It shows actual disassembly techniques (vise grips, slide hammer, deep socket) but ends before repair or parts replacement, leaving the fix unresolved.
An owner-operator documenting an unexpected repair on their own tractor, filmed as it happens rather than scripted or sales-oriented.
The differential and main pinion had no oil, which led to bad bearings and scoring on the pinion, causing the axle to lock up and tear loose.
Use two vise grips stacked for rigidity, hook a slide hammer to the vise grips, and bang it out. A one-inch deep socket helped remove a tight nut on the shaft.
No oil was present, bearings on the main pinion were bad, and there was noticeable scoring on the pinion gear, with concerns about the hubs too.
