Help! We’re getting in deep rebuilding the engine on the Deere 455E track loader, will it ever run

[@DouglasLaws-e3h]

Clinton enjoy your time with your dad cause when their gone all you have left is memories, I used to work with my dad and he passed in 2005 I sure miss him………

[@larrywarner4305]

Mine passed in 2023. Miss doing things together also.

[@wirefeed3419]

My dad passed in 2000, a lot of years have passed and I am now older. The loss never goes away I still miss him especially when doing mechanical things. Watching this video really brings up those memories of doing rebuilds on my motorcycle engines and a few car engines that we did together.

[@vicchiapetta4166]

[@stephenmcelroy1179]

I was an aviation mech, for the Navy and we did not touch a project without the book in hand. It is forbidden to work from memory. The community as a whole revives so many safety changes throughout the years, what you remember from the last evolution of what you are working on is probably not the same, and the level of accountability involved is absolutely unnerving at times. With prison time absolutely possible if something fails and you did not follow the publication with the most up-to-date changes, the only thing that is more unnerving than not using the correct publication is being responsible for the publications and keeping the changes current todate. This was my secondary responsibility. So to see you referring to the publication/book is refreshing and shows an extremely high leave of profecializem. Props!

[@gromlech1107]

Glad you are bringing it back to life, it seems to be a solid machine! With equipment prices this is still a valuable machine. Your findings on the cavitation sparked my memory with some low hour state forest fire suppression John Deere 750 dozers that I did in chassis overhauls because of this issue.

Really enjoy the detail you provide about the removal/rebuild/repair of projects in your shop. I've done this type of repair for over 45 years and watching your videos brings back many fond memories of a lot of great machines, great owners and co-workers. Keep up the good work, C and C rocks! On a side note, cherish the time you spend working with your dad, someday your memories will be all you have.

Well done Clint and Kevin. Really enjoyed this rebuild. Bravo from Victoria Australia

[@C_CEQUIPMENT]

Thanks for watching

[@mikeyb5581]

You guys really made me laugh, when you were applying the never seize. The one thing I learned early on, was that never seize "grows". No matter how hard you try, it ends up everywhere! Usually where you don't want it. Loved the video. Never saw a rebuild like you did on this engine. From removal through tear down to reassembly. Looking forward to the next video.

[@C_CEQUIPMENT]

It does! Thanks

Glad to see you working with your dad, Would like to see more of the two of you working together.

Brilliant watching this rebuild. Back 50 years ago most of us rebuilt our own car engines , fitted new clutches , set up timing with a strobe light and could never get that dam spline to align with the engine inside 30 shoves and pushes!!! Watching you guys do the complete rebuild brings back all those great days. Whoever gets this loader is going to get the bees knees. Fantastic work guys.

[@C_CEQUIPMENT]

Thanks

[@michaelhounsell3888]

You dix an excellent job. There are a lot of companies out there that would hire you. I wish i had a dad who would have built something even half as good as this for me when i was young. This will not only serve your children but your grand kids as well. Well done sir.

[@bombardier3qtrlbpsi]

Nice work! That makes a person smile Made in USA instead of... You know what I mean! Great job dad and son.

[@C_CEQUIPMENT]

Yep for sure Thanks

[@Mr1996scott]

I throughly enjoy watching y’all work …. A little advance if you don’t mind “ install the camshaft first, reason being, you can carry the camshaft through the block without the crankshaft being in the way, you would be protecting the camshaft journals when you carry the camshaft through the block and it would be straight instead of wiggling the camshaft in. “ I hope you understand

[@mikegallagher237]

people complain about how much you charge to do the repair but they need to watch the video to see how much is involved to realise & understand that they don't have the ability to do a repair of this nature. you guys are awesome & your abilities are unparalied. keep up the good work. I would love to join your team as a minor person/cleaning & learning would be good enough for me-I don't need to step up to a higher level.

[@Tafs315]

Hi, your Dad brought a smile to my face, it was when he put his foot out and under the piston while you were holding the piston on the side of the bench, while he was knocking out the piston pins!! :-) That is what I use to do when I was working as a "MOTOR" Mechanic Many years ago.

[@errolorticke5573]

As an avid viewer of your videos and subscriber, I must ask why are you not using a lubricant called "Kano Aerokroil Penetrating Oil, 10 oz. aerosol can" (which you can find at any refrigerant supply house or even Amazon, which seemingly has everything). This stuff is like WD-40 on steroids! It's no wonder every AC mechanic has a good supply in their van or service vehicle. Give you an example of just how potent this stuff is, I once dug up and old bolt and nut which looked like it came from the covered wagon period (18th century, maybe) that was visibly welded together by the rust due to the sodium rich soil it was buried in for 100 years or more. One attempt to loosen the nut proved to be a waste of time, so I sprayed on the Areo Kroil, since I just happened to have some, and let it soak overnight. The next day, I could almost turn the nut with my fingers! This stuff is a nightmare to rust like Raid is to roaches 😅 I must confess, it is very expensive (last time I purchased a can it was about $25.00 for a 12oz can from a store called Aireco Supply! Compare that to a can of wd-40. Since you are constantly working on weathered equipment, just thought I'd pass this on to yas.

[@ToneyMartin-p5b]

[@jonnooney7102]

A lot of peace of mind for the potential new owner when he can just watch the KZbin video to see the work was actually done and done well ! I run an outboard engine shop. I think I may start doing this.

[@oddtechman]

What an awesome follow up video.. takes me back to when i did my city & guilds... the "white metal" bearings lol.. the "double click" to be sure on the torque wrench.. and the 4 inch thick manual!!! all that's missing from here is the white gloves for the finish up!!! Thanks for sharing as always Clint and nice to see your Dad helping out also.. "Keeping it in the family"

[@jmwarden1]

Somewhere on an earlier youtube video, someone posted that if you click more than once with a torque wrench you will over-torque your item, I don't know where they came up with that idea, but I always double click when torquing.

[@jerrywallen8327]

Great to see Dad helping out anxious to hear her kick off

[@dgeorge4665]

Surprised that you didn’t remove new pistons from new sleeves to verify stagger of ring gaps and ensure no broken rings. Relying on factory assembly is fine but if problems surface after engine assembly a few minutes now might be good insurance.

[@LESWEGENER]

The moment you said you were going to rebuild the water pump, I wondered how that was going to go! If you don't break the housing and the impeller survives and fan hub comes off in one piece, only then you might be able to rebuild it. Water pumps always seem to resist repair. Great video on the rebuild!

[@SupermanJH68]

Years ago I worked for a small earthmoving contractor who bought a used JD 455 track loader. He spent THOUSANDS keeping that thing going. Meanwhile, we needed a skid loader, a bigger excavator, and another dozer. Learned from that experience. Me and track loaders don't get along. Great video, enjoy watching the engine rebuild process.

It's been extremely informative to watch you work on your projects,your verbal delivery is matter of fact,which is refreshing,back in 1968 I had the chance to work in my school holidays at JJ Motors here in Gore NZ my uncle was a diesel mechanic,it was very interesting work and I liked the smell of diesel ,now the only problem was it being winter and we would be called out to the farms to service Massey Ferguson tractor's etc,freezing temperatures and I hate snow and ice ,so unfortunately my diesel days came to an end and I opted for an apprenticeship in Refrigeration,still out doors but inside for the most of the time,looking forward to more of your videos ,thanks again.
