Tailgating Rock On A Driveway To Fix Soft Spots

[@tristardiggin]

That was definitely a cool project to watch you build back in the summer. I sure would have thought fabric and 8” of rock would have held. Nice work fixing it back up…

[@eliteearthworksllc]

Thanks man! The clay and the freezing and thawing take its to on it. Appreciate you watching

[@sonnyblazer5504]

Thanks for taking us along on a 'quick' view of the area! *TAILGATING on a DEIVEWAY* I remember many years ago when you had the need to do this and you put the word out and I copied a couple of *DIRT BOSSES* videos that you said were a help. NOW look what a *PRO* you are with it! Nice job & big house! Thank you!

[@eliteearthworksllc]

Thank you! Yeah I feel like I’ve come a long way on the tailgating. I’m much more comfortable doing it now. Appreciate you watching

[@darrenblattner2508]

Thats going to be a nice place after you get it all done. The pond looks real good, the road will be fine, after the heavy traffic pounds it down it will last forever. Keep Smilin

[@eliteearthworksllc]

Thank you! I would love to have this property I think it’s a nice spread. I think they are past most of the heavy traffic now.

[@dalepremo3695]

Nice! I didn't think we'd be back here this soon. Good to see an overview of all the changes (it looks like it's going to be BIG house) and you know how we like to watch your expert tailgating! And then you took us on a nice little ride - once again, always enjoyable. Thanks, as always, for sharing you day with us.

[@eliteearthworksllc]

It’s finally drying out so it’s back to work which I’m very happy about, so hopefully I’ll be back on schedule with the videos. I think the house is 4600 sq ft definitely a big one. Thank you! Appreciate you guys watching along. Hope the family is doing well

[@michaelweatherhead9470]

Thanks for the long haul of gravel ❤❤ nicely done with the driveway Brandon 👍. Take care of yourself and family and friends and be Blessed ❤️.

[@eliteearthworksllc]

Thank you! Appreciate you watching and commenting

[@johnlocke1018]

Driveway looks good. Judging by the stage of the house, most of the heavy traffic looks to be done. I think with the regular traffic it’ll work like a traffic roller and slowly pull the moisture up and it’ll start drying and hardening up. It’ll be like the rest of you jobs and look great when finished. Keep up the good work.

[@eliteearthworksllc]

Thank you! Yes I agree most of the heavy traffic should be done now. I definitely think it will harden up this year and stay that way. The freezing and thawing did a number on plus all the lumber trucks. Appreciate you watching

[@sassafrasvalley1939]

The place is coming together! That pond really enhances the property. I thought I noticed a few trees planted too? Weren’t the owners supposed to be retiring soon? I thought I remembered that they planned on moving to the area this summer? With less heavy traffic, driveway will settle in. I think the summer drought should do the trick. Brandon, you did a nice job of shooting and editing this video… thanks for the update.

[@eliteearthworksllc]

Thank you! There may be a couple. He retired but she still works but they did move into that house on the front of the property for now. Yeah I’m guessing the freezing and thawing took a toll on the driveway but it should firm up for good this summer. Thank you! I’m trying to move the camera around a little more lol

[@billyshumate853]

Looking good Brandon. If you want roundabouts come to North Carolina 😂😂. Take care and have a blessed and safe week. Hope everybody's doing well 🙏

[@eliteearthworksllc]

Thank you! 🤣 got a few out then I take it

[@DustyGroundHog]

Gonna be a real nice place once it is done,,Wow nice job.

[@eliteearthworksllc]

Thank you!

[@kevin20044]

I dont think its all the clay from the pond but the freeze thaw we've had has taken a toll on even the hardest ground. Then rain snow off and on. Then heavy trucks on it. It'll be good after the summer I think

[@eliteearthworksllc]

That’s true the freezing and thawing is really hard on driveways and parking lots. I’m guessing it will really firm up thus year and stay that way

It was in the 50's here in Iowa

[@eliteearthworksllc]

Nice! It’s suppose to be 70 here tomorrow. Crazy!

[@rossnolan2883]

Nice 😊

[@eliteearthworksllc]

Thank you!

[@markkenes4848]

You need to put the camera on top and let us here Pete and the turbo 👍👍👍👍👍

[@eliteearthworksllc]

I almost did that I’ll definitely do it for the next one.

[@richwielechowski5191]

Need to find a grader attachment for the loader to dress up the edges. How’s the new pickup to drive?

[@eliteearthworksllc]

Maybe one of these I’ll find one. It’s awesome I love driving that truck!

[@mikeembrey9176]

Nice 👍🏻🇺🇲

[@eliteearthworksllc]

Thank you!

[@Manoffire260]

Sorry if I missed it Brandon - was this “warranty work”?

[@eliteearthworksllc]

No just touching up some soft spots from all the freezing and thawing

[@tomwainwright7102]

👍👍👏👏👏👏

[@eliteearthworksllc]

Thank you!

[@machinemoverman4614]

You kinda act like you’ve done that a time or two. Looks good!

[@eliteearthworksllc]

It’s been awhile but it came back to me 🤣

[@Dirt_mountain-earthworks]

I remember when you were dredging that pond... that is around the time i found your channel and subscribed...Both the pond and the fixed up driveway look amazing. Thanks What engine is in your peterbilt and do you like it?

[@eliteearthworksllc]

Thank you! I’m really happy with the pond too. It has an N14 in it and I love it!

[@Dirt_mountain-earthworks]

@@eliteearthworksllc 👍

[@jameshampton5228]

They don’t make you fix stuff like that for free do they like warranty work ?

[@eliteearthworksllc]

Not let them now there was of a chance of this happening especially with out weather the last two months

[@njonebale7889]

Stacks look good on your 377!…did you add the drop axle?…thought it was a tandem….where did you get the stacks, might need duals on my 377 single axle shorty dump!

[@eliteearthworksllc]

Thanks! Yes I added the drop axle, stacks, fuel tanks, and battery box steps. It’s going in the paint shop here anytime to get a 379 hood and front end on it. I got the stacks at 4 State Trucks

[@njonebale7889]

@@eliteearthworksllc I was thinking of putting a 378 hood on with 359 lights…I like the old style aluminum fenders and the air cleaners…can’t wait to see yours…not sure how they can put a long 379 hood on a 377 frame and line it up with the front axle, that’s why I was thinking 378 because of the hood length.

[@eliteearthworksllc]

@njonebale7889 that would look good! Mine is going to be a 379 short hood but it’s called the little big hood I guess. It’s a short hood but with the extended hood grille. I plan to do the air cleaners as well. I was really thinking of moving the cab back to do a long hood but we figured out it would hit the bed. I had to draw the line somewhere 🤣

[@njonebale7889]

@@eliteearthworksllc can’t wait to see it…it’ll look sweet…does already with those stacks!

[@eliteearthworksllc]

@@njonebale7889 thanks! I’m excited and ready to get it done
