I thought that I'd wrenched on everything: from 5000hp electric motors and gearboxes to printing presses to tire-"rubber" mixers, BUT THEN I got the bright idea to work with my Bro-in-law: FRIGGEN EARTHMOVING AND TRUCKING FFS! Electro-mechanically, there ain't nothin new under the sun, BUT the specific knowledge you bring to the table ALMOST makes me feel like I know what I'm talkin about when it's Mack or Kenworth dump-truck time. THANKS MAN!!!! Keep doin what yer doin.

Can you do a video on S-Cams, Cam bushings and brake Pins/Bushings. I’ve lost count on the number of times I heard or been told that nobody worries with that stuff and they have never had a problem with any of that on their trucks. But somehow I always find an issue in on my first load anytime we run together and im using one of their trailers. 50 mikes down the road I’m pulling the rest stoop with my temp gun in hand trying to identify which set of brakes is dragging and keeping me from costing/screw up my gear sift timing. They claim to have just had the brakes adjusted but when I use the draw bar to check s-cam slack, we get an inch or more of slop when we lift up with the bar. Having to replace the spider ain’t. I fun especially if you gotta cut it off and weld on a replacement. They probably still won’t grease the tube but maybe they will change those wear items before they wear through and start eating into stuff that Ms not made to be replaced every 200k

I know the reason for "why" grease zurk's/zirk's often times, pending the part, do not automatically come with the main replacement part... I was talking with, or rather, complaining to a sales rep for (IH) International Harvester, and his reply was as follows.... (IH) did a 2 year study group of sorts, (about 15 or so years ago) checking with mechanic's and owners a few questions: Do you have certain preferences upon brand of grease zurk/zirk (GZ)? Do you have a certain preference upon type of (GZ), like: -flush threaded/non-threaded, -recessed threaded/non-threaded, -extended various lengths, -degreed in 90*, 45*, 22*. Do you have a certain preference in material they are manufactured in, steel alloy, stainless steel, and even brass and aluminum. due to the high options, and major complaints of the junky (GZ) that suppliers offered being problematic, they just stopped offering them, as the reporting was so up in the air of "just let the person deal with it, and as a bonus, we can save a few million dollars in the process, and reduce the calls and returns of a good part but faulty (GZ). This study became a standard protocol for about 450,000 parts nation wide and world wide, at least in the western world's economy. Drive line and suspension and brake components alike, all took to this process of, selling you the part, getting home or to the shop, and half way though the assembly, only to realize, you get to run back to the supply parts store and get a (GZ)... LOL... That is the story I was told, perhaps, to get me to just shut-up about silly (GZ)'s to a sales rep who likely doesn't want to have his time wasted, listening to me complain about something so far out of his control? Who knows...

For content, I think a good instructional video would be frame health on a vehicle being purchased. Many people may not know how much frame pitting, rust, what kind of damage, etc etc is ok or not ok. I think people would benefit from seeing a video on what to look for, and what to avoid when purchasing a truck based on frame condition. One thing I see a lot is quicky spray paint jobs on trucks being sold that basically just hides the frame condition in favor of a sale.

Paint doesn't hide rust pitting, it's the buyer that looks at the paint and thinks, everything is OK, me on the other hand, that 30K truck is gonna get an offer 15K cus it's damaged like hell. Most likely I won't even make an offer and walk off.

@@jorgeposadas1192 I am aware that I could have typed that out better. I was tired when I posted the comment. Essentially, what I was trying to say is that I see listings online where paint is used to hide things and bump listing price. From what I can see (especially from one mid-country seller), is that paint is applied over the top of rust rattle-can style, which will cause worse issues later. I have seem attempts from online sellers at hiding pitting with bondo and paint as well. I hope that somewhat clarifies what I was trying to say with an empty brain battery.

Rainman Ray in FL? Or maybe go on up to upstate NY and have Eric O. at South Main Auto show you some rust?
Fun stuff! Hi from Michigan
Great video. Even the synthetic greases are cheaper than replacing parts. Don't understand why people don't grease things

Becase going in dry makes the parts feel much younger than they actually are. No one wants to pay out for new parts these days..
Thank you teacher.
Keep up the good work..
take pride in your work! yessir
Your content is great! Keep up the awesome work my good friend!👍
Can you do a video on S-Cams, Cam bushings and brake Pins/Bushings. I’ve lost count on the number of times I heard or been told that nobody worries with that stuff and they have never had a problem with any of that on their trucks. But somehow I always find an issue in on my first load anytime we run together and im using one of their trailers. 50 mikes down the road I’m pulling the rest stoop with my temp gun in hand trying to identify which set of brakes is dragging and keeping me from costing/screw up my gear sift timing. They claim to have just had the brakes adjusted but when I use the draw bar to check s-cam slack, we get an inch or more of slop when we lift up with the bar. Having to replace the spider ain’t. I fun especially if you gotta cut it off and weld on a replacement. They probably still won’t grease the tube but maybe they will change those wear items before they wear through and start eating into stuff that Ms not made to be replaced every 200k
Thanks for the info!
So Wise , Thank You .
Great video 👍
Thanks for showing that alot won't let you see how they do it !!
You are the man!!!!
Definitely agree take pride in your work
I love seeing wrenching done
When I hear a guy say I don’t get paid to clean that up it makes my skin crawl😂 what do you think these people are paying for. If they wanted to do it they wouldn’t be paying you and you wouldn’t have a job take the time and make it look professional. Nice job 👍

