Heat at the battery cable is caused by resistance. Resistance is caused by dirt, corrosion, or looses connection. When you cut the rubber boot off the cable the corrosion was pretty evident. I would suggest replacing the cables. The connection blocks you said you didn’t want to mess with also look pretty suspect so it would probably be a good idea to replace them as well.

[@bigguydiy2184]

That corrosion you see on the battery cable I see regularly on boats kept in a salt water environment. Once the salty water intrudes the battery cables, it climbs thru the cable rotting the copper out. Its a green and white color and the copper gets covered in this powdery stuff and becomes brittle. Salt and copper do not mix and because of this corrosion, it creates weaker wires and weaker connections. That's why the battery terminal is hot, bad connectivity. A temp fix is clean the battery terminal and cable ends, use dielectric grease to cover the cable end and re-attach. Dielectric grease will help fend off corrosion for a longer period of time and give better connectivity. Best fix, just replace the cables. Clean copper, clean start, no heating of the battery terminals or cables. Pending on severity, I have replaced several cables. New cables reduce the risk of a fire or battery terminals melting because of corrosion/bad connection.

[@kennethfeld6639]

When you have any electrical circuit - where you have resistance the by product of current flow is heat. So, where there is a heated joint, there is something there not allowing current flow (electrical flow) so that is where you start. We use infrared cameras and go thru electrical panels and look for hot spots just to prevent things like that happening.

[@arthura.applegatejr.7145]

Hay Zack, hope you see this, it will help you next time you need to remove your wheels. On all our trucks with aluminum wheels we had a neoprene spacer. You put it on between the wheel and the steel drum to prevent the electrolyses that basically welds the aluminum wheel to the steel drum. You should have one on each hub unless you have steel inner wheels on the rear axles in which case it should be between the steel and aluminum wheels.

[@acesonflush346]

Seems to convenient, I like playing with anti seize

[@DanEvens-tb1tg]

That thing with pulling on the wheel with the strap behind the quad. I would never do it. If the wheel releases suddenly we could wind up never seeing another MF video. Straps like that hold a lot of energy. Especially when he took a run at it. If you must force a wheel off in such a manner, you want to either use prying of some kind, or the hammer he eventually switched to. Don't use straps. I want to see many many more MF vids. And I want Zack to have all his parts intact and in good shape.

As a 20+ year diesel mechanic is entertaining at the least to watch others, but i to applaud your excellent effort. But after seeing those cables I agree with others here that they definitely need to be replaced. Also your wheels are " hub pilot" wheels meaning the lip on the hub and the hole in the center of the wheel are what center them, torque the nuts to 550 ftlbs.

[@michaelbrown6241]

G'day Zach, I'm a bit late to the party, just a tip with your tension wrench, place your hands in the middle of the knurled handle when you tension, beleive it or not shortening your grip and reducing the length of the handle reduces the actual torque applied to the nut and increases your effort, 6 inches makes a big difference (so she said) ✌️😁

[@user-tq1bs2fj9h]

A low voltage charger is also called a battery tender. They’re very useful for when you want to keep your vehicle battery/ies topped off before you start it again.

[@kevinbeach8915]

Suggestion would be to change the positive and negative battery cables from the starter to the batteries. You likely have corrosion inside the cable. Also charge each battery separately or if boosting place the charger cables across ALL batteries. So the neg on the first one and the positive on the 3rd one to ensure all 3 are being charged. Check to make sure you have shunt cables between the batteries as well

[@coryhart6533]

Baking soda and water for corrosion. Paint brush on.

[@dryroasted5599]

Heat is caused by resistance, and resistance usually means corrosion. Clean the terminals with a wire brush, and spray them with a passivating/ preventative compound. Won't stop it, but it will slow it down. Edit: clean the terminals on the starter, too.

[@typhoonjenkins8330]

[@wjonthetrail]

On your batteries a bad connection loose or corroded will make a lot of heat ware as those with a solid connection do not change temperature or vary little

[@gandalf87264]

Hiya Zack. At least two people have already correctly replied that the heat at your terminals is caused by resistance and they give very good advice on how to resolve that issue if that is the case. It makes the battery seem flat when in actual fact it is not. Another consideration to consider is: The connection between the battery terminal and the cells inside the battery might also have corroded or come loose which can also cause resistance. It is extremely dangerous. It can an has caused fires. Tip: If you want to purchase a second hand battery, ask them to do a load test or a CCA test in front of you. Then again, they say the battery was reconditioned (Supposedly), but it is after a second hand reconditioned battery, things can go wrong with it after sale. I recommend, just buy new batteries and dispense with the bother.

