COSTLY MISTAKE!! John Deere 3046R Hydraulic Quick Couplers MANGLED!

[@scottmarshall6766]

It's the extension on your impact wrench that's killing it's power. They act like a torsion spring and absorb the shock that does the work. On any impact wrench, minimize anything between the anvil and socket, as even an adapter will hurt performance. I have a nice 3/4" Icon breaker bar from Harbor Freight, it's about 4' long and will rotate whatever you need rotated. Cost is about 90 bucks, and it pays for itself every time I use it. Tractors and attachments have a lot of big stuck bolts so that's more often than you'd think.

[@SpartanZapp]

Tim I own many of those impacts. And I can tell you from not only personal experience. But lots of knowledge on that. You are losing a ton of power through that giant extension. Especially if it's not a high quality brand. You wouldn't believe how much they flex. Case in point look at torque extensions. They limit the torque output of the gun solely based on how thick the extension is.

[@rgd2598]

I bent a hydraulic hard line on my 2010 2520r ‘s steering line , brush hogging and running over large sticks. I took the line into the dealer and they still ordered the wrong one. Also got two quick connects for the loader lines as they were leaking. They sent 3/8” and not the 1/4” needed. I think it will be so much better now that you’ve shown how to find the part numbers myself. Thanks Tim and Christy! For All y’all do.

I feel your pain Tim I just got done doing the same thing with my 3720 cab tractor. My rear remotes and bracket got bent because my front tire got the 3rd service hose wrapped around it and bent everything. I didn't have to replace any hard lines but I have to get a couple of hydraulic hoses remade.

[@mittenequipment2443]

Hey Tim, you should check the torque on the 8 bolts holding the front frame to the engine just in front of the loader mounts. Several of ours have come loose and snapped off (3720 Cab). We are considering removing the front frame section in order to make the repair, but our issue could have been prevented if we more frequently checked the torque of the bolts.

[@TractorTimewithTim]

Good point!

[@johngianopoulos6668]

Sorry to hear about that Tim. I myself am always concerned about routing hoses around moving parts. But it's good to see how you solve the problems you encounter.

This was educational in many ways: showing the process of evaluating the extent of damage and steps to proceed; how to use the online parts manual and ordering; the procedures of disassembly and re-assembly; and your observations and recommendations of the entire repair. Your candor and sharing an unfortunate experience makes for great content and is satisfying (for us!) to see a nasty job well done, and to learn from your experiences.

It took me several parts buying experiences to get familiar with deer's parts break downs. Thanks again for all the shipping I have saved. I'm in northeast Indiana and shipments have always been very timely. I also have a few hats and several can koozies. I bought 3/4 inch Snap-on ratchet, break over head, extension, and 2 handles at an auction. I was lucky nobody wanted 3/4 stuff. I made out like a bandit. Be careful with those 4 clamps you showed. I wanted some of the 3/8 versions for my 2025R. Dealer made a mess installing my front third function. They were $13.56 each (4x13.56).

[@Cotton088]

I agree with the other comments. The extension is your problem. The extension is absorbing the shock (and probably twisting just enough). There are videos on KZbin that will show the difference in extensions etc.

[@ericcarnahan4891]

Sorry to hear about your mishap. I work for a Deere dealership in MI. The quantity that is listed down below the part # is the amount used in that particular application. Most Deere parts#'s are sold individually. Of course there are some exceptions but they are few.

[@garrettwilhelm2267]

Good day tim I am heavy duty technician due to safety i would recommend to replace any of the lines due to weaking the line of metal when you bend line back and forth it breaks down metal Molecules Which weakens it down and causes a stress point and can cause a lot of damage or injuries there's a heads up don't wanna see anybody get hurt There's a lot of pressure that goes through those lines and a little pen hole can kill somebody because of the pressure that's coming out if you cut anything You wouldn't know it's there until it's too late Have a wonderful day love you videos keep up awesome videos

Thank you.

[@sharkeyist]

I was jd main dealer early 2000’s, we had a customer do the very same, at the time, the kit to duplicate the joystick/loader control outlets you’ve bent to the rear with a front or rear valve wasnt silly money and we fitted a few to help sell tractors. It was separate/different to the extra rear hyd services kit.

[@TimGS53154]

Thank you for turning these costly mistakes into learning experiences. I have bent the hardlines on my 1025r bucket when a log jumped up as I lowered the bucket. ☹️

[@bartonmd]

On the impact, you're getting twisting in the extension and play in the socket/extension connections, so you'll lose a ton of impact power, especially on that style of impacts. The different style (cam style?) like the Nitrocats, where you can't use torque sticks on them, don't lose torque so bad because they have much longer pulses.

[@billcindlejr2300]

Don’t feel bad Tim things happen. My dad and family had did that for years use the front in loader remotes for another set in the back! We have never had any trouble at all. As long as you zip tie everything up from and out of the way you should never have any trouble! It is a lot cheaper running rubber hoses from the front to the back for another remote then buying a factory hydraulic block! That works very well doing it that way if you talk everything in insecure it well!

We have a 2210, and my brother has a 1025R. I have always thought Deere should have put the coupler bracket in back, then ran lines to the loader under the tractor. That way you would have outlets in back for loader/equipment and use the loader control to operate both.(of course not at the same time)

[@kevincottington561]

I have a Quick Tip for you..... Don't use an extension with any impact wrench if you want to get maximum torque from it. It acts as a torque limiting "Torque Stick" and the reaction from the extension will reduce the torque proportionally to the length and diameter of the extension.

