I work for a power company and we have started using the vac trucks up in Eastern WA and North Idaho almost daily for setting power poles and sucking dirt around underground transformers. Way way easier
How do you step your foot in the door into this job if I may ask? What are the requirements for this line of work? Thank you.. I like the wrap on the Camaro looks great.
With the varrious options on each truck, what does a truck cost and cost to operate? Looks like an expensive business. Keep up the good work. A always wondered how these trucks operated.
Very interesting stuff here. Showing your equipment and that you know how to use it and aren’t afraid to get dirty is also a good way to shut up the haters out there that say daddy hands you everything. Keep up the good work.
I worked with the City for 10 years we had a Jitter head that had nozzles shooting water forward and spins that would cut Roots out of the sewer pipes. It's not that hard of a job but it does take time to do it right and it is a dirty job.... As the old saying is, it smells like money.....lol
Glad you showed this maybe now all them thinking your into other things wish u the best racing this year love how it's a family deal love watching you guys
Years ago company I worked for had/has a vacon truck. I remember having to go to a sewage treatment plant and running the hose through a drain that was clogged between 2 skimmer ponds. I was a plumber for 23 yrs. and that was one of the worst days for me. All the other days were a tie
Did my first hose reel bearing today. It is a process but a great learning experience. We have Western stars with Vactor Systems. Mack’s with Vactor systems and kenworth With Vactor systems. I work for San Antonio Water Systems. These vehicles take so much maintenance. We do combo checks every single morning. We have 8 combos, 2 pressure cleaner trucks and 1 track system Vactor. That’s just at the center I’m at. We have a total of 26 combos and 8 pressure cleaner trucks.
Pretty good video. I drive a 2100i jetter for the city I live in NC people are always amazed at what these trucks can do. Love your videos keep up the hard work I stopped racing in 2001 ran 540 blown alcohol in outlaw races and quick 8 shootouts . I miss it but it does get expensive.
I used to work for MPW(mobile power wash) and we also had vac trucks they are no joke....i knew a guy who got his arm sucked up in the 8 inch boom.....8 surgeries later and he still isnt right. The water pressure we used were 10k, 20k and 40k psi
I love the Vactor but I’m so happy my Vac-con only takes turning on the hydrostatic to engage work mode. No PTO but RNL just pull lever and get to pumpin’. But yes Vactor is better.
Awesome vid love how we get to see raw unscripted footage of your family, your mom's a badass and can we see the inside of that beautiful looking rv in the background, cheers Richie from New Zealand
I'm happy with my AquaTech but it's interesting to see the Vactor. We used to have a Vactor. I also run our Camera truck. RS technical cam system.. Simple and user friendly. Great video.
Nice...yeah man..I worked as a service tech plumber for bout 10 years..and we had a jetter trailer that cleaned sewers out..but only jetted... and was a much smaller hose...but loved learning bout these monsters! New subscriber here! Wanna learn bout ur racing side too!!
Would one of these trucks work in cleaning under grates of a bagasse boiler. Think more or less small gravel with ash and dirt. would have to put corrugated hoses on the end of that line, about 40-60 feet away from truck but it would Vacuum across flat ground not down 40 foot in a hole
Jet head or Peter head?? I spent 10 years with Smith Industrial Service in Mobile, Al. Vector, Guzzler, Myers, and up to 36k hydroblast units. I really enjoyed this video.
I work for a large sanitary district in California “poor me” 😂 and I love this type of video I work on a sterling 2100 3 axle. And. This video is great .
It's all good man I want to see more of that truck I want to see the TV truck in action, think I drove every truck but a VAC truck...lol racing goes without saying✌
Do you do hydro excavation. Like for utility companies that have to repair underground stuff. They had a truck similar to yours when the buried power line popped at the end of my driveway.
Hey Justin Afganistan Army Vet here struggling with PTSD who's dream is to build a 10 second drag car. I currently race a 84' Cutlass with a 383 runs 12's. Any suggestions to push it into the 10's?
