A few months ago I went up to ‪@zackliftinternational4841‬ In Cle Elum Washington to tour their facility, and look at one of their 30 ton Genesis heavy wrecker units. I was very impressed with the build quality, as well as the design and capabilities of the Genesis, and after a deal was struck, I went to work finding a ‪@SeriousTrucks‬ truck to run it on, and a trailer to complete the package. The guys at Zacklift recently completed my unit, and I headed up for the install. This thing is a work of art! The guys way Zacklift take a lot of pride in what they build, and the quality of their work definitely does not go unnoticed! The install is a fairly simple process and they got it done pretty quick, then we had a little fun doing a photo and video shoot with both of our trucks. After that, I headed back home with my new heavy wrecker so I can put it to work!

Well here we go again. That 30 ton is NOT considered in the towing world as a heavy wrecker. that is a meaduime wrecker. Nice try to bs everybody Casey. Let me know when you want to come play with the big boys try a 50 ton stick boom or rotator or come take a look at my 100 ton rotator maybe ill bring it to the cleaveland tow expo. bring your 30 ton and ill pick it up and stand it on its nose.

The irony of talking about companies having shops work on their trucks that don’t fix things was not lost on waving your hand in front of the rollback.

Casey This is one of my all time favorite videos. Many KZbinrs would be pissed by early negative comments. Knowing you from here and seeing your face as you told the story, I knew it amused you but made you even more excited. The whole scenario made my day. Zacklift teaming up with you shows anyone who follows your channel, Zacklift is in the ball in perceiving character and did their due diligence checking out your channel and you. It increases their credibility with anyone who knows you from KZbin and I'm certain real life. It's a match made in heaven. ( I just want to say at this point, nobody buys the "I don't know what I'm doing" BS, it's entertaining, I'll buy "I haven't done this before" but the other.....nah. Just sayin) Anyway, this the "awesomest" video. Has my brain churning on some stuff I may get around to emailing you about. THANKS FOR THIS ADVENTURE!!

Casey, I am certainly impressed with the Zacklift models and their quality control. I see why you would choose them and I am not even a tow truck driver. What worries me is that now you might do more heavy lifting videos and I really enjoy the recovery videos where you go help out normal people who have gotten into situations where they are stuck by adverse conditions or through deficiencies in Google Maps or their own lack of forethought, sometimes in somewhat dangerous conditions. The humanity you demonstrate when you help people without charge, sometimes getting muddy or covered with cold snow, warms my heart and is a big part of the reason that I have wanted to watch all your videos (well, perhaps not the shorts :). Coupled with the good works you do for society of your public land cleanups and brutally honest product reviews you set a stellar example for us all. At the same time I realize you have to make a living and help support your family and I'm sure the new wrecker equipment will help you to do that. I'll keep watching because you explain well what you are doing and I enjoy seeing the scenery in a part of Oregon where I've never visited. Best of luck in the future.

Michael, are you the guy in Lebanon, Ohio that goes by Case Towing? If so, you have a Flat bed, a Medium Tow, and a 50 T. You don't have a 100 Ton Wrecker. Oh, and a 30 ton wrecker IS considered a heavy wrecker. The 100 ton rotator is the Century M100 made by Miller. I know of no other manufacturer and at 2.25 million dollars there are only a few of them.

I’m a huge fan of the versatility of that unit, can’t wait to see it putting in work for you. Sure it’s probably not the same as a 50 ton wrecker but damn it sure can do what a regular wrecker can’t do as well.

Way cool! Nice you see you back into Heavy like the name of your company--looking forward to seeing the Zacklift in real use. I hope you keep as busy as you need to be and that this can be profitable for you. It looks like you have room to put your headache rack back on--are you thinking about it, or going to do something else with that space? (And your backup skills are unsurpassed!) Thanks for all the great content.

being specific is a good thing you are a one man show. too many irons in the fire gets nothing done. Not. too many people plan career business , you have im new to the channel and i feel like i walked into the middle of movie and finally getting caught up. there will always be negative people out there saying my truck is bigger than yours. hey to them who cares! plenty of worms and plenty of fish continue to do good and be there to help great plan

I don't think I'm quite as excited as you are, not knowing anything about trucks and towing except what I have learned from your channel, but I can see why you are excited. You obviously put a lot of thought into that set up and the quality of the Zacklift looks top notch. Enjoy every moment of using it. Congratulations on getting to a point where you could add it to your operation.

I always wondered why you bought a long truck like that. I kind of expected you to shorten it. Very clever! It all makes sense now. That is some very creative thinking. You are definitely getting the most out of your truck. While 30 ton isn't huge, it is very capable and will allow you to do a lot. I'm sure that will meet your needs quite nicely.

Thanks for the fun adventure, Casey! I've enjoyed the little journey and playful story you've been telling as you go along. It's always worth it to wait for the end of the story because you tie it together well! Looking forward to seeing it put to work!

Always park something very heavy in front of it when it is off. always. hooks quick means easy to steal. Love that unit. I have built many crude ones in the past yet that one is the best I have seen. No better person to show how it works than you for sure. You are blessed.

It all makes sense now! 😁 I like how compact it is when all folded up. Definitely a quality product with attention to detail. I like how they've called the boom addition Genesis as they expand or have a new beginning of the product line. Guess we'll have to wait till next week to see it in action other than slinging your trailer in your yard! Great video and explanation Zacklift couldn't have picked a better spokesman/collaboration to get the word out!

Casey, I appreciate this video so much. I learned so much about towing, tow trucks and the ZackLift from you. How about a little red wrap on the cab to tie it all together? Bravo!

With those tie back points at the rear you could tow recover sideways in either direction using a pulley. Nice system because it allows the vehicle to be versatile. A permanent wrecker configuration only allows for towing only.

That's an impressive heavy-capable rig on the back of your truck. Look forward to seeing in in use. Wondering if you're still going to be doing the small-scale trail rescues from snow and mud without the roll-back to transport the tracked jeep and other vehicles to the site?

That's quite the impressive recovery/tow unit! The only modification I would add and can still be done is to spray box liner in those bright red storage boxes. Yah I'm OCD like that lol! It would kill me to see them scratched up after a month of the accessories bouncing/sliding around in there. Looking forward to seeing this go to work!

Well, Casey, I now understand your thinking on the subject and the course you are taking. As a 30 year light and medium-tow truck driver, I am partial to the light off-road wrecker and the rollback, and I would be sad to see the rollback go, but now I understand the plan. Thumbs up!
First Wreck for the new Wrecker!
