And doing that would have doubled the rating of these tie downs should you have needed it.

@@billsimmons7754 no it would have stayed the same. You only get 1/2 the securement if you go from one point down to the trailer. You get the full wll if you go all the way across the trailer.

"if something comes lose you only lose" Do you know, not no, the difference between LOOSE and lose?

@@armybeef68 or it was a mistake.. Can't all be perfect..🖕

@@armybeef68 Thank GOD you are here to police grammar of people trying to be helpful(without being a jerk). I can only imagine the horrors that might have ensued had you not been here.

I agree with this comment. I always try and make sure I have no twist in my chains so the load exerted on the chain is not in more than one direction.

So you are one of those people who are leaving trash all over the country that I have to dodge or end up running over and about crashing because you don't see it in time to dodge it while you're in traffic, as that's what happens when you put pieces of carpet in between your crossed chains they get cut in half and fall out or just vibrate out, but either way you create a hazard to me and my loved ones, and I will inform the DOT any time I see that, the friction between the crossed chains causes minimal wear to the chains and I have helped move oil rigs thousands of times and miles! Remember that you are not the only person or group of people who make a living using the roads who also use them for general transportation and recreation!

@@larryburnell7913 Lmao no ones gonna read ur story

Always had extra carpet laying around just for this!

@@devonwoodman3350 I read 4 or 5 lines.

Atleast you had a 318. I started out in an International Cabover 36" sleeper 6-71 Detroit (what was that a 220 hp) non aspirated and a 13 speed, no Jake's and 3-9 trailer, usually carrying around 75,000 lbs of steel. 1st load out of the mill I was on the tollroad and going up the steepest incline, a trooper pulls me over and asks, " Why are you going so slow?" Mind you this is less then half way up and now on the shoulder. I looked at him and said You pulled me over just to ask that! I'll tell you what you jump in the drivers seat, and show me how to do it and I'll drive your squad to the top! I can't believe you did this, I was going 29 mph and now I'm sitting on the shoulder you sure didn't think on this did you? He turned around, walked to his squad, got in and drove off! That's when I learned some of these guys are not the brightest bulb on the tree!

@@birdmandan7077 I can't imagine how long it took you to get back up to speed (assuming you even did get back to 29mph lol) I've been thinking about getting into trucking but looking at all the problems that can (and likely will) come with the job is making me back out. Seems like a fun job! (the driving part atleast, seeing the country and all) I struggle getting my manual civic up a hill from a stop without stalling it, 75000lbs of steel and only 220hp... that's hell.

I'd add a mud flap works well for this too and they are free all over every truck stop and warehouse 😂🤣😂

theres alot of chains on this thing hahaha

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Loved this!! Great advice definitely will help me

It was a great idea. An he'll get it back at the end of the year anyways.

unless there is an exhaust leak before the turbo no amount of air flowing past the exhaust stack will spin the turbo ,,what will happen however especially with a rearward pointed exhaust stack is water and debris in the exhaust ,,,however most of these fire trucks i have seen have a rain flap on top of the vertical stack

It wouldn't be enough air to spin the turbo fast enough that the residual oil can't handle

@@unathandavis I have seen several turbos have to get rebuilt because of being spun and no oil pressure it doesn't take much to burn up the bearings in a turbo

@@stevesmith1158 nope the exhaust system is closed and can't turn turbo fast enough the air would have to travel through the engine to be a factor. Thats why nobody worries about a wind storm turning a turbo.

Are you serious right now..?

I’ll be willing to bet the company planned on taking a few planes through that path and it had to make huge financial sense to redo a road 😂 That’s wild! Cool memory to have ✊🏾

How doing scale 90.000 with that set up

@@billmurphy4487 You balance it out the best you can and get an overweight permit. Then they go off of the max manufacturer weight that your axles and tires are rated for.

I know that but u can not get one for that weight. On a 5 alex

@@billmurphy4487 I don't know unless his tires are rated for an extra 10,000 lb for the whole setup I'm not sure. His trailer tires did look bigger than normal though.

yes sir its when people get too comfortable they get hurt...

I agree now that I’ve gotten older, we ran stinger car haulers to the Nashville sale 3-4 times a week, our 379 with a tuned 600 Cat climbed it at 80-90mph (when it was all clear), came down the Chattanooga side about as fast. Looking back, it was silly and irresponsible but the truck took it with ease.

Looks like there was a little space between them but you’re right they’ll find the smallest things and fine you for them

Darius Boykin the front 2 looked like they was but I am watching on a small phone lol

Mine belting pieces work great 8x8” to 12x12” pieces Recap tread works wonderfully, too

P A Leggett I always used some old fire hose I use to get it from our local fire department

Wow

Also keeps the turbo from spinning dry and burning the bearing out on long hauls

@@daccuscape9729 good idea!

