The "extra" oval o-ring looks like it's supposed to go under the front cover of the pilot pump. You can see the groove and the corresponding mark where it sits.
I am a 79 year old retired truck fleet and equipment maintenance manager. I have the highest respect for you, your problem solving abilities, your mechanical skills and your "I can do it" attitude!
They where called trade magazines and came out on a regular schedule. Plus there was the old fixed line phone to "phone a friend". But yes much easier to get information these days, both good and bad.
Funny story: We decided to raise chickens and had a dog that loved to play fetch. We let the chicks free range. My dad was working on the car one day, and the dog wanted to play fetch. She would drop her ball at his feet, and he would mindlessly pick it up and wing it for her. Well, a chick roamed into the area as the dog dropped her ball. My dad reached down and picked up the chick and threw it, and after he released the throw, he realized it wasn't the ball. 😂 The dog ran after the chick and very gently caught it mid-air before it could hit the ground, carrying it back and placing it before my dad. Unharmed. He never threw the ball without looking at it after that.
Congratulations! That was a major accomplishment and a very intricate. I spent 30 years supervising an aviation rebuild facility for the military including an hydraulic shop that did major rebuilds. It takes a very skilled person to do what you've done!
You have put more quality time in the rebuild than any shop would ever do. When all is done you will know you have done a perfect rebuild like you did on the dozer.
One of the most important things is cleanliness. I ran a aircraft hyd shop for 17 years. If you keep it clean and follow the technical data it is like any other job. Use brass seal picks and stay away from scratches. I have used jewelers rouge to polish and lap.
@19:24 - It's cool to watch a thing get rebuilt with decent-ish parts and extreme attention to detail. There are a lot of "fix it cheap" channels, which, for the record, I like too, but your method is also most satisfying.
I've worked along side a lot of "pros" who did things like fill a brand new Gardner Denver screw compressor with oil using an improvised funnel from a scrap of cardboard that was lying on the floor. Or use the hydraulic oil drum pump to pump out a caustic soda tank and then put it right back in the hydraulic oil drum. Be glad you're an amateur.
I'm just so impressed by what you do and your patience with things - good grief! I sit glued to the computer the full length of the video every time you post. Keep going!
I rebuilt one of these pump after attending you tube university. It turned out great except the people didn't want to spend money on new parts. Got to back together and it worked great but i told them no garentees. It is still working, never got paid.😢
I can't imagine how hard this was and you have my admiration for taking on the task! Side Note: If you can get the Duckling to play ball with Charlie, you'll save about an hour a day! 🦆🦆🐈⬛🐈⬛🏀🥎
"It's not that complicated, you just need to spend a lot of time with it" My man, that was over 50 pieces (I'm not counting) mounted in easily over a 150 steps (really not counting), with several torque and quality checks (seriously, I refuse to count) that you disassembled, cleaned, resurfaced, rematched, replaced and reassembled. Seriously, I love the humility, but that's the DEFINITION of complicated.
Noticed the bright red squirt can, 👍! Makes sense with the price of brake cleaner, and you know beforehand when you are getting low. Everything seems to take longer when you aren’t working at a full time shop, I’m a past tense professional and working at home and don’t have specialized tools for seemingly small simple projects everything seems like it takes four times longer than when I was punching the clock. But now I’m allergic to clocks😂. Great to see the progress on a very complicated series 😊.
From a grandfather's point of view a tree house build for your kids is a hight priority. We your audience, will be long gone but your children will have the memory of the tree house build for ever.
Was on the look out for this episode almost on a daily basis and finally got the chance to enjoy every bit of it Also pls make a video on your tree house build for the kids 😂 surely it'll be a good offbeat video
Actually I wouldn't mind seeing the tree house build too. I am curious to see how it turns out. It's nice to see you are approaching 100k subscribers too. I'd like to see you hit 100, your videos are very interesting to watch.
My father replaced my small and perhaps sketchy treehouse with a huge thing that I hated. Many years later I spent a very pleasant afternoon tearing it down and hauling it to our trash pile.
Please allow me to join the legion of people who seek out your videos where we can watch a man with a great array of skills and knowledge, help together by exceptional patience and attention to detail!! I eagerly await the Tree House project and whatever special touches you will include.
