that's the only type of day England has. In his exact words "You can tell when it's summer in England because the rain gets warmer."
Nice one Marty.
Bit of trivia, the muffler can be made to point straight up by undoing the 4 nuts on the manifold and rotating it 90 degrees.
I believe this was so you didn't blow exhaust all over your crops. There was a chrome extension tip on the end originally, very similar to what you made.
The further people live from the main hub, the more resourceful they become. You're a smart lad Marty, always thinking outside the box
Been mulling over this machine since your first video.Reminded me of a conversation with the then new UK Kubota dealer in the seventies. The tractors were engineered for rice field and wet terrace work and of a size and simplicity, that the farmer could work on it in the small huts that were used on their properties at that time. I think they got it about right considering the mini tractor market that they spawned. Best wishes from the UK.
I remember my Dad having a similar conversation at a farm show in Canada in the 80s. I have driven Kubotas doing golf course maintenance, and thoroughly enjoyed them.
Hi Marty. Something tells me your chickens have done their business on your tools more than once !
Diarhea into toolbox.
Yes a runny one in the middle of my socket set 😂
The raft journey sounds like it will be a fun adventure.
Wow that was a lot of loose nuts, good thing you caught them Marty. Looking forward to seeing the "Ole girl" run again. Great video thumbs up.
I see you found an old pair of tiger pattern pants from the rag bin. You must have been notorious at the disco in your single days.
I was wondering whose those were ? too 😂
🇨🇦🤓🤙
As you were saying this bolt was loose and that one was loose, I was thinking "I hope he goes and checks every single other nut and bolt" and you said that you would do that, made me feel a lot better about the project.
Outstanding !! Anxiously awaiting the "put it back together" video lol. Thanks for sharing.
I'm waiting on the new gears, should be here any day now
Hi Marty, glad you checked her out for loose bolts. Can't wait for part 3. Thank you for sharing this video.
As ever beautiful to watch Marty. Lovely job on the brakes !
In case you missed it the first time- 5:50 "GO ON, DON'T SHIT ON MY TOOLS" 😂 Classic Marty T. speaks to the chickens. Laughed out loud 👍
Missed seeing the kids and the dog! Enjoyed following along with the repairs!
The broken casting o0n the brake fram could be made good with metal filler. Clean the area thouroughly, wrap the bolt in cling film and put into place, fill the damaged area with filler of your chice. When it is all set, take out the bolt and grind the area to shape. Good episode.
Thank You for update. As you say the old girl hasn't had a lot of love and attention. It will get it now. Later 👍
Salute Marty,I'm watching this right before bedtime,it's my nite cap.
Great video and gotta love them chooks. I'm surprised that you didn't give the same love to the left brake as the right. Just for piece of mind.
Another little tidying up done for now.
Thanks Marty T for the meticulous check up on the Poor Old Kubota.
Dear Marty T.
👍👌👏 Well done again and as always (video and work). Best regards, luck and especially health to all of you.
Wow! Now you have tightened them, and you could mark them so you can keep an eye on them for losing them.
Great job you are doing . 👍👍👍
Wow..that thing was a deathtrap. Its good you found all those loose bolts
Great video 👍 The bolts could be replaced by locktighted bolt studs and then wire lock the nuts, lots of work but cut's down on maintenance 😅
Great comment. I thought about it too
Wednesday night just got better👍👍👍🇳🇿
Wednesday morning just got better 🇬🇧
I've seen you use that grease gun tip for several years. Here in the US I think that type is really uncommon. It would only be used on flush style fittings. We mainly use couplers that "lock" over the fitting.
great to bring the machine back for good use
Good call on the exhaust pipe. My wife raises chooks but I don't let them in the shed. They have to stay in their coops.
Great seeing one of your Videos they are just so informative and full of useful information Thank you Marty
back when i got my yanmar one of the first thing i did was go over it all checking bolts, all engine and trans/rear end bolts were good, but some front axle and loader related bolts needed to be tightened with one bolt needing to be replaced, also tightened the steering box.
Going to be a dandy little tractor - love your channel.
