It's very refreshing to to see young men working on this equipment and learning 🙌. We need the next generation to learn this trade. Using your hands to fix thing is something young people need. It's something that isn't taught anymore in school. I remember having trade classes. My first experience with welding was in high school. Not a class anymore. It's stuff our young people need to have access to if they are interested. Good to see this. These young men will be thankful.

[@SeanChYT]

Excellent episode. The chemistry between the actors are outstanding. Props to the casting department.

[@billtodd6509]

You men have got to have one of the best heavy equipment equipment shops I have seen. It is really enjoyable watching heavy equipment being put back to work and operating the way it should. My neighbor took his 977 to the dealer to get some rollers replaced in the undercarriage and they suggested that he take it to an independent shop because it would be so expensive to do because of all the difficulty of the job. Mind you, these are the people who are supposed to have all the special tools, etc. Thanks for showing how its done, Bill

[@latisimusd]

Me thinks Uncle Scott likes to get away from the desk occasionally. Can see why - that looked like fun.

I've done the same drill test once or twice and the best way to find out I've found to determine what way they are going was putting a ziptie on the socket

@@gregshearer423 I'm 70 yr's old, reminds me of when I moved from Long Island, New York (Born & Raised, left @ 29 yr's old) to the pacific northwest, 50 miles north of the SAN-FRAN-FREAK-O of the north, formerly known as Seattle. Of course I had brought all of my hand-tools one being a hand electric circle-saw. Imagine my surprise when I first HEARD & Seen a "Worm-Driven-Saw." (purchased one the next day.) I learned at the time (late 1970's) basically East of the Mississippi River, Electric Circle-Saw, West of the Mississippi River, "Worm-Driven-Saw." So, with what I put above this question, the following will make sense, what part of the country are you from. I luv that "gas-axe," *NOTICE* I'm stealing that. Now to be know as a *Gas-Axe-1000.*

I was never much interested in Dozers, I knew nothing about them, but I do believe that after watching this channel for a couple years I could quite likely be able to have a reasonably sensible conversation with someone who does know a thing or two about Dozers. Well done C&C.

[@swallowinn4410]

Clint you have a good understanding of human nature. It helps workplace moral to have some fun while at work.Snap-on vs Milwaukie. Very interesting. Not very scientific but Fun. I worked at a major corporation for more than 30 years. Somewhere around year 20 things had changed enough there was not much fun In the workplace. It made the remaining years much more difficult than they should have been. Keep up the great attitude and good videos. Tell Scott he needs suction cup shoes to handle that big impact gun, so he won't lose his balance if another bolt breaks.

[@unclescottccequipment]

I was hoping he would have edited that little scene out!! 🤣

[@chrisbayus5189]

That is some CLAPPED OUT track!

[@rogerwiley7269]

Rebuilt a lot of 450-650G transmissions. Every crew had at least one. Almost always had to replace 1-2 clutch hub (the most used) except for one operator who could finish grade at 60 mph. He took out the 3-4 hub. Great videos.

[@brianhoward6896]

I like Uncle Scott and the "Gloves" can really tell who is used to working in the shop and who is not! Maybe Scott is afraid to get "sausage hands" like Mr. Kevin!

[@everestyeti]

I'm sure when I was a drinker in my younger days, I drank something the same colour as that oil. Looks like the concoction they gave to Robert Mitchum in Eldarado. And what's with Uncle Scott, he actually got his genes and t-shirt dirty. 😂🤣👍

[@unclescottccequipment]

They are still trying to figure out what's up with me! 😂

[@almaylin464]

That is a clear gear fatigue failure. The best explanation I was ever given on how to determine gear failure analysis was if looks like a smooth concrete it is fatigue “ Micro fracturing “ if it looks like a broken cinder block then it is an abuse type failure. Have built many transmissions in my time. Working for a Mack and Freightliner dealers for 25yrs

[@henrykaiser3519]

I like the in depth videos that show how the equipment comes a part and what it takes for it to be put back together. I would hate to even think about writing the check to pay for it.

Clinton I don’t know how often you oil your air impact. But I’ve learned in the past when they hammer like that but won’t break the bolt loose, try a couple drops of oil in the gun and see if it helps.

[@BrewdasDM7419]

Wrap a string around the adapter, see which way it winds up. I bet a dollar, that thin piece of metal was sheared off the edge of that metal on metal seal, because it wasn't aligned right when it was assembled last. 🤘😎
