RENAULT UNIT & TRAILER HEAVY RECOVERY! 44 TONNES & LOADED!

[@thomasgarwell8214]

Hi Steve. Not been on myself for a month or two as my desktop decided to pack it in. I had a good innings with it, being over 10 years old. So I treated myself to a new one, but downside is that I lost all my KZbin people, and apologies, but I forgot about you. But I did in the end, so doing some catch-up. Its lovely when you get people changing their jobs and going down different routes because they've been watching you. You sir, are an inspiration🤗

[@HeavyRecoverywithSteve]

Hi Thomas thanks very much for watching, glad you found me again , much appreciated.

[@Adam-mn3on]

Glad to have you back Steve, missed these videos. Really enjoying them as ever - stay safe out there!

[@HeavyRecoverywithSteve]

Thanks for watching , glad you enjoy them.

[@rickybobby9255]

Good to pair you up with the new folks - you certainly know your stuff and are a great example of working safely and smartly. Am glad you covered that street drain - don't want to lose any bolts or washers down there! It's amazing all the knowledge you have about all the different truck configurations.

[@HeavyRecoverywithSteve]

Thanks very much for watching , much appreciated.

[@jameskerr5756]

Thanks for sharing Steve. Great that you've encouraged someone to take on the role through your videos. Interesting to see the half shaft replacement on this one. And yes, safety first as always where predictable busy traffic is concerned.

[@HeavyRecoverywithSteve]

Hi James thanks very much for watching , yes well pleased someone watched the videos and wanted to do this work , Craig has turned into a good recovery operator and a friend.

[@keithbrueton]

Thanks for sharing Steve

[@HeavyRecoverywithSteve]

[@HeavyRecoverywithSteve]

[@abuubaydullah1]

Definitely not the safest place to do a recovery Steve but with all the experience you have steve you know how to stay safe, thank you as always for the video .

[@HeavyRecoverywithSteve]

Thanks for watching the channel again , much appreciated.

[@michaellarking5487]

I laughed when you mentioned that you sometimes forget to take your marker board and rear number plate off the recovered vehicle I deliver trucks on trade plates and sometimes forget to remove the plates. Usually remember when I’m on the train home.😊

[@HeavyRecoverywithSteve]

Thanks for watching Michael , i am not alone then lol.

[@stevecrisell108]

Yet Another Interesting And Informative Video Steve. Well Done. 🙂

[@HeavyRecoverywithSteve]

Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for watching Steve.

[@johndrew3202]

A nice different job today. I am very impressed at your knowledge of different trucks, it must take a bit of doing with all the new types coming out. Looking forward to your 1st electric breakdown!

[@HeavyRecoverywithSteve]

Hi John thank for watching , recovered a few now , buses best rear lift otherwise you have to disconnect the electrics motors that drive the wheels .

[@matthewscott1803]

Another great video Steve.

[@HeavyRecoverywithSteve]

Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for watching Mathew.

[@BruceCarbonLakeriver]

Fun video and sounds like you're a great teacher. That spot was sure perilous but you got it handled quick! Well done!

[@HeavyRecoverywithSteve]

Thanks again for watching Seth , much appreciated.

[@MrDbone75]

A very good Monday morning to you sir from Wellington Somerset

[@davidbeeston2481]

Another excellent video I admire your work ethic both in terms of safety, having to undertake such tasks in a hazardous environment, and with regard to considering pollution e.g. covering the storm drain. The only other related videos I find of interest and enlightenment that I watch are those of Ron Pratt over in Missouri at Midwest Truck.

[@HeavyRecoverywithSteve]

Thanks very much for watching , much appreciated.

[@PeterNorman-xd8tr]

Hi Steve, you and your colleagues knowledge when recovering vehicles is top drawer as on this Renault the hand brake and the settings I'm old school; so it was a manuel hand brake in my time even checking the oil and water has changed for the driver now mostly computer done.

[@HeavyRecoverywithSteve]

Hi Peter thanks for watching , manual handbrake for me as well , recovering a few trucks now with electronic park brakes faults coming up as warnings on dashboards.

