Hello Steve. I'm watching here in Australia. I really like your channel. In our road laws here, we have to place orange traffic cones at the offside of the vehicle if we're going to be doing something on that side. Not that it's going to stop somebody from being stupid, but it's interesting to see how all the regulations around the world differ.

I enjoy watching your videos soo much. It’s amazing how much experience and skills you have to be brave enough to drive this vehicle combination. I think it’s fine to reverse a trailer (I have my truck license since 3 months) but here you have to angles where this combination turns, don’t you? Do you have a technique how to reverse with your manual transmission? Because I thought your clutch would be on fire by reversing that heavy truck with a lower speed? You have my highest respect

Effin brilliant Steve. I'm 50 and have been around artics since I was 5 when the article aka "father" got his first, a 19t Bedford TK pulling a single axle 40ft Freuhauf stepframe carrying boats, and drove them myself for 28 years (including 9 years as a big ole owner driver, 7 years of it in a lhd 6x2 V1 FH16 (long story, but best truck I ever drove)) prior to quitting due to mental health issues. Although I have no intentions of returning to that life, I still love watching your videos and similar stuff. In all that time, I never saw or did a better reversing manouvre, despite experiencing plenty of tight blindsiders and plenty of practice sessions etc. Utmost respect. Cheers :-)

Just recently found your channel…Clearly you are interested in heavy equipment and associated tools Hydraulics and the like…Would you ever consider designing a hydraulic setup mounted on to the end of the lift arm so as to curl around the front axle and lock in place ….save you crawling under with chains.

[@jameskerr5756]

Great job Steve. That tow being 90ft long is very impressive but not as much as the reverse. Bit frustrated for you having had it in the 'correct' place to start with only to have to do it again. Can't even think about how you reverse something with effectively two articulations in it. Bad enough car and trailer sometimes. Thanks for sharing.

[@HeavyRecoverywithSteve]

Thanks James for watching, needed the practise.

[@beeble2003]

The theory is that you think about which way the towed unit would need to turn to push the trailer where it's supposed to go, then use the tow truck to push the unit that way. Actually doing that in practice, twice, and nailing it both times, requires Steve-level driving.

[@glenjones6980]

My transporter had to be recovered from the Dartford area and dragged back to the North East. The A19 was full .of width limited works and the A1 closed for roadworks near Durham. Not ideal in the dark, thankfully I was empty but the diversion was heading for a spot I knew was going to be a bit rough if we had to head that far. The only other time I've been hitched up I started with 12 cars on and it was never going to work (a smidge over 16 foot and hardly any turning gap from unit to trailer), that was a couple of hours with the hand pump to shift the decks about getting shot of most of the load.

[@HeavyRecoverywithSteve]

Thanks for watching and commenting Glen , respect to you mate, you got a lot responsibility loading and unloading them cars would not know where to start.

Hi Craig thanks for watching , dont no much about filming mate ,just stick GoPro on me head and hope for best , maybe i should start looking into this , i can only film small portion of the work i do without upsetting customers.

[@Jamiet136]

For reversing Can you put the pin in on the between the recovery truck and unit so there’s no pivot?

[@HeavyRecoverywithSteve]

Hi thanks for watching, pin on underlift is only there to keep cross head from turning when in stow position when not being used.

[@garywatson8863]

Hope they pay well great driving little tip get passenger to phone you and he can talk you back .

[@HeavyRecoverywithSteve]

Hi Gary thanks for watching , good tip that cheers.

[@excossack]

Amazed at the skill of 90ft of reversing. How do you cope with two points of articulation? Or do you lock the underlift so the articulation is the trailer?

[@HeavyRecoverywithSteve]

Thanks for watching John , we can only lock the undelift when in stow position with a pin . Normally we dont get to reverse artics very often so always a challenge where customers want them parked up. I tend to pull further forward to straighten the unit and trailer before i reverse and just small turns on steering wheel, to try and keep it all in line.

[@excossack]

Volvo Reading looks like Volvo Burgess Hill...zero room!! Funny your on the car transporters Steve,saw one of yours hooking up a car transporter just past ASDA at Burgh Heath on Thursday. Great vid as always,one question (probably a stupid one) why don't you use the trailers electrics from your truck for the rear lights and just put your number plate on,alot more visible than a tailer board. I know those lights are wireless as I have a set. Keep the videos coming,really interesting. Stay safe.

[@HeavyRecoverywithSteve]

Thanks Neil for watching, normally plug into trailer electrics on longer journeys , but with this wagon and drag set up they dont have regular 7 pin plug which runs lighter wiring, so decide to use wireless trailer for speed really.Thanks for commenting.

[@WHuds01]

Gordon Bennette beat the half shaft up a bit good reverse skills

[@HeavyRecoverywithSteve]

Hi thanks for watching , Volvo half shafts do take some hitting i am afraid , this one had not been off for a while.

[@fleet1stltd326]

Knowing what you know after years of recovery... if you were to start a small haulage company, which manufacturer would you choose? For reliability.

[@HeavyRecoverywithSteve]

Hi thanks for watching , reliability wise i recover more newer trucks up than older trucks. Ad blue faults and DPF faults getting more common and causing trucks to loose power going into limp modes. Take your pick really on manufacturers really , we do work for most of them.

[@DRIFTDISEASE]

34°c in the UK?!

[@royvowles7142]

Hi Steve, great video as always but is there a way to determine which side the diff lock is on or just down experience

[@HeavyRecoverywithSteve]

Hi Roy thanks for watching, you can tell what side diff lock is on by the wiring and air pipes going that side of diff. We remove the half shaft opposite to that as a rule , unless unsafe to do so then pull diff side half shaft out , but can be bugger to refit sometimes.
