Long Hall Larry rebuilt his 7.3 last winter...now he's spent this fall redoin his roof/siding n Upper Peninsula Michigan

[@rosstheoliverman]

Good ole 7.3 🇺🇸

[@martymurphy7477]

cool video

[@rosstheoliverman]

Thanks Marty!

[@345farm]

Kids must love you as their bus driver!

[@tomharrington1393]

He is also a school teacher. I keep forgetting to ask if he is teaching this year.

[@rosstheoliverman]

🤣🤣🤣 yeah right

[@rosstheoliverman]

I am teaching a few classes

[@pagrainfarmer]

Wow, from what you said, the tire shops out there must be pretty expensive. We have a guy in our area who does nothing but a mobile repair service for farm and industrial tires. I had him here a year ago to put a new set of rear tires on the White 2-110 and 1 new rear on the Oliver 1550. He charged me a grand total of $200, which also included the cost for dismounting the 3 old tires and taking the calcium chloride out and putting it back in again. I thought that was more than reasonable.

[@rosstheoliverman]

That used to be about what it was. I haven’t had them come out for years but my cousin tried to have them come take his combine tire off and that’s what they told him.

[@burrridgefarms]

Well at least it didn't go flat on a cold night in January while blowing snow🤣🤣 The beads were broken but I had to put the torpedo heater on the bead to get it to stretch. Then I had to roll the new tires across the yard out of the heated building and mount them...tons of fun🙄

[@rosstheoliverman]

😭😭😭🤣🤣🤣

[@keithwuchter624]

Another good video Ross. A lot of work, but after you said the tire shop would have charged 800.00 dollars just to dismount that tire, I must say you did the right thing by doing it yourself. thank you for sharing. Ton fo work but worth it.

[@rosstheoliverman]

Thanks Keith!

[@onehappyfarmer3461]

I think you’d have known if there was fluid in it long ago when the sidewall split open.

[@rosstheoliverman]

Yeah, I guess I was remembering when the back one went flat.

[@stephenheyes4324]

Ross's great circle of sadness adventures

[@rosstheoliverman]

😭😭😭

[@michaelsheeder148]

Ross, thanks for making this video. Michael

[@rosstheoliverman]

Thanks Michael!

[@alexgarrod9093]

Hope get it sorted bud my cars all ways sadness mostly

[@rosstheoliverman]

I’m sure you’ll get it figured out. Thanks Alex!

[@gregdavis8152]

[@rosstheoliverman]

[@alexgarrod9093]

Yes sure is

[@rosstheoliverman]

😭😭🤣

[@davidbarnes706]

I’ll be watching

[@rosstheoliverman]

Thanks David!

[@jasonandholliehuffman8291]

I beat one off the other day with dads old bead breaker on the 77. My hands shook the rest of the day.

[@rosstheoliverman]

It definitely rattles you good if you do it very long 🤣

[@kimculver1038]

Glad I’m not the only one with big tire flats. Combine left side went flat together jacked up traded rim to scrap yard for rim with tire. Finished field now the other one is flat Repete. Oh well

[@rosstheoliverman]

It’s loads of fun 🤣

[@johnbender1596]

Great to see the energy you put into farming! Kinda lost that a few years back!

[@rosstheoliverman]

🤣 Thanks John!!

[@mattwilkinson8502]

I have a debeeding tool just like the one you use. I broke my roll pin and just welded mine

[@rosstheoliverman]

Yeah that’s definitely looking like a good idea

[@joescheller6680]

Go to a tractor salvage yard can find used tires for very reasonable price. 200 tp 300 probably

[@rosstheoliverman]

Yeah but this is an odd size. I haven’t had much luck unfortunately:(

[@markflick1641]

Your awesome Ross ! Loved how you worked the red players into the fray . I gotta get me one of those orange hammers , I’ll bet you use it even when you paint 😂. Great video , see ya tomorrow

[@rosstheoliverman]

🤣 thanks Mark!

[@johnkissack5295]

Your a hard working man!

[@rosstheoliverman]

Thanks John!

[@emmitt00]

Love the 7 three, And I'm a chevy guy!

[@rosstheoliverman]

Can’t beat the sound of a 7.3!

[@Ham68229]

Ross, yes, always use a pair of vise grips, really helps. For stubborn tires like that, I know many frown upon it but, I've sometimes had to use my loader tractor and used the bucket to "push" the tires to break the bead. Unfortunately, yes, you're there, go ahead and replace that seal, save yourself the headache later. Last time I installed a boot, it lasted forever. Great video as always, cheers :)

[@rosstheoliverman]

I have done that before as well

[@larryklostermann5779]

Nice video Ross. Lots of hard work.

[@rosstheoliverman]

Thanks Larry!

[@koreymartinson7238]

I know your pain with stuck tires. I did a set a couple years back that I think we're original from the late 60s early 70s. They were a whole new definition of one with the rim! I wound up cutting one off with cutoff wheel. What a fight that can be!

[@rosstheoliverman]

It can definitely be an adventure sometimes 🤣

[@petepeeff5807]

2nd comment of the videos. I welded the nut on my bead breaker out of the box.I first disassembled it and packed it with grease to preserve the threads.It can still break over time. And yes I can weld . Used 7018 with plenty of heat.

[@rosstheoliverman]

I’m getting pretty close to just welding that nut on 🤣

[@danw6014]

Well Ross if it has t!ts or tires you know you're going to have trouble with it.