More importantly, are you happy to tell someone else “hey, I did THAT” and when they look, they just point out everything you forgot? Just take pride in your work. Be capable of showing it off. If you’re not ready to show it off, you’re not done. Simple
Great video brother , tiger tool makes a great hydraulic spring bushing remover and installer with all the attachments for every kind of spring bushing and pin for all heavy duty and medium duty trucks .

Dont need to work on the bug stuff to have this channel give you a good perspective on the small stuff.
My 1947 Greyhound bus has threaded spring bushings. Thanks !
good vid and GREAT hearing LED ZEPPELIN KASHMIR in the back ground... That's your key to the great work buddy... Not afraid to clean the small parts up, & LED ZEPPELIN in the air, combination for excellence....
I'm waiting for someone to say that a real mechanic puts the stands under the oil pan..........................😁 Thanks for the videos Man because it's more fun when you don't need to do that stuff anymore and you can watch someone else and learn a few things!
really good job

Stralians and Poms just love this fella?
I know the reason for "why" grease zurk's/zirk's often times, pending the part, do not automatically come with the main replacement part... I was talking with, or rather, complaining to a sales rep for (IH) International Harvester, and his reply was as follows.... (IH) did a 2 year study group of sorts, (about 15 or so years ago) checking with mechanic's and owners a few questions: Do you have certain preferences upon brand of grease zurk/zirk (GZ)? Do you have a certain preference upon type of (GZ), like: -flush threaded/non-threaded, -recessed threaded/non-threaded, -extended various lengths, -degreed in 90*, 45*, 22*. Do you have a certain preference in material they are manufactured in, steel alloy, stainless steel, and even brass and aluminum. due to the high options, and major complaints of the junky (GZ) that suppliers offered being problematic, they just stopped offering them, as the reporting was so up in the air of "just let the person deal with it, and as a bonus, we can save a few million dollars in the process, and reduce the calls and returns of a good part but faulty (GZ). This study became a standard protocol for about 450,000 parts nation wide and world wide, at least in the western world's economy. Drive line and suspension and brake components alike, all took to this process of, selling you the part, getting home or to the shop, and half way though the assembly, only to realize, you get to run back to the supply parts store and get a (GZ)... LOL... That is the story I was told, perhaps, to get me to just shut-up about silly (GZ)'s to a sales rep who likely doesn't want to have his time wasted, listening to me complain about something so far out of his control? Who knows...
@ 7:38 You said an entire mouth full right there!!!!! And you are spot on!!!! That young ans don’t quite understand. lol.
For content, I think a good instructional video would be frame health on a vehicle being purchased. Many people may not know how much frame pitting, rust, what kind of damage, etc etc is ok or not ok. I think people would benefit from seeing a video on what to look for, and what to avoid when purchasing a truck based on frame condition. One thing I see a lot is quicky spray paint jobs on trucks being sold that basically just hides the frame condition in favor of a sale.

Paint doesn't hide rust pitting, it's the buyer that looks at the paint and thinks, everything is OK, me on the other hand, that 30K truck is gonna get an offer 15K cus it's damaged like hell. Most likely I won't even make an offer and walk off.

@@jorgeposadas1192 I am aware that I could have typed that out better. I was tired when I posted the comment. Essentially, what I was trying to say is that I see listings online where paint is used to hide things and bump listing price. From what I can see (especially from one mid-country seller), is that paint is applied over the top of rust rattle-can style, which will cause worse issues later. I have seem attempts from online sellers at hiding pitting with bondo and paint as well. I hope that somewhat clarifies what I was trying to say with an empty brain battery.
Hey bendin, I live my diesels too, but mine float er did 😅
Good DEAL!! I just don’t understand why guys Don’t clean up before and AFTER doing work or service to equipment. Pride plus helps keep you clean too!
Good stuff
Tiger Tool should sponsor you and if they dont you should still get the bushing tool. It's so much lighter and faster than working with the big setup you have. Granted your setup works great but you know how it is when you do this work everyday. Good video, keep it up.

King pins replacement as I understand how to. But I'm not sure when installing the shims. And installing wheel seals and bearing. But the installing tighten sequence and torque.
That bushing tool looks shop made. There's quite a few trucks with washers between the spring and shackles. Mack tends to do things differently. Good job there.
10:40 i like how you refer to a 2013 as older...lmao i was working on that Macks great great great great granddad not long ago. Old trucks never due they just go to broker companies lol.

Did a set of front springs on a 91 international 9300 that had the spot welds. Need to look through your videos and see if you have any on the springs bushings for the Freightliner airliner suspension. Done of those in my near future.