[@DaveM_thetrucker]

Great vid as always steve and how dare you contaminate the Volvo hub cover with a Renault 😂😂

[@HeavyRecoverywithSteve]

Hi Dave thanks for watching , lol.

[@HeavyRecoverywithSteve]

Thanks for watching.

[@seanvernon5549]

That stuff on the trl is plastics trackway I moved a lot of that when I was at WS. It’s manly used by the power companies for when they are putting in new power lines.

[@HeavyRecoverywithSteve]

H Sean thanks for watching and commenting.

[@Pretzel114]

Great video Steve. Glad you were able to trane some new workers. We need more folks in the trades.

[@HeavyRecoverywithSteve]

Thanks very much for watching , yes i agree mate.

[@derekdee9592]

Good video Steve & looks damn complicated on these modern trucks mate in terms of systems to remember !

[@HeavyRecoverywithSteve]

Hi thanks for watching Derek , yes your right mate electronic handbrakes seem to be the norm now , what was wrong with the manual operated park brake.

[@yuhl313]

l like see you video ,very good 👍💪🍻

[@HeavyRecoverywithSteve]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@Pistol0291]

Hi Steve. When you put forks under the front axle Ive noticed that you put them sometimes too close to the middle. Wouldn't it be more stable if you put them more outboard, say between the u bolts? I would quickly bow to your experience, but is this not possible? Probably some of your viewers would put me right on this. Love the content keep it coming Peter Liverpool

[@HeavyRecoverywithSteve]

Hi thanks for watching , normally Pete you be better on a wider pick up against the u bolts as you say , but on some axles the axle gets narrower by the u bolts so a normal size fork would slop around and twist as Renault truck in video. So on this axle which is the same as Volvo us i now tend to locate fork on thicker section on bend so fork want slide inwards i hope this makes sense mate.

[@michaelbryan1660]

Nice one Steve lovely 👍👍from me 👊

[@HeavyRecoverywithSteve]

Glad you enjoyed it , thanks Michael.

[@deadgamer21]

We are not worthy recovery jesus

[@HeavyRecoverywithSteve]

Thanks for watching .

[@COOLYTCHANEL]

Dose your pick up truck break down ?

[@HeavyRecoverywithSteve]

Thanks for watching , not had any problems so far.

[@Kiwi_NZ610]

Hi steve

[@HeavyRecoverywithSteve]

Hi Mate thanks for watching.

[@yan24to]

A manual gearbox DAF,a very rare thing these days.

[@HeavyRecoverywithSteve]

Thanks for watching , yes most trucks i recovery now have auto boxes and its surprising now how many drivers comment they have never driven a manual.

[@michaelbrownlow9577]

Hi Steve, seen lots of your videos now but not seen an accident damaged vehicle. Do you do this sort of work or is it one of those situations where you feel it’s best not to film someone else’s misfortune? Great channel by the way….

[@HeavyRecoverywithSteve]

Hi Michael thanks for watching , unfortunately i cant film all the work i do , most trucks and buses i recover our all fully signed up and companies dont want to see there vehicles being towed. I have had to remove several videos now just because of small logos that the company recognised on film.

[@michaelbrownlow9577]

Thanks for taking the trouble to reply Steve. I really enjoy the channel and think I could almost do it myself now apart from the air lines, the half shaft removal oh and the chains. In fact what am I thinking - leave it to Steve!!! Puzzled by you are very selective about when you use the beacons. I would have thought in this day and age they would be on all the time when towing?@@HeavyRecoverywithSteve

[@James-xb7eg]

👍

[@HeavyRecoverywithSteve]

Thanks very much for watching James.

[@TheJuliusF]

Quite risky on the hard shoulder like this m8. Here in The Netherlands usually the lane next to the defective truck will be closed to make working safer.

[@HeavyRecoverywithSteve]

Thanks for watching Julius , i agree mate , we should have more cover in UK if expected to work on the motorways.
