Harvesting Corn In The Mud!
Рет қаралды 208,533
5 жыл бұрынThings never move as smoothly on the farm as we would like, however, things continue to get done on a daily basis. Everything is breaking as usual and there have been a couple mishaps that have made some pretty decent size messes. Hopefully we are done dealing with heights for the year because I have climbed up and down the bins what feels like a million times. Due to the snow, we have been able to catch up on some much needed maintenance on the semis.

You ask why the videos are interesting. There are very few farms left in the US. Most people live in the city. We don't see where our food comes from and we don't have to work for our food. Yes, we go to work and get paid and buy food. We don't grow food like your farm does. This makes the everyday life you live very different from the rest of us. We also don't get to see a farm that was created many generations ago either. Next, the about of stuff you have clear off your farm is amazing. The transformation looks great. In conclusion, keeping telling people about God. I know your words have helped me remember how much he loves each and everyone of us. Your farm is proof that God has blessed your family for many generations.

Little late and I'm sure at least 150 comments answered this, but the wheels on semis are so big to give you a little more torque. Wasn't that long ago they didn't have power steering. Also, keep up the videos! I'm almost caught up but started from about 2 months ago, went back to the start and catching up from there

The big steering wheels were needed on the older trucks without power steering. The older trucks all had them even if they had power steering. The newer ones have smaller steering wheels. Drive one without power steering and you'll know why they have big steering wheels. Driving down the road you can't tell much difference but backing and driving around slowly you need the leverage of the big wheel.
@jeffreywood9346 4 жыл бұрын
The steering wheels are so big so if your power steering pump blows you can get enough leverage to turn

@@ColeTheCornstar the bigger steering wheel just makes it easier to turn when there is no power steering. Same concept of when you put a breaker barn on a wrench or something when you have a stubborn bolt or nut. Ive got a couple old school classic rigs with big steering wheels and no power steering. Thats why they called is strong arm steering if you've ever heard that term before.

Why do semi's have such large steering wheels? Before there was power steering there was what was called Arm Strong Power Steering, the bigger the steering wheel the easier it was to steer the truck. They are still large because if the power steering goes out you are still able to steer the truck to a safe place to stop. Cheers...

There should be a rubber hose with a grease fitting zirk as you call it hanging out if the bell housing to send grease to the clutch brake at least my Pete 379 has one so on your Volvo might have a different set up but there will be some way to get grease to the clutch brake and I have never herd you mention the clutch brake on your major services and they do need to be replaced you can tell if it needs replaced if you put the clutch pedal to the floor for a couple seconds and it grinds when you pull it into gear that means the clutch brake is shot I have driven trucks for 28 years so I am telling you the truth not sending you on a wild goose chase
