He just had way more weight on the truck than necessary and likely safe and to drive down the highway smoothly and properly. Positioning of weight in and on a trailer makes a big difference.

GO TO NAPA AND FOR $100 AND AN AFTERNOON SHOWING YOUR KID DRUM BRAKES INSTALL NEW BRAKE LINES AND WHEEL CYLINDERS it might just save your life or the walls of your shop. Believe it or not your local Napa will have a book on Clark lifts all the way back to the 60s and if they don’t have the parts in stock they can have them next day.

    VersaDump, made my MidSota MFG. An amazing Minnesota company that is by far the best trailer manufacturer in the USA. I love my MidSota trailer and so does everyone I know. I also toured their facilities, great building and the fabricators are very skilled.

    Don't you have a backhoe for your tractor, you could have dug 2 trenches and backed the trailer into it and it would have been a piece of cake.

    I moved my 1970's toyota all terrain forklift twice with an 18' steel deck car trailer and 8' ramps. 1st move was when I bought it, about 100 mile drive , then second time was about a 10 mile drive. Slow going for everything went good.

    The rental yard near me has a trailer that doesn’t have axles under it so the deck drips level to the ground. It’s an excellent forklift hauler! I just had to tell them my pettibone Mercury was under 10k, which I feel was the truth, but not by much! I feel for you with those hard rubber tires, mine was stuck all the time out in the gravel.

    Back as a teenager, I worked at a Polaris shop. We had a very similar fork lift and we used it in the yard out back of the shop. It was on a hill, most of it not paved. I look back now at how many things could have gone wrong so many times while working there. But at the time the thought of danger never crossed my mind.

  • @thefishinglor6931

    Its able to lift a lot because it weighs a lot. Id imagine it weighs a little more than it’s lifting capacity.

    I have done some sketchy things with a fork lift. Idle time is the devils hand. Got one stuck on a low dock plate and a short box truck when I was 16. Used them to change lights in the warehouse when the safety folks were gone. Tied a rope in the rafter of the warehouse, backed up the fork and raised it to create a huge rope swing......Dont do that.
    What I would recommend trying is put a guy on a wooden pallet with a rope handle, whip that rear wheel drive forklift around in circles. Just like taking turns on water skis, with a much harder landing.

    Make sure you have enough propane and diesel fuel for both vehicles with forks at each location. I'd hate to see it trucked off to the new homestead. I'm expecting a video series on how to replace brakes on a Clark forklift this winter

    Wranglerstar, As an East Coast Man I would use the Warn winch on the pick-up. Disconnect the trailer and put the nose of the truck up to the trailer tongue area and run the cable over the top to the fork lift. You could load and unload with a much lower heart rate. Nice job anyway.

    @kentuckycornbread8502 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    We had to move a few forklifts from our current factory over to a neighboring building we rented. It also includes crossing rail road tracks and going down a concrete ramp. NEVER AGAIN! I think I lost a filling in my tooth from the tracks. Going down the ramp, I hit the brakes too hard. The back end swung around slightly and almost tipped over. I let off the brakes and rode it down the ramp. It’s a totally different world being on an indoor forklift outside. Glad everything went well for ya.

    I always wondered about your forklift. It was probably manufactured about 20 minutes from my house. It’s expensive out there to haul one, I had mine hauled an hour away for $100 and I ended up giving the guy a big tip because that poor old ford diesel was smoking like a freight train. Definitely heavy! Good job!

  • @horakrepair2546
    @horakrepair2546 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Forklifts don't usually injure people....they kill. Have hauled forklifts in dump trailers quite often, the steel deck even with a smidge of dew or oil can make for a bad day. Add a winch to the equation and it becomes a fairly simple task to load and unload.

  • @christopherallenpalmer4222
    @christopherallenpalmer4222 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Build a tramp out of earth with railroad ties. Also a wear surface out of class 2 AB ( asphalt base) on top. Railroad ties to create vertical laying horizontal , bolted if you like, and couple vertical post ties. at loading end. It's how we do it in the earthmoving industry. Saves time, one guy, and much safer. As much iron as you have, it is efficient. If tractor gets moved to shop. Use it for pickups, trailers, deliveries. Also, you have what looks like asphalt around shop. Depending on how hot it gets, keep a couple of bags of sand to lightly cover approach and departures if wheels are tearing it up turning too sharply. Looks like a nice job. Plant flowers around ramp. That'll be a first.

  • @wildcatwilly

    Cody I've laid over a forklift we run 10 or 12 of them at different warehouses. You maybe good enough to run it without brakes with all your experience. However if you wouldn't put Jack or Jiraiya on it without a second thought you should fix it up. Thoughts of an East coast man... Great vid keep up the good work!

  • @grambam

    As someone who has driven a forklift in an industrial setting for almost seven years I've had many instances where I would have to use the reverse gear as a brake and it's always been a sphincter tightening experience
    Glad it worked out for you.
