Getting Fiat-Allis 545B
Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 тра 2018
- I must give a shout out to Mr. Towman for hooking me up with this sweetdeal on a Fiat-Allis 545B Wheel Loader. It was abandoned and the new property owner was looking to 'liquidate' it. I put in new batteries and changed the fuel filter. It turned right over with the new batteries. But, my Pop squirted some ether in there and locked it up. After several bumps to free it up and a recharge of the batteries, it fired right up. I did pump up the one tire that was flat, but it didn't hold air. We've had a lot of rain recently, so the tire shop couldn't replace the tire where it was. So, I hauled it into their shop for a new tire (or maybe three...)

Your a smart man for not revving the life out of it after sitting for a while, that's the golden rule, always let it really warm up & get the motor set to run properly & the testing of the hydraulics in a methodical fashion, u got a great deal on this unit, it purrs & didn't require much to kick it over..love saving old iron, they work the best.
The man is all business. A little luck and a lot of Talent. Looking forward to more videos Good Luck
dang i can't believe that front loader would move after sitting there for so long Grate JOB on getting it out of there
My hat is off to anyone who will save equipment that is not be beyond it's prime. I enjoy your videos.
Jesse Cordell thanks!
@@johndowe7003 Interesting mental image...
Try Andrew Camatara channel. fixing old gear is his whole life!
@@andrewsobek2386 i watch his stuff. I got some videos as well but i lost my tripod :(
YES I AGREE.
Nice find I love Allis Chalmers and Fiat Allis equipment. My dad ran an Allis Chalmers 840 loader he loved it then the city deprecated it out in 1993
Any heavy equipment service business that's even slightly competent would quite easily be able to repair that flat tire where it sat behind the house.
If they looked at that repair job and decided they couldn't do it because the ground was soft from recent rain as was said in the description, then they don't belong in the equipment service business. That type of service, in less than ideal conditions, is the bread and butter of the industry.
I'm betting that there were other reason for not doing the repair on site.
What a sweet ole find and rescue!! 👍
That is great you got it cranked up and going hopefully you get the grader going with as much ease maybe when work slows down this winter I can come out and play with them
We’ll see! I’ll try to get my 941 over there this weekend and pull it out.
It's all about............................. the pause. Good find man. Glad someone's rescuing that loader
@Lewie McNeely.The army had the Allis-Chalmers 645M's,the military versions.I operated these machines in Vietnam 1970-71.They were very good machines.I really liked them.Although they wasn't equipped with cabs nor any ROPS.They were a big improvement over the Hough H90CM loaders which had rear wheel steering.And they were more maneuverable.They were faster too.
I TIP MY HAT FOR SUCH A FIND YOU WHERE REALLY BLESSED WITH THAT ONE AND GOOD LUCK .
John Doe thanks!
I ran a fiat-allis loader very similar to the one you pulled out of the trees down in FL around 2006
I can’t believe I just now found this channel! New subscriber
Gliderider It’s never too late...lol. Welcome and thanks for subscribing!
I thought I saw a hard surface area (driveway) next to where you drove the machine out. Not much of a tire shop if they couldn't do the work there. It looks like you ended up damaging a good tire in the process.
Great find on your part!! Both pieces!
They were too tired.
Maybe because it's a split rim they need to put it in a cage to air it up.
Im pretty sure they could have fixed it by that house where it was sitting also, Sounds to me like they wanted him to tear the tire up with all the moving around ,so they could sell him a tire also.
Thanks for sharing this video, liked it very much. I see the arm chair guys are giving advice!! lol
John Erway lol..., yeah, you can always count on them to come through with a comment or two!
@RJ 1999 The military specs the machines with a lower lifting ratings for safety reasons.But they the will actually lift more weight than the military specs are.During desert storm,I operated one of the army's DV43 rough terrain container handler spec'd as a 50,000 lb lifting capacity.An army civilian employee told that they'd tested them and they lifted 80,000 lbs.I do know that they lifted a lot more their spec'd lifting capacity.The machine is Caterpillar 988B wheel loader with a vertical boom and extra counter-weights on both sides at the rear of the machine.
I put thousands of hours loading trucks and pushing snow. Glad I had an enclosed cab. With chains that thing would go almost anywhere in the snow.
It must be good for the countryside that you go and rescue these pieces of machinery rather than just letting them rot a pollute where they stand. Hope you make $$$ from all your hard work.
