In today's video Trent Jr and Mark respond to the local truck stop to assist a customer who somehow drove his fully loaded trailer on top of a pole consequently ripping out multiple cross members out of the belly of the trailer and damaging an axle. We were tasked with lifting the trailer off the pole allowing the customer to park the trailer

Q:What camera do you use?
A: I use the Go Pro Hero 7 Black Edition primarily. Often times you will see auxillary cameras in use. Those cameras include The Go Pro Hero 6, Hero, and DJI Mavic Pro Platinum
Q: How big Is your rotator?
A: It is a 50 ton Miller Industries Vulcan 950
Q: Does the carriage slide back like Ron Pratt's?
A: No, the carriage doesn't slide back due to strict weight laws in California. The sliding carriage will make the truck to heavy in CA
Q: Why do you only have 3 winches on the rotator?
A: Comes down to weight again as stated above
Q: How many trucks Does Plaza Towing have?
A: Currently more than 30
Q: Why must the driveshaft be removed to tow a vehicle?
A: When vehicles are not running the transmission is not receiving circulating lubricant. If the driveshaft is left installed, the transmission, which is not receiving lubricant, is still spinning. This allows it to get very hot which eventually will cause major damage to the transmission. Therefore, removing the driveshaft completely eliminates the transmission from spinning. Simply leaving it in neutral is not sufficient since the transmission still spins in neutral.

@MrMopar413 3 года назад

I guess I’m not the only one that’s done that. I pulled a 53Ft trailer up on to one of those polls at the US Post Office facility in Tacoma, Washington. I ripped out my trailer brake lines and 10 cross members but stopped right before hitting the trailer tandems axle assembly. Luckily for me that was my last stop of the day with only 3 pallets to offload. Also I’m a diesel mechanic and I was able to cage out the trailer brakes and zip tie up the brake lines and back off the poll then use a hand pallet Jack to off load the 3 remaining pallets and drive back to Portland, Oregon my home base without being spotted by the Washington State highway Patrol. I Disconted my trailer airlines and drove back just using my tractor brakes. It was a 7,500.00 bill to repair the trailer. I hate those polls , they need to make them about 1 Ft higher so this stuff doesn’t happen. It’s so easy to pull a trailer up on them🤪🤪🤪🤪👍

@Dan_Neely 3 года назад

Was the trailer riding low, or was the post installed a bit too high? The top of the post was clearly designed as a breakaway; and an extra inch or two of clearance between the top of the fixed part and the trailer would've kept the post from ripping the frame apart like that. Axle would still have been wrecked, and depending on how it twisted loose might've still totaled the trailer, but without the destruction of the frame like that the trailer itself would be a lot less sketchy to move around.
