Your helper obviously thinks the press setup looks a little bit sketchy. Lord hates a coward.
ОтветитьThey didn't break that shaft by looking at it, that's for sure... I suspect it got run off a trailer ramp or something like that.
ОтветитьCan't beat workin from home at table height. Good job Brother.
ОтветитьGreat video man! Except now I have The Final Countdown stuck in my head 🤣
ОтветитьI can tell you how that got broken….. The wheel was swiveled 90 degrees and hit the edge they were milling. The wheel could not get straight and broke the shaft.
ОтветитьNothing wrong with more-or-less bench work in nice weather once in a while.
ОтветитьWOW, that had to be a lot of weight to sheer that diameter shaft off. Nice rebuild.
ОтветитьNice Earl Shieb on the wheel! lol Do you remember him?
ОтветитьWas it not the weld doing something to the shaft making it brittle?
ОтветитьYou need one of those police shields the clear kind when you’re running the press like this ha ha
ОтветитьI can't believe you'd let those welds leave your shop looking like that.
ОтветитьWhenever I use a press and get a lot of pressure on something I call it building a bomb and just wanted to say thanks read in one of the comments you answered I bought the 3m cubitron grinding disc and man are you right best ones I’ve ever used ended up ordering a whole box
ОтветитьThat center came out better than I thought it would!
ОтветитьThat's crazy insane pressure to even bend it out of place let alone the shaft snap like that🖐 high five to you for this repair
ОтветитьGreat job thanks for sharing 🦘👍
ОтветитьWhy you torch it sideways, I like to torch vert from the top
Ответитьoh the final countdown project 😂
Ответитьwonderful footage of cutting and gouging the shaft off.......
Ответитьgood job sir
ОтветитьIt broke clean adjacent to the weld! A high stress area that doesn't tolerate high stress. Weld any type of metal, and it's compromised to some degree! Maybe a key, or even splines in this type of application would have been more suitable.
ОтветитьWhat a wheely good repair. I'd never get tired of watching stuff like this.
ОтветитьYou could have used your forklift forks and rolled the wheel as you welded the shaft. But you got it done. Many ways to accomplish the job.
ОтветитьThe shiny part of the break. I welded a brake chamber bracket on a steer axle of a fuel tank trailer. Six months later it broke off next to the weld so clean I could of but it back in place and re welded with a perfect matching fit.
Was talking with Freightliner about the uniqueness of the fracture, they said they had a tie rod end break the same way. Engineering came back with a harmonic vibration caused by disc brake. A few months later I had a brake noise in a drum brake, jack it up, rotate, it would sing. Removed inspected, re assembled, noise gone.
Visited with a CHP accident investigator as to that particular style of forensic failure. He gave me the scientific name, although he has never seen it. He cite the Bay Area earthquake 30 years ago stating that the mud flats in the Bay turned into glass.
The root cause was a harmonic vibration that melts material at a molecular level.
That got dropped , or fell of a trailer. In my opinion. .
Ответитьnice job. thought about sitting the wheel on its side and then welding the alxe in. would of been a lot easier than trying to do all that vertical welding
ОтветитьPlease keep us informed on how that Vevor FGY-50150 cylinder works out. The price is right at $115 but haven't used and abuse one yet .
Ответитьgood to go, just cash the check!
ОтветитьEnjoyed
ОтветитьA spacer sleeve on each side would keep it in the middle better than welding it. I think the welding adds stress into the axle.
ОтветитьI sat on the edge of my chair while the press was bending that fork back into shape. Scary stuff. Thanks for the interesting video.
ОтветитьNice press man simple but very effective 👌
Ответить😎👍😎
ОтветитьNot compromised/destroyed in disassembly! To Quote; "bearing has a slight wobble"! I s because It is designed to self-center! It has to be or the bearing will fail It is a flanged 4 Bolt type. Why are saying we Quote; "should not put them back on there"! The shaft failed! right they also sell j!
ОтветитьLove the multi-purpose tape measure. I've been known to use one as a hammer, as well.
ОтветитьIf you think those welds will last any longer than the old ones, you're dreaming. Sorry bud, you weld too cold. A guy with your limited skills should practice on flat first. Just stand it up next time. 3 passes minimum. You should practice with stick SMAW before you try MIG.
ОтветитьProper fukt
ОтветитьPillow blocks and a bigger shaft. Concrete is abrasive!
ОтветитьWorn tyre bent brackets sheared shaft need new?
ОтветитьIs your repair shop in a residential neighborhood?
ОтветитьBecause the shaft did not fit in the hole snuggly, it will work and break your weld. There is a tremendous load on that wheel.
ОтветитьThis channel is my favorite welding channel. This is way cooler than pipelining
ОтветитьHoly crap that is a huge caster wheel.
ОтветитьWish you would put your camera on a stand or something, doing crap one handed wants to give a big 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻 to these video. But not today, just my opinion
ОтветитьI can't say I've ever seen something shear just like that. Usually some twists or ridges, bumps, webs or something.
ОтветитьA really tough job LOL....
ОтветитьBore it out for a 4" bar, turn down the ends of the bar to 3" over about 3/4" for added strength. It shouldn't break near as easily.
ОтветитьCould be no preheat
ОтветитьI like your work and show .
Good job
