Comments: - - It aired up pretty good (the tire) when I was a farmhand we had to change and rotate our on tires,the 20x8x38 Rice&Canes was the hardest but we had all long axles with duals. And they would buy in bulk sometimes up to 12 tires at a time,if we changed out tires(it was cheater buying so many at a time ). And we used a Slam Hammer and we would have probably 2/3 tractors at a time down changing tires. Enjoyed watching !
Man that’s crazy, good thing it wasn’t going down the road.. iv had a few broken axle shafts on trucks and tractors but it’s usually someone’s fault lol. Good video Andy Take it easy
Hello -- I Grew up farming too -- Time -- Starts 2 hr`s before the Sun and when the Dog stops following you supper time or when you hear the sleigh bells Mom rang to get in here Ah the good ol days LOL SUBBED You
We had the axle break on a pull back tractor at a tractor pull I was involved with-- it was running duals, and the sled is an easy pull for my little John Deere MT-- never did figure out why it broke...
This looks to me to be failure was cyclic stresses and a heat treatment error on the axle most likely due to the bearing location on the axle it could be that machining in that section weakens the axle.
The dark area on the axle has been cracked for a while, looks like it's been broke about 50% for some time. Looks like it twisted the other half off as a bounce should look like a clean break.
