Cleaning Up My Bridge After Flood

[@ritanoel2828]

4Runner is getting the job done--and then some. Be careful! The Kubota saved the day though!!

[@phillipdickinson8557]

Jordan that was turffic job some I had doubts on but you did it and and some with the truck thank you for sharing and your time you got to find out why the lug nuts are coming off the left front not good

[@HumbleAcres]

When I torqued the nuts the other side was also loose. I just need to check more often.

[@iowaboy6296]

Nice job, it does look like fun! Congrats on 10,000!

[@HumbleAcres]

Thanks so much!

[@zram4x4]

Blue lock tite would probably help your wheel from loosening.

[@HumbleAcres]

I might try that in the future.

[@durwoodfoote9607]

Oh Jordan!!! God spared you son. If a log had slipped, you could have been trapped or worse swept under the bridge and drowned.... PLEASE PLEASE TAKE A "HELPER" ALONG WITH YOU IN CASE YOU SHOULD RUN INTO A DANGEROUS SITUATION. PRAYERS.

[@HumbleAcres]

Thanks for your concern. I will try to be careful.

[@garyashdown5376]

Well according to KZbin you've made it to 10,000 congratulations young man👍👏. Gary 🇬🇧🇬🇧

[@HumbleAcres]

Thanks!

[@sharonromer6606]

You are going to have to do some work on that bridge this summer!

[@HumbleAcres]

If I do anything to it it probably won't be a bridge anymore.

[@stex1985]

I use a chain saw on my problem like yours, it just floats away..And my problem becomes somebody’s problem down stream. Yeah , a note after several episodes of this, I don’t cut some of the big ones completely into, the pressure of the water ,next time will break them and have seen the whole jam float away in two piles. Be very careful the danger is unpredictable and good luck!

[@HumbleAcres]

It will probably be my problem later as well. This is the easiest spot to remove them so should just do it now.

[@duanek9892]

Quite a project, you're lucky to have a grapple....my Kubota is too old for attachments like that. I have that same extractor set and it never occurred to me to use it on studs, just rounded nuts.

[@HumbleAcres]

The grapple is by far my most used attachment. The extractor works better on studs then on nuts but will ruin the studs so only good if you aren't going to reuse them.

[@bonniebutton4089]

Looks like soon the bridge is going to turn into a dock. Be safe.

[@HumbleAcres]

It pretty much is already.

[@tinkerinbruce6560]

If you have a torch blow a hole in the end of each fork then use a plow clevis...works great. Then the chain won’t slide on the forks

[@bobjoncas2814]

WHAT A MESS TO CLEAN UP. GOOD JOB, KEEP SAFE

[@HumbleAcres]

Thanks!

[@tonygough8713]

Jordan congratulations on 10 k , thanks for your videos.

[@HumbleAcres]

Thank you too!

[@mikevaske8255]

You need a hole in the end of the fork to put a clevis on to hook the chain to.

[@chriscampbell2327]

Congratulations on 10k subs.1👍👍👍

[@HumbleAcres]

Thanks! 😃

[@mmurphy2317]

10K...Yea!🎯💯👍💪...Go Jordan! Be safe man!

[@HumbleAcres]

Thanks!

Nice video. I have a L4060 HSTC coming in about a week, the wheel studs may be something to keep an eye on. Enjoying your videos and subscribing. Keep up the great content!

[@pineriver9922]

Hey Jordan good video I like all your videos and I am a outdoor guy I do enjoy your videos on fixing your cars and Toyota but was good to take a break and get back to your outside work. I am sitting up here in Wisconsin with a foot and half of snow so not much to do with my kubota L4060 except to move some snow and that isnt the best with kubota I definitely need chains on tires way to much slipping and sliding without them

[@HumbleAcres]

Thanks, I don't have a lot of problems with sliding but chains would be nice.

[@joeanonemouse]

Great job. Great video. Thank you. 👍

[@HumbleAcres]

Thanks for watching!

[@brianhayes7618]

Look at the bright side free firewood

[@HumbleAcres]

Very true.

[@DishragSRU]

Will you do anything with the bridge? Fix the road over?

[@HumbleAcres]

No, I don't own the land on the other side. It will ether stay as it is or be removed.

[@derek763]

you need to get a backhoe for your tractor or maybe a small cheap excavator , will do the job in no time

[@HumbleAcres]

Would be nice. Maybe down the road.

[@jamesmorrison1884]

Nice work Jordan. What did you torque the nuts down to on your wheel? Have a good day.

[@HumbleAcres]

Yes I did, to 105 lb/ft just didn't show it. The other side was getting loose too but still tight enough to not ruin anything luckily.

[@jamesmorrison1884]

@@HumbleAcres I torque mine 400 lbs. Have a great day.

[@jamesmorrison1884]

@@HumbleAcres 250 you should min

[@HumbleAcres]

The manual says 100. 250-400 seems a bit much.

[@jamesmorrison1884]

@@HumbleAcres what's the model of your tractor dont mind me asking.

[@515bucko01]

You should be a little safer on some of that, the jerking out.of the river with the 4runner is a prime example. If that cable would have snapped down close to the tree, the rest may have come rifling out and beheaded you. It would have been much safer to attach your winch on the tractor and pull them up where you were. I know it's not my problem, but I enjoy your program and want you to be alive to do it.

[@HumbleAcres]

Thanks I will keep that in mind.

[@jaygee999]

Jordan, I noticed some of the log debris had saw-cut butts --- Who would allow such lengthy timber to remain near a flowing stream ? -- Don't your neighbors have any "down stream environment" scruples ? Stay Safe !

[@HumbleAcres]

It is my fault. I cut some up stream and didn't have a good way to remove them. I figured this would happen and it is ok.

[@jaygee999]

@@HumbleAcres The adage must be true --- The learning process never ends --- Stay Safe !

[@fredrobinson6990]

The right end of the bridge looks like it’s ready to fall in. The support has been washed away, are you going to redo that section of the bridge?

[@HumbleAcres]

I was washed out years ago because of the logs blocking the flow. The bridge isn't actually needed anymore and probably won't be fixed. If anything it would be removed altogether.

[@fredrobinson6990]

@@HumbleAcres Thanks for explaining the situation.

[@bonniebutton4089]

Hydraulics are a wonderful thing.

[@HumbleAcres]

Yes they are.

[@mikeyoung5211]

Cut the logs in half

[@fredbaumberger8988]

I think you need a excavator for that job

[@HumbleAcres]

That would make it easier but I don't need one.
