The fact that DP and NYA trust you to repair that lift shows the measure of respect they have for you. They may not admit it but they know you have skills and figure things out.
Well it was either that or pay someone 🤣🤣

😂😂😂😂😂
Whats scarier is that the mechanics who repair these have zero mechanic experience... ask me how i know.
Captain Kleeman, Fireman, truck driver, heavy equipment operator, mechanic, creator and best of all a good family man. 60 min ref is so funny.
Is there anything The Captain can’t do ? NO ! This man is a serious grafting genius ! I have so much respect for your knowledge and abilities Mike, if I could employ you I would in a heartbeat ( I guarantee you’re better at everything than even you realise ) ! Keep doing what you do and being you , your channel is my number one favourite 👍Still can’t believe you have less than at least a million subscribers, you thoroughly deserve so much more and by far the nicest/funniest/non egotistical/hardworking/resourceful/competent/trustworthy/honourable/most decent person I know of 👍 Best wishes to you and your family, from Britain 👍🇺🇸🇬🇧
Thank you for the kind words!
Very well said. I agree with you 100% and I think many many many of his viewers also.
Cap’n, you add a whole ‘nuther meaning to “stranger on the internet”.
A most entertaining fix-it some how excursion. Thanx bud!
Thanks Dave! Hope all is well with ya!
@@CaptainKleeman I’m doing well, you’re welcome.
You're personality is addicting, love your narrative just such a down to earth and real guy with no attitude or anything to prove. Just being yourself. Love your humor.
Thanks!
Well, I’d have to say thanks for the effort. Of recording, editing posting. We appreciate what it takes for you to bring good content to us Captain. That’s why we’re here.
I am just saying that these tools would make your job so much easier .
$eww
You are so entertaining and good at shade tree mechanics
Thanks!
"I'm just a guy tryin' to survive"
That should have been printed on the back of your t-shirt😊😊😊
💪
Your obvious excitement over framing the yacht is infectious
The breadth of your abilities constantly amazes me Kleeman! Especially with your level of homespun humility and humor. You probably have a great repertoire of Dad Jokes I'd wager !
I'll say one thing MIke you sure have no fear when it comes to tearing into something new! Great vid bud thanks for your efforts
Good on you for having a go at it .
The only thing that I would do is to get DP to sign off the repairs,I would check public liability cover ,this is a machine that may be used by third parties and since it involves lifting people into the air above the standard safe zone .
Something to take seriously,as one can't say "it will be fine "
I would probably clamp the long Ram housing to a bench with timber blocks along it's length, eliminate any chance of damage to the cylinder.
When disassembling parts,try to have a container set aside so the old part stay separated from the new parts , especially with o-rings .
Think and work like an aircraft engineer is a good work ethic ,and all this is only suggestion,not saying you did it wrong .
Best part was seeing work being done in the DP workshop and in most it was a peaceful moment,your ear wasn't getting chewed or teased by someone lol.
Let's hope the machine gets checked over ,full service and that Ram that is slightly leaking ,gets repaired sooner than later ,again it's lifting people .
Having the collective wisdom to let a sleeping dog lie with that stuck cylinder pin.........is the kind of knowledge that usually has a great story to go along with it.....😅😅😅
Well Mike, there may be better ways to do cylinders but it just wouldn't be the same. lol I like your way and they didn't leak. Job well done. Keep Smilin and keep doin things your way....
Captain, Matt, MBTS and DP always have something cool in the works...like a sneak peek
of a Hyundai tracked skid steer in the background (by accident or a tease ?)😅
You're teaching me, someone who will never have a seal to change and won't remember how to should the opportunity ever arise but I have truly enjoyed watching you get to do this.❤
Appreciate ya watching
Going down a slippery slope and no leaks, they owe you money now Captain!!😂👍🇺🇸
You approached it in a logical manner and got the results desired. So, you did fine.
You are a genius... Do not know how you are able to figure all of this stuff out and make it work without injuring yourself.
Nothing pouring out at the end!! She's mint Bud! 🚢⚓️
💪
You have such a sweet way of saying thanks but no thanks, I’m still gonna do it the way I want to anyway. I have been in the repair industry for 45 plus years and it still comes down to, do it the way the circumstances allow you to do it, but be sure it functions the way it is suppose to, safely, which you accomplish young man. Thanks for another great video.
