Had a similar issue recently. I welded a very large nut to the pin and used an impact to break it loose. I was even able to salvage the pin. Next step was the carbon arc if that didn’t work. I enjoy seeing your projects.
I could hear my dad telling a younger me to beat that pin like I mean it! Now I've found that the vibration from an air hammer or shock methods work very well for freeing stuck stuff. Also paraffin wax and some heat.
When I saw the 50 ton jack getting set up, I thought something is going to move or bleed. That was a hard fought battle. Nice job getting that pin out and making the video.
I've run into the same thing a few times myself on frozen pins. Had to use the Oxylance on a couple of 'em and the porta-power reverse pulling method on the others. I have .5" and .75" male adapters that thread into the pin with a 1.25" threaded female side that I use a 24" section of allthread for pulling. 36-ton hollow ram usually persuades a non-compliant pin. Great content, Isaac! IMPROVISE. ADAPT. OVERCOME.
Super under rated comment ^ - A porta-power and a "Through Hole" or "Hallow Center" jack is a damn good thing to have when pulling pins on heavy equipment. As a Field Tech for HE, they've saved me a ton of work many a time.
At Fording River - Fording Operations we had the Oxylance that took an 8 foort bu 3/4 inch rods, use this the lance thru pins from 12-24 inches in thickness to 2 -6 feet long .
It really warms my cold black heart to see your "Mini Me" learnin how to do something.

Love seeing you and your son working together!! You all did an amazing job of just working through a tough problem - as you always do!! And you have been teaching this to your son and it shows!! I know many guys would have probably walked away from the job after the 1st day and 30 exo rods! The 50 ton press was a job saving idea!

Just an fyi if you come across another nightmare like this. You really ate through those blue ones fast. Terrific work, you are a Jedi Master Craftsman.
I use those exothermic rods all the time they are sweet for blowing holes in stubborn pins I like the idea of welding the bracket to the machine definitely gonna keep that idea in my bag of tricks thanks for the video!

Maybe put a very large pipe wrench on it when you can get a good bite,and twist and push! I have done it many times on huge fan shafts and pump shafts! It seems to work better for some crazy reason! Nice video !
At first Isaac, I thought this was going to be a "you don't win them all" & you would cut away the pin bore housing & replace/weld in a custom machined housing & pin. But about half-way thru the video when you bought a new bigger jack, Isaac is going to win, no matter what! Awesome job!

Your son is an awesome young man. I had both of my sons work with me at different times, and it was some of the best teaching and learning experience in my life, in both directions!!
You can always tell a man's experience by the swing of his hammer, you got some solid shots in there Isaac. We spent 2 hrs straight swinging a 20 lb Sledge and pin hammer to drive a stuck pin once, it was brutal on the hands........I like YOUR method much better!!! Good work as always brother, and thanks for the great content!
All that for a stuck pin...the way it goes sometimes. The video of the trip to get a jack really brings home the flatness and wide open spaces in Texas!
I actually built those machines when I first got out of welding school. Lull Engineering was located in Eagan, Minnesota and it was a fun place to work. We used to be required to stamp our initials just below where that pin was located at the top of the frame. Nice job getting that pin out. Be safe.

That was a fairly cool process and that pin put up 1 hell of a fight. It was cool watching the board "under" the jack compress down to about 1/4" as the pressure built up then spring back maybe an 1/8" at a time.
Everytime I watch one of your videos I get childhood memories. I grew up on an excavating contractors lot. When I was just a kid I always watched the mechanics do this kind of work. Thank You Young Man I enjoy every one you make.

That was a tough one. You got it out though. You got to be proud of your son. He's quite the worker. Never stops. Keeps on going. We never hear him complain. You'll be a good worker. One day he'll be on his own and have his own company. Good stuff. 👍👍🙂🇨🇦
Lord, I hate pins. I just finished changing cylinders on a little wrecker. Four 1” pins. What a cluster. I admire your work, Isaac. Bless you and yours
Another good reason to put things together with anti-seize. A few zerk fittings wouldn't hurt when installing the next one. Perseverance in the end always wins; excellent job!
