Towing an abandoned truck out of the forest.

- This video and the next few that you will see are from the prep work that was done ahead of the public lands cleanup, but I wanted to get the video of the cleanup itself out as quick as possible to show the amazing efforts put in and results gained by the volunteers who came out. So things may seem out of order for a bit, but getting the cleanup video out first was worth it. This video also looks quite a bit different because no one was available to come along and help film, and we had way to much work to do for me to do my normal style of filming by myself, so I strapped a 360 camera on and filmed it @RonPratt style!

As x tow truck driver please stop picking up vehicles on your sling straps. One day they may rip out of the 6op of your sling and may hurt you or someone else.
You’re supposed to lift by the sling straps. The chains are supposed to be loose and are only there as a safety
@@CaseyLaDelle the straps were originally there to protect the old bumpers from getting damaged when being lifted and towed. Your chains are 100 times stronger than the sling belt ever will be. Your doing a gr8 job with the equipment you have. Enjoy your roll back they are a gr8 equipment when used to make your job and life easier.
@@warrenprezioso3365 no they aren’t. You need to educate yourself on how slings are designed to be used, because you are flat out WRONG.
The sling straps are NOT simply pieces of rubber. Actual sling belts have three steel cables inside of each one that are looped on the end around the bolt hole on each end of the belt, and the belts for this truck are rated for a working load limit of 6,600 pounds per pair. The 5/16” grade 70 chains are supposed to be a safety backup to the belts, and are rated at 9,400 pounds per pair, which is not even a 30% higher weight rating, let alone “100 times”. But all of that is irrelevant since the winch cables themselves are only rated to a working load limit of 3,750 pounds each, or 7,500 pounds when used as I have then here. But what makes that even MORE irrelevant is the fact that the back of those truck is nowhere even close to any of those ratings so this is perfectly safe and correct.
A chest mounted 360
Cam was definitely quite a bit different way to film, but I had a lot to do that day and no one to film so I gave it a shot. Kinda cool and kinda weird all at the same time
Not quite Ron Pratt style since he uses a GoPro on his hard hat but still your method works in a pinch.
Several wrecker pros use the hard hat and chest mounted cams. The hard hat ones are better because your chest isn't always pointing where you're looking.
The camera works for outside the truck, but not so much when you are driving. Good job removing all that trash! When do the vehicles get removed entirely from the pit?
It messes with my motion sickness, I had to keep scrolling down to the comments while the video played so I didn't see half of the video.
Thank you for cleaning all that mess up
Not that you need confirmation, but what you explained about the weight transference on the wrecker's axles is correct. The only thing that matters is the distance between the pick point and the center of the rear axle (fulcrum point). You get an 'A' from this retired engineering professor! Enjoy your videos Casey, keep up the good work!
Yeah, the thing people miss is that It makes a difference to the internal stresses and load paths on the truck, but the net result at the tires is dependent only on where mass is, not how it's connected.
You may not be very good at everything, but you are very good at helping your community and the forest. Thank You!
What a difference it makes when you don't have salt on your roads you don't even see old trucks like that in Ontario anymore haven't seen one in many many years. Even the abandoned ones have turned back into the Earth by now.
Thank You for your help in cleaning up the beautiful forests!👍😎 You sir are an awesome human being 😊 Keep up the great work and stay safe out there!❤️🙏
That brown F Truck was some one’s pride an joy once. Better then all the lap top ones of today . 👍🏻🇦🇺
“Tweakers do some weird things” Truer words have never been spoken.
Always a fun collage in the western states of tweaker madness, people out east don’t realize all the weird stuff we see in the backcountry of the west 😂
you guys have accomplished a lot of work Casey, bravo to all who helped.
Things I miss. Wing windows and dimmer switch on the floorboard
Looks like the "new" tow truck is working out pretty nice.
@Casey. No lie. I never knew about auto retracting straps. I paused the video and bought some. BY FAR the part I hate about straps is the coiling up of strap etc. This is the answer to my biggest annoyance with straps.
I also use the Ecoflow solar generator, great system. It’s amazing the vehicles that end up out in the woods.
That tow truck came onto the scene just in time .. good thing that whole dance worked out 🤜💥🤛
Incredible job you are all doing Casey. Thanks for the ride. ❤️🇦🇺🇺🇸
I'm hooked on your 'hook' idea!!!
Another Good Job Casey!!!
A huge THANK YOU to you and all the volunteers for helping clean up our forests!!
Safe travels friend...
Stay FROSTY...
Keep your powder dry and your head on a swivel...
🇺🇸🇺🇸WWG1WGA🇺🇸🇺🇸NCSWIC🇺🇸🇺🇸
Wonderful effort to clear the vehicles from the camping areas.