You have accomplished a most excellent reassembly/rebuild on the pump, your patience is commendable, it is a pleasure to watch your videos and enjoying the entire process. Nice to see Charlie and the duckling in the video, fun stuff. Thanks for the update.
Does anyone else hit the like button before they have watched the video, im liking the other vidoes too the rolls royce engine was a great vid too that lathe looks interesting
You’re really getting into this unit deep. Oh, to test rotational force of bearings please use a dial type torque wrench, not a “click” type, much more accurate Good job
Thanks Matt great vid. Be sure to prime pump with oil before starting. Thanks Josh for the help. MATT keep diong what your doing. Looking forward to more vids. Lathe and tree house should be cool.
You could take a whole summer off and play with the kids. I love this content and see how much devotion that is done to make a video of this level. I probably worded this badly but in my heart mean to say, you are on a high level of doing this kind of work. I have mentioned before that I was a mechanic till I see this kind of work done. over thirty years in diesel and heavy equipment repairs, fab work and I do tip my hat to you sir!
And here I thought I was ridiculously OCD when I was working on Coast Guard Aircraft I was flying on as a Flight Mechanic. Matt makes me look positively sloppy. He's definitely a pro leve Mechanic as far as I'm concerned.
Great to see you again, Matt! Always waiting to see you rebuild your hitachi excavator brother! Awesome job so far brother! I’m not a mechanic either but you’re doing an amazing job my friend! Always looking forward to watching you work! 👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Great job Matt. Thanks for sharing. Cannot wait to see you cleaning the rest of the machine up and getting it painted. The two screws near the end, that you did not know what they were. They might be screws to tighten up the shaft that they are on. Thank again.
These videos you put out are so enjoyable to watch! So detailed and full of information. Your approach to things is very insightful. Thank you for keeping up all the work on this! Would love to see the treehouse build if you felt inclined to film it! And the lathe project!
Man! This has been one hell of a job, still a lot to do. Especially all the hoses and wiring. I think this one will top the dozer. Keep up the great work bud.
*- Matt, I am so glad for you. The supper support coming to you is so well deserve and is the kind of corporation that this world needs.* *- I am impressed all around for so many reasons...AND, gosh do you have a good memory.*
Awesome effort, that took a big effort to get a big result, really well done, another part checked off the list. Well done to viewers who left very observant comments towards the rebuild, much appreciated for sure
your maticulous attention to detail and willingness to do it right or as right as it can be is admirable and keeps me coming back, cant wait for the next vid, thanks for the content buddy!
Thank you Matt, sharing your work will be saved for family, friends and us. I find watching again down the road, is like 1st time when done great like you do, eh?
Very nice job on the pump. I hope we get to see some lathe videos and you building a treehouse would be interesting with your approach to getting the job done. Thanks Matt
Amazing job Matt, that sucker is complicated,,,, looking forward to the treehouse for your kids, ive got great memories of ours in the 50’s, tons of fun with many over nighters!, looking forward to the lathe too,,,,
Well, for amateurs it could be a daunting task.....not for you though because you are no amateur....great teacher, great presentations. Thanks for sharing.
Good morning Matt, the extra 'O' ring definitely goes under the front cover of the pilot pump. Don't worry about how we had to wait for this video as it was worth the wait. Looking forward to a video on the lathe and please please please. When you have got it put together make sure the chuck key is hung up before the machine is turned on! I witnessed a lathe getting turned on with the chuck key still in the chuck. Lucky it missed anyone in the room but the wall was not so lucky as the key embedded itself into!! Ps. How about a video on a treehouse build too?
When you were putting the pilot pump together, I did not see you install the oval outside O-ring on the front cover. You also had a left over oval o-ring when installing the back cover. You might want to verify of review you video footage. I hope I am wrong.
I did cringe a bit when you took that primary pump apart because I’ve learned from experience that they can go back together a dozen different ways but only one way works.
i like how obsessed you are about cleanliness but i wouldn't worry to much. i watched the Pakistany mechanics rebuild and overhaul engines, transmissions among other things right on the dirt and everything works ok after there done ! LOL !!!!!!!
The "extra" oval o-ring looks like it's supposed to go under the front cover of the pilot pump. You can see the groove and the corresponding mark where it sits.
Yup, I missed that...good catch
Gonna c0mment that. Was late.