Well, I guess you have to imagine how much the company saved on grease all those years...What a struggle! I smiled at my own frustration as the pin refused to budge. Thanks so much for sharing this herculean effort with us.
Recently i had same issue same Lull machine . Really difficult.. I cut tube horizontal with grinder cut off wheel. Then spread tube with wedges . Then pin came out. I then rewelded tube later when pin back in. I was hitting pin with 500lb steel crane block on crane cable swung into pin . 🤣 Excellent work.
Please do a shop tour or tooling tour? Love your expertise, the pointers I’ve learned from you motive me more and more everyday to slap my hood down and lay some metal. Keep up the good work sir!
Amazing work as always! I like seeing the length of time needed. I use Tri-flow. I know everyone has their favorite, but I do a lot of rusty stuff. And it works for me if I let it sit overnight. Anyway love the video!
That was a 12 round fight for sure but your ingenuity and perseverance prevailed . The education your son is getting from this puts him light years ahead of his competition and any person in his age group just starting from scratch . It's good to see our youth learning this much needed trade . He will be prosperous and live a good life with the skills , tricks and ingenuity he is learning from you . Hopefully he will pass it down to his generation .
Awesome job adapting and over coming the problem. I had an upper pin on a Case loader arm that I lanced and it still wouldn't come out. We used a breaker on a skid loader to drive it in and cut the other end off (only could move it a few inches) until it was out. A field lance tool was an 1/8" black pipe with a ball valve on it.
Wow perseverance!!!!! To the hilt. Always liked your choice of background music too. You get the most interesting jobs to figure out.. And you do them all.
Another good job Isaac, nice to see your boy working with you, the work ethic in this country is definitely fading it is up to the parents to put it back in place and you are👍🏼 doing a fine job.
The first thing my father inlaw told me when I was around the first equipment maintenance issues was grease is cheap always grease the machine before use check all fluids before you use if you didn't use it the day before
That must have felt sooo good when it finally began to move . Some jobs you just can't be paid enough for doing , can't charge mental anguish on an invoice . Well earned congratulations on defeating that beast.
Holy moly! Great job and heck of an effort! All the customer needs to do is hone it out to glassy smooth. Funny how a "quick" $$ job turns into a "not-so-quick" $$$$$ job! If it were not for your talent and amazing problem-solving skills, it would have been a whole lot more for the customer to go another route $$$$$$$$$$$! Thanks for having us alongside your jobs Issac.
Great job, great perseverance. Once that pin was out about an inch I was thinking putting a 3 foot pipe wrench on it and turning it while pressing with the jack might have helped. That sure was one stubborn pin. Strong work!
It is may work optimal when just hammering the pin, because it act like a spring, and can be move as a worm, when the far end keep unstucked by slow rotating.
Glad to see your helper getting some time in! Learning some important lessons there! Need the piece of 3/8 rod with a beltsander belt section attached to make a deep bore flap wheel. Usually use gorilla tape to get the belt to stick to the rod.
I sure felt for you and the struggle. Hard to tell from here what else could be brought to the battle. I've got a 10 ton porta-power and I have an hyd cyl for it that creates 30 ton but on moves a half inch. I have used it twice since I got it and it will move mountaiins a 1/2" at a time... Ah, good ole Tractor Supply. This was a Great video highlighting the teamwork with your son. Best to You as Always. I've seen a couple of guys that welded a pin to a 5' bar which allowed them to pound on the pin with smacking the person holding the pin; I watched a guy in Ireland using an oxygen lance to burn out a post for a rock crusher. The rods he was using were 9' long x 1.5" with 1/8" rods inside the rod. It was hooked to a bank of 15/16 oxygen bottles. Unbelievable....
Recently had a 90mm pin in an excavator bucket pin that a 25 ton wheel loader wouldn't budge. Snapon air hammer got it out. No comparison between jacking and air hammer. It never fails me. The shock action makes all the difference. It never budged with the biggest sledge and a hundred shots and came out in about 10 minutes with the air hammer.