Casey, what a great example of how to use every single facet or your rig and expertise. However, I know this is well known and observed by you, but one slip up in the process could result in dangerous outcome for you. Plus, many times you are well off the beaten path and working alone. Although you are quite aware of the risks, please try to never cut corners. I realize that is impossible to do, but the world needs more good men like you!
Nice job Casey!! I know the work you do for the PLS is appreciated more than you will ever know!!
Yes, this new tow truck is sooo nice to do jobs like this....and you of course!
Casey, once again, you did your good deed for the day!! you are a genuine good man!!
Enjoyed Video! You 👋 bye to all your treasures 🤣. Thank You for helping clean our forests!
Good clean the forest project
Just a quick thanks.. as a fellow Oregonian, I really appreciate your time and hard work on preserving and restoring the forests. Keep up the great work, and I look forward to helping you some day.
Another good day out of the office! Can you post again your auto ratchets. I went to buy some for the new truck, and I could not find any. Love the concept. Thanks again!
Yea, I’d like to know what those are called too
Casey, thank you for all you do to help keep this world in a better place by being cleaner! It is absolutely disgustingly amazing that people just dump their cars anywhere. If they took them to a scrap metal place they probably could make money. I guess people that dump cars in the forest, the beautiful forest, just don’t have any sense at all.
You can’t take cars to the scrap yard unless they are titled in your name
I will never understand why people discard vehicles or trash out in the woods. The vehicles, regardless of shape, should have some value, even as scrap. Oh well, thanks, Casey and all the volunteers who clean up the woods.
Yep, I would have bought some of these parts if they were for sale.
But you normally need the vehicle title to take it to the scrap yard
As Casey alluded to when talking about running the license plate, those vehicles are likely stolen and when they're no longer wanted/needed, left out in the woods.
Thank goodness for people like you and keeping the forest clean there where you're live
You are so kind to give of your time toward making this project successful.
Thanks for sharing.
I could never understand why people are so disrespectful of the land and just trash it. 🤷♂️
I totally agree!
My thoughts are that our severely weakened society has made it easier for lazy folks to just make their morally responsible issues someone elses problem. I can only hope they get their day in court some day.
Thank you Casey like always great info when you film stuff...... I am definitely learning a lot more about how to tow better..
I liked the camera view on this one. Different, but quite interesting!
Casey, I believe most states have gone to a similar process as Oregon DMV.
I know in my state if an item has title, salvage/junk yards are required by law to provide reasonable effort to insure they are not receiving stolen vehicles. Even apparent trash vehicles must be processed through the state’s dmv before any thing that is vin stamped can be sold. I know of a few salvage yards that have been financially (fines) closed due to selling items prior to dmv processing. I have a friend that is a retired Highway Patrol officer that did just that type of investigation prior to retiring.
Great job to everybody that helped
its an absolute joy watching you casey
What you do there is really great ! We don’t have that problem in Wyoming, but then we have such a small population compared to your area. Hats off to you !
This area of the forest is literally 5 minutes from the downtown of a city of over 100K people. That is the biggest problem here
Thanks for the great video.
Today was a rough one and ending it with a new casey ladelle video makes it alot better.
Great video and great job with the recovering God bless from GA
So glad to see more clean up videos. Great job. And F the coach surfers.
awesome action with the 360. and for the chest mount, awesome as well!
Well done Casey, I do hope Karma bites these people hard for all of this. You and the volunteers helping out show just how many GOOD people there are in the world, kindhearted souls, but dang, there doo be some folks who need something to get them where it hurts and wake them up. God Bless you for helping out Casey.
very well done Casey
I agree, it is totally stupid having to go through that lengths process to scrap those stupid vehicles. But I bet the reason they have to go through that is because somewhere they scrapped a vehicle that someone was "going to go back for", or such and they successfully sued the Forest Service for destroying their property. It's always one jack wagon that causes trouble for everyone else. But thankfully all the hardworking volunteers coming together to clean these areas makes up for the few that don't care. I humbly thank each one of you for keeping Oregon beautiful. Thanks for taking us along. Stay safe and GOD bless
Great video. It's great to see the level of help you have taking care of your recreational areas. What a way to promote this work and get more people interested in helping. My wife and I would be there if we lived in your area. Congrats.
I hope they can trace the culprits and charge them. Good work guys, greetings from Australia
Casey you going to need your truck detailed after this .😉😁
Interesting cam perspective today. It did the job that it needed to do. Thanks for the details on the chaining. Btw enough of the axel weight thing. If they are still in denial you can’t fix stupid!
Back in the late 1980's I knew a guy that lived in the woods on property owned by a relative. He had collected a few junk cars and was using them for parts. I added one to the collection. They were out in the trees out of sight. Several years later I got a letter about an abandoned car in a small town at least 30 miles from where I had left that car. The car was "found" at a scrap metal yard. The property where the private salvage yard was had been sold, and somebody cleaned up the mess. I always wondered how it got in to town from where I last saw it with no engine, or drivetrain. I guess they did it kinda like you guys are doing here. The letter was one of those you talk about from the Oregon DMV. I think they were different then, but I did respond that I would give up ownership. I can't remember all the details.
