I think that it may be easier unloading if you remove the rubber truck mat. The rubberized material creates friction against the unloader mat and is hard to move it.

@fillg Год назад

I was typing a very similar comment when I noticed yours. Those rubber mats are great for preventing things from sliding around your truck bed and the unloader is really counting on stuff sliding easily

@private15 Год назад

Or cover the rubber with something much more slippery? Plastic with water and soap over it? Cut in a shape to cover the corners and maybe more soil will come out. And place a smaller thicker metal rod inside the thin wall rod before it breaks.

@tomkrause62 Год назад

I told him while I was watching him put it together, but he wouldn't listen.

@mikewatson4644 Год назад

If you can't remove the rubber mat, maybe just cover it with cardboard. Anything to make it slide easier. I was trying to tell Sam also, he just wouldn't listen. Or maybe a tarp doubled up underneath the roll up part. The tarp might slide on itself much easier.

@janetkoball44 Год назад

I agree

@toddliston787 Год назад

I have had an unloader for years and never had any problems unloading anything, I’ve had a bed full of concrete and unloaded it with ease. Now when you first start to turn the bar you will have to really push to get it moving but once it starts moving it’s a piece of cake.

@ronaldmartin7892 Год назад

To answer you question regarding the mystery ball. I would suggest it is horse manure. When it was dropped in the streets by the horses that drew the delivery carts when I was a kid in the 1930/40s. We kids in London UK used to call them doughnuts and throw them at each other when playing in the streets. Lovely children.😃 When I worked in Brunei I used to use a small eating place and the waitress asked if I'd like to try a one hundred year old egg. It was in a ball. I tried it. After the meal I asked her what the covering on the egg was. She said "I'll have to ask my Dad, the chef." She came back and said " My Dad says it's horse s***." That is the way they used to preserve the eggs. Not today thank goodness. I like them with pickled ginger. Keep the videos coming. The boys are a great help.

@connienunez2405 Год назад

My Load handler for over 20 years for my grandpa's Chevy Silverado truck 8' foot long bed as well as my Dodge Dakota Club Cab 6' half foot long bed. Working great moving gravel and buckets of sand and concrete blocks as well as the truck are not over loaded over 2 thousands pounds.

@anthonymiller8979 Год назад

I always thought about attaching one of those to the foot of my bed with a motor activated by my alarm clock to be sure I get out of bed in the morning LOL

@tracyball5041 Год назад

@louisesproul8493 Год назад

They are Road apples in Michigan. Since the Amish moved into Chippewa county we have lots of Road Apples now!!! Horse poopy!!

@ellenb8560 Год назад

The tool did very well! I looked it up, and very dry top soil is 1500 lbs up to 3,000 lbs depending on moisture per yard.

@sunkissed5889 Год назад

U guys are so down to earth ! I appreciate that ! ❤❤❤

@robm3063 Год назад

So have one of these that I use for triple ground mulch and sometimes garden mix soil. To me it looks like you have an 8 foot bed so there's a lot of material locking your load in front of the wheel wells. 2 two foot wide pieces of plywood along the sidewall of bed would greatly increase the ease of unloading. I have the same rubber mat in my 07 ext cab Silverado and I haven't had any problems as long as in front of the there is no material. I will say this though. Either the guys at the place I get my mulch are generous or you are getting ripped off because that was a very light looking one yard bucket load.

@charlesbrunner258 Год назад

I have never seen one of these work as advertised, like Angela said is the only way I got them to work

@brendahogue5487 Год назад

May the Lord bless and protect you and your family and gardening

@KenAhlberg Год назад

Just did this today! Put 5 gallon buckets on the edges and had very little issues with soil loss. Just emptied them as needed. Definitely worth the investment.

@TheWoodHaven Год назад

In Utah, we call those Road Apples. Lots of folks ride horses on the streets here.

@briancummings634 Год назад

I had the original Load Handler 20 years ago. It’s basically the same as the HF. I thought of making a plywood bottom with hinges with sides a bit higher then top of the beds. This way the material doesn’t get locked up in the wheel wells. I think be a lot less strain on the cranking shaft. And with hinges it would fold up.