Yea I've got an IR air hammer, its amazing what some vibration and shock will do for things. Always a good idea to smack a union before trying to separate it too. Love when hitting things works!
@@jheissjr After about 25 yrs it finally croaked and I didn't have time to repair it so I replaced it with an Astro pneumatic after spending time researching on line. It is the strongest air hammer on the market right now. It is a monster.
Isaac, you are one absolutely persistently tenacious man when it comes to getting the damn-near impossible accomplished for a customer. Also, you have got to be part bloodhound when it comes to finding your way to these worksites that are in the middle of nowhere.
What amazed me was how difficult the progress was even after the pin had moved a significant amount. Usually, after a pin like that begins to move it will get easier and easier as there is less material still in contact along the bore. This one continued to be extremely problematic nearly all the way out. Good job sticking with it and completing this tough one! Nick, North West Farmer
After doing this job do you think burning out a portion of the center of pin did anything? I am wondering if there would be a way to rapid cool pin (nitrogen spray) to shrink it diametrically. Seems your external heat and hydraulic jack were what made this a success. I would think you would have to burn nearly all the pin out before it would release from bore or create a hot bore and cold pin to be able to pound pin out with hammer.
Great video as always Isaac! What I learnt most from this video and also me always looking for ways to do something easier. If I ever need to do something like this I need to buy a pneumatic hammer of some kind and if I need to break out hydraulics I need to buy something where all I have to do is press a button.
At 41:58 you can see where the base metal bent under the pin from the forces of the jack on the welded-on bracket. Amazing display of shear power. Awesome video! Thank you!
Nice job Isaac and son! It’s great to see him following in your footsteps. Also good to see him indoctrinated into hard work. But you could’ve converted the jack to air over hydraulic. Lol
We use to use a bigger version of this to remove frozen pin. They were 1/2” pipes 8’ long and stuffed with wire. They had flared ends so you could stack them and would they move metal, as long as you could keep the oxygen to them, and they went through a lot of it. Sometimes you just have to report to extreme violence, judiciously applied.
Never used that burn rod, but we did use burn bars, or oxygen Lance's to cut through big press shafts that were ceased like that. Oxygen makes the cut go much quicker as the fuel is the shaft you are cutting out. Gets pretty hot! Nice video on how to stick with a stinking job. Not give up and show the boy how it gets done. He will remember this lesson as I have remembered all the problems and solutions taught to me when I listened to the skilled people I was fortunate enough to know.
That was stubborn pin ! Maybe a couple chunks of dry ice pushed inside the pin might have done some good. I dunno. Surprised you don't carry a Porta-Power around in the truck. Maybe a little easier than the big jack. Good to see your kid working with you !
Outstanding example of how a "simple" job can take days - customer has to understand that this stuff is not always easy. And how it takes experience to figure ways to get it done. Love this. Bring on the line bore!
@@Lucas12v The way hydraulic bottle jacks i think i has a tube inside that moves the oil upward and drains it back down to a resevoir. Its more effiecent vertically. Port a powers can move the oil in any position, so the can be used horizontaly. I will see if theres a video i can watch to verify. I always wanted a portapower but the were expensive for a good one.
played with a similar setup in extraction/extrication training for work.. but we had the rods, as well as a 50ft of steel hollow hose that we could just keep feeding until either it ran out of hose or the composite oxy tanks on the backpack ran out.. the composite triple tank backpack would run it for a while, and we could refill in about 10 minutes from a full sized O2 cylinder.... it would cut through a 3/16 cell door like butter... we started ours using steel wool taped to the end of the rod/tube, and striking a 9v battery...