Good work Bro...Nice save on a good piece of equipment.
926Trucker thanks!
If a tire store can't come out to fix a tire, find a different one. Loader tires cost too much to destroy
I'm always puzzled by why people just leave equiptment laying around.
probably they don t want to pay the bank loans with those equipments....
One mans trash anothers treasures. U got a score on them.
Wilson Bobcat service most definitely! Both are well worth the ‘small’ price and effort
I've been watching your videos for a while now. Love the old Ford Wrecker and I like they way you work. No muss, no fuss just getting it done. Keep up the good work and more of the wrecker!
Bruce Collins the wrecker has been sitting awhile, but I’ll get it back on the road soon! Thanks!
Love the way you just walked in the woods and save that old girl !
this is a fun learning vidEO.
I like that loader.
Great job 👌😎
thanks for sharing
I hope you checked all the fluid before operating
I guess that's your idea of a video I was watching you letting that bucket go up and down up and down that's really really good
One place I worked the boss called a tire repair service out to fix a tire on the old fork lift we used, said that I had more emportant things to do, ended up having to fix the tire ourselves after thetire man ruined the tube in the tire and then 2 new tubes
Nice tractor you have 😁 wish I had one sounds and runs good to been sitting
@RJ 1999 You Google US Army's DV43 rough terrain container handler and you will get pictures of the machines.
I know where two dump truck are. But they want $80,000.00 for both of them. We go to buy them. They have started back their asphalt business after being out of the business for 20 years
With that front tire flat and needing an o ring to seal it back off ..you should have dropped the bucket and moved it in reverse to keep from ruining that tire...but since new tires were put on it i guess it didnt matter lol
Nothing a can of Fix-A-Flat wouldn't take care of.
Thank you good job
The Ford New Holland dealership I worked at a half century ago sold Fiat Allis equipment, they really weren't bad machines. Their downfall was parts availability and frequent replacement parts design changes.
i really like all a/c,Fiat/Allis stuff. The Army might had those that size but I've run bigger anhd smaller and they were all tough and strong. You'll like it and the T-500!
Looking for a bellhousing for Allis Chalmers 940 wheel loader when a 2900 engine would you know where I can find a heavy equipment dealer that may have one thank you
@@billjunking_fool5549 Not right off but a junk yard or equipment salvage outfit might.
If you like fiat allis you must have heard of fiatagri. Made great tractors. So good they came out with a limited edition model.
@@ferguson20diesel49 I haven't but I was in the grading part of it but if they made it, it was a dandy to be sure and too much power for the unwary!
Lewie McNeely absolutely great machines. Unfortunately out of production too. The limited edition model goes for huge money at auctions here. Fiatallis didn’t take off here. Only a few odd ball excavators knocking around.
They couldn't repair the tire out in the field but yet they have a service truck that is set up for field work? lol
Love the old iron glad you were able to acquire it so it doesn't sit and rust away.
Thumbs up.
Shakes 73 yeah, but it worked out ok. It was far cheaper to take it to their shop than to have them repair it in the field.
Nice score
Can u explain to me why u didn't lift the front tires of the ground an move the machine in reverse... that way the bucket just kinda back drags n make no damage....
nice job thnks
Kudos sir for saving an old workhorse!
wow nice
That was a steel!
instead of moving the loader forward go in reverse with the loader bucket down and lifting the front end up.
yes take the weight off the front tire and go in reverse.
Just found this channel as well. Gained another new subscriber.
Joseph Johnson welcome! Thanks for subscribing
he gaind another dislike from me....
i hope you get a poor motorgrader too🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
What did you end up getting it for? I love finding cheap equipment. Nice work!
I paid $3k for both machines
Funny thing is do some work on it and clean her up. And its a $10,000 Piece of equipment again. Did you get the Gallion Motor Grader out of there to.
dougslittlediesel yes, I got the T-500 out of there. And, got it running too. Now, I just need to replace all the hydraulic lines to get the galion operational
How long did this thing sit? Started that easy, you expect me 2 blive that crap. No prep after urs of sitting, no filters attended or changed no sample of the garbage fuel no oil change. Nothin? I cant belive the battries had been ok enough to just crank right up riight.
Clearly you didn’t read my intro. I put in new batteries, changed the fuel, and added new fuel. I don’t know if these machines had been there 10 weeks, 10 months, or 10 years. But, I can tell you they had been sitting more than 10 days...