@Josh Chilson my friends 70s model camaro went 5.60s in the 1/8th mile with a 383 afr heads and a nitrous system car weighed about 3100 pouds or more with him in it 28x10.5 slicks and cal-trac bars
i do have one question about the vack trucks what is the difference between a dirty vacuum / Debray some time know as a trash water suction truck and a clean Debray suction iv herd and do not know if it true if there even is a difince or not
Awesome. Love the video. Like seeing what goes into making it all happen. I'm just down the road from you guys, hope to see you at Bradenton at some point this year. #SwanGang.
you need to look into doing work for the power companies sucking out for power poles its a lot cleaner thank sucking shit. alot of big projects for transmision poles going on now
#SWANGANGFORLIFE Love the video I use to work for Vaccom where we put these trucks together and actually build them from scratch right here outta of Green Cove Springs or Putnam County up by Jacksonville Fl but that was 1 of my favorite jobs welding and stuff bc I'm actually building with my hands and making something from nothing! ABSOLUTELY LOVE YOUR VIDEOS AND CONTENT! Keep it up bro!
How much would I earn per hour after the cost of the expenses Ie gas and water, it’s been a nightmare looking I’m hoping someone will tell me, great content !
Hey Justin cool video I actually learned something today I always wondered how those trucks operated now I know thank you. I know with the shut down everything sucks but soon as you get back to racing brother you're going to go out there and punch them right in the mouth and knock a tooth out LOL God bless you and your family you guys stay safe
I'm wanting to move my wife and kids out of Illinois.. I was born and raised around semi trucks and construction.. my wife and one kid loves Florida.. what's average starting pay for your company?? Should I get ahold of your old man
they did the sewer behind my house and blew the water out of my toilet and was dripping of my bathroom ceiling. I came home trying to figure out what the hell happened
lol... hey man that has happened to me I used to run 2,500 R.P.M. but we dropped it to 2,000 R.P.M. because the water would start to blow back into the house and it does matter how shallow your pipe is and how much fall your pipe has if it don't have much fall and if it's real shallow it will back up in the house. I would make the City or county to put a backflow preventer on your pipes.
@@JustinSwanstrom69 there is a alleyway behind my house I went out and talked to the guy . he told me it happened to a nother house and the guy was using the toilet lol
Man I’ve got a fitting your dad was looking at last year he invented for his vac trucks. We can get you as deep as you want to go and be able to submerge your hoses instead of having to skim the surface. They are proven and they work. You should hit me up so we can talk about them.
Just curious but as sophisticated as these trucks are what is the cost to get one job ready with all the spray heads to go to work ? Thanks for giving us a tour of your work !
@@mikeclark2802 what did Slinky do for Justin to come up with that? Not that it matters but I suspect there had to be a backstory. Quite the crew of characters, reminds me of back in the day when you could bust balls without people acting like their biscuit got broke. #wokeworldisabrokeworld
DROP A COMMENT AND I MIGHT JUST (PIN) IT #swangang

Now THESE are the type of influencers we need, essential utility and maintenance workers sharing their knowledge

I really enjoyed learning about the vac truck. Thanks Justin. I'm sure you tried to pick Slinky up with it.

How did Slinky get his nickname?
I'm hoping there's a story where it took him 4 minutes to fall down the staircase.
Justin gave it to him in high school during football practice.
@@mikeclark2802 what did Slinky do for Justin to come up with that?
Not that it matters but I suspect there had to be a backstory.
Quite the crew of characters, reminds me of back in the day when you could bust balls without people acting like their biscuit got broke.
#wokeworldisabrokeworld
He fell down some bleachers , I told him he look like a slinky, it stuck
@@JustinSwanstrom69 I knew it had something to do with a staircase.
Need to bust out some Slinky shirts with the bleachers and a drink in his hand.
It's been my long life dream to run a vac truck