Just a old man here. I got 50 years on one of those short handle BFH's, I got the shoulder rota tor cuff issues to prove it [ two surgeries, one PRP injection, just had stem cell & PRP Jan.4th, it has been impressive as to amount of healing]. Re watch your own video, focus on how high of a level your arm is to your shoulder and realize you are in an impingement state where you are exerting the greatest amount of stress on rotator cuff fibers creating maximum wear. Better yet show the video to a physical therapist! For that situation pro active thinking would be to of raised the fork lift platform to where you are swinging the hammer more on the plain of a golf club. If you really want to listen to a old man develop a regular gym style work out program. Nolan Ryan pitched an outstanding long time due to a regimen of rotator cuff exercise. Do your self a favor, take the video to a physical therapist, take your son, he will suggest that you two start bonding working out at a gym. I think if you do you will see it as one of the wisest business/money making/ father son decisions you can make. I have been really impressed with your presentations, you put the man in the word manhood. I posted my first UA-cam video a couple of days ago dealing with my new Miller Air Pack Bobcat and how to charge battries with old constant currant machines. I intend to do a video on the Astro [Big Nasty] air hammer and truck drag link replacement and ujoint replacement specifically for that tools ability to minimize rotator cuff wear. I am 76 I can still pop axles with a sledge.
Typically hydraulic bottle jacks do not work laying down only in the vertical position... I have to say I think you got lucky with that 50 t Jack... I would have rented a porta power But I have done exactly the same thing you chose to do... Another fabulous job by the dynamic duo!!! With your son working with you by your side what a Blessing Sir!!! As always God-bless you and your family & all the newcomers and longtime viewers in this community 🪓🤠👍
Wow, I've never seen that rod used before. I really get a lot out of your video's sir. From gouging to now this exothermic rod, very educational. Thank you for sharing your work and great your partner is getting the education as well. Hat's off to both of you.
I had a job removing some 2 inch pins that were frozen in about 8 inches. A lance would have been nice, but I drilled holes through them and use a torch to melt out the rest. That was quite the ordeal
as oil filed mechanic worked with so many situation like this and worse, you are really brave, that jack is just just like landmine. what we usually do is just give it a good wd40 and no hammering so much that will ruin it , and with jack on for overnight , next morning you will find it out ,.sometimes believe me we find it ejected a distance from the machine. anyway you get the job done
I work on these things for a living and other material handling equipment (anything with a set of forks on it). Had to remove the same pin once to remove the boom out cylinder for a reseal. It took a mobile welder like you a day and a half to cut that sucker out using exo and prayers. Like you, he finished with welding a press fixture and pressing it out. I think that welder charged 1400.00 in labor and supplies to remove it. That was at our discount since we use him quite often. No easy way after they rust in. It is what it is.
Stuck was an understatement,good job Isaac and great job on teaching your son 👍

in some cases on equipment there are no grease points for certain things nor places for the grease to travel to get to those points
@Darin Wilton Exactly. I saw that pin is bolted into that long boss so it doesn't move in there, hence, no grease.

Lord, I hate pins. I just finished changing cylinders on a little wrecker. Four 1” pins. What a cluster. I admire your work, Isaac. Bless you and yours
Another good reason to put things together with anti-seize. A few zerk fittings wouldn't hurt when installing the next one. Perseverance in the end always wins; excellent job!
You could see the young man's arms getting tired, and he never complained, just kept at it!
Brought the "apprentice" along (your son). Nothing like good old fashioned OJT to learn the tricks of the trade.
Well, I guess you have to imagine how much the company saved on grease all those years...What a struggle! I smiled at my own frustration as the pin refused to budge. Thanks so much for sharing this herculean effort with us.
Recently i had same issue same Lull machine .
Really difficult..
I cut tube horizontal with grinder cut off wheel. Then spread tube with wedges . Then pin came out. I then rewelded tube later when pin back in.
I was hitting pin with 500lb steel crane block on crane cable swung into pin . 🤣
Excellent work.
One of the toughest jobs of work I have ever seen . . . thanx
Man Issac you earned every penny on that one. You definitely have more patience than me. Thanks for sharing and as always keep up the great work Bud.
Please do a shop tour or tooling tour? Love your expertise, the pointers I’ve learned from you motive me more and more everyday to slap my hood down and lay some metal. Keep up the good work sir!
Amazing work as always! I like seeing the length of time needed. I use Tri-flow. I know everyone has their favorite, but I do a lot of rusty stuff. And it works for me if I let it sit overnight. Anyway love the video!