I always tape them up then put a rag over it and then tape the rage down. If you ain’t careful most times bags rip. I use a red heat shrink tape and it doesn’t come over easy

Who are u referring to there bob I only see people applauding him for covering th exhaust bc the turbo or something

Fkin right man. Half these pricks probably never been in anything bigger than a f350

He ask people for advice. Get off his nuts bob.

First off Tim asked for for advice from people that have experience. pulling oversized heavy equipment loads... nobody's telling Tim how to do anyting ....for example you always cover the exhaust because the wind going down through the exhaust can turn the turbo and burn it up because it doesn't have any oil pumping to it ... it'll also can get rain and road debris in the exhaust so it's best to cover them. Also you want to fold the mirrors in because you're already oversized and they stick out a considerable amount .... not to mention you want to secure every door because you don't want the wind catching it and ripping it off. You also want to check that stuff every time you stopped because assholes will come and open the door without you knowing ...

@@stevesmith1158 evidently you didn’t read all of the comments, some were quite petty, and I’m sure that I wasn’t talking about you. Relax Francis.

Alyn you are so correct!! So many people do it tho! When actually it can pull the load off the trailer

@@joshuawilliams3831 you really think so?

@@georgetoma7139 It is 100% true. If you have a 6ft chain crossing to the opposite side of the load, and you lose one of the corners, the load has the potential to shift away from the broken corner up to 12ft until the intact chain will interact with the load again. If you have 3ft chains on the corners, the load only has the potential of sliding away from a broken corner 6ft before the chain interacts with the load again. Also, on the opposite END of the load from the broken corner, crossed chains will not assist in retaining the load. The load can rotate on the intersection point of the crossed chains becoming completely useless in keeping the load safe.

Yeah, losing 1 chain in a cross tie front and and back is enough to lose the entire load if it shifts. Someone did a great demonstration video here on RU-vid with a toy trailer setup.

The motor has a PDI manifold and turbo that's what does it

Apples vs. oranges

Cool comment

A scania v8 is probably the only truck in Britain that sounds nice and meaty but America have the nicest looking 👌

Will Curtis. In Northern Europe, we have 50 000 kg as normal with 60 000 kg total on lumbertrucks. Most of the lumbertrucks have 750 hp pluss.

Sitting here thinking exact same ... Looks cool, sounds cool ... oversized, heavy haul?? ... Where im from, 9/10 semi hauls are 120.000lb+ to be efficient enough to make money. 14 feet is standard hight for everything, and nothing oversized within 10 inches over each side and theres no drama in either power, torque, brakes or going up and down slopes or anything getting hot doing it. It would be some pretty boring videos if we went out and fit go-pros to every second load going around.

That's what is was thinking and they fig each tie down by the lower rating of the two (ex. Boomer rated at 7000 chain rated at 10,000 it's ony worth 7000lb on that tie down)

At least match the weight

Additionally if you run a single chain link he did on the rear of the trailer from the trailer to a central point on the load and back down to the trailer cuts the load rating of the chain in half because 1 chain is being used as two hold down points if you follow what I am saying. However if you have a long single chain going from the trailer to a binder to your load on one side of the trailer and then were to have slack chain the hooking to a binder that is hooked to the load on then to the other side of the trailer then load valve of the chain is 100% of its rating because in reality you are using two separate chains that just happened to be connected together in the middle Additionally crossing chains like he did on the front of the trailer is a bad idea because if one of those chains were to break it the other chain would be in effect pulling the load across the trailer, it is a much better practice to secure your load with chains/straps pulling in a straight line on each side of the load. I personally used to always cross my chains until I went to a training seminar on load securement and the instructor covered that subject in great detail and had scale model of a trailer and demonstrated proper and improper methods of load securement. Anyway he put a sheet of teflon on the deck of his model trailer to simulate a slick/icy trailer deck and crossed his “chains” and tightened them evenly and the cut one chain and every time the load on the trailer pulled to the side of the trailer that intact chain was pulling towards.

There is more than enough air pushing back though muffler to spin a turbo. Don’t believe me get a modern muffler and take an blow gun and blow backwards through the muffler and then get a turbo and set it on a bench with anemometer in front of it and then hook a blow gun up with an air pressure regulator on it and see how little wind speed it take to windmill a turbo and you will be surprised. Personally I like to place a cover the exhaust and air intake when towing a vehicle because an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure as the old saying goes.

@@gullreefclub the engine on the other side is a deadhead.

