    Love your videos, Brian. When changing them flange bearings, you rotate the bearing in the housing to remove it. There are slots in the housing to remove them. And when you are installing any bearings, you want to hit on the part that is being pressed in. That way, you won't damage the bearing internally. So when you guys were using that claw hammer😅 use something to put on the inner race of the bearing to tap it on. Keep up the good work gentlemen..

    Stuff happens. I learned one thing, many years ago... If something breaks, it is only proof that you actually did something! And those red snouts WILL be the best comment generator you had since you revealed that you bought a Fendt combine. For the heck, throw a green snout on it too! That will stir up some feelings. Be safe out there and have a good one.❤

    Down corn tip: get a tiger torch, flame the plastic snouts…..meaning put heat to the surface just enough to make it shine. That makes it slick. THEN, armor all them good. Those two things will help the stalks slide.

    There are days when the pessimist's motto kicks in: "Life sucks then you die". Been there, that's when you take one step at a time and just keep moving. As to the auger shaft , a tip I learned way back when is to take a rattle can and coat the exposed portions of the shaft. It is a lot easier to emery cloth the paint off later then deal with the rust.
