Great job mate., they sure make it hard for you guys in Canada and the States, In Australia your job would have been done with a Drake 100 t 4 rows of 8 and 2 rows of 2 Dolly , Drive on drive off but spose we have a lot less traffic and big wide open country.

An interesting and intricate job. Hard work. Could have used some help. Doug really knows his job. I'm retired, now, but if I could start again I'd choose heavy equipment instead of mindless, boring masonry work.
How we do it in Australia is about 1/10 th the amount of work and about 1/4 of the time. I assume it has to be done this way to keep the height down and spread the axles out more for bridge loading.
Yes it pays better than regular transport but not enough for what we deal with everyday. The guys who get into heavy haul just for the money don’t last.
I’m from Oklahoma, when I 1st started driving I always thought that I would like to do heavy haul, ended up doing hazmat. Most of the fellows I have seen they load up the jeep not the booster, oh well 1 is as good as the other. I do have a question where do you work, that might make a difference. Thank you Sir for your video, very nice.
Personal choice. I prefer to load the booster because there are less steps involved if you need to back up with just the jeep. With the booster on the ground you need to get out, walk back and fight with the locking pin in order to back up
The loader in the Background is an International Harvester 560 Wheel Loader, noted by the white cab assembly and engine covering. Prior to International, this loader was known as Hough Loaders, then International bought Hough, then Dresser Industries bought the remaining pieces of International after Komatsu destroyed what was left of International Harvester.
Dispatch wants to know how soon you can get back to the CAT Plant. They got another 88 to move going to the same place. Oh, and just use those permits over again! 😂
@@luckybananaheavyhaul3407 ,,,question when pulling the beam/booster out: is the bogey equipped with automatic brake-cagers? ...as in, normally when you disconnect the supply airline, the parking brakes apply. Considering you hooked the pull-chains to the tractor-bumper, how did you release the parking brakes (or, can you supply air to release the parking brakes from the brake-chambers?)..
@andrep8287 before disconnecting I install a ball valve on the emergency brake glad hand keeping the air in the system to keep the parking brake released.
Hey Dude, at 32:11 how would you go about placing this trailer extension on the main trailer if you don't have a loader like this CAT? Thank you, Alexandre, São Paulo, Brazil.
Um you took the back dolley off why not stack the front jeep (or whatever its called) on as well. Interesting getting trl out from under. How you load it though special area or just back it on with wood the entire way?
Loading we usually get another loader or forklift to push the trailer under. Those 12 x 12 hardwood blocks are heavy and it’s a lot of work to put wood all the way. I only removed the back dolley because my annual permit allows me up to 30 meters long in Quebec. By only removing the back dolley I’m short enough to move legally without additional permit and escorts.
I just moved two 980's yesterday and that joystick steering was fkn wierd. Only other joystick machine i moved was a M12 grader but those arent so bad because of the long wheelbase.
@luckybananaheavyhaul3407 I bet they do on a new machine. Both the ones I moved had almost 20,000 hrs on them and the centering springs had gone soft. I noticed the stick was drifting ever so slightly without me touching it. I did like the ergonomics of it don't get be wrong, but definitely something to keep a close eye on for those of us that move rentals and well-worn machines regularly.
I love the way America does stuff! Those trucks, machines and not to mention the work ethic! We in the UK are lagging somewhat, though hopefully catching up! Semper Fi USA!
That's a awesome piece of equipment I just don't like the joystick controls I want a steering wheel. There ok once you get used to them but I want a wheel
nice nice run through with the whole unload sequence , I don't hurry either , just have a pattern of moves Ihat I go through on my daily lowboy loads that actually minimize any waste , mostly paving related , asphalt buggies , wirtgen mills , rollers , excavators & misc , some side dump or super solo mixed in , been rockin it for 30+yrs with some type of truckin hauls but love being the person now for equipment moves , never seems to get too old..haha...look me up if rounding your way to the pacific nw maybe .....DL
Always knew it's a process to move one of these things... didn't really to this extent... Nice to watch a guy actually doing something instead of people just talking acting like they are
@gavinperry7237 Quebec heavy haul restrictions are much different than the rest of the world ( don’t blame me, I just live there) often loads need to be transferred onto different trailers with different axle configurations.
@danielcollins....like any other commodity....you check it over for pre-existin scratches, scuffs or other damage at time of pickup (when in doubt, mark it as damaged), and hope that by the time you arrive at the consignee, the results are still the same! You likely did notice, that Doug placed a (rubber/plastic) cover over the CATs windshield.
On actual hook points like tow hook I don’t bother but if I’m going to chain over a freshly painted axle or frame than I will put padding under the chain to keep scratches minimal.
Je me suis toujours demandé c'est quoi l'avantage d'un derrière de fardier aussi long? Être flush aux roues avec un booster plus long ne donnerais pas le même résultat ?? Merci pour le vidéo 🤟🤟
Ça prends 14 pieds entre les deux set de roues pour avoir doit à plus de poids. Ils appelons ce style de remorque une California 9 ( même ci on a changé le jeep 2 pour un jeep 3 )
If only. These loads still require a height pole. Believe it or not we still hit wires in NY state. The northeast is a pain for height. All this to have a better routing. Thanks for watching 😊
Tbh that seemed like a lot of aggravation with the trailer after unloading the cat ? Do u guys not have 3 axle or 4 axle depending on weight carried obviously rear steer low loader trailers in Canada ? Not judging just curious class 1/CDL driver from the UK , or is it down to the transport regulations there ? Just seems overly long and drawn out process to me ? Is there no way to streamline transporting oversize loads such as plant machinery ? In the UK and Europe they would either just drop the ramp or ramps at the back of the trailer and jus drove the cat off the back of the trailer , or disconnected the truck and the axles at the front of the trailer as u did, and unloaded it that way by driving the cat off ? Simples lol is this not an option ?
Unfortunately we (in the northeast of North America) deal with low bridges and overhead wires which is why this style of trailer is used. Also our roads and bridges are so poorly engineered that we are required to use these long trailers in order to spread the weight out. Now you know!

