Hey lance. Mc5 bus air brake work

Mc5 bus dd3 brake work

[@johnpurdum8126]

I know you can't wait until your shop is built! Especially seeing you tuff it out on a snow covered work bench! You guys are troopers!

[@BusGreaseMonkey]

I’m just glad i could get down there and work

[@soillife1]

Good thing Lance got this bus down to you when he did. These are critical issue to deal with, fix correctly. You will have these isdues and areas better than new. Thanks for sharing 👍 😊

[@skipbolinger1370]

That sux working in the snow and ice you guys are great my fingers would have froze and fell off my hands really enjoy your videos thanx

[@gotany1]

I rebuilt my heat exchangers on my boat which were alloy, I used the chemical anchor resin, as it has sand or metal, goes rockhard in a short amount of time and easy to shape, great for getting out of a problem with alloy.

[@BusGreaseMonkey]

Yes but that lip holds the brake chamber together and is under an incredible amount of force

[@grantw.whitwam9948]

Traffic light, way to go.

[@siemenstraffic]

That traffic light is a Eagel Eaglelux KB63 “Short Fin” from the 1950's! A real collectors item!

[@modeltrainproductions3167]

Some buses air tanks have air hose fittings on them and you can use the bus air supply to power the air tools.

[@RickDominick69]

love the hand-blown glass windshield on the golf cart

[@BusGreaseMonkey]

It’s nice in cold wet weather

[@notajp]

I wish our snow up here in Indiana was melting away like that........... Still have drifts a couple of feet deep in the yard....

[@edwarddeyojr.793]

I bet every time someone calls Lance,,,,he cringes poor guy...got a nice rig tho.......😃

[@LanceDammeyer]

yes, you are correct - if you know Scott, he isn't a small talk guy....I do take a deep breath when I see a call from him...

[@aussiebloke609]

Poor Lance just can't catch a break. :-(

[@silasmarner7586]

Allow me to delicately put it that there is some deferred maintenance going on.. and,yeah, also, he can't catch a break.

[@LanceDammeyer]

I'm OK with these items, it's why we are digging into them.

[@philgee6901]

Better to know and fix it than have it fail on the road!

[@mach1driver960]

Oh man, I thought that was a spring brake chamber for a minute.... had a mini heart attack when he started taking that apart!

[@BusGreaseMonkey]

Don’t do this at home ;) unless it’s a dd3

[@nferraro222]

Oh..working in the snow, on brakes and suspension. I remember that. It's fun.

[@snoopdogie187]

A few days ago I did an oil change in the snow, and then today I'm doing another one on some fresh snow. At least its only oil changes and nothing more major.

[@harriettedaisy2233]

I just spent 3 days working on my truck doing a 3 hour job because of the snow'

[@nferraro222]

@@harriettedaisy2233 My low point was a Saturday in the snow doing upper and lower control arms on my daily driver. Can't remember a more miserable job.

[@briandavis9975]

Love the light

[@ericouellette5293]

Having too much fun over there. Now going to get drag racing videos of buses going up the hill lol.

[@jong7269]

Snow left on the bench your working on.

[@wayneconkey3404]

Can you switch those brake chambers out for modern style ones? Is the plumbing way different? Seem like unless you had to change the tredle valve would be a cost savings. Love the channel

[@scottbaker1018]

Your gonna need a cement starting line and a burnout box 🤣

[@marty0715yt]

Hey Lance!!!!!!!!

[@sidallen685]

Can’t you replace the DD3 chambers with maxi-chambers?

[@brentfoster9138]

The drive axle area on an MCI doesn’t really have the space for a longer maxi chamber.

[@sidallen685]

@@brentfoster9138 That’s what I was thinking

[@anthonyyoung7344]

That bus is in really bad shape under neath to be such a nice bus.

[@BusGreaseMonkey]

New airbags, shocks, wheel bearings, brake cans and it will be great

[@marksmith-ew7ir]

Place poles each side also by start line just incase white line fades over time

[@timatwell3728]

Can't you adapt truck brake cans to fit on the bus? be a hole lot cheaper if you could maxi cans under $100.00 . so better print up some time slips for the racing and put not responsible for any damage or injuries on back of slip

[@ko9446]

Sometimes space and clearance is a issue. We had a MCI that we couldn’t swap over due to clearance.

[@brentfoster9138]

Space constraints are the main reason MCI kept using DD3s up till the very late ‘90s. Everyone else had gone maxi cans long before then.

[@brianherron5400]

Start line with lights, bus start line 😁

[@heartland96a]

Man you guys have had such a hard winter , hope this is the last snowstorm for the year

[@ServantofYaHi777]

I wonder what a heat gun would do to that wind screen?

[@macbeth2354]

Make some new vents? Lol

[@snoopdogie187]

Just use a plastic ice scraper, that is their purpose in life anyway.

[@ServantofYaHi777]

@@snoopdogie187 I was wondering if the heat gun would tighten it up ?

[@ChiefStones]

Poor lance!

[@stevedunford7632]

Hi Scott. Want to buy an Olight here in UK (don't expect the code will work) and there are about 30 different models. I expect you have tried a few of them so which is your favourite 'go to' model?

[@nightsailor1]

BGM - what we just went through in Texas was worse than the worst. Please construct your new domicile with good alternate heat like a true pot bellied stove or such. I was camped out in my den with only a gas fireplace (which sux) and all the blankets.

[@hamdude2109]

APPROXIMATELY HOW MUCH $$ IN PARTS TODAY?

[@BusGreaseMonkey]

I don’t know but I’m sure it was over 1k

[@RobinMOrosz]

Lance will no doubt sell it to someone for 75k or better after you done all the fnk work!

[@tylerlee6656]

Can't wait for the light to be used

[@silasmarner7586]

And if you lubricate all potential seize points annually all the time I bet that that does not happen.

[@donmoore7785]

It may be my imagination, but your assistant seemed to be grumbling and not wanting his facial expression to be seen as you said that there was no air on the pad today... lol Or, looking ahead a few minutes @2:45 it may have been the knowledge that the work bench has a few inches of snow and ice on it. You guys sure are hardy. Workshop - who needs a workshop?

[@marksmith-ew7ir]

Making a mini race slope lol 😁

[@wtbm123]

Cool

[@alwaysbepreparedwithjeff3245]

thanks for the stream

[@ServantofYaHi777]

A little Higher , easy for you to say.

[@topcrust7326]

I think NTSB is going to be interested in you time trials . LOL LOL

[@BusGreaseMonkey]

You mean NHRA ;)

[@topcrust7326]

Why do they call races and bearings , cups and cones on new buses ? It drives me crazy .

[@georgedunham6833]

Wow I have not replaced a diaphragm in years it’s much cheaper time and labor to replace the can

[@BusGreaseMonkey]

Not on a dd3 it’s not cheaper.

[@LanceDammeyer]

@@BusGreaseMonkey DD3's run about $600+ rebuilt.

[@wayj2002]

Skipped 16 ads just to watch content smh

[@BusGreaseMonkey]

According to KZbin one before, one 7 min in and one after. 3. No way are they paying me for 16. At least they were skippable

[@dougpenrod8867]

Why didn't you buy something that you could ride in snow mud ok unless the cart was xtra cheap

[@BusGreaseMonkey]

1 we aren’t supposed to get snow here. 2” average per year and up until this storm all the snow we got melted the next day. 2 the golf cart was free and it handles the all season conditions just fine. 3 it’s electric and charging off the sun for free with our solar.
