[@walterwhitaker1395]

[@PrairieMechanic]

@@walterwhitaker1395 yes he’s my go to for evening entertainment! Thanks for watching

[@billdornan4379]

Yes,Warren has great content. He’s no different when speaking to him than he is on his channel. Stand up guy.🇨🇦🇨🇦

[@jasondedic]

Hell ya bro! KZbin needs another one of you guys on here. You and Warren fixing up the cool equipment!

[@PrairieMechanic]

@@jasondedic haha thanks! That’s the biggest compliment a guy can get, being compared to Warren!

[@jasondedic]

@PrairieMechanic you'll be at 100k subs in no time man. Digging the channel!

[@13raden]

“Doing it right, with fun and integrity” love the best 😉

[@wolverine89893]

That is awesome on how you handled all that and were aware of your surroundings and stayed safe. That steel one looks like a BEAST hopefully the farmer doesn't want that on all 4 wheels 😂 You did a great job along with your Student Helper. Love the shop looks very organized and clean. 😊

[@PrairieMechanic]

@@wolverine89893 thank you sir!! It’s a work in progress. Haha, I sure hope he doesn’t want it on all 4. Apparently this side is common to fail and this is the second time in this tractors life. But now with this steel upgrade it should be the last

[@douglasmayherjr.5733]

Nice to see they are making aftermarket axle housings. Definitely looks better than a cast piece. It looked like it happened before, unless you wrote on the piece. Thanks for the video.

[@PrairieMechanic]

@@douglasmayherjr.5733 is has happened before yes.

[@douglasmayherjr.5733]

@@PrairieMechanic hopefully the steel piece holds up. Probably be doing the other side next. Those machines probably have a bunch of hours on them by now. I worked at a AGCO Allis dealer in the mid nineties, you seen very few machines with over 10K hours, now that’s low houred, depending on your area. Been watch Warren for years, got your video recommendation, I subscribed. Be safe out there.

[@tutekohe1361]

A friend of mine in Western Australia had a Versatile tractor just like that, but his had a 350hp V8 903 Cummins.

[@billdornan4379]

Nice job young man 👍👍

[@stevefowler244]

looks a little warmer and less windy this go around. Liked and subscribed. Hang in there.

[@TYSuggested]

Nice work!

[@timbellenfant5611]

Changed many of those in my younger days

[@carlcarlamos9055]

Thanks for the video. I looked through the comments and the description, but did not find any pertinent info on the supplier of the new fabricated piece. If you could share that info, it would be helpful. Thanks again. Take care.

[@PrairieMechanic]

@@carlcarlamos9055 it was purchased from Gratton Coulee They are a wrecker near viking Alberta. They build them in house Just under 5k for that piece.

[@TheRoguelement]

What I have found to be exactly true is when your working on ANY piece of heavy equipment and your in a constant state of fear you are almost setting your self up perfectly for something to go wrong .. I find if I'm deliberate in my actions using my commonsense and 55 yrs of experience . I DON"T PLACE MYSELF in fearful situation's But working along side someone whop is constantly saying I hope it doesn't drop or fall on me often times get exactly that ...

[@PrairieMechanic]

@@TheRoguelement hope I can be as good as you when I have 55 years of knowledge 😮‍💨 thanks for watching.

[@davis3561]

Son, sure would like to see you wear that eye pro on your head. Especially when your face is inches from that impact. You only get one chance to get it right. Ask me how I know😜

[@PrairieMechanic]

@@davis3561 I am usually really good about that. But I will say lately it’s getting pretty bad. That’s how it starts. Need to do better. 😬 Thanks for watchin

[@kevinsantema6807]

Just a friendly suggestion, don’t stick your finger in the end of the socket to remove the nut, seen a video where that didn’t end well, Thanks for the video

[@Bristolcentaurus]

it does not end well especially when the sockets worn and the nut wants to tip and lock in fingers don't make good thread pitch gauges

[@pontustengvall6767]

Is it the jackstands you're pensively looking back at from time to time?!

[@PrairieMechanic]

@@pontustengvall6767 yes I wanted to make sure nothing was trying to shift or anything with the weight of the duals shifting as the bolts came lose. In hindsight I would have done it differently. I also would like to build another few big pads like what’s on the one side and use those big wide stands more. But this was really uneven and rough ground. Hard to make it perfect. And easy to worry when your in a field all alone. I try to be as safe as possible but always room for improvement.

[@pontustengvall6767]

​@@PrairieMechanic​@PrairieMechanic Not my intention to critique you in any way! Just took me a while to figure out what you were looking at! Yeah, always room for improvement and addition too the tools you bring with you. But oftentimes the job you arrive at differs vastly from what you were told, or the issue is something completely new to us, and for me that's the fun part; solving a new problem with the tools and know-how you brought with you! Keep up the great job and please keep sharing it with us!

[@PrairieMechanic]

@@pontustengvall6767 you got that right about changing situations/scenarios. Have to be creative on this line of work

[@prevost8686]

👍

[@sehravit]

EVER HEARED ABOUT EDITTING 🤔

[@PrairieMechanic]

Heard of it, somewhere

[@willismorgan8369]

Wye do you work like a novice . Rule no one leave your self an escape root , block this up do not rely on Jack's

[@PrairieMechanic]

@ ​​⁠didn’t leave the machine supported on a jack at any time. No weight on yellow bottle jack under the axle. Only one holding weight was the one pushing the axle down, not much you can do about that and no risk of falling and crushing me.

[@garybuth801]

HATE TO TELL YOU BUT YOUR LIVING DANGEROUSLY/NEED TO SECURE THE AXLE PROPERLY

[@rickfreeman7892]

Shouldn't joke about it but Danger is just part of the fun. Whats life without the spice of death. Its ag field repair ya do the best ya can with what ya got and try to get it supported better the next time.

[@TheRoguelement]

I'm in utter shock this boy thinks that axle flange is going to come flying off as soon as he cracks that last BOLT .. CAN YOU SAY NOVICE...

[@PrairieMechanic]

@@TheRoguelement sorry, what 🤔
