Excellent camera work and narration. The old school cabover is a beauty! Have trucked the same routes but never anything close to this size. I've done lowbed and step deck work and lots of oversize. You guys are in a whole other league! Great to see real working classic trucks!! 🏒🇺🇲🇨🇦
Awesome video! Your daughter did an excellent job! Nothing like black smoke pouring out the stacks! Not so much all of that blow by! Glad she’s back to work!
I knew that was a 3406b the moment i heard it .The purr of that Kitty sent me to sleep many a night In a cabover just like that .What good memories and crazy stories we old truckers can tell .
That dolly looks like fun! My old fire department had a hook and ladder...a tiller truck, and I loved steering the trailer!! Looks about the same, except you're on the ground and we were up in the air on top of the trailer!
Really cool video ! Been watching updates posted by MOT on Kicking Horse, and the scope and complexity of the project in amazing. Thanks for sharing the adventure. 🤙
Awesome footage of the haul Joe. I've never pulled a steering dolly. Looks exciting, especially the view from the dolly. And of course the cherry on top was bringing her home on the hook. Lol. Koodos to your daughter for all the work she did.
Glad this was not used when the train hit the concrete beam in early January ! well you got the load there , sucks you lost the piston , time for inframe !
Great video! That old 3406B musta run her guts out, but was lucky it held together until it wasn’t loaded when that head gasket blew. Looks like it was an expensive repair. Thanks for all the great videos in this, really great to see the overheads and the dolly views. Your daughter did a great job editing this 😉👍
Uncle Ralph worked for Rocky Hill Iron Works in Rocky Hill, Ct in 60's hauling steel girders from Bethlehem, Pa. Many of the I-91 overpasses, bridges were built using those beams.
Joe thank you for showing us all how its done. top quality doco style footage, explanations and the cabover - well the star of the show. respect from australia.
An astounding video!! Your daughter did an outstanding job with this awesome video. I've never seen a girder that long being hauled, and the tractor/jeep/steering dolly combo made for a fascinating rig, with an overall length just shy of an incredible 200 feet!! Talk about looong! The view from the steering dolly was great; it really takes experience to take the turns safely with a load that long! Loved seeing that Freightliner cabover!! Still gettin' r done! Sorry about the mechanical at the end, though. Thanks for posting, totally enjoyable.
What a great video. I actually worked at a prestress place and then ran heavy equipment on big road and bridge projects in Florida . In Moore Haven Florida the beams that went over water were brought in by a barge. They placed one beam and the strongeback setup that was designed to hold the beam in place didn't work and the beam fell before they could hook the cranes back up. The beam fell on the barge holding the other 4 beams I believe, and 2 or 3 fell into the water way. It was a a few month setback on the bridge construction. That was around 1998,99.
This was some great content, one thing is could you show more from the dolly? Your Daughter did a great job of putting this together, and as for your motor in your truck your safe and you did what you could to keep all safe my hat is off to you all. Can’t wait to see more from your trips take care from Southeastern Idaho!
Crazy to see, you still use people in that steering dolly. Well, it works for you, but here in Europe you can't find manypeople who would go there. (because we had wire / radiocontrolled trailers from late 70's)
Blows my mind that the Europeans have had auto rear-steer worked out for at least the last 25 years and there are still companies stateside running this sort of setup.... All part of the hustle, I guess...
JLG ultra used to start around 250k, with the steel prices going up over the last few years as much as they have i would guess starting price is much higher.
@@joeholt4602 I don't dislike B models but the for what he's doin the overhead cam engine would be way better and the Jake's are far superior to the B model... unless he wants to spend some big money and put a C model head with some super Jake's if he can find them
@@timcanizares5240 yes, you can, but I like this whole mechanical. Plus, I take it up on the Ice Road in the winter and I don’t want any electrical issues with sensors and such.
when you go to Kitimat do you go up through Quesnel < or around through blue river? ive piloted quite a few loads up there and never liked the the stretch through Quesnel.
it probably sucked in coolant when you first shut it down then you could hear it lost a cylinder then the sucked in coolant blew the liner apart it may have been cracked already .i have couple cats cryo gen liners gapless #2 compression ring creramic coated steel piston crowns with poly coated alum skirts . built this way bottom ends last head gasket problems go away . i have couple sets of trains i used to run bc but gave up running the west but i would like to come and run the ice i have 2 cab over Kenworth's in excellent heath with belly tarps and winter fronts . i would prefer to work for a smaller company with my equipment if you know of any openings .
I've been driving a truck for 29 years always want to do some type of specialized driving like that I don't care what anybody says that guy sitting down there in that little cab steering unprotected claustrophobic takes a big set of balls LOL and I'm sorry about your truck I like that cabover.
@@dudepow ah cool, thats great. Nice old truck. Have you seen the New Zealand cabovers? They are 8x4 and the NZ truck drivers all slam them low and kit them out to the 9th. Ill try find you a link th-cam.com/video/yMLFQLiITK4/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=HaulinMedia
Its realy facinating to see just how far behind the great US of A is europe when it comes to advanced forms of transportation, trailers with steer axsels has been the norm in europe for atleast 25 years, remote controlled dollys atleast the last 20 years ,and here in 2023 the "merica'ns" still putt some poor dude in a small box ,under the load to steer the back dolly down the road............................
they broke the car. obviously, she was not capable of such transportation. or the car was poorly serviced. shortly we earned money and spent it on engine repairs.)
Why not just remote control the rear end? That's how we do it in Europe. You either steer it from the cab - or from a car driving behind. You can't see anything to the right side sitting in that small box - so what's the point? th-cam.com/video/l6ZY4czPc3M/w-d-xo.html

