STUCK Tire Is A Big Problem

[@Kinghauler2012]

Just a tip for installing that gear box. Grab a couple bolts of same diameter as ones used to mount the drive but 2 or 3 inches longer. Cut the heads off the bolts, use a zip disc and make a slot across diameter of the end you just cut that will fit a flat screwdriver. You just made pilot studs. When installing a new drive, thread the studs into it and they will help guide and support the drive as you get it mounted. Once a few other bolts are in you just remove the studs. That’s why I slot the end of stud, just in case it’s a bit stubborn coming out and can’t do by hand. A trick I’ve used a thousand times in my 35 yrs as a heavy equipment mechanic.

[@n6st]

Great tip!

[@Kinghauler2012]

@@n6st as a field service mechanic working alone constantly, you have to think outside the box all the time and find ways to help or be that third hand you need. Where there’s a will there’s a way. :)

Laura, as an old guy who worked and played outside a lot in my younger years, I beg you to wear hats and sun-shield type long-sleeves and pants. If you do, your dermatologist will thank you in fifty years and you will thank me (even though I'll be long gone). Also, if I thought you'd wear them, I'd send you a bundle of work gloves (the thin ones, not the awkward heavy leather ones). I want you to stay healthy and cheerful for your kids and grandkids.

You must safely support a load on a jack. I have used high lift jacks 40 years. You need to spray jacking mechanism with Wd40 often, use a large base plate, especially on soft dirt. Use 4x4’s or larger as you jack, so if jack fails, load won’t fall Al the way to ground

Here is something that might help the next time you replace a gear box. Get a couple long bolts the same size as the mounting bolts and cut the heads of the bolts off. You may want to cut a screw driver slot on the bolts where you cut the heads off. Screw those two bolts into the new gear box. When you go to mount the new gear box, just slide the headless bolts thru the mounting holes and they will help hold the gear box in place while you screw a couple of the mounting bolts in.

[@earlbrown]

The lack of anti-seize on all those pivot fasteners is still KILLING ME!!!!!! :)

@@tsmartin I would keeps sticks of all thread on the farm (like most farms). Cut off studs for every hole and install them on the pivot with lock washers and nuts. Makes it easy to install.

I always fear the worst and imagine some pin shearing or the jack tipping and they're under it holding a gearbox up when the whole pivot section comes down on them. It'd be nice if they brought a jack stand out to the field to support the weight while they're working on it especially kicking off tires and gearboxes but maybe the tire being buried in the ground kept it more secure and in place.

[@mikebrewer4307]

To make installing your gear boxes easier get two bolts that are longer and cut the heads off, cut a grove in the end to be able to unscrew it with a screwdriver and grind a tapper on the end so the slide into the holes easy. That will center and align the gear box quick and easy. I make them (starter bolts) for anything and everything. Love watching you two work and farm together.

Great video and an education on what makes the pivot operate. I wondered if you used any Anti-Seize compound on the lugs for the wheels and the other bolts you replaced on the gearbox.

[@charlesb4267]

Yes, that or heavy gear oil or grease would also work ok on the bolts and studs to keep them from rusting up until the next time they need to come apart. Its tough in an environment like that where its struggling get the job done and its heavy and fumbling with bolts and then putting lube on them makes it harder yet and of course everything wants to fall down into the dirt. But yes, put nothing on the threads and its a guarantee that rust will settle in as after all its raining down on those parts constantly.

[@1926mymy]

Never seize? Why not?

[@charlesb4267]

@@1926mymy I didn't say it was not a good application because it would be but I also realize its very expensive when applying to such a pile of bolts as this would be a snippet of what would be repaired in a year and also struggling around in the dirt and the can falling over ( like his tool case did ... ) , getting contaminated with dirt etc is very real. That was why I was listing some alternatives, be it the grease gun or an oil squirt can that could be used. There also is that issue and perhaps more so with copper coat of over torquing bolts in general but wheel bolts as a theme, of course even oil or grease will do that too to some degree but copper coat is worse. Prices of everything have gone up but items like copper coat and the silver anti seize are very expensive here in Canada

Hot parts laying in the sun, blister on your thumb, handling greasy gearboxes, a pair of gloves might be a handy thing to add to your pivot repair supply checklist Laura!

It was the end tower. The end tower controls the speed of the system. The rest of the machine was just waiting for the end tower to move. There is timer in the second to end tower that should shut off the machine if that tower doesn't move for a time (10-20 minutes). It looked like machine was at full speed and it wouldn't take long to dig that hole. Either the timer didn't have time to shut the pivot down or the timer failed or was bypassed.

[@scuss2]

I thought a Fiberglass handled tool would be great until I got blisters. I was taught as a young man to take a brand new hardwood handled farm/garden tool and using sandpaper, sand the varnish finish off the wood. Sand it smooth where your hand will be while using it. I just do the whole handle. Then apply an oil of your choice to that handle. The oils in our skin help but monthly maintenance helps even more. A rainy day job. I also very rarely use a shovel without gloves on a hot day. I also don't do a hot metal job without leather gloves and rags, If I was Lara I would have used Grants shirt for a rag. I can't believe as much experience these 2 have that they don't use proper equipment when heading out into a field.