Thanks for watching!
Massive props for a job that was well done. 😅
I call that job a big big win for you 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
That long one was like shutting the gate after the horse has bolted 😆 🤣 😂 😹 your meant to put the bucket there before u pull it out 😆 🤣 😂 😹
🤣
Hello Mike. You always say, in this type of video, that you are not a mechanic OR this is not a How-To video, but you always get the job done and things work as expected. If you clean out your truck, you will need what you took out. I once took a trip around the country in a 1981 Honda Civic Hatchback and pulled an eight-foot trailer. I took everything I thought I might need just in case I needed it. It was about 10,000 miles in two weeks with the final 2,000 miles in two days. (You may be thinking, A person cannot do that. I did not sleep those two days and only ate when I got gas.) Have good days!
Nice long episode Captain.
I'm sure Mike appreciated you getting those cylinders rebuit so he could work on other equipment or contract work.
Just a bit of advice.
I've rebuild hydrolic cylinders back when I was in charge of Coast Guard Airstation Miami's ground support shop.
My CPO I worked under taught me to alway put a light coating of seal lube on the piston inner seals as the inside/first seal that slides on the shaft wipes the oil off so there's no lubrication for the piston inner and end seals.
It only takes a speck of dust ot dirt to damage those seals as you're sliding the piston on.
One thing I learned early on when I was originally stationed at Coast Guard Airstation Traverse City Michigan and assigned to the fixed wing shop (Grumman HU16e Albatross seaplanes) as a Flight Mechanic was to listen carefully to the old guys senior to me when they were explaining what and why I was doing maintenance on equipment.
I also learned right away cleaning the Shop CPO's coffee mug was a really numbnuts action.
He seriously wasn't happy.
Got stuck chipping ice from the huge 2 ton WW II hanger doors for two months.
That was usually done by non-rated personnel.had to be at the hanger 5 am to do it and there was 4 doors, 2 per side of the hanger.
Never did that again.
It’s funny usually Fire Fighters know how to break things not repair things! 😂😂😂😂👍👍😎😎
UA-camr "FarmCraft101" did a complete rebuild of an 80' JLG. Man was that an undertaking. You are a brave soul!
You did good. Just remember... the right way is the way that works best for you. No leaks. You did great. Thanks for another great video.
Thanks 👍
"You can't help people if you don't have a bed full of random stuff." How profound. Thanks for the philosophy lesson!
💪
Captain K ,Like the video and it was a joy to Watch .
Can’t wait to see the yacht project getting underway again.
You are so funny with your dry wit! Enjoy your channel as much as any! Thank you keep it up.
Thank you! Will do!
I always chuckle when you start with your "disclaimers". I don't read too many of the comments to your vids. But, boy - o - boy, you must sure get some doozy comments based on your disclaimer!! Love ya Man!!
It always surprises me lol thanks for watching
great video Mike,you do realize that there is 3 ways to do things 1- a good way,2- a bad way, 3-your way and your way seems to work just fine for you,thanks for sharing 👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍👌👌👌👌👌
Lol. “…kinda keeps you from meeting the ground quicker than you want to.”
I like that you left the board “stone processing station” on the lift for others to use…so thoughtful !
Very considerate
We saw a lot of the UA-camr’s were walking around with boxes just like that tumbler box at the Perry County Fair meet and greet. We did buy a tumbler but we did stop by the Derby Market and prepaid for some ice cream for a fella’s family and some treats for a pup named Charlotte.
I enjoy working on equipment, at my leisure... Wouldn't be able to do it as a career! Less than a year ago, I was helping out a friend and worked on a few pieces of his equipment! I ended up buying a large set of Sunex metric wrenches and a complete set of deep 1/2" milwaukee sockets. The only reason I went with them was because they didn't skip any sizes. They stay in my truckbox for that exact reason, when you need the right one, it's there. They have saved me so many times
So surprised you documented using a polish socket set!!
You're just a guy trying to survive these UA-cam streets !!! 😂 Great job Captain 💪
💪
Hi Mike. I think half the battle with mechanic work is setting your mind to doing it. Once you've decided you're ready to tackle that job it either goes smooth or not and you learn something. You might learn that you just lost some tiny, irreplaceable part which launched itself into some deep dark corner but that almost never happens, right? Nice job on the cylinders. The barter system works pretty well. Nice to not have to pay out of pocket to use equipment you need but don't have. Thanks for the video!