Ça prends 14 pieds entre les deux set de roues pour avoir doit à plus de poids. Ils appelons ce style de remorque une California 9 ( même ci on a changé le jeep 2 pour un jeep 3 )
He made it look easy because he usually does it blindfolded.
Haha. It’s not that bad. Just need to visualize which steps go in what order.
Un homme méticuleux ,
Impressionnant. ! Calme
Plaisant à regarder travailler.
Merci 😊
I wondered how they loaded and unloaded those big machines
Is there ever an occasion to load very wide tracked vehicles like this? Both tracks straddling the trailer with undercarriage on bed of trailer?
Yes I have done that but I don’t have it on video yet
Great job.
All this to not have to use a height pole car.
But I say again good job love you're videos and no disrespect intended. 😀
If only. These loads still require a height pole. Believe it or not we still hit wires in NY state. The northeast is a pain for height. All this to have a better routing.
Thanks for watching 😊
Tbh that seemed like a lot of aggravation with the trailer after unloading the cat ? Do u guys not have 3 axle or 4 axle depending on weight carried obviously rear steer low loader trailers in Canada ? Not judging just curious class 1/CDL driver from the UK , or is it down to the transport regulations there ? Just seems overly long and drawn out process to me ? Is there no way to streamline transporting oversize loads such as plant machinery ? In the UK and Europe they would either just drop the ramp or ramps at the back of the trailer and jus drove the cat off the back of the trailer , or disconnected the truck and the axles at the front of the trailer as u did, and unloaded it that way by driving the cat off ? Simples lol is this not an option ?
Unfortunately we (in the northeast of North America) deal with low bridges and overhead wires which is why this style of trailer is used. Also our roads and bridges are so poorly engineered that we are required to use these long trailers in order to spread the weight out. Now you know!
@@luckybananaheavyhaul3407 thanks for explaining 👍👍👍
Wow that takes all day unhooking and hooking up
It is a big job!
Do you ever find the time, or the need, to attend😊your local Gymnasium ?.😅
Not every day is this physically demanding but in general the truck drivers who do this type of transport tend to be in better shape than the rest 🤣
Beau travail. HOURRA.
Amazing how those 988's have grown! The loader in the background looks to be an early one. Great video!
Every model gets beefier. These K’ and the XE’s are big pieces
@@luckybananaheavyhaul3407 There was a time when 992's were manageable pieces.
Now they are only manageable in pieces 🤣

The loader in the Background is an International Harvester 560 Wheel Loader, noted by the white cab assembly and engine covering. Prior to International, this loader was known as Hough Loaders, then International bought Hough, then Dresser Industries bought the remaining pieces of International after Komatsu destroyed what was left of International Harvester.
When the load is the loader...
That old loader in the background almost looks like a toy compared to the one just delivered.
Biggest Cat I was ever on or around was a D10. Used for pushing coal.
Good sized machine 👍
