Machine is a Terex 82-30. If it is pre 1973 it will have a 6-71 (FA) or a 6-71T (FAT). Post 1973 it will have a 8V71T (GA). Bit hard to tell with this machine because of the muffled over cab exhaust fitted. Good to see a 'Green Meanie' in action.
actually the rack was untouched except for some battery acid, the truck jacknifed as it went off so the logs slid PAST the cab instead of THROUGH it...
Nothing wrong with how that truck was recovered. Last thing you want to do is release the brakes. If a cable snaps or comes off, that unit is gonna roll right back down to where they started. Not at all safe. Brakes being locked ain't gonna hinder the progress one bit.
Thanks for sharing a tough moment. Definitely a nice rig. Hope it was brought back to life as nice. Great Cat work -- Skilled operator. Please provide info on how the rig went in the brush? Anything to do with the tight switchback?
The dozer is a Terex and it looks like it's a 82-30. The "bare-dry shipping weight" of the 82-30 is about 50,000 lbs (I could get the manuals out to see what it really is weight wise but there down at the shop). Terex's were made by GM (General Motors) but they no longer make the 82-30 and GM sold the Terex brand years ago.
Looks like an expensive day happened here. I well imagine that truck back on the road soon after, with a huge repair bill to pay. Wonder if the owner did this, or a paid driver?
Poor ole girl :/ Hope no one lost their life/was injured on that ride. As an aside, my asshole always draws up when I see people standing that close to a cable under tension. scary stuff.
in fact it was the whole axle - it sheared the U-bolts. It was a real asspain to move because i forgot to have the catskinner pick it up for me. It took about as long for me to move the axle as it did to get the rest of the truck
Hope I am not being a pain, but I went through my annals and the 82-20 had a 6V71T. Has quadrajet viewed the TC-12 in action under the title 'The Jolly Green Giant'?. What a machine that is.
the guy at the end in clean bluejeans and clean hoodie looks like a truck driver. and he has gloves to keep his hands soft for the lot lizards ha ha ha
yah ok but maybe all his brakes (fondation brakes, jake and so on) broke or whatever, then he would have come way too fast and there he goes... or whatever
first off they should have pulled the dozer ahead when pulling up the truck using the winch... secondly why did they not release the brakes when pulling up hill?
where's the front wheels gone? vanished? the gear box also gone. i think someone has stole it and brought to the nearest steel factory to be sell. haha
Should have brought in a loader. Or got in and released brakes n or take iut of gear. Dont want to bend the truck frame. Could pick it off the ground and drug it up easier. Maybe.

That is one seriously tough bulldozer. Talk about torque balls!!

Yeah, don't try to adjust the air brakes from standing on the step reaching through the window.

When you cruise youtube and find your old crew, you miss logging even more.....
on newer trailers the brakes lock when the air is diconnected
where did this happen at? and how did this happen? i mean the road is dry and the road looks wider than most woods roads, unbelieveable
That and some generous editing. I would ask if this was secretly neil giving himself props except he'd call himself a catskinner.
Well that and the several violations we would have been issued for operating with saturated soil conditions. I did mention this is CA right?
Never heard of a 10 cylinder engine in a dozer like that, that one sure sounded like 6 cylinders..
bruce werner it's a 2 stroke that's why it sounds like that
The dozer, terexs are heavy and petes are light (once the logs are off that is)
Poor ole girl :/
Hope no one lost their life/was injured on that ride.

Were the brakes locked on the trailer on the way up from the wreck?
in fact it was the whole axle - it sheared the U-bolts. It was a real asspain to move because i forgot to have the catskinner pick it up for me. It took about as long for me to move the axle as it did to get the rest of the truck
poor ol pete looked like a sweet truck, was it yours?
Love that old Terex!
5
tryn to straightn the road out was he?
so how did it get down there..
love the sound of screamin detroits got a couple skidders that work in our area that are old detroits love that sound