It would be perfect for me.
I've been running southeast to upper Midwest and Appalachia for close to 30 years.
Good video fantastic driving
Great clear video and a very scary job to have.
Stay safe guys!
Thanks
Great video!👍👍
old girl been putting in the work ain't she holy hell ((White cabover))
Love cabovers classics
To cool. Hope the ol b model cat is back together and hope to see more videos from you in the future
Ryan, it is back together and running great. More to come, heading to the Ice Road in a couple weeks. I’ll have some pics soon.

THANK YOU FOR GREAT VIDEO
Don't think the smoke from the engine would go down too well in Europe!
Great video..greeting from Indonesia👍🍻
12:46 Ummm, I think this could be a problem. I think we normally find this part in the engine and not on a tire. I could be wrong ! Great video.
Thanks for watching
2023 July My family go to Golden Skybridge. I saw the construction site in the video. Hanging bridges over the mountain waist.
6 or 8 of those could make a cool house 🏠

Awesome video and another new sub!

Noticed when you were pulling the load she was smoking down by the passenger steer tire. At least she waited to let go
That was excessive blow by,
Nice job,video! plus new sub.
Thanks
That steering dolly looks like one of the old ones from Davey Cartage? Saw them quite a bit when I worked on the PMH1 project
It is, and I also pulled it back in the Davey days.

Cool
Thanks for the video it was nice

Nice job w/ the video. I like seeing those older cats rollin black. Too bad she let go, will you stick to rebuild the B block or maybe go C-15?
Rebuilt her
At least the engine went after the job was done.
YUP
i would watch more of your stuff! sorry 4 the truck, hope you find a new engine.
Truck is rolling with rebuilt engine. More to come.
Would like to have seen how the steering dolly was towed.
Wow!
Damn... she let go pretty good there... time for a C-15 swap.... or if you want some big power a C-18
Nope. Rebuilt it!

Beautiful but would appreciate location very much
It’s between Richmond, BC and Golden BC. Also to Kitimat BC.
And this thruster only helps to turn, or does it also have an engine?
Steer only
That beam is the largest the States allow to carry Because Ive never seen one that long

I have not seen so much rust and dirt in the back cabin even in the videos from India or Pakistan.
Big shame!
Time for LS swap.
they broke the car. obviously, she was not capable of such transportation. or the car was poorly serviced.
shortly we earned money and spent it on engine repairs.)
Why not just remote control the rear end? That's how we do it in Europe.
You either steer it from the cab - or from a car driving behind.
You can't see anything to the right side sitting in that small box - so what's the point?
