This "simple" recovery turned into more than I bargained for!

This truck was delivering a bridge crane to a local ranch right as an ice storm hit that caused major problems and shut down highways in the area. There was on steep hill getting into the ranch that the truck couldn't make it up, so I brought the @zackliftinternational4841 over to pull him up it. Then due to the cold temperatures, most of the equipment on the ranch hd gel'd up and couldn't start, so I used the Zacklift to unload the crane beams as well. This is where the Zacklift completely blows every other detachable tow unit out of the water. There is only one other brand that has an extendable boom, but it is such a short extension that it can't reach out to the center of a trailer in order to lift a load. Up until a couple years ago when Zacklift created the Genesis, a job like this would have been unthinkable with a detachable tow unit.
While I waited for the truck to get warmed up and backed off the hill I took some time to watch @FabRats put the new @YankumRopes XL rings to the test on an off road recovery!
Oh, and after all was said and done, I tried backing up the same hill that the truck got stuck going forward on just to see if the @onspotnorthamerica22 auto chains would do it!

I like when you pull the camera out like you did today. But what ever you chose to do I am fine with it.

[@glenmiller8888]

The pulling PHONE camera happens to be Casey SHORTS!!

[@KestrelOwens]

I agree for the Zachlift recoveries, for the off road recoveries getting there is a big part of the video.

[@stevenhoffmann9373]

As a flatbed driver this is the type of job I always enjoyed. A pain in the but with all the ups, downs, ins & outs, and back & forths. But when the people your working with have trust that you're capable of and are doing everything correctly and as they want you , it makes you feel good that everything got done safely and nothing/noone was damaged. Job well done by everyone! As for how you start your videos, I prefer a brief explanation of what your about to do.

[@papatomsthoughts]

Agree, unless it has special prep and/or equipment

[@blklbluvr]

I like it this way.

[@kimbaker4470]

Casey, you gave that driver the highest praise any driver can get. "He's paying attention and he knows what he's doing" ❤

[@jordanhawkins7309]

Im a crane operator and will be the first to say there is a million ways to rig any given load. As long as rigging capacities are in check, and nothing is damaged and no one injured, it is all good in my book.

[@cdodge2996]

I'm a professional rigger who doesn't know the original commenter and would have to completely agree.

[@brucemitch928]

If i could just add my wee bit to this discussion, application needs to be mentioned, crane lifts…by the book a shackle ‘bolt’ would be screwed fully up and wire or pin locked. For winching equipment about a vessel deck or vehicle recovery where there is no lifting involved it is unlikely the shackle will see its full working load. Experienced riggers will often back off a shackle only because it lessens the chance of it tightening up under load and it’s easier to undo when disconnecting. In 40yrs I’ve never seen a shackle spread if used correctly.

[@jordanhawkins7309]

@brucemitch928 having worked as a rigger before getting in the crane, I am guilty of backing a shackle off a 1/4 turn just so it doesn't bind when finished lifting. Only time I've ever seen a shackle spread was from being side loaded.

[@timothydarrow9474]

Like the man said, nothing broken or damaged and nobody injured equals success. Well done as usual Casey.

[@RedneckCowboyFeller]

Or as Ron Pratt is so fond of saying, "there are many ways to reach ten". You can add 4+4+2 or 5 and 5, or do it any number of other ways, and as long as it still adds up to ten, it still works. No one way is necessarily better than any other. Given my own past experiences as a towing/recovery technician, a heavy equipment operator, and a number of years as a flatbed and heavy haul trucker, among other things, I'd concur. There are always, of course, certain "no-no's"...But outside of that, whatever works, works, and half a dozen of one is as good as six of the other.