That was a 12 round fight for sure but your ingenuity and perseverance prevailed . The education your son is getting from this puts him light years ahead of his competition and any person in his age group just starting from scratch . It's good to see our youth learning this much needed trade . He will be prosperous and live a good life with the skills , tricks and ingenuity he is learning from you . Hopefully he will pass it down to his generation .
You don't give up sir until the job is finished . Great job from both of you .
I've never wanted to have kids, but seeing you work with your son is moving man. Keep up the good work
Awesome job adapting and over coming the problem. I had an upper pin on a Case loader arm that I lanced and it still wouldn't come out. We used a breaker on a skid loader to drive it in and cut the other end off (only could move it a few inches) until it was out.
A field lance tool was an 1/8" black pipe with a ball valve on it.
Wow perseverance!!!!! To the hilt. Always liked your choice of background music too. You get the most interesting jobs to figure out..
And you do them all.
I thought the bolts job was a tenacity master class, but this was next level 👍 You could hear a pin drop!
Sir I viewed this last year its still good thanks. MERRY CHRISTMAS
Knocked that one out of the park!! A great team in the making. Well done sir!👍
i hope your customers appreciate the tenacity and resourcefulness, you always get the job done.
Another good job Isaac, nice to see your boy working with you, the work ethic in this country is definitely fading it is up to the parents to put it back in place and you are👍🏼 doing a fine job.
I agree. Everyone knocks the kids but it's mostly the parents who have failed it instill work ethics in their child.
Both you commenters are 🤡s. Repeating the same b$ll$hit that your grandaddies said about you. Get the fwck off my lawn.
@@adobedoug2564neither of my grandfather's said that. So move on with your rambling bs.
Isaac and Son - you are a case study in patience, persistence and know how.
The first thing my father inlaw told me when I was around the first equipment maintenance issues was grease is cheap always grease the machine before use check all fluids before you use if you didn't use it the day before
That must have felt sooo good when it finally began to move . Some jobs you just can't be paid enough for doing , can't charge mental anguish on an invoice .
Well earned congratulations on defeating that beast.
Job well done ISAAC and SON!
Great worth ethic and execution of the task!!! Wow! This one sure was a Bear!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Holy moly! Great job and heck of an effort! All the customer needs to do is hone it out to glassy smooth. Funny how a "quick" $$ job turns into a "not-so-quick" $$$$$ job!
If it were not for your talent and amazing problem-solving skills, it would have been a whole lot more for the customer to go another route $$$$$$$$$$$!
Thanks for having us alongside your jobs Issac.
*I C Weld* Bravo well done, thank-you sir for taking the time to bring us along. God Bless.
Patience and the correct tools,but your knowledge is the key. Your son has a good teacher
Great job, great perseverance. Once that pin was out about an inch I was thinking putting a 3 foot pipe wrench on it and turning it while pressing with the jack might have helped. That sure was one stubborn pin. Strong work!
It is may work optimal when just hammering the pin, because it act like a spring, and can be move as a worm, when the far end keep unstucked by slow rotating.
What a bear of a job. Your perseverance is admirable.
Glad to see your helper getting some time in! Learning some important lessons there! Need the piece of 3/8 rod with a beltsander belt section attached to make a deep bore flap wheel. Usually use gorilla tape to get the belt to stick to the rod.
yup, You bet!
And im stoked to see your son out there working with you. Keep the trades alive!!!
I sure felt for you and the struggle. Hard to tell from here what else could be brought to the battle.
I've got a 10 ton porta-power and I have an hyd cyl for it that creates 30 ton but on moves a half inch. I have used it twice since I got it and it will move mountaiins a 1/2" at a time... Ah, good ole Tractor Supply.
This was a Great video highlighting the teamwork with your son. Best to You as Always.
I've seen a couple of guys that welded a pin to a 5' bar which allowed them to pound on the pin with smacking the person holding the pin;
I watched a guy in Ireland using an oxygen lance to burn out a post for a rock crusher. The rods he was using were 9' long x 1.5" with 1/8" rods inside the rod.
It was hooked to a bank of 15/16 oxygen bottles. Unbelievable....
