Funny - I was waiting for a comment about the train passing .... Thinking about the CEE out-takes ... and then.... Anyone NOT watching CEE should. www.youtube.com/@CuttingEdgeEngineering

[@csnelling4]

Love CEE videos, great camera work and talented skill set of Kurtis and Karen and not forgetting Homie the safety officer 🦮

[@mib20000]

FUC* off TRAIN. lol

[@maxnex7676]

@@csnelling4 100 percent with you on that.

[@klsc8510]

I enjoy watching trains. The horns are music to my ears!

[@MichaelBrown-qn9hi]

C'mon, pt2. Using a wrecking ball to work on a dozier is a classic mechanical move, "Make that Mug let go."

[@skinnerjoseph3241]

Lovingly carried in , guts yanked out then mashed with a wrecking ball , yep fun times.

[@michaelburns566]

That ole wrecking ball has come in handy a few times now! Can’t wait to see the transmission rebuild!

[@280813jb]

Clint your knowledge of those dozers amazes me, great to see that you are passing along your knowledge to Hunter.

[@tsparky236]

It's a wonder that HR Dept does not fire you both, LOL. Another great video sir. always informative, interesting and entertaining to say the least. Thanks

[@C_CEQUIPMENT]

Good question!

[@tdkrei]

CEE is also of my favorite channels to watch along with C&C. Maybe because I was a CNC machinist. Keep on smiling.

[@Mtlmshr]

Clint, BTW I would like to compliment you and your crew on how clean y’all keep your shop looking! That just shows that you truly care about what it is you do! It would not matter if you were baking bread, the fact that you care enough about your work environment to continuously have it kept that way! Shows everyone that you take pride in what you do. Well done to your entire crew!

[@russellgilson4072]

Great to see Hunter working side by side his Dad learning lots of practical knowledge.

[@kwshilts]

"These don't require any special tools, can be done in your shop." As long as you have your own wrecking ball and a small excavator. Very informative video.

[@rogerwiley7269]

In the late 80's I worked for an engineer who had retired from JD as the lead designer of the G model trans. When he told me that he could have the trans out and on the bench in an hour I told him he was out of his cotton pickin' mind. I went back to heavy eq. in the late 90's for a company that had a fleet 450-650G's which meant I was rebuilding 3-4 G transmissions/yr. I had to call him and apologize. Of all the brands I have worked on, that was the easiest to remove and work on. Great videos.

[@daverunion2162]

I’ve been watching your channel since you went above and beyond to take care of Dirt Perfect on military dozer fiasco. Your scope of knowledge on all these different brands, models and kinds of equipment never ceases to amaze me. No wonder your business is so successful. Good entertaining content. Thx. Love your crew and the rapport with them.

[@gregstone1306]

I never knew that I wanted a wrecking ball. Primitive but effective.

[@forthrightnight]

I never knew you knew my wife.

[@tectalabyss]

Great job Guys. I am 63 and heard a Transmission called a tranny all my life. So I am not going to stop now : ) I own an old John Deere 300 TLB The clutches are a metal type Wear material and look brand new even though the tranny was full of water. I just had to change the seal in the piston has rust had ate them up. Liked and shared. All my best.

[@cyberdyne981]

🤣 At 53:20 Bad to The Bone playing while Kevin is running the car through flames is another classic C&C moment for the Best Of Reel! Big kids do love big toys. Also the wrecking ball. Most of us don't have one of those in our toolbox. 😆 If we did, I'm sure we would use it more often than is wise. That is wild how much smoke reached you. I'm about 800 miles (1300 km) away from you near Ottawa, Canada and fire was another 1200 km north-east of me in Quebec. The smoke was really bad here, but the fact that it made it over 1500 miles to you shows how big the fires have been this year. 🔥🔥🔥🔥Bad to the Bone!

[@glencaple3888]

👍👍 Good thing there was no ceiling remodeling in this video. 😜

[@malcolmmcgilvery700]

You mentioned Cutting Edge Engineering from Australia. I'm not surprised that you watch him, he puts out a lot of information about machining operations.

[@C_CEQUIPMENT]

Yes he is good

[@Hey_Its_That_Guy]

Kevin is really a child at heart. It's a wonder he hasn't burnt the shop down...yet! 🤣

[@The-Deadbolt-Deputy]

Dam rite. The wreckin ball actually works well in this situation. It puts a BUNCHA FORCE in a pinpoint area.

[@jimhancock5047]

Essential shop equipment: Taylor forklift and wrecking ball! I like it!

[@donalddehaven3229]

You and Kevin are hilarious. Another great video.

[@davidperry970]

Makes my day watching you guys fighting undercarriage work.

[@rickydonahue1586]

I've never seen anyone use a wrecking ball as a precision tool before I started watching y'all! 👍👍

[@terryrogers1025]

As always gentlemen, entertaining as well as informative, don’t envy you taking the idler off, even with the tools and equipment. Kevin says he’s got man fingers when he pulled that one bolt out, I would say more like snauage fingers instead of sausage fingers. Thanks for the tag along video.

[@bones2610]

I don't know of anyone around me that would eat the cost of that repair like you. You're a good and honest man.

