Red-tagged at the scales for TWO INCHES! Mannn talk about cutting it CLOSE! We get jobs at the scales all the time, mainly for overweight. But this is a first; being put out for literally 2 inches. This company called us and told us that this poor driver had been there since the night before. The original tow truck company they called showed up, struggled then left after he couldn't do it. Not sure what method they used, but we sent Alex in Big Flipper, our 75ton rotator.
These are very unusual lifts, so Alex decided to play it super safe by using dual spreader bars. On top of this, he used all synthetic rigging from Bailey's Tow Accessories and extra protection to protect both the straps and the concrete load. Once fully rigged, it was lift time so this unit could ever so gently be lined up 2" away.
Job was successful and the scale gave him the green light to proceed. The beauty of sending Big Flipper on this job is the ability to handle such a heavy load off the side at this distance. Customer was on his way after a long 24hrs and more than likely probably wished they called us first. What did you guys think of this super heavy solo lift from Alex?

@CowboyCanadian

my wife never complaining about 2 inches 😂

@Bogieking78

Freaking Chips. Two inches? Really? I've seen picky but this takes the case!

@rd4660

Well, it's not legally over-wide, but I can see how the Chippie could be concerned with side-to-side balance. OTOH, if you take 40,000 and divide it by the width of the trailer (102") you wind up with about 392 pounds per linear (front to rear) inch of load width. So a 2" overhang to one side is only 784 pounds of a 40,000# load. That's nothing, so the Chippie must have had a burr under his saddle.

That is ridiculous. Welcome to California “The special state”.

@TanksInSpace_

If cops were that firm when they saw their colleagues breaking the law, KZbin would be missing out on hundreds of new videos every week.

@billsimmons7754

I'll bet that everyone feels safer now that this has been moved two inches. I can't understand why everything costs so much in California..... or just maybe I can.

I had the misfortune of crossing from Mexico to the USA at El Paso on a border inspector`s first day on the job and she wanted to tear our car apart before another agent stopped her.

@user-zt9bg3pr4m

Another professional job well done by Alex. Alex is so polite and respectful. Awesome representation of Pepe’s

@millwrightdad3753

I’ve had my life ruined over 2”. They always ask, why can’t it be another 2” and I have to leave shaking my head

@ST-ej9bt

Had to call big dawgs to come slide that over

@lennardvanetten9764

The confidence Alex has is cool to watch. "Yeah imma do this and that, and that will go there"

@Rebel_808

Overhang by 2 inches? That’s something I would expect from the Banning weigh station 😂

@DeenChuck

Good Job. Congratulations Alex, you're getting so much better at "talking" us through your thought process.

@ginafleener3962

I thought they allowed 4 inches each side? Nit picking CHP!!!!

@chrisblore6385

You guys are sooo close to one hundred thousand subscribers 👍

@autumn7ful

I think that’s what I Meyer most about you guys and you, Alex and Josh and always explain exactly everything you’re doing and I really find that so exciting and interesting as a 71-year-old female I’ve always always liked cars and trucks so this is right up my alley

Nice work, Alex. Way to stay positive even though it was 2 inches and you had to finish up in the rain!

@edwinschlee8374

Good job Alex for straightening out the shipper's mistake.

@kevinkenyon7045

Alex another quality job, you show so much respect to the customer and the CHP, that goes a long way for PEPES! Thanks for sharing and stay safe! Kevin
