    Well done mate, I’ve been at it for 10 years now on the heavy side, and for sure loaded 8 wheelers are heavy bits of kit to tow. Our heavy team appreciate your videos and your attention to detail. Much respect matey, stay safe out there.

    Thanks!
    Might not work on EU trucks but I found on the Miller Holmes web page a light duty air actuator the clamps to the top of the brake pedal and the bottom of the steering wheel, Has a small air line connection that I couple to the trailer brake line when towing a straight truck. (Only works on my hand valve not the pedal)It works pretty well but can be kind of jumpy. Just a suggestion, I truely enjoy your work style and patients, Guess I'm spoiled working in large spaces, the long nose pete I operate would be totally useless to you.
    Stay safe.

    I was recovered in an 8 wheeler Scania once, with a Fassi crane behind the cab and a two axle drag. 44 tonne gross, plus the wrecker. He had the advantage of brakes on the trailer, but we got to a mini roundabout on a slight up hill gradient and it just went in a straight line!!

    Hi Steve. This may be a stupid Q but why do you need to disengage the prop shaft if the gearbox is in neutral? Is it to do with a lack of oil pressure in the gearbox?

      Hi Aaron , we need to disconnect the drive to gearbox to safeguard any potential damage in recovery process, regardless auto or manual gearbox.

      Hi Jim thanks for watching, on a Scania with double drive you would have to remove 2 half shafts but this had hub reduction axles which would requiring stripping down to disconnect drive. Prop easiest option on double drive axles just 4 bolts.

      Hi hardave thanks for watching , if stolen the steering lock would most likely been taken out , so steering should still be able to turn. But if unable to get steering to turn and fully loaded , our low loaded be best option with retractable air line to blow off brakes and winch up.

    Hey there, I looked through your videos and want to ask you if you know the vdz system. It’s a recovery system that use the (front) so the front axil don’t need to be lifted. It used to be easier in some situations, like in this video with the heavy load.

    Another great video Steve! You mention that your truck will be the only vehicle doing all the breaking. Does that mean the only reason you supply air to the truck being towed is to prevent the brakes coming on? Is that the same for trailers on artics? Would it ever be possible to rear lift a loaded dumper or would that need a total lift?

    • @HeavyRecoverywithSteve
      @HeavyRecoverywithSteve  2 роки тому +2

      Hi thanks for watching, on trucks we just supply air to keep brakes off only not able to brake them. Unit and trailers we supple air to unit still and 2 air lines to trailer, red lines supplies air to trailer and yellow line brakes the trailer from the wrecker. Not possible to rear lift a loaded 32t as you lifting most of the vehicles weight.

    Why lift all the way from the axle? Very heavy.

    • @HeavyRecoverywithSteve

      Thanks for watching, best practice to left loaded 8 wheelers with the first axle lifted with forks and the second axle on the road taking weight off the wrecker.

      @@HeavyRecoverywithSteve I disagree, lifting from springhangers behind the bumber would be the best option in my mind.
