    If that engine came out of the 773 (60t capacity-used to be 50t) it would be a 3408 and a few pounds heavier the "5 or 6" thousand pounds. Yo Ho HO, It has a "C-12" or some other number classification. They started all the "C" stuff about the time I retired, so I don't know those numbers..
    That truck was built in the Decatur, IL CAT plant where I spent 33 exciting years doin lots of stuff. I supervised the paint line for two yrs back in 1978. We would
    paint some 15-19 units per shift depending on the product mix.

    Used to work for a Cat dealer as a crane truck operator. Changed powertrains in a many 773,777,789, D-6 thru D-11, 980's to 992's. We could usually do a engine torque convertor swap in 4 shifts. 1st shift would start, 2nd shift would swap components and replace any hoses and parts. 1st shift would come back and set it back in. 2nd shift would finish sheet metal, topping fluids and running it to test.
    I would show up to pull it out and set it back in the machine. back in the day we would do several engines a week. Average life of a 3508 engine in a D-11/777 was 5 to 8,000hrs before needing to be rebuilt. That 773B truck has a 3412 engine. Average life span of that engine is 6 to 10,000hrs.
    That engine brings back memories of unwrapping those cat rebuilds at the job sites.
    Those are 777 cabs

      It is a 360 degree vision camera. Go Pro makes one. ARV $900.00. I thought looking at the Driver's front wheel was cool, yup all those spikes are still attached. When Casey uses this camera in the forest as he has done it shows a different perspective with the surrounding landscape.

      He was using an Insta 360 camera and that inspired me to get one, the R1 model which has two lenses, a 360 and a 180. One of his had a lens get damaged, but I don't know if he got another Insta 360 to replace it. It takes great videos, but they use tons of storage and you need lots of processing power to edit them.

  • @SlickBubbles
    @SlickBubbles 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +97

    I would give your trailer a quick paint job just on the outside of the deck frame, the part visible from 50 ft away. I say this only because a trailer that looks old and worn is more likely to attract attention of the ministry of transport, which could increase the number of times you get pulled over for an inspection. The rest looks okay.

      @fergusonhobbyfarm4567 We used to run an old 80 something f800 single axle dump. It was a dog and just begged for the inspector to nab it, but would pass a safety as long as you didn't pay too much attention to the dump box. (Would have made a decent salter with all the holes in it) I remember getting pulled into the scales and the inspector literally rubbed his hands together as he laid down on his creeper. 15 minutes later he popped out and told me my fuel cap was seeping... that was all he could find. Had it been the day before I'd have been in a bit of a spot. That old Detroit leaked like it was going out of style. I had just washed it down to the Detroit blue the day before.

    Here in the Midwest, running your straps outside the rub rail is no problem. I think cutting off that round bar and putting flat stock so that you can loop your straps around it. Like all the other steel trailers have would be a good idea. Remember to mount your toolbox high enough that it's not a ground clearance problem but low enough that it's not a sliding winch problem.😂

    You should raffle off a trip with you. Next time you head to the wild of Oregon you can bring someone with you to see the amazing scenery.

    I noticed that your trailer doesn't have a license plate? Are they required in Oregon? Good luck hope you get a lot things to haul!

      Nope, haven’t got it yet. But tow plates exempt me from needing trailer registration

    It’s been a lot of years since I trucked, but back then regs said the straps had to be inside the rub rail. Guess things have changed. Great vid btw.

      That’s still the law. But when the way the law wants you to do it is less safe and incorrectly stresses the equipment, the simple solution is to say…. fuck the law.

    That was a good price for your new to you trailer. I'm not very familiar with trailer prices for semis, but looking at the condition of the trailer and seeing it work, I am confident saying that you made a wise investment in your business.
    May you family vacation be filled with pleasant times and precious memories.

      I am fortunate to have a very good friend who owned and drove trucks for several years. I have been able to gain a deeper understanding about that arena of life, and still understand that I only understand the beginning of a droplet of that profession.
      Knowing him has changed the way that I drive even. I thought that I was a decent driver. Then simply because of comments that he made about other passenger car drivers and how unsafe and inconsiderate they were being has led to me being more observant and aware of every other driver.
      This field is taken so much for granted, and so misunderstood.
      I grew up knowing people who drove truck for a living, so I came to know a tiny bit of their life. It wasn't until I spent a few years driving passenger vehicles with a truck driver that I only began to understand.