It's always amusing to see who and what you watch on TH-cam, although I don't know where you find the time!
Pointless
Casey your area needs to setup FPV drone flying over these areas. Have the pilots partner with the local Agencies. They’ll get video evidence of the dumpers in action and the problem can be fixed at the source. As you pointed out those two trucks were probably the same person thanks to the creative exhaust mods seen
With new trucks, especially the electric one's you should be able to setup the door open buzzer to sound like vintage trucks. Brings back memories.
I want to cut the buzzer wire.
Hard work is great, I could watch it all day 😉 fantastic job as always, you make me wish I was in your country so I could come help
Casey, well done once again clear and simple explanation for one and all. The BLM are doing a great proactive job and getting the public help is a testament to the people in you area.🍻🇦🇺
This is a forest service project, not blm
You are such a good guy 👍
great video Casey
Good job Casey!
Nice work
Aquafina is a Pepsi product. When I worked for Pepsi I would freeze 2 - 1 litter's and 2 - half full 1 litter's bottles of water. I would take 2 - 1 litter's and 2 - half full 1 litter's bottles of frozen water. So, I had 8 bottle's on rotation and the 2 - half full bottles I would top off before I went to work. No cooler needed, just double plastic bagged.
Love the chest mounted 360 cam!! Let’s you get all the angles without a second pair of hands.
I would love to get some parts off them campers.
Old Ford truck looks like a good fixer upper
Some how I see a definite upgrade besides the headlights from Am-Autoparts...
You need the remotes for your hydraulic controls!!!
Cool, a bumblebee carrying a car😎
I miss wing windows and floor vents.
Up here we call those junkers field cars. Some like to strip them to the frame. Made them lighter and kept the tires from getting cut after getting hit.
Neat little trick for ya Casy, leave it hooked, boom out and up , cable over the top and lift it back towards you,
Roll out yur dolly from under a completely suspended truck.
Save two movements and time.
Your welcome 👍😂
I’ve done exactly that before, but there is zero chance I’m doing that with a long bed truck loaded backwards.
Always take the light bar off first - trust me. Sounds like there's more than one T-Shirt moment there?
You’re skinny hop in …is how people go missing 😎
That's mini Truckin, ask DIrthead Dave.
Great work but I get you like your refrigerator but I'm going to start calling you HeavyDsparksJR if it keeps prominently showing up in every video from now on. 🤣
That Cat machine sounds like the travel motors are near dead.
Provided you can get the title, that F series would make a great basis for another project!
It’s scrap metal.
The process is the same here in Massachusetts when it comes to abandoned vehicles that have only scarp value.
Is that one year or several years of accumulation of abundant vehicles? Great that there are volunteers to clean up the mess.
One
I drove wreckers back in 80-90, so-cal and Boston Ma. Carried 2 jack stands on my trucks. For changing flats on the side of the freeway and setting dolly's. on the freeway 99% you pull to the front of the tow/flat, i would hook or wheel lift the easy side then fulcrum/jack stand the other end.... UP. makes for quicker, safer. i was trained by a guy that started driving wreckers in the 60's. the tricks he knew.
That’s a good trick for older or junk vehicles, but doesn’t work with most modern vehicles
I wrote to u on a previous u-tube about a fixer upper home and property that I bought and cleaned up, an continue to clean up, on the upper Klamath Lake, and next to the Williamson river. I have a neighbor who is female, very elderly, that I see walking to her mailbox with a walker. I believe she lost her husband so there is no one to help clean up her property. I myself am disabled and was barely able to continue cleaning my own property...Her property has a little beat up house, another deteriorated old mobil home trailer, sheds, old farm equipment, an old barn, bags and bags of household trash all over the property, maybe a few old cars and trucks...I'm sure it draws mice and rats. She prob does not have the ability or the money to clean the place up..She could use some help...I think the county has been on her before about cleaning the place up..She lives in the country, on Modoc point Rd, in Chiloquin, OR, just across from Day School Rd....I can just imagine how much trash, rusty metal, and other stuff that is leaking into our water table from this property...Not to mention rats...We are just next to the Upper Klamath Lake and within blocks from the Williamson river...all of the few homes out here are on water wells and it worries me what might be creeping and seeping into our water systems...If u know anyone in our area, that does what u do, that can help...please do.. Our environment is so important..Up Modoc Point Rd there is also a bird sanctuary, parks and hikers path...We need to be helpers and caretakers of the land...I have huge, beautiful Bald Eagles and Golden Eagles that come sit on my fence posts and hunt the cattle fields for mice and snakes. They are beautiful to watch and I fear they will become sick from all the garbage and junk around the area. Chiloquin, OR. is a very poor town and area, and seems to be forgotten by Klamath County..what a shame ..Please help...Classy
You should restore that truck it’s really nice put tracks on it and do recoveries 😜
Love it 🤣
Tkz for another day in the out doors. The high country is soo different to my sub tropics.
