Warren, I love your videos. Makes me wish my Step dad was still alive. He taught me what I know about David Brown Tractors and the twins known as FORDSON MAJOR(gas) and POWER FORDSON MAJOR(diesel).

Hey Warren, I know this is an older video, but you should check out the homemade tire installing rig Logger Wade made up. It’s a roller arm that you lift with your crane. You can lift off the tire, and when you re- install it , you can rotate the tire to line up the bolts. Looks pretty slick, and no back injuries. Great channel. Love your content. Cheers from Canada.

That's a big ass tire....There is a lot of skidders around here cropping,raking,bedding pine trees (Taylor County,Fl.)....The tires on these are huge. I am truly enjoying your videos and have learned a lot from you.

Warren, watching you manhandling that tire was like watching somebody wrestle a tiger and win all 3 pins. Impressive, from your skills, to your humility, to your terrier like determination!

Great video young man! I would love to take over an old building like that and operate from it. It may be out of the way but it is also out of sight of thieves too so hopefully more safer. That building is an opportunity from where I am sat but the reality may be really different!

Great video 👍👍 iam a forrest worker in sweden,, drive a komatsu 895 and a tigercat 635 sometimes. Here its a law that says when mechanics are out and fix the machine there have to be at least one guy or owner of the forrest machine company with him for safety. The mechanic isnt aloud to work alone in the forrest.

I have been going back to see the old ones trying to catch up, dude wish could help you what tool or thing can I send? I know one thing a 2.5 gal water can and holder to mount on truck would help.

western truck and tractor repair yes went back to see the bearing and spindle was outside because the bearing feel off and when you removed the stops you used screwdriver and the hub was out side of the ring gear when you torqued the keeper plate bolts on other ring gear the bearing was inside the ring gear also video went from you hameing up inner nut and bloting the nut then jumped to completed hub ready to install caliper for breaks so dont know ?

Okay watched a third time the inner plate of the rusted ring gear,the bearing was outside of ring gear and when you installed it in clean ring gear, the bearing hub was inside. but did see you put ring gear in hub it looked like you had turned it so the bearing was outside. then you installed nut and lock bolted it then video jumped to you putting on caliper with hub completed assembly. any way. no big deal you got it done and by yourself. I was worried that the tire was going to hurt you by fallig on you, you must be strong but hey dont want to see you hurt. know you got to do what you do but dame you fighting them wheels they hurt you.