[@ronaldsunny960]

We use a very large screw driver pry bar to lift the tire

[@rodeastman5465]

Zach, check your starter solenoids. When they go bad they will drain the batteries down to nothing. The solenoid will get a pitted contact and develop carbon pits on it's surface making starting nearly impossible.

[@tamiller84]

Feels like Jeff Foxworthy ... "You might be a Millennial Farmer if, you use one vehicle to remove the tire on another vehicle" Thanks for all the great videos

[@Plyst3]

For future Zach, get yourself a long breaker bar with a bent end to get up under the tire, and long enough so your not bent half way over and can have some leverage, that way you can pick the tire up and pull or pick it up and align it better. I've seen the mechanics at shops for my company do tires quite quickly this way. Otherwise. Those wheels look sharp

[@musicbme]

Zach, install a cutout switch so that you are not draining the batteries so much. I had to do that on my boat as it was doing the same thing. After I installed the switch, no problems.

[@cybersurfer2010]

[@paulwalker9921]

Battery Tender is a good trickle charger, maintainer. Been using them for several years now. Batteries seem to last longer and at today’s prices the payback for the battery tender is fairly quick.

[@Disis960]

As a heavy truck tech, I can confirm Zach is not a heavy truck tech lol. A+ for effort and not giving up on that stuck wheel lol. Definitely a dangerous way of going at that wheel though, OSHA just had a stroke watching you do that with a quad and a strap lol. That battery cable is getting hot because it is corroded somewhere causing high resistance. That is likely your voltage draw as well, which is why that truck kills a new set of batteries in no time. I'd start with replacing those cables and cleaning up anywhere you see a battery cable connection point before replacing the starter. Even if it's a smaller gauge wire, it could cause you these issues. A wire can carry the voltage needed but not the amperage sometimes meaning it just can't carry the load that it needs to, like turning the starter over fast enough to start the engine. Honestly, I think your best bet would be to take it to a shop you trust and have them make you new cables for it, clean up all other connection points and they can clean up that rats nest of cables in the battery box as well. Those wheels turned out pretty damn good too and I'm sure those headlights will be a lot better than the factory ones.

[@Disis960]

Also, use a long pry bar or semi truck tire iron for putting those wheels on. Will save your back a lot of hurting the next day.

Hey Zach….couple things..I definitely enjoy your videos…if I can offer any helpful advice in regards to your truck. Invest in a good wheel dolly…they are a back saver and way less difficult than trying to lift tires up when trying to take them off….especially for trailer tires. Also like others have mentioned and I’m sure you know…good clean tight connections are definitely helpful and good cables for sure. I’ve found over the years that if new batteries don’t do the trick….change your starter. A new 39 MT starter will make a world of difference when you go to twist the tail of that Cat. Spins way faster and wayyyy lighter than the old 42 MT starters. Best of luck! Keep up the great videos!

[@eugenemoor1570]

If the terminal was tight and clean the chances are the battery post was corroded away on the inside of the battery making a bad connection and causing the heat due to high internal resistance.

[@Uro666]

Zach, I always see you having confusion with finding the right hydraulic hoses for the right remotes especially when you have a bunch of them on an implement. Get some zip ties in a bunch of colours (if you have coloured remotes get those colours), then for each pair of hoses put one zip tie on the input hose and two zip ties on the return using the same colour - then you will know which way around they go just by looking at the zip ties and if you have coloured remotes use the same colour of zip ties on those pairs of hoses as the remote has, next time you go to hook up it'll be a whole load easier.

Just a note, you should re-torque your nuts after your first load. you can use your big air gun until it bangs the first time. You might not want to torque to 550lb, or you might end up breaking the studs when you change your tires next time (if they are on for years like most farm wheels). Also, if you didn't put the plastic anti corrosion discs on before you mounted the tire you might regret the corrosion the aluminum and steel will make.

We put them on all the trucks with aluminum rims... including the new chassis we get from the factory! Love the content.... I'm hooked!

[@bcrusher1979]

A trick to get stuck wheels off that I use is loosen all the lug nuts, then thread them back on until they touch the rim and then back them off just a little bit, maybe half a turn or 1/8" of space between nut and rim. Then set the truck back down on the ground and drive forward and back hitting the breaks and this should work to break the seal. For front steer wheels sometimes all you need to do is turn the wheels left and right and you can feel them break loose. With the trucks weight on them of course.

I think some anti seize on the wheels would help for next time removing!

He did that. When Onyx was standing there.

[@ericrudgers6816]

@@dryroasted5599 he only did the studs. Not the hub

Never ever and I mean EVER put anti seize on wheel studs. You will never have proper torque.

@austin paxman Wasn't talking about on the wheel studs! Just on the back of the wheel anywhere it contacts the stee hub.
