You got that right!

I've been told warm up the machine....raise the loader arms and get it within operating range. Now....operating range is a very wide mark on the dipstick. This machine also has a "low hydraulic fluid" light on it....once I got it back together somehow something went wrong with the linkage too! Ahhhh....I guess it's better than buying a new one for $50k

@@StoneyRidgeFarmer manuals.deere.com/cceomview/OMKV11661_J0/Output/kv11661j011.html On this manual it says check it cold with all cylinders retracted. Do you have a owners manual for that machine? Otherwise you can probably find one online.

Very true

How about no dog pooping in the house?

shew....I've got alot of equipment down right now....at least we got one project out of the way

Editing our video right now buddy...should be out this afternoon!

@@StoneyRidgeFarmer woop woop! looking forward to it!

Awesome! Wooooo!

I'll bet it's more like friday night fish "freeze" this time of year lol

I like to joke and kid about the metric system....get's folks all riled up lol

super clean!! I cleaned it all up after the install...just didn't show it because the video was gonna be 45 mins long lol

yeah...man that thing is super handy!

Probably just some dry rot, but who knows :)

In my limited experience on hydraulic systems, the filter and housing often get hammered with vibration its whole life so they are often my first leak check areas.

@@jaredkean7841 the hydrulic pump on deeres are night merrior to work at wich hope not on josh's because it would suck

Also funny how it was right beside the filter....which begs the question...did someone pry on the hose trying to remove the filter and cause this? HMMMMMMM???

According to my JD dealer HyGuard is what I should use...but I might need to look into that..seems that a less expensive alternative might not hurt lol

2nd this use a pice of cardboard or paper cause you don't want oil under the skin.

You are exactly right Can you say gangrene because that's how you yet gangrene lol

Yeah definitely use something other then hand you can always get anpther peace of paper not another hand Or not to mention the skin damage if your just nicked by it Or if it gets in the blood stream No problem with you doing your own stuff but just be safe

Still a fan tho love the videos

the hydrulic pump for deere skid steer hydroulic pump for them are $4,500 to $6,000and $1,100 to $1,500 from my kubota dealer

If ur talking about the white Jeep Wrangler...that was a fix & Flip job...if ur talking about Dad's old willys...it's sitting right there in the shop ....more to come for sure....just gotta get back on the project

Stoney Ridge Farmer yes the white wrangler sweet! I've been looking for an older wrangler to fix up for my kids first ride. Keep up the great content watching from Suffolk Va!

amen! Any tool company that paints stuff black should be outlawed bhahhahah....tell ya a funny one..I have a tamping/rock busting tool for digging fence post holes...it's black....lost it in the grass for 3 years!!! Found it with the bush hog!! Painted it industrial tractor yellow and havn't lost it since!

We use the one in Mt. Airy and also the one in Statesville is pretty great too! Small world.

Martinsville is about 20 mins from the house

All easily accessible online in most cases my brotha

well..the pressure should remain constant...the line that we replaced was working fine until it ruptured...so therefore all the lines should work fine. Problem with this machine is that it sat for a number of years...and the lines dried out. I anticipate more problems in the future

Carson....I wish it was coming tomorrow buddy....but there have been some recent changes here on the farm that are financially restricting. I nearly lost my farm due to some circumstances beyond my control....I'm working hard to build back up what I need just to survive right now....knocking out many many projects that need attention here on the farm...time's are tough right now

you can find them most anywhere

Priorities my brotha....gotta get the essential equipment back up and running first...many many mechanical projects coming

@@StoneyRidgeFarmer thank you for replying

I disagree. with the lift arms on the ground the lift cylinders are fully extended and will be full of hydraulic oil. If you top off the hydraulic reservoir the tank would overfill when the arms are lowered

@@kenkoepke9764 idk what u are trying to say but it doesnt make sense everything is designed to be checked with the boom and bucket on the ground if you check it with the cylinders extended and then topped the fluid off the hydraulic tank would over flow because the oil getting returned to the tank .this isnt a matter of opinion that's just how stuff is designed

Saw the old hose....well the new hose looks just like it without the hole lol

I had a friend help me build it who has all the hose making equipment...happened to have a 3/4 inch hose that we could use...so the fittings were the only expense...around $120 or so. It would have been a $250 hose if I didn't have the friend to help me out

Brand new tires have about 50 hours on them...the tracks are great for winter work in the mud....but they tear up the tires, land and driveway and I can't load up on my steel deck trailer...so they're purpose specific for sure

Great idea

You got that right!

I cut it out...was pretty boring...this was a total of 6 hours of footage trimmed down to 1/2 hour...lots of stuff didn't make the final product my brotha

I'm honestly betting....and I hate to poke fingers....but it's funny how close the damage on this hose was to the filter that was just changed.....was the filter stuck and someone used the hose to pry on the filter.....causing the failure? Hmmmm makes me wonder

Great point!

lol...if I take the hose off and turn on the machine it will blast hydraulic fluid all over creation lol

@@StoneyRidgeFarmer But, the hose will not leak. All the rest of that stuff is just mechanical problems.

yep....video review/overview coming soon

@@StoneyRidgeFarmer can't wait

It's sitting right beside me in the shop there....essential equipment must be cared for first my brotha

@@StoneyRidgeFarmer well I know that lol but haven’t seen anything on it or a video in forever so was just wondering

no idea....none of my JD equipment is computer controlled...Pre-DEF mechanical

You know what...I did drop it...and cleaned it up...re-installed..didn't need to do it but I'm glad I did...it was full of pine needles

yep...you can see it sitting right there beside the skid loader. Willys is recreation...I was raised to get my work done before I start my recreation my brotha. I have 5 more tractor problems here on the farm that I must take care of before we can get back on the willys project

sure would have helped with the mess ! AHHH!! Thanks...You are right!

@@StoneyRidgeFarmer Old throw rugs are nice, too. A little bit of padding is nice.

Peter...I quit watching news channels all together and am a much happier person for it. Time's are changing for sure...it's a shame when the news media has the sky constantly falling...I think it's causing the American people to doubt and be on guard ready to fight each other. Completely ridiculous drama....my cows don't seem to mind either way...nor do my chickens. I was talking to a neighbor who remembered the great depression days....he said to me "It didn't matter, depression or no depression ....we were just as poor" I hope this channel is a place for folks to escape the politics of the world....at least we'll have one place that folks aren't shoving ideals and religion down your throat when ya come to the Stoney Ridge.....I hope. Thanks for commenting Peter...I know you've been with me for a long time buddy...I appreciate it

@@StoneyRidgeFarmer Well said Josh....I,m remaining calm and your vids prove their are still hard working and honest Americans out there

Well....we've had to replace 2 lines on this one...beats spending $50-80k on a new one. Stuff is constantly breaking on the farm...just part of it I guess

@@StoneyRidgeFarmer Hi Josh, If You use the machines then they are going to have problems! Only new stuff on the show room floor has no problems! BLESSED BE!

maybe I wanted to get some opinions.....or maybe...just maybe more comments boosts a video up in the rankings..hmmmmmm winky winky there's more going on here than meets the eye my brotha