@Multimentalisti what makes you think drinking had anything to do with it?
heh,another day at work,i lost track of how many logging trucks i've picked up and set back on the road,at least it wasn't a thousand feet down !
wow. it was a nice pete. see thats why I drive dry vans. kudos to log haulers!
Looks like Jeff Bradshaw,("TH-cam's""Elderly Iron: This Old Truck",
Author/Host on the sidelines!!
did you guys stop for a break and top up the oil in the terex? burnt like 5 gallons by the looks off it haha
I would definatly say thata a DD 2 stroker. Maybe a 4-71 or something.
Hope the driver was fine
stuff like that happens all the time, it is the nature of the beast
Is the truck reuuseable
I stand corrected. Would like to see your 82-30E in action.
So was the guy drunk or stoned?
What kind of dolly is that?
That's why you should never text and drive especially driving a logging truck😎
+tracks which provide alot of traction and low gears
That looks like a Terex 82-20B
I used to drive chip truck in the woods. 80'000 lbs and muddy roads, yehaa!
Terex dozer with a Detroit 2 stroke engine? rare if ever there was a production model.
All terex had detroits in them.
stillenma it wasnt just the tires missing the front wheels were missing
@tdblues sounds like lyrics to a good ol country tune ha ha. Nothing but the truth man!
Great operator wll done
is the truck thats towing have a w 12 diesel ?
Did he keep his job ????
+slimchancetoo He was an independant operator
IC. Well I bet he wishes he had not done it.
the guy at the end in clean bluejeans and clean hoodie looks like a truck driver. and he has gloves to keep his hands soft for the lot lizards ha ha ha
Unfortunately the winch is in the back...
really dose not look like that bad of a recovery job bose was thinking i just got new tires for that truck lol
@TugOwar трос был размотан всего на несколько метров, даже если бы он лопнул, люди стояли достаточно далеко и не пострадали бы
givin that ole dresser a fit
how you figure?
yah ok but maybe all his brakes (fondation brakes, jake and so on) broke or whatever, then he would have come way too fast and there he goes... or whatever
Hehe, they think about the insurance company now, bad nerves !
So I said to myself why dont they start it up and release the park brake until I saw that the front axle was missing. LOL
Sorry bout the truck!
no its not... that can be buffed out in no time
good thing the ground was dry, otherwise they would've been pulling the dozer and the truck up the hill :)
Thats what i was say...its a detroit in that dozer...nice sound!
santa cruz county CA, and the driver's fine, he wasn't in the truck.
hate to see a good logging truck go like that
AT LEAST THE WHEELS ARE POLISHED!!!
should have attached the rope at the most rear axle.... simple physics...
Give the truck some slack, let some cable out, then it wont be trying to lift the front end of the truck off the ground.
must be an lcl driver gone to drive logging trucks in the states,
thats a nice bulldozer =D
first off they should have pulled the dozer ahead when pulling up the truck using the winch... secondly why did they not release the brakes when pulling up hill?
how can the truck go down luckyly it is not a road train
@Emzieroy I guess he didnt do it on purpose......
Tractor verde pequeño pero muy potente!
HOLY SMACK THAT DOZER RULEZ.......
che spettacolo....complimenti
Sure, rescue a truck with a bulldozer. Let's see you do it with a hand winch and a roll of scotch tape. Just kidding. Awesome video.
good ol bullys. will do anything
where's the front wheels gone? vanished? the gear box also gone. i think someone has stole it and brought to the nearest steel factory to be sell. haha
i wonder what part of the ride did the driver think..OHH SHIT!!!!!!
too bad. it looks fairly new..ouch!!!
How unfortunate .. damn nice Lookin log truck! Put er background together and get some logs! :)
that ill buff out
I'm no expert; but, I'd say that wagon was f*cked !
poor pete
I have triple deep 3/4 socket so i can cage the chambers with my cordless impact. that would have helped in this case.
This a wood, removal trees to the industries !
Slightly used Peterbuilt log truck for sale.
karma...in its best form!
IT IS A WINCH!!! LOL
that suckz aslong as the driver was ok,, thats all that matters
este trator tem uma força monstruosa
@Jman955i, im never going to buy a GPS, my dad has one and it always gets us in the wrong place.
they need a d10
Should have brought in a loader. Or got in and released brakes n or take iut of gear. Dont want to bend the truck frame. Could pick it off the ground and drug it up easier. Maybe.
Man, machine !
huston i found the problem
you lost your wheels and thats why you went off the road
lol
what the heck happened
should have used the dozer looks like that truck dont clean trails for shit
Only one thing ....if it was his lorry ...out ...never aloud in a wood agen... or if he was a driver ... P45...😠 hi from ireland ...😉