@@HammaDownEnterprises ok it would have been nice to view some of it. In the youtube world we show alot of step. Nice machine though.
y la galion??
Did you ever get the motor grader running
James Chester yes. Check my page for the videos. I still have some work to do on it before it’s fully operational (1 flat tire, corroded hydraulic lines...). But, it’s running!!
How much work on engine before starting?
Rick Atkins practically none. I changed the filter, added some new fuel, put in 2 new batteries, checked the oil, and she fired right up!
Legal aki do Brasil
friend where are you from, what state. why
the whole thing was abandoned ? I'm from Russia
мастер на все руки US. Not sure why they were abandoned.
Locked it up? Broke rings?
Cliff P he just vapor locked it with the ether. Fortunately, no damage...
545b a great loader Allis Chalmers 301 cu in diesel engine tons of power easy on fuel
RJ 1999 the original motor in this loader has been swapped out with a John Deere motor. Looks and runs like it has relatively low hours on it too.
@@HammaDownEnterprises that's a shame, the Allis Chalmers was a better motor!
But still a great loader
@SLHawk92 A John Deere motor in the 545b.That explains why I heard the turocharger whistling.The 645m that I operated while in the army, it's turbocharger didn't whistle.
@@robertunderwood6984 545 should have had a turbo, but if it was a military unit, God only knows how they speced it. I have a 745 B I bought from the Air Force, the military spec says it lifts 12,000# in the real world it lifts 30,000+ like nothing
@SLHawk92 Great video.I'm looking forward to seeing what you're going the do with the grader.What make and model is the grade?Keep up the good work,Buddy.God bless you.
Did you get the moto grader?
Yep! ua-cam.com/video/CYcwLYXoPbE/v-deo.html
After watching this video makes me kinda wish or kick myself for not getting them for myself LOL
don't let the video fool ya, some effort and money went into getting it out of there. And, those tires won't be cheap either. Plus, the grader aint out the woods yet!!
Nice video I have a Allis Chalmers 940 wheel loader the 2900 engine I am looking for a bellhousing anybody knows where the one for sale let me know thank you

have you tried Vander Haag's - www.vanderhaags.com/Search-Results.php?keywordsearch=545b
Dang my people at hubbs tire do tire Repair Anywhere
It might be old but still a good front end loader
Liked the video but read the title as "Fat Allis". Cheers
So you didnt feel like fixing the tire first. No big deal. Did you check the oil?
Bobcat Legend you know, there are some things I figured could go without having to be said... this was one of them. Yes, I checked the oil level.
Bobcat Legend i checked the coolant level too, btw.
Bobcat Legend oh yeah, and the air filter!
You should film all the little details like checking the oil and air filter
Or people will make assumptions. Lol
esses maquinario e de empresa que faliu pq ate arvore ja estao ao meio a maquinas
I seen Tire people fix big tractor tires in mud cane fields better find yourself another tire person
I agree. Also, you could've just dropped the bucket to raise the front off the ground and pulled the wheel off yourself, and then taken it to whoever to fix. Then the reverse to put it on. That tyre will be trashed now, driving it with that weight on it...the side wall will be cracked and trashed. 😒
Porque dejaban abandonadas a esas máquinas sí dé verdad sé podían arreglar es que era más fácil y barato comprar otras y que sobraba dinero
Poor tire probably just needed a $15 Oring or a $10 valve
yeah, I though about that too...(after the fact!!)
What sort of tire shop doesn't do field service! There's zero chance it's repairable by the time you go through all that shit.
6:00 screaming brakes are stuck or something
G POWER DRAGON it was the parking brake
Must not have herd of fix a flat works good
Didn’t show a damn thing about how he got the thing started!
CarPhonix CarAudio I put in new batteries and turned the key...
😂🤣😂🤣😂
Tem vaga de emprego para operador de máquinas pesadas?