[@rosstheoliverman]

🤣🤣🤣

[@bigun447]

Ross, the Rodney Dangerfield of old tractors. "I get no respect" was Dangerfield's famous line. Ross's favorite line is "It will probably fall over and kill me." Maybe you (Ross) should start a tire and battery business with Oliver parts as a sideline. On the oil cooler, some companies sell coolers that are tubes with fins on them that can be formed to fit about anywhere. Also, searches of salvage (oops, recycling centers) yards just might find a cooler from another model of tractor that will fit. Most companies would try to use a readily available cooler than make one of their own. Remember, White was looking to save every penny possible by the time those were made. Maybe you can find a cooler you could mount somewhere more convenient and simply use a small car electric fan to blow cool air over it. You might actually get your hydraulic oil cooled down enough to make it work better.

[@rosstheoliverman]

That may be what I have to do. I’m sure the availability on this part is pretty low 🤣

[@frankwurth5375]

Ross, sadly I had one of those bead breakers. It only lasted for 2 tires before the threads gave out. I now have a hydraulic one that hopefully will last better.

[@rosstheoliverman]

Wow! I’ve dismount it I don’t know how many tires, hundreds with this one. Maybe yours was made on a Friday afternoon at closing time 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@keithtyson6457]

Ross a little tire lub would help you A cheap dishwashing liquid ie joy . Is what I used when I didn’t have the high dollar tire lubricant

[@rosstheoliverman]

I’ve used that before

[@gleanerk]

Wow 1st ! Well done hard working fella

[@rosstheoliverman]

Thanks 👍

[@MikeJensen-wo7oh]

I really feel your pain on the price of new rubber but I would be hard pressed to fix that 'tire' and put it back on knowing I'm going to have to do it again in a year or less!

[@rosstheoliverman]

Yeah, that’s kind of why I’m thinking just put the new one on now and cry about it. I don’t wanna have to be doing this again and again.

[@MikeJensen-wo7oh]

I bought two new sets of Firestone's this fall. 16.9X38's and 20.8X38's. That set me back a bit! Then I drug home a Farmall 400 that really needs new rubber, or at least better. It's not going to get brand new ones but I'm on the hunt for tires, again! The right one will hold air, for maybe an hour. Long enough to move it around and that's about it. Knowing what the 20.8's cost I'd hate to know what those 23.1X34's go for!! @@rosstheoliverman

[@DonWelter]

No small task breaking down ag tire beads. Didn't hear any animal sounds...when the bead breaker was having roll-pin fits LOL. If the tire is junk, I've used PB Blaster or WD 40 around the rim/bead joint...not in accord with tire dismount protocol, but sometimes ya gotta do what ya gotta do.

[@rosstheoliverman]

I had to cut out so much footage because it was all animal sounds 🤣🤣🤣

[@rosstheoliverman]

I had to cut out so much footage because it was all animal sounds 🤣🤣🤣

[@markhicks9545]

Maybe volconise it and put a tube in it

[@rosstheoliverman]

That might be an option.

[@marklafayette6948]

😅😅😅🫵🫵👨‍🌾

[@kylebrown521]

Tire work is always a pain, and expensive if you’re not doing it yourself. I know new tire is a lot of money but I wouldn’t want to do it again anytime soon. I would go with new tire and be done for years.

[@rosstheoliverman]

I think so too. I don’t wanna have to keep doing it over and over.

[@shanewheeler6644]

Maybe you could get a half decent used tire somewhere just to buy some time.

[@rosstheoliverman]

Yeah, I’m not sure yet what I’m gonna do.

[@earldoubet8062]

Hey what size are they ross , I know a guy that sell tires used n new . From turkey creek farms be safe n thankful

[@rosstheoliverman]

23.1-34

[@johnkissack5295]

Ross, I noticed the dash on your 1655 is flat like the 00 and black my 1955 is totally different than the 00 it has gauges different spots and my dash is papered wood grain? Why would the two 55 series dash be different?

[@rosstheoliverman]

The 1555 and 1655 dashes are different than the large frame.

[@johnkissack5295]

Oh ok I didn’t know that thanks

[@dylanhockaday9878]

May me time to look in to a vevor hydraulic beed braker lol

[@rosstheoliverman]

Maybe 🤣

[@petepeeff5807]

Goodyear tire sidewalls UGH!!!😢😢

[@rosstheoliverman]

😭😭😭

[@jamieebersole6755]

Old tractor tires are always a pain. I'd rather do truck tires, except then you usually have 8 to do at a time.

[@rosstheoliverman]

Yeah, i’m not sure which is worse size, or quantity? 🤣

[@alexgarrod9093]

Aww ways something that goes wrong brakes need fixing

[@rosstheoliverman]

Always something 😭

[@jimtrewartha2594]

Are you serious about $800 for on farm tire service!? Boy I'm glad I dont live in your hood! I have given up beating and prying on tires, I'm to old for that anymore! I have out lasted several area tire shops, some were ok, some not. I have one now that is very reasonable, hes young, and it was his grandpas shop. Basically a one horse operation, when hes out with the truck, the shop is closed. I call him for fluid and really large tires. But if its dry and smaller I'll take the tire and wheel to him. He has a machine that will change a 42" tire like a small one will change a car tire! And he doesn't mind if I take in a used tire for my antique tractors that I got at a bone yard or an auction. I guess I should consider myself lucky to have him! I hope he outlast my time for needing that work! Other places have come and gone, and usually for good reason, shoddy work, and other reasons over the years for me.

[@rosstheoliverman]

I never thought it was that high, but this fall when my cousin broke the final drive on his 8900, he couldn’t get the wheel off and he called them to see what they would charge to come out and just unbolt the wheel and they told him $800.

[@jimtrewartha2594]

@@rosstheoliverman Wow!

[@corydriver7634]

$800 to dismount a tire? Thats robbery. I I understand they sometimes have to drive a ways and that’s dead money but really? Even half that is too much but at least that would put it into the realm of affordability.

[@rosstheoliverman]

Yeah, that’s what I thought too. But that’s what they told my cousin just a few weeks ago.
