That would be epic

That’s awesome and I’m not just saying that good for you

And to think it a job! Playing with big cats.I could dig it!

Very true, not only guys like this kind of thing. Was raised with 3 brothers. Was always getting greasy helping work on cars growing up.

You sound like an awesome lady!

I love these videos

this comments underrated i never thought of that that’s exactly the stuff that we imagined when we were kids!

I am trying to keep up on the job's you are doing I Warr helping me recover from brain tumor surgery

Me too.

How long does it take to chew through a steel plate with all that weight on it?

That would destroy the road

Not worth carrying it most the time but I feel you the idea is solid if you have it on hand.. but with a D8 you don't even need it lol

They drag it across pavement and they use it for a long time before they make another one.

We do the same thing in the Mine where I work. We put the broken/dead mashines (up to 100 metric tons) on steelplates to drag them to the repair places.

I bet they used the D8 to clean it up.

@@rcairforceone grading a road is more complicated than pulling a blade over it. I think he underestimated how much trouble it is to get the road right.

Are you guys hiring?

Yeah they pretty much just shit Canned that road as soon as it rains its over you cant just smooth out loose soil with a d8 and call it good It won't hold up.

Exactly my thought. Would've been way easier.

Would've been a hell of an expensive sled though 😳

@@Jutilaje For real. I'm thinking people suggesting that haven't actually looked into what a plate of steel like that costs. Let alone what it weighs, and what a logistical nightmare it would be to get it in and out of there. Makes way more sense to just make an extra trip back up with a dozer to blade the ruts back out of the road.

I would have dragged the dozer out sideways. Lift the leading edge about a foot and it would grade the road for you and you wouldn’t have 20 steel ribs on the bottom of the treads fighting you. Tracked vehicles like that have very little side bite and you could see as they pulled it out it kept wanting to turn sideways

@@austinmabry8462 well as an oilfield welder, I am familiar with steel prices. I am also familiar with the equipment rental and labor prices. Not to mention the headache of prolonged dealings with federal agencies.

This is how its done world wide, America moved away from that and hired contractors to do it

Lol ok

That’s just Utah for you. One of the last states in America that helps their neighbors as family.

@@one.2622 Can

@@Bacardi6111 I'd like to think that's just rural America for you. I lend what I have or help when I can. A lot of people and farmers in this area do the same. I love it when people come together to make something happen. It doesn't happen enough these days.

Limited equipment? They came out with tons of shit.

@@ryanturner3432 Lol. So true. "Yeah, and then we had this random neighbor show up and tell us that we can borrow his D8!" I love these guys, but to say that they have access to minimal equipment is a little bit of a stretch.

So was my Dad, he also passed away in 2004, he would have loved this site. I do, it brings back so many memories. My favorite was mining crew had been layed off for winter and left for warmer places. He was on salary year around with another man to maintain buildings and equipment. He was doing maintenance on the Cat, and with no one around, let my sister and I drive it around and showed us how to make it spin with the tracks making neat circles in the snow! It was so exciting.

Similar here. My dad died young, but years ago, when I was living in rural Australia and a retired guy who lived a few farms over, so he was a "neighbour" from 20 km/ 12 miles away. Before he'd retired he'd been a truck driver of "low loaders" those extra huge low bed trailers that carried all sorts of mining equipment, including those 140 tonne dump trucks etc. Running from Perth, the State Capital of Western Australia and running to the North West of the state, about 1,600 kms / 1,000 miles. That's so far North in Australia that you can hear Indonesian CB radio coming into your car mounted CB ! Because he was driving oversize loads, even with escort vehicles they were only allowed to drive during the daylight hours, just when the heat was worst, for the humans, often in non-air-conditioned trucks and the tyres which failed often on the blistering hot roads. "Ken" was his name, a great old guy, and he would love to sit around talking trucks, tractors, equipment and such. By the time I met him, he'd already been retired for a few years. A lovely guy. He's been gone over 10 years now, but not forgotten. In retirement he drove a 4wd ute (US= pickup) and man could he back a trailer. I had him deliver to me some straw bales etc. When I commented he said about "a lifetime driving double-articulateds". xx

Working smarter not harder isn’t good content

I dont think 1/4 plate will do it.

@@joeprewitt2539 It would do it easily. It's all about lb/sq in. It would pull 10x easier that pulling tracks..

My Grandpa had a stone boat, used for moving all sorts of heavy items which/that wouldn't get moved without major eqpt. It was just inches high, stout wood with chain for towing.

Yea soooooo, 1" or 1.5" plate would work perfectly. If you could put the end of it in a brake and bend 2 foot 45 degrees. It would work even better. Don't forget to weld tow rings on it, or cut tow eyes in it. (Ret. Operating Engineer, 38 years)

Way too much money and labor to restore that dozer. You could buy a working dozer for a lot less than it would cost to restore that one. At this point it’s just scrap steel, which is real cheap. It’s not sold by the pound. Steel is bought and sold by the ton. If it’s not usable it’s not worth much.

They also attached the 5 ton axle to the small excavator. The winch on the back is attached to the frame, you want to attach to the frame, preferably the same leg of the frame to prevent warping but you sure as hell don't want to attach to the axle.

@@glenwaldrop8166 Or even better to the winch mounting!

@@martingardener90 Exactly.

But, none of that is as exciting as busting cables...gotta get clicks and subs somehow.

Yeah. They said they were leaving at the end of the video and the old blade was loaded and you can still see the deep ruts...Pretty confident they just left. I'm sure the neighbor took care of it, but still a bummer.

@@JustinLCecil way to just assume shxt 🤡

I was screaming "What are you doing to the road!" last video, and thought it would be soft and unstable after this.But I kinda remember they do run a grader over dirt roads from time to time, so I dunno?

@@basstrammel1322 a grader doesn't break the cap of the road which is what the stuck tracks did, even after they level this out those track marks are just going to sink below the cap and be ruts.

I pretty sure that's scrap
