 hey guys shipper 1000 here just a quick vlog we're gonna go ahead and pull this hub off here this is not really how to but it's just what i'm doing because i'd like to take the boat out this weekend we went got our we got it registered got our sticker got the plates for the boat or for the trailer so thought i'd just bring you along with me on this let's go ahead and let me jack this up a little bit the heaviest thing about this this boat is just the motor so wow all right go ahead and pull these off of here monkey's gonna stop by where he used to work tomorrow at the trailer place my buddy johnny there he'll he'll hook us up with what we need i don't know might just get a whole hub sometimes it's cheaper well as cheap to buy a whole hub as it is to buy new bearings and seal um but we'll just have to see they easily don't wear these things but that stuff nasty that grease in there so i thought i'd put a pair gloves on yeah they did not um they didn't grease these bearings i can tell you that right now and the place they got it done at is right beside where i used to work at the trailer place right beside it because they would send any trailer work they would send up to us so i know they didn't they didn't send this one up there because this this has never been greased and they wouldn't do that where i used to work well at least i wouldn't anyway i mean so we're just going to have to see i forgot to bring something to some of the parts on it should come with all this if they got it they should have this pretty common pretty common bearing stuff and i say they never greased that look at that seals completely gone there's the seal right here's the seal this is what's left of the uh so the spindle feels good this is what's left of the um the inner bearing race what happens is when that bearing starts going out these things get hot when they get hot it kind of welds us on there so i'm going to have to go get a hammer and probably a chisel i may have to crack that to get that off there we'll just have to see um yeah there's there's pieces in here of the old of the old bearing i might be able to just get the bearings and seal but whatever's cheaper you know so let me go get you know sometimes sometimes you can get them to spin but i don't think this one's going to this one's going to fight me all right let me go get a hammer and chisel i'll be right back okay what i may have to do if this don't work i may have to get my cutting wheel give it a little slice there i'll bring you a little closer so you can kind of see what we're doing here like i said this is not really how to it's just something i'm doing i may have to give it a slice right there but we'll see if i can't get this to come off first doesn't feel like it's moving any i don't think it is it doesn't seem like it does it i'm going to have to slice it when you cut these you don't want to get into that spindle too much but like i said it's not really how to that's why i just put a slice in it i should have went over here on the side but and then that should just crack it enough where it'll slide out of there okay we got it to move so that's a good thing now these are case harden you know they're very hard to steal probably can't see inside there but there a little crack in there that's all it takes that crack down through there it's all it takes and that just gives it enough to wear see sometimes see this is part of the bearing and uh sometimes these will actually spin on that spindle and it wears a spindle out and then you got what you got to do is you got to cut this with these welds and put a new spindle in we got lucky uh it's a pretty beefy spindle for what what axles on it just uh i think it's a thousand pound axle so now all it needs is see the uh the bearings sometimes you got to step down where the rear bearings bigger around than the front bearing but we can just we can see it takes the same size bearing off to clean that up with some sandpaper or emery cloth you're not going to want to you always want to do that by hand don't use your power equipment for that so all right so i think i think we can get by let's let's check this out i think the hugs are okay i think i think what we'll do is just put new bearings because it comes with that race you just knock that race out of there yeah the hub is okay the studs are okay the lugs i think we can get by with just the set of bearings and a and a seal seals what keeps the grease in it okay so i'm gonna get that i think really all she's going to have to take is you know is the bearing i'll put it all in a bag for and johnny will take care of he'll get us taking care of he was my parts guy uh that's all he does all day long look up parts sell parts and stuff like that so he very much knows what he's doing there um so i think i'm going to check the other side see how it is we'll go from there and here's another example now i just adjusted it it was just a little out of adjustment but look at that see how brown that is those were not greased back in march okay see it looks like they may have tried but to me those are not greased that should either be fresh red or fresh green so i'll have to go ahead and uh i'll have to um grease them up but this one feels pretty good now so all right got a little dry crack on the tires i'm not really worried about it we do have a spare so that's good all right guys okay so i thought i'd go ahead put this ball on here i thought that was an inch and a quarter but it's an inch and seven eight and that's the ball i've got here so let's go ahead this is a two inch ball so let's go ahead take this off if we can hopefully we won't have to heat it am i recording there we go all right that's good okay but what i gotta do real quick is i gotta make sure i either have to have it like this or down like that so since this truck's a little low i may have to put it like that so what i'm going to do is just measure it out real quick and how i'm going to do that is usually wanted about knee high so i'm going to measure the trailer about knee high where the trailer's live i'm going to stick this right here right in there like that you're going to want to see right there's about knee high by the time i get the ball in there it's going to be about knee high so that's exactly how i'm going to put it because that's how i'm going to hold that boat okay it looks like this is going to be about right that trailer you know just it's got them little ass small tires on it this is the way we're going to do it here i don't know why they had that on there but i'm going to put it back i'm going to put a lock net on here this is this is a lock washer this is a lock washer too because it's beveled like this see don't hammer loose flat they're supposed to be like that what you do is when it tightens down it spreads that out and puts pressure on your nut keeps your nut from coming loose so what i'm going to do i don't think i'm going to use that i'm going to use this here hopefully this will spin it on here where i don't have to break out a wrench and i forgot that stuck in there probably could have used that nut but okay hate when this line gets to leaking like that this kind of buggered up so we should be able to take it out for its maiden voyage there we go and this puppy is ready to rock and roll i also got these these are locks so see these these inserts the balls aren't too bad about 17 bucks but this like 50 