Any chance you could try saying a few Clint Eastwood lines? You got his height, reach and built. And looks.
Gaze intently and 'finish off' some wrecks with a hand gun.
I need a set of those auto strap s
I’m liking my #setpower it works great in my semi. In the car with the engine off it didn’t last as long especially in warmer temperatures but great for traveling
Awesome work! Local TV celebrity as well as fantastically entertaining TH-camr. Love those retractable straps. Would love to know where you got them?
MyTee Products
Was just watching and started thinking….I know Ford made that chassis with a PTO you could order from the factory. Don’t know how hard it would be to find one and install one. Don’t know if it would help you but a PTO winch would be sweet. It’s an International Harvester built motor. Keep the ph of the coolant correct and it’ll last 700,000. Starter relay buy spare. But it can always be started with a screwdriver too. Right under the hood. I was able to fit a banks turbo on one. I don’t know if banks makes it for that motor anymore
It's pretty cool that you do this kind of thing! i like that you tried the first person video, it worked out pretty good for you. I've wondered if it would be handy to have a robotic camera mount with a joystick or one that can track your movements for your videos. Maybe one of those companies should reach out to sponsor a video or two.
Do you have any self retracting ratcheting straps that you prefer?
As often as I drop or just flat forget to pick up things that are rust colored and lose them in the dirt, I would be SOOOOOOO tempted to paint all the chains, and gear some obnoxiously florecent color.
I already wrap flo orange duct tape on some of my small hand tools that I keep in my truck that are for very specific uses.
This is crazy how people abandon vehicles or stolen vehicles end up in the woods.
Seeing the junk car/rv staging area is crazy.
13:45 - Look at that white van!! Someone had a party.
I’m always curious what a tow costs? I know there is different variables. Not really my business. Great stuff bro
I don’t charge anything
At first I thought it was a giant bee making off with a wrecked car 😉😂
Thanks for taking care of the environment Casey. Oh wow there's a lot of vehicles been recovered, are some of those vehicles from the last time you cleaned up?? If so when do they get taken for a junk yard . How long does it take to go through the DMV process. Yep! Your right it is stupid.
Nice job, Casey. Your volunteer work is outstanding. When will the wrecker get real "A/C"?
Probably next spring. It’s an expensive repair and it’s getting close to winter time, so it will have to wait
@@CaseyLaDelle I know the pain, replaced everything in wife's Dodge truck a few years ago.
If I was closer I would be interested in the campers
Pretty cool what you and the other volunteers do, it is a shame you have to do it so often. I was thinking (it hurt) but maybe the DMV process helps prevent abuse? I don't know just playing a little devil's advocate. And the chest cam was okay and I agree "Kinda cool and kinda weird all at the same time".
YAY OH YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Looks like a 10.25 full float
Thanks for the interesting and informative video Casey. Your descriptions and explanations as you're securing the truck for towing are brilliant. Were all of the vehicles at the storage area just from this one clean up or were some from the clean up a few months ago? Also, the short clip of the media interview was great. You present really well 👍
That is from three different cleanups.
@@CaseyLaDelle ahhh, ok. Well, while there's nothing good about all the dumped/abandoned vehicles and other trash, it's good to hear that not all the cars in that staging area are "new additions" since the last clean up! Keep up the good fight mate. If I wasn't 9000 miles from your location, I'd lend a hand! Doing my bit here though 🤟
You may have said but having the license and vin num would mean that they could trace the last owner. Is there any effort to go after these people?
The last owner who did paperwork with the DMV after buying it. Who knows how many off the books sales (or trade for drugs or whatever) there were after that. Or they might be outright stolen...
Why would you go after someone who as absolutely nothing to do with the vehicle being left in the woods??
There's NOTHING you can do to these dirt bags. They just lie and say, someone stole it or their brother-in-law did it. I used to deal with them ad nauseum and it would make me so mad!
@@RealJeep or they legitimately did sell the vehicle and the purchaser never registered it into their name. Meaning that the person who the vin is tied to has absolutely nothing to do with that vehicle being out there
That is the way a lot of DMV work as a safty value to prevent the process of laundering stolen vehicles.
The Truck is stil got for a Rebiuld as cor for Kabine, Frame, Engine, Transmission and Bad!
Casey I have learned that government has a certain way that they do things it may not make sense but it is there policy.
I don't understand why people question you on how you do things. Since you are good at what you do