[@jeteater1]

When you said you liked that driver.. what I noticed was the fact he was more than willing to help without bitching and complaining. People willing to work together instead of being all pissy are so refreshing to work with

[@richardthomas1743]

I bet that driver is ready to be back in Florida! He was probably wondering what he got himself into , and your right Casey he did a real good job and was spot on in doing what you asked of him. When you closed your hands together he was paying attention and stopped immediately! I have to say too that for me after watching this video I realize that I prefer most of your videos filmed from your point of view cam. Good job everybody! Thanks for taking us along Casey! 👍

[@davidseale6104]

I like your videos with the lead up and all!! I enjoy your comments!!!

[@020Dutchy]

I bet that guy was the blue semi I saw speeding on the highway at 140 mph 😂 Also the best way to show a driver how far he still has to go while backing up, spreading your hands and closing the gap

[@jameslovitt994]

Experienced flatbed truck drivers know when the delivery is at a "job site" The likelihood of it becoming a complete shitshow are extremely high, especially this time of year.

[@larrykelly4905]

I agree 100% with you Sir!!! Casey is the best!!!🎉

[@brucejones229]

When my daughter was 5 I taught her to guide me the same way while backing to the camper. You should have seen the look on guys faces when they came up to help guide me and I told them to watch how Bailey did it.

[@gcampbell83]

Zacklift needs to just link to your channel for any future potential customers. You show not only does the Zacklift recover snow stuck 18 wheelers, but you also can unload the payload once you get them unstuck! At the very least, I hope the zacklift folks are Patreon members :)

[@btankful]

I don't know why, but this is one of the most enjoyable episodes yet. Getting the heavy trailer up the ice hill, across the bridge, and unloading the heavy beams. Mesmerizing.

[@petgranny194]

[@michaelmustachio5318]

[@Not_Ferrari]

I can't imagine any better advertisement for Zacklift than your channel and all the crazy stuff you do with it. It's a wrecker, a crane, a billboard, just an absolute workhorse... Who knows what you'll get up to next with that thing.

[@chriskulpa4056]

The Zaklift is definitely versatile in that it can be removed but what Casey's doing is nothing different really than you can do with a heavy wrecker, and that's kinda the point of the Zaklift IMHO It's the same as having a dedicated heavy wrecker but with versatility.

[@TheGrizz1717]

Casey, I too am waiting for the rigging comments. As a retired crane operator I think you did just fine. Ps. Dealing with a professional truck driver is a pleasure. It truly is a small percentage that make you shake your head.

[@justindeyoung9968]

I just took a rigging class, and they are to be tight, not only could it pull the shackle apart it will stretch the threads as well.

[@tetedur377]

@@justindeyoung9968 I was an overhead crane operator at 2 different companies; both cab and pendent. That was before the NCCCO, and it was OJT. Later on, in the 2000s, I needed continuing education credits for a job I had, and they didn't care where it came from (heh!), so I took the CCO for that. I think it was a day in the classroom, a day doing practicals (rigging, lifting, moving), and a written test; so 3 CEUs. There I was, a white collar guy taking training for a blue collar job I'd held decades before. Kind of ironic, huh?

Casey I really appreciate the fact that you talk about what you are planning to do and as you go through the process. It makes the video a lot more informational and helps to understand some of the names of equipment that not everyone would know or understand. Keep up the good work you do and posting videos when you can.

[@MM-tw6cm]

not sure how many channels i see the time and will sit back and watch without fast-forwarding- i saw your's 56 min and thought wow- that's long but whatever- started and had more refills on my wine than wondering holy hell when is this over- never happened. Once again pure entertainment and for those who fail to see it- comment and raise a storm ! Great job Casey !

[@chriskulpa4056]

I too don't mind longer format videos as long as there's not a whole lot of dead air or pointless banter. Some don't have a long attention span anymore though. LOL

[@1lilfarm]

Yes, shackles will spread if the bolt is not fully engaged. Loosen them a part turn and do that enough will eventually lead to less thread engagement by the bolt and lessen their rating by quite a bit. Thanks Casey! I enjoy the action directly but I also enjoy when you pick up Grumpy and the back and forth banter with him. Either way, I'll watch all the videos. 👍👍👍

[@dubious6718]

[@chriskulpa4056]

@@dubious6718 He's the first one I thought of and he's been doing it for 30+ years so....I kinda gotta give it to him really. As long as you still have full thread engagement there shouldn't be any issues. I"ll have to pay attention and see if he's got shackles that are spreading.