bucks here all right so somebody can just if they see out they can pull that pin pull that pin out slide this out and run off what this does is it takes place of that and it has a lock on it so let's go ahead and open this up he gave this to me it came in the boat with the boat oh shit probably going to have to find something now these locks are not foolproof but somebody don't they don't like messing with them they'll just look for something like that let's go ahead make sure this is going to fit get you down here you can see okay but put this in here just like that and then this slides on i guess i need the key to lock it so here we go comes with two keys these are pretty pricey too but they're handy like i said they're not foolproof but you know it's only protecting you know 60 or 70 dollars worth of stuff so every little bit helps right so i can see it it should be just slid on there and it's locked there it is nobody can pull that out to whereas the other one like i said all you had to do you know what you saw hopefully is you just pull this pin out slide that out boom they run off with your stuff least is some kind of deterrent if they got to work for at least you know maybe you're only in somewhere for a few minutes you know getting a sandwich maybe you can see him or whatever so there you go like i said other day man these things have hurt more people than a gun i think man i know i've been boom so what i'm going to do is i'm going to take this back out so monkey don't hurt herself on it i'm going to put it inside the truck what i'll do is i'll put this pin here that way it doesn't get lost like i said it's got the little rubber boot kind of keeps your the water out like i said it's not foolproof but i get what these cost i think they're around 20 bucks depending on where you go and you might be able to get them online cheaper but they're well worth it of course this is for smaller that's half inch but i'm going to keep this i'll keep this in my toolbox and uh in case we want to tell something else you know that for somebody or for us or whatever all right so there's that now i'm going to put these on the key ring well i'm going to keep one in the shop with my toolbox keys i'll put one on the key ring of the truck had a guy one day had a work order had to cut that lock off of there the guy lost his key okay he wanted to put another insert in to haul a different size trailer all right so i got up under there my cutoff tool i just cut it off and there we go i said why you need to cut that off for anyway what's he said well you come out with the other one he says well because it's a different size ball i said why didn't you just have me change the ball it would have been cheaper because we would change these balls for people for nothing well i had to charge him labor to cut that lock off and then he had to buy a new pen i said you know i could have just changed that ball for you for nothing good but you know it didn't sound a work order what for he just wanted to cut off so i cut it off for him and then he was like you shouldn't see look on his face he was like uh dude i don't know i wasn't even thinking because you know like i told him i said didn't sound a work order it just had cut it off so i did i could have just changed that ball for him for nothing for free ended up costing him well actually i think he went and bought another set of these i think they were like 25 bucks 20 25 oops 20 25 bucks and then labor i had to charge him a minimum or you're supposed to charge a minimum of 30 minutes but i felt bad for the guy so i'm only charging him 15 minutes which that was uh about i say 20 40 60 it was about 25 so then i'm costing him around you know 50 60 bucks for tax and stuff when i could have just changed the ball for free but he wasn't thinking you know what happens to the best of us okay guys like i said it's not really how to it was just i thought i'd bring you along with me monkey's going to she's gonna go to wendy's get some stuff to eat um because they got late by the time we got back from the the title place and getting the getting the the boat registered and they had trouble with the trailer because her birth date was different and it kept saying september and she's like no and so the woman had called tyla hassey find out what's going on to get that story now that took almost a half an hour but anyway so oh i need to get the sticker put on the boat to see the numbers stay the same down here in florida you keep the number the number goes with the boat you just got to buy your sticker your registration sticker um so we got the tag for the trailer everything's legal there so hopefully saturday fingers crossed weather permitting um and hopefully they got the bearings or the hub assembly that i need um they should have they they keep a lot of stuff in stock it's not a special spindle so um i looked at the numbers and it's it's a it's a pretty common bearing we keep in stock there i keep saying we i don't work there anymore but because of my physical condition but yeah i miss it though had a lot of fun working there but anyway so providing that goes good and i can get that put on tomorrow night maybe i'll do it maybe that'll be the late night in the shop tomorrow night i'll put them uh i'll put the hub on but um saturday hopefully if it's not raining we're going to take it out for its maiden voyage at least maiden voyage for for us and we're going to make sure it runs good and everything you know um i still got to have i still got to do some adjustments um which you do right there at the motor it's no big deal i don't have to get excited or anything or i shouldn't have to i mean if i have to i can but it seems to run pretty good in the tank test so i want to make sure that it's going to run all right under a load you know with you know pushing the boat and me and her and all her stuff so although it's not that heavy but even in water i mean you know make sure there's no leaks he said there isn't any leaks he said it will take on a little bit of water around the bung plug not worried about that he probably just not tightening it up enough but that way i can make sure there's no leaks at all somebody's out front hang on guys okay guys sorry about that boy's looking at the Ford um they stopped by the other day and looked at them they came back wanted to hear it around they took a fur drive so anyway i forget what i was talking about so hopefully saturday we can take the boat out make sure there's no leaks and stuff like that and then if not hopefully we can get a good weekend before it gets cold and i can get it up there and get it painted and you know scrape all the old paint off she wants to go with the same color so we'll just take a chip in and match it up the best we can because it looks good with a bimini top on it so anyway so that's that so so that might be our uh late night thing tomorrow night i might get a big old light over there we can shine on us and we'll put the bearings on it and and that thing should be pretty close to being dunked in the water well it will be ready to be dunked in the water so that'd be awesome all right guys anyway thanks for watching appreciate it monkey should be coming back in a minute she took bruno with her he likes to go for a little ride once in a while so anyway guys again thanks for watching shabarra the met the man legend i'm gone for now we'll see you guys