Great work Matt, keep them coming!
Really nice work and great video.
also missing another o-ring , can see it in the old video , 25 minutes in the old video

That duckling was unexpected and funny.
gooseling ?
Hahaha and it’s on the cleaner bottle
@@tinygriffy I guess you are right, I am not a native English speaker
@@jazko pah.. details ^^
A veritable disney princess over here
Before Internet days, there was a lot of information not shared!
Thank you Josh!!
They where called trade magazines and came out on a regular schedule. Plus there was the old fixed line phone to "phone a friend". But yes much easier to get information these days, both good and bad.
Nice job! I would love to see a video on that lathe!
Charlie, a duckling, an impressive hydraulic pump rebuild, and finally a possible tree house build? Be still my heart! Yay!
The ability to pick an expert’s brain for the better part of an hour is so invaluable when wading into a new area
Funny story:
We decided to raise chickens and had a dog that loved to play fetch. We let the chicks free range. My dad was working on the car one day, and the dog wanted to play fetch. She would drop her ball at his feet, and he would mindlessly pick it up and wing it for her.

Hopefully you can do some tree house videos! I like your style and ingenuity when working Matt!
Congratulations! That was a major accomplishment and a very intricate. I spent 30 years supervising an aviation rebuild facility for the military including an hydraulic shop that did major rebuilds. It takes a very skilled person to do what you've done!
Not wrong, so many things that could go wrong or pop out of their position. would drive me spare.
*- Thanks for such authoritative encouragement...I think it is well deserved.*
I’ve watched many videos of people rebuilding engines, pumps, farm equipment..
Your’s is the first one with a baby duck
You have put more quality time in the rebuild than any shop would ever do. When all is done you will know you have done a perfect rebuild like you did on the dozer.
You're a natural, keep doing what you do

just wait till I add in a transfer case to drive the pump
@@PacificNorthwestHillbilly As long as there are needle valves involved.
It's cinema time again! :)
Great to see your new video come up, thank you for letting us into your workshop!

He takes pride in his work! That pride is missing today as most people want to slap it together and send it out the door!
because no one will pay for quality. sad but true.

For a rookie, you are showing great ability and your willingness to work hard cannot be questioned.
Your attention to detail is amazing!! Thank for sharing
I appreciate your no nonsense videos, keep doing what you’re doing.

Loved the little duckling he's so cute
You do such a great job with your parts. You clean them up and put it together looks great.
I imagine filming a tree house built might be a pain to watch but I woud be down to watch
Always looking for the next one. Thanks.

CRC gasket remover (spray) is a very effective paint stripper. Get mine a O'Reilly's
Whoever designed and engineered these these things are amazing. Crazy it all works when I think about all the parts.
WTG MATT, ANOTHER EXCELLENT JOB, YOU HAVE PATIENTS AND GREAT TENACITY TO GET THE JOB DONE AND TO DO IT RIGHT!
Build a tree house WITH your kids, not FOR your kids, they will love it way better if they participate, take it from me!
My father replaced my small and perhaps sketchy treehouse with a huge thing that I hated. Many years later I spent a very pleasant afternoon tearing it down and hauling it to our trash pile.

Tree house is your priority mate, kids having fun is always the number 1 priority 👍🏻
Very nice looking lathe. Looking forward to seeing it in action.
Well done Matt, thanks for sharing your restoration with us.
Definitely a video on the lathe and treehouse. Great job on the pump, looks top notch!
You do amazing work, Matt! And the duck didn't seem bothered by you or Charlie. Nice touch!
You have accomplished a most excellent reassembly/rebuild on the pump, your patience is commendable, it is a pleasure to watch your videos and enjoying the entire process. Nice to see Charlie and the duckling in the video, fun stuff. Thanks for the update.

Ooooh that magnet stick trick! That is totally something I would have tried as well!
you must have the cleanest machine in world well done
As always, a thousand times more interesting than any Hollywood bs "blockbuster"
Cool, looking forward to the treehouse build.
Great job! I now understand why the charges for rebuilding a hydraulic pump are so high.
Y haya vamos,siiiii sabado de maquinaria

That lathe is gonna be a fun project. My dad got one like it 40 years ago and had to make a set of change gears for it. Hope you got them with yours.