@@gullreefclub the fact you mentioned setting the turbo on a bench in a completely open environment proves to me you missed the point of my comment. Not to mention I was specifically talking about this application tim is hauling. Im aware how easily a turbo spins when there's zero restrictions, but that's not the case here. In this case there's a full exhaust system, full intake system, intercooler and engine all connected to it making it much less likely to spin by itself. I never said it can't happen, just that it's not really an issue in this particular application. It's not like I'm over here saying it's never an issue and you never need to take special precautions with turbo equipped vehicles. All I was getting at is it's more of a (but not specific to) performance application type precaution.

Also I guess someone should go tell the major auto manufacturers that have turbo applications(trucks, suvs, cars etc) considering none of them cover the intakes and/or exhaust for OTR shipping.

It would but the load is not that wide its just high,in the video when he shows the side view mirrors you will see

It don’t work that way bud. 99% of the places can really ruin your life real quick. And you can loose the load.. never assume and never use the it’s better too ask forgiveness then permission. Definitely when you don’t know what kinda location you’re at and what they do. Some places you can be federally charged. And those places they don’t give too craps about forgiveness. If you have ever done any federal transporting you would know this. So Tim be careful listening too this kinda stuff. No need too get in trouble over something simple as filming wait until you’re off the property and do you’re thing

@@triplehfarmsllc7348 he’s not a company driver, he can not be federally charged for filming anywhere, this isn’t North Korea, he’s fine to exactly what I said some people think bc they don’t wanna be on camera it’s a crime for them to film, and that’s not how the world works bud, but it’s funny to laugh at the fact you think you can be federally charged lol I could understand if it’s a nuclear plant you’re entering but it’s not it’s a drop lot that he’s already filmed in one time with no problems, bet you drive 10 mph under the speed limit cause you can be charged too huh?

@@mikehoncho658 🤣 It doesn’t make 2 shits if your a company owner or driver bud. And I promise you if a company or government facility tells you that you can’t film. You will be charged. It doesn’t have shit too do with your liberal bs. You got a lot too learn sunshine. You can do whatever you want like you think on property. It’s kinda like a railroad you can be federally charge. I know 17 place right off hand if you so much as take a picture you’re done.. 1 of those places that cover windows and have a guy ride on the side of the truck and guard inside the truck that tell you where too go. Once unloaded take you out and let you leave. I’ve done government and high up private work for 6 years. After getting out of the military. And the same guy that help stop bruce. I know a lot more then you would care too believe. Hell if you don’t believe me ask Tim too ask Bruce for ya 😂 I can be a sob to deal with definitely in the transportation world in the us

@@triplehfarmsllc7348 I’m a def hard core republican, and also have been in law enforcement for years and my step dad has owned a trucking company for years that pulls out of NC specifically around nuclear power plants, you can not and will not be charged for anything you said, that’s the truth of it man, you can not like it all you want but it’s a 1st amendment right and living and working for a county that has a nuclear power plant I have to know this specific and it’s not against the law to take pictures of anything you see in public or record it, if you enter a facility that is gov protected they can ask that you not record however they are required by law to have that posted long before you enter that said facility, he would have been completely fine and like I said he’s recorded before and it won’t a problem, idc who you think you know it doesn’t make you right bc you aren’t, most likely the guy didn’t wanna be filmed in case he messed up, it’s better for insurance and the report to have any load recorded if you can while it’s being loaded, if he did exactly what I said he would be fine and get some good extra footage as well, if Tim lived life being cautious of everything like you say he wouldn’t be the person he is, and prob wouldn’t be as popular as he is, stop being one of those people

@@mikehoncho658 believe what ya want brother. Just giving you advice and anyone else. Private property and being in public are 2 total different things. Just as you can do government work on property not owned by the public.. I’ll give you a example timken they make bearings everything is pretty hush hush even for their workings no pictures no videos and can’t even say what is being hauled or made at some of the plants. Being they have a government contract and build parts for the government. Things are secret for a reason. And way above your pay level as police officer brother. But again you know public right clearly not private property and the does and donts on a strictly enforced restricted area. It goes for plants as Google Tesla many other places. And I’m a far right Republican myself but their are places you can and can’t do things. I kinda feel like if I was speaking too you on the phone you feel you have a right to record the call 😂 and ya down. But good luck with videoing and doing whatever you think you can. Unfortunately it won’t work everywhere. And Tim being respectful and asking is the smart thing. No one likes a privileged dickhead. And that comes from someone that supports leo and has donated tons of money too local departments in Nc possibly even the county or city you live in. Being I live in NC

The shitty thing is they have done it before. Any they keep doing it because people keep buying the tickets and boxes and crap. Unfortunately they wont go out of business as they have like 20 companies and will just start using a different name.