The flat jaw knipex do work nice for tightening fittings that are hard to reach. I am still waiting for my parts order.. I ordered in January. I'm not thinking too highly of deere.

[@thecardoc100]

@ 26.45 "It's funny mechanics seem to be able to do these things by themselves". Seeing where the bracket bolts were somewhat behind the lines it makes the task a lot more challenging. With anything like this the trick is to do whatever the hardest step is likely to be first while everything will move around easier. That means the lines and fittings need to be threaded together loosely first and then get the assembly into place and then tighten everything. In this case, the bracket bolts would probably have to be in place but loose to allow the bracket to move. One final trick is once fully assembled, before any future disassembly is to put a light bend into the lines while they are secured at both ends. Because they are being held the bend results in the tubes bending to the exact shape you need for easier removal and reinstallation in the future.

[@mabmachine]

Tim, While I do the same and compare prices when you are in the catalog go ahead and change the qty and add the part numbers to the cart. When you are all done you have the list of parts you need along with the qty and prices. Then you can go bargain shopping. You could also print that out and take it to the dealer. However from what I've seen the price at the dealer is usually more than the price if I buy it online and drive over and pick it up.

A couple of sets of crows feet wrenches will help a lot on getting into hard places. I was kind of waiting to see you get the wheel lined back up on the hub. I had noticed that JD cheaped out on the owners and didn't include 2 studs to help in lining up the lug bolt holes. I have gotten to the stage were if I am going to be pulling a rim that only has lug bolts no studs and nuts that I buy two long bolts with the correct threads and cut the heads off them to use as line up studs, once I have several lug bolts in and snugged up I'll pull the temporary studs out.

helpful hint on any impact wrench ....you lose substantial "nut busting torque" when you use any form of extension .....next time take the extension off....also connecting lines in a tight space like that i use a cheap set of 12pt box end wrenches and cut a bit out of the wrench end to fit around the pipe so they are like flare nut wrenches ..the 12pt design gives you lots of flexibility ....and starting with a cheap 2$ wrench its a no brainer for that situation

[@johnpruetz2777]

Thanks for showing this, your videos are so informative. The question I have is actually on the tire removal. Since your tires are loaded how hard was it to remove them by yourself? I am asking because I was planning on purchasing the rear remote kit for my 3025e and removing the tire seems to be the best way to access the lines that need to be changed. My tires are loaded with Rimgaurd and I was not sure how difficult they would be to manuover.

[@TractorTimewithTim]

The tire will stand on its own. That makes it much easier. If it happens to fall over, it is much more difficult to get stood back up. As long as it is standing, you can roll it around, and lean it on something. Not that difficult to handle.

Tim, I noticed your 3046 has an air-ride seat, did you order it that way or did you add the air-ride seat, also, what was the standard seat that comes with a 3046R tractor from John Deere?

@@carterblann2290 Who has proven it false? I've experienced it myself removing axle nuts. My Milwaukee M18 impact would not loosen the nut when I had a 6-inch extension attached. I removed the extension and attached the socket directly to the gun and it instantly removed the fastener.

[@scottbaigrie]

Can also confirm that extensions and adaptors drastically decrease the nut busting capability of any impact wrench. Again, from years of personal experience. Some of the force is absorbed by the extension. Badly worn sockets also have a similar effect. 👍🏻

[@bigjimflying7195]

The extra “slop” from the additional coupling is also a detriment.

[@EOTG_AK]

@@carterblann2290 you are probably mistaking the use of an extension on a torque wrench vs an impact. Torque wrenches are accurate with an extension but an impact loses strength because the impacts are dampened by the torsional flex of the extension. This is the physics that allows the use of calibrated torque stix with an impact.

Farming is fixing, everywhere, ever...

[@wickedcoyote271]

Milwaukee does make a 3/4, and even a monster 1in. impact. possibly a little known fact is the battery size and generation can change the power of the tool. A newer version, or larger battery capacity model can increase the output power of the tool. If you are not breaking equipment, you aren't using equipment. :D I find I end up with similar damage when I either rush or am tired prepping for the task at hand, or when putting it away.

When I do that, it lists all of my Deere equipment and when you click on a piece of equipment, there is no ambiguity about model, serial number, or options and the correct parts blowup is displayed. My local Deere portal shows me if the part I need is in stock at any of their four stores and how many are in stock. I can order parts in the morning and pick them up usually late afternoon or the next morning if they have them in stock. Maybe your local Deere dealer hasn’t implemented that feature yet?

I only worked with tractors that have the hydraulic line connections in the back facing your implements. So if something were to happen it would pull the line straight out without doing damage. Never seen connections facing forward before, but then again I only worked with old tractors on my grandparents farm.

Milwaukee actually makes a 3/4", 1", and many other heavy duty machine g$n style impacts. Many in the trucking industry use those larger guns. But for home owner you're right that 1/2" is about biggest baddest you can get/need

I have a Dewalt heavy duty impact cordless wrench I still have to break out my pneumatic impact from time to time. Don’t feel too bad. I made a mistake with something in my house recently and it’s gonna cost me a couple thousand dollars to fix it.

Mistakes make for great informative videos. Have a quick tip for you, if you add the items to the cart you can just screenshot the cart instead of saving each one individually. Some sites even allow you to share the cart so you can just email it to yourself.

I have modified a few crowfoot wrench's to work on close quarter lines.

Wow, that must’ve been a lot of force to bend that bracket. Tim, could you get a 3rd function remote for the rear of the tractor? What is a triple mid scv? Maybe I should google that lol

What is it a middle line or regular hose