@coolchef09 8 месяцев назад

i seen where a guy put a black iron pipe in the tube and notched it to match the outer tube where the handle goes in. kept his from bending under pressure

@donnaokeefe6463 Год назад

Sam what about changing out that pipe for a piece of black pipe? I’m sure you cam figure out how to do it. Great job

@Andbygrace7024 Год назад

@tammyhall6178 Год назад

We here in Canada call that a road apple. It came out of the north end of a south bound horse. Lol

@GrampyCampy Год назад

Sam I was talking to a man about those and he was telling me if you put a sheet of shiny type vinyl sheet flooring in the bottom of the bed of your truck, them spread that loader sheet out and crank it, it slides so much better, I believe they used to be called loadhandler! Or ez loadhandler I always wanted one! 🏡💒🙏✝️🦌❤️😆🌹

@GrampyCampy Год назад

Vinyl flooring (linoleum type) sheet makes it slide easier when your trying to unload a load!

@bobbennett7195 Год назад

Have fun playing in your boxes.

@PetraBlum258 Год назад

I can see you making some type of side bar at the end, so it will not slide down on the side/

@mikesmith9133 Год назад

I have one of those unloaders I've had for over 3 years I love mine take a 4 x 8 sheet of plywood and split it down the center and lay over your wheel wells that way you don't have the loose getting trapped around your wheels it takes just about all of it out

@TexasBeliever57 Год назад

I was a bit concerned about your tailgate being dented. I would have put my wheelbarrows under each side to catch spillage from sides. Then you only had in front to get up off ground. I am also wondering about how y'all are going to deal with harvesting & support the plants? Those plants should get tall (some). You have my attention. Congrats on the 100K. Looking forward to more great videos.

@ericwalstrand3512 Год назад

It seems if maybe the handle had a gear system and a ratchet to enable one to turn the crank to advance it more and then crank back to the original position. It looks like making a full turn on it would be hard on the back while Stooping over.

@deannaoverstreet4146 Год назад

Thanks Guys!lots of work! God bless your family!

@karencatalano4349 Год назад

@garytemple5157 Год назад

I've had the HF reloader for more than 10 years. The haul is one yard at a time, 2 to 4 yards of garden soil each year, and some were very wet. The bar flexes a lot but it straightens every time. One warning, if dirt gets on the pads, it will scratch the outside paint on the tailgate. Overall, I'm happy with it.

@mikewatson4644 Год назад

Thanks for the long term review.

@jgren4048 Год назад

I refuse to use any other tool than this to unload. Now you need one for the tractor bucket 😂

@robandkampenny181 Год назад

I have the same one. Definitely should remove the rubber mat because the fabric material doesn’t slide very well on rubber. Also, with too much strain the slot where the handle is inserted will can-opener 😂 the first one I had didn’t explode spectacularly like I expected it to

@watahyahknow Год назад

had a suspicion when i saw the setup that the load sitting on top would be too heavy , was even thinking about the clamps damaging the tailgate itself it can work if the fabric is strong enough , if it breaks you could still use straps to atach the "roll" to the tractor or a tree and either drive the pickup out from under it it have the tractor pull the fabric out of the bed , probably will only unload half of wats in the bed to the ground watever happened to the white pickup bed / trailer , couldve used that and kept the truck just about pristene

@cathiebrown8472 Год назад

@sonniecampbell1788 Год назад

100k!!! Congratulations 🎉🎉🎉🎉

@mariowickel456 Год назад

I had 1 of these years ago similar to yours, the mat was much heavier than that model you have, it also had 2 gears to unload . But they make less work for sure

@Newt3700 Год назад

Gotta love China Freight I picked up several horse apples today, we’re just up the road from you In Carter Co. Tn.

@normagomez9660 Год назад

Congrats on 100K!!!🎉🪅🎉🪅👏👏

@desertlivinghomestead3202 Год назад

I love how your open to ideas but I think it's better installing a dump bed on your truck it would be easier and in the long run a dump bed would pay itself off in the first year but hey your idea is not bad if it where covering the sides well God bless and i hope y'all the best every time I see y'all it's gets better

@esmemcgill4570 Год назад

Congrats on the 100k Sam and Angela. You deserve this so much. Hope your channel continues to grow. Hugs from Scotland.

