We finally have a way to move equipment! This is exciting - looks to be a great, versatile trailer and will open up some doors for us. Follow along as we buy the CHEAPEST tri axle, 21k GVRW deck over trailer we can find and get it ready to use! Also, enjoy some footage of our truck. This truck has been in my family for over 20 years and I just put it through a full restoration. It is a 1994.5 Ford 7.3 Powerstroke with the manual transmission, ZF5. It passed the tow test pretty well!! Tune in next time as we go through the Case 450B Dozer and get it some work.

Just be aware that the wheels and tires you bought were "mobile home only". noted by the "mh" in the tire size on the side wall. they are basically a one time use tire. not intended for "trailer service". many people run them for years without any issues at all. however, if you would run them on a commercial vehicle you would likely put out of service. the hubless center wheels use to very popular on equipment trailers. the overall diameter made them attractive as it could be a low deck. very nice common sense approach with emphasis on safety. i really enjoyed this entire video. well done. i may be wrong but i believe the dozer needs a chain over the blade.

you should run all the wires through conduit that goes through the frame rails. this way they are protected from both chassis abrasion and road debris impacts. also a small battery with some sacrificial zinc would be a good investment. or a big battery, winch and zinc.

Hey. Just a tip from someone who has used at least ten thousand of the 3-m marine connectors. If you are splicing two wires into one end. While the glue is still hot take you cutters and crimp in between the wires in-line with them. Just do it gently. It separates the wires and let’s the glue get all the way around them. Keeps the water out.

I was hoping as part of the dozer test drive you were going to visit a vehicle scale. I would (rough) guess that the dozer/trailer combination weighs 14-15K, rather than the 12K you guesstimated. Nice job getting the trailer back on the road. It's enjoyable to see guys like you refurbish old, but still viable equipment.

From watching C&C Equipments channel you need another chain holding the blade to the deck as well as the 4 you applied. I also didn't see any shrink tube over the wire connectors to keep the moisture out of the copper wires. If you used the pointy crimper you could have punctured the insulator.

When cutting your hinge, go up 4 inches on the back cut and it will leave a notch that will keep the bottom of the trunk connected to the tree base while it goes down and prevent it from being able to slide backwards and get you. One simple change and you get a lot more predictable felling of your tree.

You could put the chains to the upper idler for the track on the dozer. Thats how we haul big excavators and stuff on lowboys. Guys i worked with say not to hook to track pads. And just hook one end of chain directly to stake pocket and other end to machine. Then binder to take up slack in the middle, none of that wrapping around chains. Always remember to attach chains in a way that even if chain came loose the hooks will not fall off.

Mobile home axles are #6500 GWR and have had the spindles bend on me. The wedge's will loosen up with heavy weight so, keep them tight until you put better axles on the trailer. I delivered mobile home for 45 year's and you will have problem's sooner than later. The tire are junk even at 12 ply and can't tell you how many blowout's even new delivery from the factory.

Words to the wise. Should have ran all your wiring through conduit. It's a cheap insurance . Never have to worry about debris or a branch from a tree catching your wiring.. Another idea is to check on new axles and springs. You can get the whole package then you'll have everything all new everything back there. But anyhow it looks great. They might not hassel you about this but a trailer like that needs reflective tape down the sides.. If you were to use it alot. It needs to be inspected.

Why would you not cross chains? In the marine corps one of the biggest things i learned during equipment movements. is Cross the chains when you're dogging down equipment. Seen a tank get dogged down on a ship and slide about 2 feet when the ship listed hard. its chains were not crossed. we cross chains when dogging down Amphibious assault vehicles on trailers. its good enough to keep a very high very heavy load on the trailer in rough terrain we also Cross the chains on equipment in aircraft and on Rail heads (loaded onto train cars) if crossing chains is bad give a good reason its bad its better load securement. it is better at keeping the load centered. and isn't as awkward tying down. i think the chain it to the closest point when it comes to equipment is just a old trucker myth because fat or lazy to cross the chains and actually get up onto the trailer and cross them. Crossing them takes 5 extra minutes at most for 4 chains. and offers plethora of benefits. the only type of securement i think you wouldn't want to cross is Straps. and cables. they can chafe and bind and rub through one another and break. reason for using chains is chains won't rub through each other or get rubbed through by whatever you're tying down.

Tad bit of info on those axles. They are not illegal, just not favored and many tire shops will refuse to work on them. At the tire shop I work at, I've seen and worked on Dayton-type wheels/hubs before and they are easy to work with. Just use common sense around them. At the point of watching something else to note, You have to align them manually or they will wobble side to side going dwn the road. The "illegal" rims are going to be your true split rims. Firestone RH-5 (Widowmakers), specifically, are the ones I'm talking about. Any locking ring rim assemblies are much safer and I work on them just about daily from the 3ton farm trucks up to the 80.000lbs loader tires.

You can get actual trailer tires that are rated for the weight and 70mph. These Dexter axles definitely hold the weight good. I have a case 450 dozer. Mine has a tow bar on rear, that’s where I can down to. I only use 2 chains and 1 binder to transport the dozer. I throw 1 chain over the blade. Then tighten it by back the dozer up.

That's one hell of a trailer.. Pretty well built.. I personally steer clear of tri axle trailers and bumper pull rigs.. That thing needs a big kenworth dump truck pulling it..ive got several trailers that run those demountable 14.5 rims and tires without bead locks and the best advice I can give is to keep them aired up to at least 100 lbs at all times and get yourself some tires with the dot brand on them and they will last quite awhile.. Torque them appropriately and re check them at least 20 miles Into your trip and you will be fine.. I'm running 3600 lb radials on all of mine and get good service from them.. They frown on welded mobile home axles and tires without the dot brand on them but other than that dexter axles and Dayton style rims are legal and serviceable so don't sweat it

@@dieseJL hook to track frame if possible or drawbar. Drop chain threw stake pocket then hook the hook on top lip of stake pocket. Or drop down between rub rail and hook to stake pocket. You also need G80 binder chain to tie load down.

Just to be clear those are not actual mobile home axles. A trailer manufacturer would not use them. They are just Dayton style hubs and not a darn thing illegal about them as long as the tires are good and the brakes work.

Well, I am up here just north of Petoskey and the other day seen a bulldozer just sitting in the woods. Weeds have grown all around it so by looking at your video believe you to be just south of Grayling area or around it. Not that far away so you interested in looking at it or talking to the owner? Always watching and like your content and if interested I could stop by the owners house and talk to them. A lot of stuff on the property.

I see you use multiple different tool brands. What helped you decide to buy the ridged brand impact? Would you buy it again?
@dieseJL
@dieseJL Жыл бұрын
If I were to do it all over again I would go dewalt or Milwaukee cordless tools. RIDGID doesn’t have the battery capacity and they don’t have the variety of tools either. However, for working around the house and the price you get them for, I will not be spending any money on tools in the near future. They suffice just fine!! if you were talking about my miter saw, that thing is great. No need to spend more money on that.

I also paid 1200 for my deckover used Burr Oak 2"×10"×16' deck boards with a 4' bever tail . I don't see a breakaway break system on yours. It will but breaks on automatically it it gets unhooked. Is yours longer than 20 ft ? Sense mine already had holes in cross members i used a long 3/8 drill bit to drill up from the bottom through the oak. We sawed that oak on a old circle saw. So that's my story from Minnesota.