-mike
Appreciate ya watching
Many years ago a very wise elderly gentleman told/taught me never to turn down the advice of others because they just might know something that you will be able to use now or in the future. When I asked him how do you know if the advice given was good to wit he replied that is up to you to determine but it never hurts you to take the time to listen because while the advice you have determined not to be helpful still might have a lesson to be learned.
Case in point the good Captain told people that he doesn’t need people to give advice in the comment section but isn’t an active comment section part of the UA-cam analytics measurement strategy/standards? Therefore him telling viewers he doesn’t need people’s advice is telling people don’t bother to comment which in turn can/will hurt his channel
🤣🤣🤣
See, there's the confusion, it's not an advice section. 🤣 thanks for watching
looky there a hyundai skidsteer teaser i cant wait to see that in 6 months over on the history channel lol
Your outro's might just be my favorite part of the video :)
Lol now wait a minute
@@CaptainKleeman lol, ok... THAT's not how I meant it! I mean, I literally watch to then end, and the video always ends with me laughing at the creative rambling. Keep up the good work!
Hey Mike,
When they say this is the way you should do it; just turn around and show them the back of your shirt “ I do what I want to” 😂
💪
Its noce watching people's videos and seeing stuff that DP has on hand we haven't seen yet. The work you do, ill probably never do. Im here mainly for the hilariousness of it all. I like the cat came in the shop comment!
It’s so good to see you Captain
Hey Cap. I'm not thinking you have a lot of time for watching your tube, but I would point you to Cutting Edge Engineering. He is a guy in Australia who works on the big mining equipment. Does a lot of rods. Very good channel. But you and I are much alike in the whole getting it done cause it needs doing. Afterwords do we find a better way to get it done, more then likely, but we get it done.
Have to pay attention or people willl miss some of the funniest, unscripted moments in your videos.
For example, what was in the end of that hammer? And why was it even there? Your face and reaction was the best. Still laughing.
Nice job Mike. Always fun, so to speak to take on a project for the first time. The good new, you will probably not have to do this project again. Thanks for sharing.
💪
I don’t know how but Your optimism gives me hope and encouragement. Thanks for being your self. Your video's are an inspiration.
💪
You shouldn't have been so good at rebuilding your 555, I think DP saw you doing that and thought I know a good man for dealing with my seals. 🤗👍 Like your ethos about not clearing out your truck, my car boot and trailer are exactly the same. 😂
Are you sure it is a JLG 450 AJ ? 🤔 Asking for a friend.... 👀
Good explanation of cylinder locks, who wants to meet the ground quick anyway? 🤷♂️
You didn't have too much of a fight with the nuts, adjustable worked a treat !!
You didn't spoll too much oil, Aaron's voice told a different story 😂
All in all, not a bad trade for use of the cherrypicker 💪💪💪😁
Pretty sure lol
Great Video Mike, Hey, Dirt Perfect used one of those 3 finger seal installers on the Jake Brake rebuild on the Mack. I think that's where he introduced the tool. SOOOoooo.... Yep, he did have one at one time. I liked the reason you wouldn't give out the torque spec. I laughed out loud on that one. Have a great day.
I asked, he said he didn't lol
"Well you see, a cat got in here....."
🤣
Great job Mike,with you doing the maintenance we know it will be done right.maybe.LOL.just continue on doing what your doing.great little video.always entertaining.D.P. Should be happy.👍👍👍😎😎😎👨🚒👨🚒👨🚒
That inner seal Tool isn't that costly and of course good ole Amazon sells them. Sure makes resealing cylinders ablot easier. I had to reseal a 10' long cylinder on my old Rollback and it was sooo much fun 😊.. Loved the content, video.
Another episode of making it up as you go along and run watcha brung! I think its great to be able to adapt and overcome and actually get things done in a way that it works when you finish. Great job and I'm looking forward to the next episode of "Run Watcha Brung."
Mike , there’s never a worry about if you fix things rite, you are so good at what you do, that we never worry if it’s done rite, another great Mike 👍👍😎😎🍮🍮
Thanks!