[@benny5789]

It also leaves the pin/bolt more likely to spin out. Had this happen during some crane picks flying parts in and out on a job. It was because the other guy wasn’t running the pin/bolt all the way in. As the line pulled up he wasn’t paying attention to see the pin spun nearly out on him. He still proceeded to argue that it was fine to do. 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@chriskulpa4056]

@@benny5789 Unless you're picking it up and down 100 times I really don't see how it can spin out. Vibration, but if the strap is under tension it's not going to spin on ya. I call BS and he likely didn't just leave it out a 1/4 turn but likely didn't spin it in much at all! I'd bet he only spin it half a thread instead of backing it off half a turn. 1/4 is all you really need if you're backing it off at all.

[@thelonewrangler1008]

I'm still fascinated with the fact that you can detach the zacklift and be hauling a regular trailer in a few minutes

Good to know on the Shackle. I was told many years ago to turn it back a 1/4 turn to that it does not bind up. No one told me about not meeting its rating. Okay, I also double checked your statement and looked it up for myself. yep. The rigging and lifting site said to put it "very tight". Learn something even when you are as old as I am. :) thanks

[@TheZmt325]

This has to be the best product placement ever for zacklift.

[@Sakratic]

Amazing to see the progression, the more you do something (as long as you're being systematic, methodical - whatever the correct word for it is, about it), the better you should get at doing it - learning, registering, and potentially applying the new found knowledge for use for something else. Awesome video Casey, when I saw it was a long video, I was super stoked to watch along and was thankful that you don't cut up the videos, making us wait to see the eventual outcome, like a lot of KZbinrs like to do. Casey, being Casey, just a genuine decent character!

[@notprovided2823]

Your Zacklift sure makes you more than just a plain old tow truck operator. Being able to Boom out and boom up and winch lift while having a reasonable size truck attached gives you flexibility to get the job done, and might even eliminate some other operators from attempting this kind of job. I particularly like the way the Spades bite into the road and give you such a positive anchor for towing. Thanks for this video

Really impressed with the versatility of the Zak lift and your setup Casey. Some may think your methods are unconventional. I think they are effective and efficient. Great Job.

😮 I really like starting at home and the Grumpy, Ethan, and other interactions before you get there. The towing is only half of why I watch. 😢

Like it when you walk us through whats going to happen. Then we know when things deviate we understand things aren't going as planned and adjustment are being made made. It completes the story for the person watching.

I like the "Day In The Life of Casey (I never said I was good at this) LaDelle" videos. I'm here to learn, have fun, and see our C.O home through someone else's eyes.

Very nicely done Casey!

I prefer starting at the job site, unless there is some special prep required for a particular job. Or, as someone else mentioned, there is banter with Grumpy. That's always enjoyable.

A brief intro is good, especially for new viewers. I would consider treating an intro like it’s for someone viewing the channel for the first time. Thanks for the videos, and your passion to help the less fortunate! 👍🏽

Well done Casey. That was a nice days work!

[@joefreeman1547]

Keep doing what your doing.

Yep - What a "tool" the Zacklift become. And with a good operator - even better. Well Done and keep up the good work mate.

I think "getting there" video is nice when you drive thru interesting or difficult country. Otherwise 'on the job' is just fine. Excellent truck driver... everyone was helping out in the right way.

Great video , keep up the amazing work

[@djmarkham9762]

That was a lot of fun. Thank you!

It's nice sometimes to see parts of your trip... The Oregon landscape is so beautiful. Short bits of driving through the deep snow is fun to see.
