Moving a broken rock truck

Using a cat 988 wheel loader to move a non running Volvo A25c rock truck.

[@drunkdunc8738]

First time in history someone took a break from towing a rock truck down a mountain to plant spring blooms 😂👍🍻

The poor guy buying a piece of equipment even Andrew has given up on 😂

[@SoleEpiphany]

The cost far outweighs the worth on those things.

Hes making a dump trailer out of it. That will eliminate 99% of the problems Andrew had with it when the front is cut off!

[@erikcourtney1834]

All it needs is an engine rebuild and Andrew wanted to get going so he bought another one.

He's turned into some sort of animal. I'm losing all respect for him, and I'm not sure how much longer I can follow this channel. It's really sad.

[@frankyrennel4837]

It's has been a few years, since Andrew has cut out a spot in his car dashboard with a chainsaw to fit the new Radio. I'm sure that it still works... He's not an animal, from time to time, Andrew switches to Beast-Mode ;) @@TrevorDennis100

Wow! The way you backed that truck onto the trailer - pure skill.

I been saving the half chain links when i cut them and welding them onto stuff. Makes a great spot to lock something with a chain and padlock. I put them on a few of my fence posts in my alley too

[@CerebralAilment]

That's a good idea - those links are like tow hooks lol

[@bradcavanagh3092]

Good to know I'm not the only one who does that!

[@raybame5816]

I recall AC did that a few times when he was building the castle and another when he was fixing a dozer blade.

[@unregisteredcoward]

20 minutes of Andrew dragging something around ... just the thing to start the day👍

Always love a loader that makes a rock truck look small

[@David-de3ed]

I’m still impressed with your videos!!! And your mountain !! Beautiful view!!! And you 🤗🤗and your fur buddies 💜💜!

[@rogerboudreau8496]

Unbelievable ! Using the drone for steering that massive truck on the trailer You are the best !! Bravo ! 🇨🇦🇺🇸

[@johncroboski4836]

Amazing what you can move with a big enough Cat front loader plus learning the secret to getting all the wheels to turn in the same direction. Thought that truck would be a permanent fixture on the mountain. Glad to see it being repurposed.

[@DIRT-BOSS]

That worked out better than I imagined

[@AndrewCamarata]

Yeah, I was going to make a towbar, the chain was less work.

[@karstenwetzlar8304]

Thank you 🙏 for the video. I like to watch it and note with satisfaction that you are doing well! Greetings from Marburg, Germany 🇩🇪.

[@Mmercier942]

At work, when we tow a disable equipement like that, We always put the sling in an X shape. so when we turn a sling is pulling to turn on the right way. Also we plug the steering cylinder in X too so the oil can go to either side of the cylinder and the machine turn better. May be you could put the safety bar, or safety pin in the articulation at the end when loading on the trailer. But after all, you get it done and nothing major happen !

[@texas5020]

That`s the right way to do it. And it`s a good idea to have some air in all the wheels before starting the trip...😉

[@Mmercier942]

And when we tow we always have another equipement with egual or superior weight behing the towed vehicule to help stop or to make sure that the towed vehicule will not be crashing in the front one :P

[@ovlov245]

Great to watch again , love your work young Man! The Professori!

[@mst5632]

That was craaaazy good loading skill getting the hauler onto the lo-boy trailer. It looked easy from the drone view but Andrew’s view was from the ground with an obstructing turned hauler cab obscuring the trailer edges. Awesome job, AC. Another great video!

[@patcb829]

He was using the drone live feed into the cab. The drone is not just for us.

[@beaker-yt]

The trick here was, that he was actually using the live footage from the drone to steer. Nice idea.

[@JcPiam]

I believe Andrew was watching the drone monitor in his loader to help him get the truck straight on the trailer.

[@janking2762]

Whatever, I’m pretty impressed!

[@sar4043]

That cat 988 is a great machine to have on a personal property. Not many people get to run their own machines like that only for their use.

[@debcamp2359]

Dude! U were on the brink ! An articulated loader steering an articulated truck. 💥

[@faustwatsche]

I am mostly impressed that you steered a behemoth pulling a behemoth and steered the drone at the same time 😂

[@tgh117]

Got the job done perfectly, without really hurting anything at all. I'd say that was a win for sure, and spot on loading it onto the trailer to get it on its way.

[@michaelwpaulin4876]

That was ‘friggin’ awesome. Andrew. That front end loader is a beast for sure,,

[@chrisoakey9841]

You need to buy or make an adjustable a frame for all your tiwing needs. They are quite simple, but very useful. A few metal pipes inside more metal pipes. A bunch of through holes and some heavy bolts, and a few eyelets, and safe towing fir almost anything.

[@AndrewCamarata]

I almost did for this.

@@dave.of.the.forrest True, but, Andrew has proven he can make anything he needs. Mans an absolute unit

[@felixchaus]

@@AndrewCamarata You should make one When going up the mountain pulling a running vehicle it would make it much more safer, if the vehicle fells of the mountain, it's going to pull the machine towing it down, but If you manage to eliminate the falling of the road, since it follows the direct path of the machine/vehicle pulling it. Also you should look for a tracked trailer for the dosers, big enough for a pickup truck, but small enough for your tracked dumptruck

To the whiners and crybabies - Moving this truck involved calculated risks based upon experience and knowledge. When working alone a person must be aware, cautious, ambitious, experienced, capable, skilled, and confident. Also, a person must have the desire to accomplish a task or achieve a goal. And yes, sometimes things can go wrong. It is important to watch carefully and adjust as needed. This video is an illustration of applied physics. You critics so easily complain about Andrew’s methods. I ask you this - Do you have 1.3 million people watching you work and play? Great job Andrew!
