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.

Back in the late 1970s, after an out of town parade, we (Indio High Rajah marching band) had to push start a school bus. About 15 guys pushed it, only a few feet, and driver popped the clutch.

So if a bus needs to be towed. Depends on where your at busy road you need Police assitance and a backup bus that to help secure a lane to shutdown while the transfer of the kids happen. Once everything and everyone is transfered then while police are on scene is hook up and prepair to tow that would be the ideal method. you can also use the stop sign on the school bus to stop traffic but that to not always a smart move because people wont care and run the stop sign.

Trent when Darl returns he still can do boosts and lock outs for the first 3 months after surgery he then can do light duty stuff from 6 months to a year then he can return to heavy duty stuff and what I have stated gets the muscle memory back and aqua therapy along with the physiotherapy gets the range of motion and inflammation down way faster along with ice pack therapy a couple times a day

Instead of removing the drive shaft couldn’t you remove the half shaft from the axles a bit more messy but easier
@plazatowing
@plazatowing 3 месяца назад
Ehhh I disagree. Axles are much harder to take out and if you run into cone washers which are common on Volvos then forget about it. Thank you for watching

@jackschissler255
@jackschissler255 3 месяца назад
Yes the newer buses from the past 10 yrs or so, You must push the brake pedal in order to release the parking brake, it’s some safety rule now. Not sure how the new Inteli-Park system works (It eliminates the parking brake knob) and makes it an electronic gizmo now.

They just send another bus to pick the kids up then you tow the broke down bus to get fixed Towed multiple buses when I worked in towing and recovery Always liked when kids record the operation, or if they’re outside waiting for the other bus to get them, I had some guys come up and talk to me (older boys in middle through high school) they compliment the truck, they’d be impressed on the operation and happy to watch. Good times Easy tows

5.72 miles to a gallon isn't too bad considering the load and the lengthly idling. With 65 gallons filled, I'm assuming your truck holds 100 gallon tank? Thanks for the video.

Question. When you tap into the Trucks Air system (you tapped into his Air Compressor). Now will his Air Dryer still purge? I know the Air Dryer is connected between Compressor and Air Tank so are you filling up the trucks Air Tank or bypassing it?

@LilyandOllieTv
@LilyandOllieTv 3 месяца назад
28:06 but it's not federally approved and if you get pulled over on an inspection and they see that good Lord Almighty you're looking at almost a $20,000 fine charges up the ass like you will never believe so my advice stay with the chains it's not worth it because they say that those straps are not capable of holding back the weight of a rig that size on a platform the way you're doing it and they don't have the tensile strength is what they say to support a load

So=--quick question here-Trent.. can see you guys worked the original accident and brought it to your yard. Now the load is gone on--how do you guys 'end' up w/ the trailer// PAM is a nationwide company-do they just give it to you in leau of towing/storage? I know how it works-but a lot of readers don't understand the procedure--and most states are different. Thank y0ou!