I got a good laugh out of your chickens - my reds were the same way, as curious as can be! I had one who would come up behind me when I had my arms deep into a machine, then she'd leap up and land on my neck or shoulders!
Hi Marty wow what a good job you’re doing mate no managing director obviously hasn’t come out the check up on you. Probably be good to do the other brake with the grease nipple, but other than that she’s looking good mate. Keep up the good work. Love the videos Cliff from over the ditch in Logan City Queensland Australia
The chickens were only asking if you needed some assistance😁
Always great fixes, suponcered by Macguyver.
Don’t know why you gave up on the leopard pants and converted them to shop wrags
I KNOW
No more Rod Stewart tribute gigs?
Cool video Marty.
The frame bolts always work loose on mine. It's a fairly regular check. When I got it, there were as many missing.
Oh, also the rear wheel pins sheer off. I always try to have a couple spare.
Thanks Marty
Locking Washers !
Looking forward to the next video
Free or cheaper equipment do too lazy maintainence.
For what equiment cost's and then not maintaining it is insane.
Another Excellent video Marty
Thank you Marty 👌
Nice job!
Another great video👍.
How about checking the other brake? Its linings might be worn as it has been doing all the work for goodness knows how long, and I am sure it would appreciate a grease nipple as well 😀
Thanks Marty, helps a lot!
Those chickens heard about those zebra pants.... all had to check them out....😂
🇨🇦🤓🤙
at 9.17 that right angle bracket above your hand . is that top bolt broken aswell ??? from Victoria Australia 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
Thanks for the video !
You can fix anything!
"dont shit on my tools" 🤣
Those of us with free-ranging chickens can recognise the sincerity of that instruction. However, geese are worse.
@@robt2151 The shit will be caustic and will degrade the chromium, never mind the fact that cleaning them off isn't exactly a pleasure
My dad's dog lifted its leg on my open tool box when I was servicing the car. I was not happy.
I had an Alsatian piss in my flight box and nonchalantly stroll away while I was half way across the field shouting at it. I understand your unhappiness. That was 35 years ago but it isn't something you forget.@@Paul-op9oz
6 comments and 3 of them are those wired bots you channel must be big enough for them I dont know how youtube lets them away with things like this
It's foolgle,they allow it and sell them advertising whatever it's called... All about the unholy dollar,and foolgle doesn't care one iota about the people who use yt,or foolgle...
Jeez.....the ole girl was about to lay down and fall apart !!!!!
Nice job.
From Trash to Treasure... Good on ya, mate.
"Don't you shit on my tools!" hahah
👌🏻👍🏻
Thanks Marty.
Another great video.
Check the front end for fluid. The drop box’s and pinion. Mine were empty and junked pinion.
Yes I did check, thankfully still oil in the diff and finals
Where were you when they engineered that bota.
Marty, great ideas on the exhaust pipe and grease zerk. But on the wheel axles . Use anti-seize not grease. Grease is great moving parts but anti-seize for the rest like bolts, nuts, shackles, shafts. This tractor will a good addition to the fleet.
How are all those wash outs holding up?
The washout repairs are holding up fine.. so far
@@MartyT Copper grease would be a good compromise, it's cheap enough and works well as anti-seize.
Grease nipple, in UK 🇬🇧.
Important work completed. Do mice ever get into exhaust systems? 👍👍👍
Maybe once but never twice lol
yes they can nest in unused vehicles.... and get ejected when you start them...they will get into any opening in a vehicle.... air cleaners are common....exhausts are entered.... they love to explore and set up a home...anywhere
🇨🇦🤓🤙
I haven't noticed mice but have found wasp nests and mason bees in exhausts
@@MartyT
I've blown many mice nests out of my vehicles in my life... and living in a rural property...they are everywhere... insects are less trouble... we get wasps nests mainly in trees or house but they can be in my vehicles too... some bee's too around in the woods.... rats are around but less trouble here ..so far....dogs take care of them....i find them dead mainly....
🇨🇦🤓🤙
Makes you wonder if someone started the repair and realised the job was a bridge too far, and called it day.