Longtime subscriber. Thanks for letting us see you and your co-worker deal with work in the "real world." Excellent content as always.
Much appreciated!
Tough job . Glad it turned out great... The owner must have a few cylinder hones he can use to clean that bore out... That was one stuck pin...
I love the 'more space for grease' comment!!! Funny as heck AND accurate too
Recently had a 90mm pin in an excavator bucket pin that a 25 ton wheel loader wouldn't budge. Snapon air hammer got it out. No comparison between jacking and air hammer. It never fails me. The shock action makes all the difference. It never budged with the biggest sledge and a hundred shots and came out in about 10 minutes with the air hammer.
Yea I've got an IR air hammer, its amazing what some vibration and shock will do for things. Always a good idea to smack a union before trying to separate it too. Love when hitting things works!
The air hammer is a good idea. What Snapon model do you use?
@@jheissjr After about 25 yrs it finally croaked and I didn't have time to repair it so I replaced it with an Astro pneumatic after spending time researching on line. It is the strongest air hammer on the market right now. It is a monster.
Asto upgraded the 498 to the new Thor 498. It looks even more powerful than the original.
Good tip
yet another example of how little I know ... I thoroughly enjoy your teachings, thanks
I had to do the same thing on one of the thoughts machines I was fortunate enough to have a 50-ton pin puller. Nice job
Isaac, you are one absolutely persistently tenacious man when it comes to getting the damn-near impossible accomplished for a customer. Also, you have got to be part bloodhound when it comes to finding your way to these worksites that are in the middle of nowhere.
The piece of wood under the base of the jack saves your base. Nice work, can't believe it was stuck that bad!
What amazed me was how difficult the progress was even after the pin had moved a significant amount. Usually, after a pin like that begins to move it will get easier and easier as there is less material still in contact along the bore. This one continued to be extremely problematic nearly all the way out. Good job sticking with it and completing this tough one! Nick, North West Farmer
I thought the same thing, " Ahh, its moving, itll come out, no problem" Boy was I wrong.
After doing this job do you think burning out a portion of the center of pin did anything? I am wondering if there would be a way to rapid cool pin (nitrogen spray) to shrink it diametrically. Seems your external heat and hydraulic jack were what made this a success. I would think you would have to burn nearly all the pin out before it would release from bore or create a hot bore and cold pin to be able to pound pin out with hammer.
Great video as always Isaac! What I learnt most from this video and also me always looking for ways to do something easier. If I ever need to do something like this I need to buy a pneumatic hammer of some kind and if I need to break out hydraulics I need to buy something where all I have to do is press a button.
you explain your procedures the best on UA-cam.
We used those setups at the steel mill I worked at. We called them oxygen lances. We used them for big shafts and large bearings that were seized.
At 41:58 you can see where the base metal bent under the pin from the forces of the jack on the welded-on bracket. Amazing display of shear power. Awesome video! Thank you!
Nice job Isaac and son! It’s great to see him following in your footsteps. Also good to see him indoctrinated into hard work. But you could’ve converted the jack to air over hydraulic. Lol
Thanks!
I have done this exact same job before and it sucks so I feel your pain
We use to use a bigger version of this to remove frozen pin. They were 1/2” pipes 8’ long and stuffed with wire. They had flared ends so you could stack them and would they move metal, as long as you could keep the oxygen to them, and they went through a lot of it. Sometimes you just have to report to extreme violence, judiciously applied.
Never used that burn rod, but we did use burn bars, or oxygen Lance's to cut through big press shafts that were ceased like that. Oxygen makes the cut go much quicker as the fuel is the shaft you are cutting out. Gets pretty hot! Nice video on how to stick with a stinking job. Not give up and show the boy how it gets done. He will remember this lesson as I have remembered all the problems and solutions taught to me when I listened to the skilled people I was fortunate enough to know.
That was stubborn pin ! Maybe a couple chunks of dry ice pushed inside the pin might have done some good. I dunno. Surprised you don't carry a Porta-Power around in the truck. Maybe a little easier than the big jack. Good to see your kid working with you !
