Your Four chains Short unless you put the lock bar in on the Loader to keep it from Pivoting. If you leave it without that solid link you have to treat it as two seperate pieces (four chains on the front, Four on the back). Maybe you put the link bar (or whatever it's actually called) and didn't show it, just trying to keep ya from getting a $$$ ticket or worse having something awful happen and somebody get hurt. You can NEVER have enough chains on something IMHO. Stay safe!!
Pro tip what I always did was pop the switch for pin while it was still up then if it didn’t come up right away normally when you drop it down then it will come up
Awesome looking rig! One thought for future is covering that exhaust pipe if you’re not gonna leave it running, would really suck to grenade a turbo on one of those big machines.
Great job and hope you continue to have success. What’s the best way you have gotten work in general, and in the winter especially? Also when you do new home landscaping is that the homeowner calling you to do the work or is it the builder having you come out and do the sod, mulching, trees before they put it on the market. Thanks have a great week!
@@GarrettWilliams2017 Driving a day can 379 but grinding gears is better than my broken down Century Classic which I am fluent with the 13-speed. Also better to grind hers than having to deal with the insufferable "automated-manual" transmissions.
I know someone will say it’s not safe but I leave the loader all the way up when chaining the front then you are not trying to put the chains on the tie down points will your body jammmed in there.. I too hate grease on the clothes
The lift axel helps disperse the weight of a heavy load doing less damage to roadways during travel. Lift axels must be lifted through sharp turns or turning will be severely difficult if at all possible and in some cases with larger trailers could even cause you to tip. Lift axels can be left in the raised position when unloaded.
Sir, you drive and maneuver that lowboy like it is a little Toyota. Very impressive.
It’s his job
I always reconnect to the trailer before I tie down. Helps keep chains from flexing
Love it! Great advice on turning around before loading. “Like a wheel barrow” haha so true

i really enjoy watching your vids and how you explain what you doing and why you doing it step by step (new lowboy driver here)
Truck sounds healthy. Nice job 👍

If the machine is newer and has the d e f exhaust emissions control you dont need a turbo saver.
Sounds nice keep rocking man looking good. 🎉
One Sharp rig guys👌 keep up the hard work💪
Could use a little work syncing those gears on the dow shift but over all pretty good

I would have an amber led light bar on the truck for safety
You grind the gears man, come on!
Unfortunately I wasn’t born knowing how to drive a 379. Learning and improving though! Least it’s on my own tranny not someone else’s 💁🏼♂️

Is there a possibility of seeing the new t86 or s86 in the future? 😉

That’s 4 more chains then I would have used. Way to be safe driver. 😅
Great video!

Shouldn’t have x the bucket with the chains ⛓️💥 and I mean cross chain it?
What size are the steer tires
Twin cats are so bad ass
Nice content bro
Have you ever transported a backhoe with a hammer or excavator with a hammer
Can’t say that I have. We don’t really ever have a need for hammers for what we do.
I’ve done an excavator with a hammer if you have a question about it

You should always face the equipment, when getting in or out.
You could have done a face plant, the way you got out.
SAFETY ALWAYS!

Far from it. Looks can be deceiving.