If it's any consolation Marty, Rhode Island Reds sh1t on my tools up here at N32W64 as well Bermuda !! LOL
I am very surprised you did not add lock washers and / or Loctite paste
Please tell me your method of keeping track of what bolt goes where and what gear, lever, linkage goes where. Is it your own video?
Yes I did need to refer to my footage a couple of times
Those brake shoes looked almost new on the right side because they weren't getting used. lol
I am just going, to put this idea out there. (Nitrous Oxide Systems (NOS) Kubota) Just saying. Just an idea.
Can you repair the broke casing with some epoxy steel? It seems like that would help the bolt to hold better.
9:00 if the bolts are loose, might be worth putting a dab of loctite
👍
So that's what it means to have a screw loose
Good work. I promise to not come in and sh1t on your tools.
Name for the tractor should be Lucy
There's a lot to be said for routine maintenance, eh?
Plenty of people disagree with this but still agree lol
😃
What would cause so many bolts to be loose?
Probably vibrated loose while using the blade on hard ground
Possibly the right break was hardly used that's why. The left break could be warned out more
The right brake was rusted solid in the shaft so couldn't do any work....
❤👍🏻
I have a suggestion, I would put some Loctite on all those bolts. Cheap insurance so that they wouldn't loosen up and back out on you again Marty. Also, what ever happened to the gray market Kubota you had Marty?
I leave the grey market kubota in town with the chipper on the back
Not worried about getting grease onto the shoes?
The slightly smaller o ring on the outside of the shaft should allow it to come out that side rather than into the housing
Why not use a torch to free it? might it damage the part?
It would ruin the lovely paint 😆
👍👍
So that's why my Kubota manual says tighten frame bolts every 50-100 hours
😂 Worth checking, it only takes a few minutes
@@MartyT
👍👌👏 Definitely worth checking! Best regards, luck and health in particular.
Yea but most of us just drive till its kaputs lol @MartyT
@johndeerekid167 I have a suggestion, I would put some Loctite on all those bolts. Cheap insurance so that they wouldn't loosen up and back out on you again.
a bit of locktite would seem to be a better answer
👍
I can't even describe how relieved I am to see that monstrosity of an exhaust extension finally gone. It's been bugging the hell out of me since the first video.
Can’t wait for part 3. Onya Marty.I want to see that raft trip.
Certainly wasn’t a well maintained tractor before you got it Marty. Thanks for the video.👍👍
A few aspiring mecHENics I see at your place…🍗🍗🍗
Suggestion:
A 50/50 mix of Acetone & Automatic transmission fluid. Makes a great rust buster !!! 😎
Used to use 50/50 deisel and kerosene
the blade frame on my father-in-law's kubota built tractor has the bolts loosen up constantly. I had to teach him to torque them up every couple of runs down the driveway in winter, because they were backing off even with some threadlock on the bolts.
5:48 Vicious little velociraptors. Coming into your shop, hunting in a pack. Vocalizing about the best way to take you down...they are too chicken to take you on alone! 🙂
So that's how all the 10mm tools go missing. 😲 Those little basturds. 🙄
I know some doctors who could learn from your bedside manners. Talking to your patient and reassuring them is always a good move. 👍
Really sometimes. I have the smartest. Conversations. With. Myself
Mmm, I would not be reassured if my doctor said he was just going to tighten my nuts. 😲
And when the nurse comes barging in, "Don't you dare shit on my tools"
Not on mine, you don't!😂😂
It came with enough spare exhaust tube to keep you going for a while Cheers
1/2 an hour once a month checking and tightening stuff up would save a lot of grief, time and expense.
Anytime I have a shaft like that that's frozen up, I soak it in vinegar overnight. That usually eats out the rust pretty good.
I wonder if the orings would have let the vinegar in
@MartyT I thought about that but from the amount of rust it had seemed like moisture was getting in there somehow. Thanks for the reply . Tennessee here.
Straight up ol' skool mechanicing. Fun to watch.
Marty T just wanted you to know that I really appreciate and enjoy watching your videos with a person knowing pretty much what they are dealing with and you make it all look so simple. Great job and thanks for sharing 👍🏾
They will never learn unless you let them watch (apprentice chicken)
Another cracking upload Marty. Love your work, Chap.
