I think you are making progress. Little bit at a time, but still it's happening. Waiting for parts is usually what holds me up. Thanks for the video. See you later.

Hey Ross. The back section still telescopes but just for swinging the tongue back and forth. Great old baler. Thanks Ross.

Every time I replace the disc brake pads or rotors on the front of my '55 Chevy I change the bearings. The front spindles came off of a 1968 Olds Cutlass. They have the same steering geometry as the original drum brake spindles but have the ears upon which you attach the brake caliper. You are doing a great job. That was a quality baler when your grandpa bought it and you are keeping it in a good state of repair. You are lucky the needles on that thing are not bent. I would blow all that grass off of the inside with a leaf blower.

I miss my old 14T square baler, rarely missed a tie. Main reason why they didn't install grease fittings on the wheel hubs were, at least from what I was told years ago, engineers felt that it would be too easy to rip them off the hub. If you get those shields off of a 14T they're interchangeable, I don't remember exactly what changed between the 14T & 24T other than I believe one offered wire tie the other didn't but, don't quote me on that. I've never packed a bearing the way you've do, always put a bunch in the palm of my hand and packed that way, I'm aware of the bearing packer tool, don't care for them since I've seen them waste a lot of grease before it fully packs a bearing unlike just using the palm of your hand.

You had less sadness then i did. My truck had a wheel seal that started leaking, and when i pulled the hub off, the outside bearing fell into a million pieces. Those house trailer tires are a bunch of sadness to. We had a trailer with them and it was so much sadness that i switched them to 16" radial tires and most of the sadness went away

Twine square balers are rare as hens teeth in my area in western Indiana. Everybody wants wire tied bales. Used to have a 337 wire baler. Rarely ever had a busted bale.

I need to do that with my 338 JD baler, haven't done that yet but I have only used it two or three times in 10 years with less than 150 bales. Now my 2020 round baler may need that done too, it's ran a couple of hundred bales a year. Good to see you put the grease zerks in, I'll have to do that too. Thanks for sharing the video, enjoyed watching, have a good night!

Our 14 T has dual wheels on the knotter side. Yup we have zerks on all of our equipment hubs. Just makes sense.