@martinbunn8366 Год назад

I think your bed liner is giving you some resistance

@jimsavage7081 Год назад

Interesting new gadget you got……might want to remove the bed liner and see if that helps with your unloading 😁🤔👊🏻👍

@jerryjenkins322 Год назад

Like the bed set up a horse apple is a clump of horse chit

@irishtinker6867 Год назад

POSSIBLE SOLUTION You need to add some side panels from your truck bed out to the end of the tailgate so it doesn't spell out as much. You could possibly use sheets of plywood on either side and attach it in some way to the tailgate. It might be worth a try.

@Doughboy1824 Год назад

Horse Apple is a manure from horse lol my dad work for A sewage treatment plant and every year he will bring home two truckloads of human manure for the yards. Just say every other day I was cutting the grass. It was amazing whatever it touched it grew and grew. The downfall it stunk.

@cindysmith7304 Год назад

@cameronf1460 Год назад

If the dirt wasn't fighting the wheel wells it'd probably work great

@pmartin6759 Год назад

👍👍👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️love the bloopers😆😆😆😆

@geraldfoon6283 Год назад

2 things to make it work better. 1. Comments about using something between rubber bed liner and fabric are correct. Solution is: Get a 4x8 sheet of dry erase "white board" to put on top of the rubber bed liner and use the white slick side against the unloader cargo mat. 2. Block off or clear the area in front of the wheel wells so material cannot build up in that space in front of the wheel wells which keeps the load from sliding easily.

@davecooper8465 Год назад

I somehow don`t think it was ment for a couple of tons of soil

@HazelBJones-v2r Год назад

Wow, bad idea? Maybe a smaller load?

@tomrausch7014 Год назад

@lechatbotte. Год назад

What a cool idea. I don’t have a truck anymore but anything that helps can’t be all bad. So glad to see the 100k congrats. A horse apple aka poop

@sunhawk61 Год назад

A neighbor of mine got one from Harbor Freight. He replaced that rod with a 1 inch piece of black pipe and cut some plywood skirts for the truck bed to help with the side spillage. Not sure how much use he ever got out of it. Now he just rents a dump bed trailer, so who knows.

@LineRatJLU Год назад

Perhaps a tarp under the unloader that can drape over the sides of truck will help with slick surface to slide plus easier final cleanup of bed to not waste as much material. Thank you for the video.

I remember back when those were an “as seen on tv” item. They were designed to be used with the hard plastic bed liners. They warned that if you had otherwise that you needed a slipper mat of plastic between the bed and the unloader.

@williambirdwell1633 Год назад

congratulations on a hundred k. of subscribers. I think if you take the rubber mats out of the truck when you use your new tool, the rubber mat causes a lot of resistance. Oh by the way, that was just a clump of dirt. when i was a kid we referred them as a road apple. What you were talking about was Horse poop!

@billybubbabaisden783 Год назад

Remove the rubber mat in your truck bed. Slide easier on the metal bed floor.

@mountainnerd1910 Год назад

I have used one of those unloaders on a hard poly (slick) bedliner and it worked much faster. I think friction with the rubber bed mat is part of your challenge. I also added a few pieces of scrap wood at the sides to prevent mulch falling off the sides of the tailgate, and that helped. Your garden beds are going to be awesome!

@rickvaughan8993 Год назад

The instructions state that mats need to be removed before using this.

@PurpleCollarLife Год назад

Very interesting! One of our channel viewers referred us to your video after we just posted a video of unloading a bed full of mulch. Looks like it certainly saves some shoveling for $49!

I am so happy for you all. You are doing such a wonderful job transforming your property into an excellent homestead. I love every video you post. I have a question. Do you happen to know who does the guitar music you played while unloading the dirt? You also played it while Angela was driving the new tractor around. I love the music and would love to know who it was. Thanks 💕

Im pretty sure their music comes from Epic Sound off you tube. Otherwise, they'd get in trouble with YT for copyright infringement. Most YT's get their music from there.