Yah when DP put wheels on that bench I made a comment about that same issue , unless you can raise the wheels you have eliminated half of the uses of the bench .
Nothing wrong with being Kleemanistic!
Opportunity meets a successful attitude!
Thanks for another awesome video Captain.
DP and NYA will be happy little campers now.
Ready for NYA to take to his castle.
From kiwi land.
Thank you Mike for bringing us along on another very non-educal video, as just an average man I appreciate your down to earth way of doing things, I remember my fathers saying of Jack of all trades, Master of none, and maybe that is what they mean now a days with multi tasking, appears we were ahead of our time, so thank you again you made an old man happy.
You are jack of all well done good deal 👍👋🇨🇦
Though I don't EVER plan on replacing cylinder seals on ANYTHING I found this video informative AND entertaining!
I always pick up a tip or two from you whether it is something I put to use or not!
Great job Captain!!!
Hey thats great! Thanks for watching
Good job Captain 👍
My hats off to ya! I hate working on seals!
Congrats Mike, on getting the cylinders-off and new seals and put-back on. what are u going to use the limestones for?
I guess we will be seeing the Hyundai skid steer on DP's channel in ~5-6 months.
You always get sneak peeks of whats coming up on your channel.
LOL,,,,,,
You do how you want to do.everyone has there own way of doing things. Awesome job and video. Denis from Santa Rosa CA.
I've rebuilt plenty of cylinders in my years of wrenching. The best advice I can give you for the next ones you do, soak the new seals in warm oil or warm water. It makes them more pliable and easier to install. Thanks again for the great content. Keep working!
Yup! Definitely makes a difference
I see somebody has another Skid-Steer he must be trying out
We need to get you to 100K subscribers. Thanks for the video.
Thank you
Awesome work Came in for a quick coffee Lots to do before another rainy weekend most of the summer has been that way. Ok of to staining I go. Glad you sealed the deal LOL😆 See you on the next one. 🤠
Great video, enjoy watching !
Well done. Great to have helpers, when you needed them. Mission accomplished. Looking forward to future videos.
Great job.
Thanks!
Hi Mike, London calling… hoping you have a great day.
Surprised percussive persuasion was not what that pin wanted
Farmcraft 101 , just changed the seals on his, good video series to watch, his is a bigger unit but there plenty of stuff there to learn from.
Thanks for the video. I have a 450a that's leaking somewhere in the boom, so I appreciate a view into what I might come up against. You already have the wheels turning on a pin press to deal with stuck pins.
The manlift of death 😮 seen NYAM have a scare or 3.
Love your enythusiasm i would be calling it every name under the sun lol
🤣
Great vid Mike! Your great humour carries it through!! Jerry..UK.
It’s been a Pleasure as Always Sir, you will Definitely See Me on the next One Lord Willing! Until then, Keep It Safe Out There Sir
Torque specs you didn't care to divulge: gooten tite
"Ran when bought" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
There is not many people that would try and May I say succeed in the things you do but hats off to you bud for the can do attitude. You will go far in life just keep it up . 👍🏻 37:55
A tip with hard / smaller seals put them in water and get them warm/ hot. Don’t remember seeing it in any of your videos . Great video as always 👍
I ran them under hot water, but I bet soaking them would help me out. Maybe a crock pot
Hey Cap!! If you had a way to apply vacuum to the hydraulic system would help get the air out. Like when DP and Clint added the rear hydraulics to the 850J. Great job as always.
I really enjoy the sarcomentary! Spot on don’t ya know!
Capt, if you were ever to star in the Charlie Brown TV series, you would definately play the part of Pig Pen, :)
Your welcome, enjoyed the video. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😎😎👍😎
Way to figure it out 🎉
I’m thinking that the difference in part numbers occurred in 2006 when Oshkosh acquired JLG after the passing of John L. Grove in 2003.
John was the co-founder of a large crane company. 🤔🤔 I wonder which one that was?
Great job on editing that video, it was so well done, I can even smell hydraulic fluid. (Or maybe I got some on my shirt today.) Thanks for the entertainment, take care!
Lol
Just love the way you go about thing's, keep up the good work !
Thanks!
hello mike it's is randy and i like yours video is cool thanks mike friends randy
Thanks Randy