Outstanding example of how a "simple" job can take days - customer has to understand that this stuff is not always easy. And how it takes experience to figure ways to get it done. Love this. Bring on the line bore!
Great video. Im wondering how much force that jack lost being in the horizontal postion. That pin was seized to the max.
I'm not sure but i think it's either getting oil or its not so basically all or nothing.
@@Lucas12v The way hydraulic bottle jacks i think i has a tube inside that moves the oil upward and drains it back down to a resevoir. Its more effiecent vertically. Port a powers can move the oil in any position, so the can be used horizontaly.
I will see if theres a video i can watch to verify. I always wanted a portapower but the were expensive for a good one.
played with a similar setup in extraction/extrication training for work.. but we had the rods, as well as a 50ft of steel hollow hose that we could just keep feeding until either it ran out of hose or the composite oxy tanks on the backpack ran out.. the composite triple tank backpack would run it for a while, and we could refill in about 10 minutes from a full sized O2 cylinder.... it would cut through a 3/16 cell door like butter... we started ours using steel wool taped to the end of the rod/tube, and striking a 9v battery...
Just a old man here. I got 50 years on one of those short handle BFH's, I got the shoulder rota tor cuff issues to prove it [ two surgeries, one PRP injection, just had stem cell & PRP Jan.4th, it has been impressive as to amount of healing]. Re watch your own video, focus on how high of a level your arm is to your shoulder and realize you are in an impingement state where you are exerting the greatest amount of stress on rotator cuff fibers creating maximum wear. Better yet show the video to a physical therapist!
For that situation pro active thinking would be to of raised the fork lift platform to where you are swinging the hammer more on the plain of a golf club. If you really want to listen to a old man develop a regular gym style work out program. Nolan Ryan pitched an outstanding long time due to a regimen of rotator cuff exercise. Do your self a favor, take the video to a physical therapist, take your son, he will suggest that you two start bonding working out at a gym. I think if you do you will see it as one of the wisest business/money making/ father son decisions you can make.
I have been really impressed with your presentations, you put the man in the word manhood. I posted my first UA-cam video a couple of days ago dealing with my new Miller Air Pack Bobcat and how to charge battries with old constant currant machines. I intend to do a video on the Astro [Big Nasty] air hammer and truck drag link replacement and ujoint replacement specifically for that tools ability to minimize rotator cuff wear. I am 76 I can still pop axles with a sledge.
Wow.... intensely stuck !!
Incredible determination !
Now that's what I call stubborn. Those rods really don't last long from the looks of it.
Typically hydraulic bottle jacks do not work laying down only in the vertical position... I have to say I think you got lucky with that 50 t Jack... I would have rented a porta power But I have done exactly the same thing you chose to do... Another fabulous job by the dynamic duo!!! With your son working with you by your side what a Blessing Sir!!! As always God-bless you and your family & all the newcomers and longtime viewers in this community 🪓🤠👍
I got the “Rusteaze” joke.
Wow, I've never seen that rod used before. I really get a lot out of your video's sir. From gouging to now this exothermic rod, very educational.
Thank you for sharing your work and great your partner is getting the education as well. Hat's off to both of you.
I had a job removing some 2 inch pins that were frozen in about 8 inches. A lance would have been nice, but I drilled holes through them and use a torch to melt out the rest. That was quite the ordeal
as oil filed mechanic worked with so many situation like this and worse, you are really brave, that jack is just just like landmine. what we usually do is just give it a good wd40 and no hammering so much that will ruin it , and with jack on for overnight , next morning you will find it out ,.sometimes believe me we find it ejected a distance from the machine.
anyway you get the job done
Had a similar job on a 375 ex. Lanced it and then drove it out with a demo hammer on a backhoe
I work on these things for a living and other material handling equipment (anything with a set of forks on it). Had to remove the same pin once to remove the boom out cylinder for a reseal. It took a mobile welder like you a day and a half to cut that sucker out using exo and prayers. Like you, he finished with welding a press fixture and pressing it out. I think that welder charged 1400.00 in labor and supplies to remove it. That was at our discount since we use him quite often. No easy way after they rust in. It is what it is.
