Hey man that was one heck of a spreading job. You have some that is good at and others, like me not so good lol. Great video. Thanks for sharing and have a good day!!
When you get back to digging , I have a couple of ideas for you. Show how to cross ditches when you have dug yourself into a corner. Explain what the boom swing is for when you are digging close to something.
This is great information and content! Love it! I love both hearing and seeing gravel getting spread out of the truck! Thanks and share more with this....
I tailgated wet sand for the first time yesterday. A few loads jammed or came out in portions. I don't know if it's because it was wet or I was raising the bed too quickly due to learning. Went great today until the last load jammed and everyone had left. Had to call the foreman back to push the gate closed so I could unchain it. Only safe way I saw on my own would have been to lower the bed completely and disassemble the chains. Hopefully your tips will help.
Yes it was that day. However we have since added a permanent speedometer as we had to give up the search for a speed sensor for that truck. They were discontinued like 10 years ago. Ahhhh old truck life. Thanks for watching
Now I have to find me a phone holder like that. Do you remember what kind that u used ? Sorry for all the questions just trying to to get mine lined out thanks 😊
Phone mount: www.proclipusa.com/pages/product-finder I bought from them on both of my trucks. Very happy with them Also search gps speedometer on Amazon. Lots of options if you want something more permanent
I sure appreciate the info man stay safe love to watch your videos also I learn a lot been doing this excavation and truck stuff for 4 years and still learning had no one to teach me I’m self taught lol

Appreciate it! Thanks much for watching, always nice to see you in the comments :)
Great video, you couldn't show frozen clumps in August!!!
Yeah that was a first for me believe it or not, this year has been bitterly cold. 11 degrees this morning. Thanks for watching!
@@DirtAndRocks it was down to single digits here in central Arkansas last week.
@@junkyarddd1 yeah we saw a bit of that too. 5 was the lowest we saw here. Nothing to do but keep throwing wood in the stove and drink coffee!
Nice smooth job !!!
Yeah I actually like the smaller stone more than I thought I would. Thank you for watching :)

Wet material is tough. You may have to open the gate more than you normally would to get it to come out. thanks for watching!
[a, lot of times if the gravel is frozen. can add some larger gravel to mix it and it will spread better]
Thanks for the tip!
I have the same problem with the frozen stuff another question do you have your phone set up as a speedometer?