[@UncleManuel]

He came in like a wrecking ball! 😂😂😁😁 But holy crap, some welds are less durable than this rusted on tensioner. WOW! 😲

[@thomasstewart9368]

Those are the days a guy goes home hungry - tired & beat-up after the battle. 👍

[@vintagekyoshodotcom]

I’ve never seen that before. Hitting a machine with a wrecking ball to loosen something up. That was so cool!!

[@dansevern3291]

Well, I reckon you've proved what I always heard, "if it's stuck, you need a bigger hammer."

[@roaddog1m]

I love that you have a youngster in there. Teaching him a valuable trade where he will learn a lot and also be able to make a good living

[@heatherlane9270]

Always interesting to see how you 'fix' things.

[@trumpingtonfanhurst694]

I enjoy your knowledge and experience, and watching someone work who knows what they're doing and explains it as well as you do is always a good thing. No more pumpy pumpy lol

[@wallbawden5511]

the one thing i relay love about this Chanel is it's family all the way your sons and workers alike all treated like family all equal makes good viewing and it goes other way makes good family watching as well keep up the good work both in shop and no video Cheers

[@glennbrown1961]

Good to see Mr. Clinton letting the young folks...Hunter... do the work like driving forklifts etc getting experience. Unlike some U-tube creators that only let themselves operate everything. Best comedy channel on u-tube! Cheers and G'day from Tasmania.

[@andytaylor3098]

man oh man your knowledge is just superb on heavy equipment seem to be boundless super to watch thank you for sharing

[@frritter8253]

Perfect line..."wonder if Harbor Freight sells wrecking balls?"... super video Clint, always enjoyable! Thanks for taking us along.

[@giggitygiggitygoofg6069]

Put that hydraulic block on your mill or lathe and skim off a mil or so then you'll have a nice fixed pump for your pin punch

[@richardw.foxhall3392]

The wrecking ball is the finest " Bigger Hammer" example on KZbin. Now when does the tracked crane get to deliver a whack? You could pick a particularly stubborn repair project to administer the wrecking ball to...should be fun to watch the wind up and delivery.

[@rockman531]

Always nice to see Miley again! She's been slacking. It's amazing how rust is better than most adhesives at holding parts together!! Great job! Looking forward to the trany rebuild! Stay safe (KEVIN - playing with fire)!! Thumbs up! Jim

That machine you used to remove the pin is awesome,we could have done with one removing rusted pins

8/4/23; JD 450 G w/trans slipping & lft front Idler asmbly (block & yoke) rusted =immovable! Yikes! Kinda delicate looking activities pulling 1/2 of axel shaft out then 'slipping' other 1/2 of axel into a 'neutral' area to allow compact transmission to be pulled out rearward from big access plate. Amazing how you show/tell(teach) we armchair viewers how to do this type of work. You make it look sooo easy! Using yur large Wrecking all

[@C_CEQUIPMENT]

Thanks

Jammed up my chain, sounds like a good country song

[@timwright7087]

doing that is so much funner out in the woods with trees all around and snow on the ground using a track hammer and sledge ..must be nice lol

[@paulkoomen5262]

That smoke is is free, We have it here in Manitoba also, here it makes it hard breathing. That twice the wrecking ball did a great job, who would have thought.

[@C_CEQUIPMENT]

I bet

[@Dan.Whiteford]

That track breaking tool is pretty impressive and certainly appears very capable at breaking the joint and pushing the pin out. I assume it can be used in a reverse pattern to re-insert the pin again and rejoin the track? The power pack machining of the plate with the O rings rather less impressive though - I couldn't see that repair lasting any real length of time / cycles of use for what must be a real expensive tool!!

You know there is a problem when the wrecking ball comes out of storage. It's the old "Bigger Hammer Theory" in action. Another great video Clint.

47:00 That's how Scotland feels, in a good year they get to know what the ball of fire in the sky is according to Franky Boyle

[@michaelyochum8532]

On any high hour G transmission o/h we always machined the backing plates on the clutch packs to give more clearance for the snap ring that holds the backing plate to the drum. As the drum and plate wear the snap rings can get lodged under the plate lip and break.

[@C_CEQUIPMENT]

Thanks for the info

Great job good old John Deere great video thanks Clint and Kevin

[@mrtowmonster]

I'm in Northern VA about 20 miles west of DC and we been getting the smoke from Canada as well. Sometimes you have to use unconventional tools to get things apart I have a 20 pound chipping hammer thats normally run off a big compressor that I have used many times to help knick things apart last time i used it was to knock out the bolts on a used bushog i got at auction that hold the blades on my brother was watching when i did it and he was rather impressed by my use of unconventional tools. I've even heard of guys using a hydraulic hammer on a skid steer or track hoe to knock out stubborn pins before as well beats a manual slegdhammer any day

[@ryandavis4457]

Def a few cold Coors lights deserved after a job well done!

I learned today why I am not a good mechanic. Number one is a big ass forklift. Number 2 is a brand new baby forklift. Number 3-4 are a pin press and a Miley Cyrus. Without any of these that job would have been a little more difficult. Do you need to do the other side before trans goes back in? Impressive once again. Thanks.

[@C_CEQUIPMENT]

Lol Other side is fine