Onde você está localizado?
green goop woodve pluged that tire
Not those tires ..if the tire isnt broken loose from the rim and wont hold air athe o ring located behind the lock ring needs to be replaced if thats leaking all the green goo and stop leak in the stores wont stop it from leaking intil that oring is replaced
Las cargadoras fiat allis que se fabricaron en ARGENTINA tienen motor (FIAT CP 3 DE 4 Y 6CILINDROS TURBO ALIMENTADO)y por como suena el motor y regula no es ni jhon deere ni allis challmers..se trata de un motor FIAT CP 3DE 4CILINDROS DE 120HP.FIAT ES FIAT DONDE SEA 💯💯💪💪
No estoy seguro de dónde se fabricó este cargador. Pero, el motor tiene una etiqueta John Deere y un número de serie del motor. Entonces, estoy bastante seguro de que es un Deere :-)
@@HammaDownEnterprises es muy diferente el sonido del motor de un jhon deere pero si esta la serie y la marca.no voy a dudarlo..por lo general tanto jhon deere como allis challmers usan una bomba inyectora rotativa lo que los hace mas ruidosos en cambio fiat tiene un equipo de inyeccion lineal lo que hace el sonido mas sereno y armonioso..
@@victoribarra3023 Okay. No estoy muy familiarizado con los diésel Allis Chalmers. Mi abuelo tenía un viejo tractor Allis Chalmers a gasolina cuando era niño. ¡Fue un buen tractor y divertido de conducir!
Once you found out the tire would not hold the air , you had the loader started , why did you not remove the wheel & tack it to the tire shop ?
Come on man you know better!
For one, I'm not trying to wrestle with that heavy tire unless I have too. And two, on a dry day, your spinning tires and trying to navigate around bushes and over trees just to get to the machines. After even a little rain, getting back there is out of the question. As it is, I got my truck stuck trying to get back there a couple of days after some rain. It's 4 wheel drive and I wasn't too far off the driveway and buried to the axles. I'm not even too upset at the tire shop for not want to change it on site. At least he came out to look at it. Their service truck would've have been buried to the chassis and nobody's trying to drag tools all the way around the house. There's a reason I don't back the dump truck and trailer off the street. Sure, there's several ways that tire could have been changed. Heck, it might have just been a faulty stem. (And, yes, I've already kicked myself for not checking that). Bottomline, I decided it was safer and more efficient to drive it out of the woods and take it to the shop for a new tire.
Cannot beat fiat. Fiatagri machinery were great.
hmmmmm no.
AustriaGamed uuummmmmm you obviously know nothing and is under that American idea of it beat crap cause it’s European. They were and still are unbelievable machines. Last forever I know of a 110.90 model with nearly 30,000hrs. They came out with a limited edition model for us in the Celtic tiger and it no amount of money will buy one today. Collectors items.
@@ferguson20diesel49 what you dumb fuck?
Fire them up take them home
That's so dangerous driving a loader on a trailer with a flat like that and bucket lifted silly high .
Wait it's getting better. .
lucky sob
Now that is what I call a bargain, but you shredded the tyre to fuck.. should have removed the wheel insitu and taken it off to the repair man first. Oh hang on, those machines were stolen 18 years ago and lay hidden for all that time. Naughty naughty.
Best way to totally destroy a tire that I know of !, Drive it flat !
I'll give ya $4000 for it
I'll give 5000
A qualified operator would help
Блять, сколько техники в лесах стоит
Too bad the tire shop cost you $1500 for a new tire because they wouldn't drive up in the yard.
It was a lot, but not quite that much...
Only guy I know that would go on a joy ride with a flat tire that could have been saved with a service call to the field. And, then take a full, long video of the minutae of it!
While I appreciate all the comments on not fixing the flat tire, I got my reasons for doing what I did. Thanks for all the could ofs, would ofs, and should ofs. Bottomline- I had to move the machine from its location. A new tire, was a small price to pay. As a matter of fact, I'm going replace the other three tires too!
Sorry ass tire shop.
Wot sort of tyre shop doesn't come out 2you that's crap,u just wanted 2drive about with it.....
They came out, but said they couldn't fix it where it was at and that the tire itself was no more good. So after that, yeah, i drove it up on the trailer and took it to the shop!
tinha dois so pegou um pq vi um patrou uns fala motoniveladora
UA-cam sou brasileiro passem lá
I the know
Ttil
Flat-Allis. ^^
Covardia esse abandono
Tire company F'ed you
You should have showed wrong what it takes to get one fired up after it's been sitting so many years I'd like the first part of the video until it showed that you didn't show anything after that it sucked
Sun shine slade ok. I’ll take that into consideration for the next one. Thanks for the feedback.
Well that's not worth crap didn't show us the first start on or nothing man that's bogus
Just watched you destroy a tire you could haved saved 👎
