  1. never used one ,but one heck of an ingenious idea. real time saver
  2. brought it up since he was told ; needed a special tool , long socket more of a special than HD snap ring pliers.
  3. and I felt bad since I took the """"how about this weather and turned it into a tofu topic!!!!!!!!""" weather in CT is turning bad this day >>SAVED by the forecast . for you "new "people ;; there IS a "what cha cookin topic;; for your sausage preference just sayin 🐷😄🥓🌭
  4. I probably haven't worked on anything that new !!!😀 Eaton rebuilds for me go back to Baskin Robbins RTO9513/ 12513. and YES some had the snap ring set up along with round nut. I had the special socket for those;; must be another gone in the auction item,
  5. it's the old story ::everything has a place/purpose. have installed the two piece number of times. P I A to install the roll pins , but not as bad VS the transmissions had to be removed.
  6. does he have the snap ring set up OR the left thread special circular nut requiring the long tube "socket" (special tool required one) having two pins which engage the nut for removal ????
  7. another example of :: it's good to be old and over the hill! back in the day it was about being the richest .. when Rockefeller was asked :how much is enough? his reply was "just a little bit more" sadly today it's about world power! theme behind many James bond movies (he was a super spy for you youngsters) was focused on world power. we are seeing it now. doesn't matter who you blame ; the children will be paying the price.
  8. don't think Your alone in that area. I just came from a meeting with my youngest ; we discussed the plans ($$$$$) for her marriage #2 to a not so bright man. marriage #1 failed leaving her with 3 children . she's 36yr old ??
  9. another possibility with present situation would be to leave top 3/4 pipe cap loose (or loosen when installed)till engine running to bleed any possible trapped air. kinda late now to change over to WP housing Not having tip turbine fan plumbing . updated housing did away with the 1/4 vent line.
  10. compared to last few weeks , CT weather like a summer day today. spent day working outside on John Deere 5200. nice compact tractor. fixed hyd leak other misc.
  11. 2 points !!ole man scored again 🤣.BMT keeps brain cells for us old people active . Thanks B M T . of course being this old have seen many changes /advancements in mechanical field. difficulty is remembering them.if I only figured picture down loads, found the picture of engine with water cooled intercooler showing the 3/4 piping.
  12. now tell the truth :: he's there to make sure you do it right !! in event you install a side car on bike and he's riding in it : he doesn't want a break down LOL
  13. guess the ole man hasn't totally forgot . great idea to use a hole saw to weaken brass washers
  14. to spend $$$millions on those fancy 4 -5 axle wreckers and have them sit not profitable. they make the big bucks on calls ; when they are on one. take a set up like above having a 5th wheel ; unit not towing can be useful under trailers. fleets started using tractors with 5th wheel mounted wrecker set ups yrs ago. now they seem to be more elaborate
  15. me also BUT almost 75 with a "power plant" not functioning 100 % ; I have learned to adjust my diet. of course it depends on the weather !!(back on track ).. might have to move this to "what's cha cookin " to be on topic.
