We need more struggle videos like this! If we all recorded ourselves trying to do a 2-3 person job by ourselves it would look like this, but maybe worse. Glad it all worked out!
Bro im dead.. I was laughing my ass off watching that last part i could see in my head what was going to happen when you tryed to shut the tailgate only because i got my self in that same spot before.... Not fun but i learned a new way for my application... At lest you didn't get to hurt. Love the content all the way in Michigan.
I see what you did there Luke. And I know why. I love how respond to all the "know it all's" with you satirical videos. You sir, are why I follow you. You get up everyday and grind it out your way. F all the keyboard warriors whom have never been out of their mom's basement.
Just found you’re Chanel very cool young man nice to see young a young person taking to the water keep up the good work . I no by now you have finished painting you’re boat but If I may In the coast guard we primed the deck whether it was aluminum or steel them we laid down the deck paint and we used a hand held Scott’s seeder to spread the non skid over it it lasted at least six mouths . But what I used later on my sailboats is this none skid like rhino liner from home depo for porch and patio I no what you’re thinking but as long as it’s Applied right it might just work for you and it’s a lot cheaper than the Apoxsee’s good luck and keep up the good work god bless
You are HILARIOUS!!! Stumbled on your channel and have just about watched all of your videos over the course of a week! You're a hard workin', blue collar dude and it must be a blast to be in your company! Keep up the great work and keep the funny/struggle videos comin!! Safety third! Haha
2:49 this is when a mackerel trapper has a plan D Park the trick sideways to the forklift, an as you do what your doin now, you could slide the topper across to folks an not worry about dropping or bustin up anything? Hope this helps yea next time myguy, be safe
Hey brother, you have a pile of pallets there. Next time make a ramp stepping it down and you can just slide it down the pallet with the tailgate take it off.
I’ve had days comparable to your day. I was a cook in the Coast Guard and prepared a few meals at n the Bering during 40 footers. This don’t always work out. I feel ya. 👊👍
3:16 Steve Austin 😂 anywhoo This is the bit the forklift should be behind the truck an the cap could just be sitting on the forks, but I just aim also just a green grabber
I woulda tried fork extensions with maybe some tires to cushion against the ceiling of the cap. But other than that - I can't believe you didn't have to bleep something out.
A couple straps or lengths of rope and a couple pieces of pipe over the forks allows you to lift from above. Its even easier if you were to put roof racks on the cap.
From what you showed of your yard were you remove the topper at, I could show an make you a sling setup for you to remove it by yourself which I'm sure you've thought of yourself but haven't the time to manufacture
For future reference if you wanna use the Moffitt to remove the truck cap try just keeping a pallet on the forks maybe a couple? The forks them won't have to go up so high and will clear the window
pop the shocks loose on the window and the window will slide right out the side sometimes there little screws in the track that have to be removed first.
Um, some trestles set at the right height to receive your top as it slides off? Then it can live on the trestles until you’re ready to drive back and fit it back on.
Spray some lube on the rails/bottoms where its sliding and tape some stiff cardboard to the back tail lights. Prep the spot youll drop it with some heavy drop cloths you have bundled up so when the cover drops on ehm they act like a spring. When you can, try finding time to add two or 4 metal loops to the top of the cover so the forklift fork can go through them easily and take off yhe cover more easily in future. Try to anticipate and prep for problems
Luke your videos are great in this day and age of lazy people. Your trials and tribulations make all of us that go thru the same BS say hey its not just me😂😂😂😂
Designate a large bright orange tool box that has tight lids when closed. Even better if they have a gasket! Keep all your tools and a few cans if starter fluid and wd40 inside there. Keep the toolbox where You always know to keep it
A couple of 2x4 runners should simplify removing your camper cover and save your tail lights etc. I say "should " because thats the way I do it, and everyone is a little different in their methods.
Hey Luke @fvsoutherngirl It looks like you need to organize your yard bro. I am Lake Shore Native and still live in the Dirty Dena. My teenager and I can help. Our fee would be one of the scrap cars (gotta help get it running I am not engine savvy) you got laying around.
The next time, you need to either put that canopy on or off... place the forklift forks parallel to your tailgate. Then, slide the canopy onto the forks, and vice versa, putting it on.
Dude, you need stuff. You've got stuff but you need other stuff and more better stuff. Like a winch to take the cap off. And a large table to set it on. Some 2x4's and plywood about 4 feet high. People could send you stuff if they know where to send it. Looking good😎

I would love a video off all the hidden jewels in the yard like what was parked behind the forklift 😍
1:30 she just loves her wake me up and ready sauce 😂
I love watching you because it makes me feel like I'm not the only unlucky one lmao.

You’re so full of pep and energy, you could do your crabbin, and an OF channel 💰💰💰

2:13 yes there was a planA but then it backfired, Soo plan B it was, then plan B fergot about appointment b so now it's back to plan Sea
2:49 this is when a mackerel trapper has a plan D
Park the trick sideways to the forklift, an as you do what your doin now, you could slide the topper across to folks an not worry about dropping or bustin up anything?
Hope this helps yea next time myguy, be safe
😂 for a moment, I thought you’d be calling CJ to get the number for his back doctor.

Luke Man. You’re amazing. Your determination and stamina is outstanding. Go Bro 🤗

Man down ..... 😂😂😂😂 The struggle is real

im so happy to see its not just me who does stupid things like this😂
Crab videos can't wait 👍
Hahah the daily struggles that people normally don’t see 😂😂
pop the shocks loose on the window and the window will slide right out the side sometimes there little screws in the track that have to be removed first.
That Worked like a perfect plan 😅
That's how I took off my truck topper. But I back the truck to a retaining wall so I could walk completely off.
Um, some trestles set at the right height to receive your top as it slides off?
Then it can live on the trestles until you’re ready to drive back and fit it back on.

The struggle is real lol. Been there
Suggestion put hooks on the roof So you can hook to the forklift
Luke your videos are great in this day and age of lazy people. Your trials and tribulations make all of us that go thru the same BS say hey its not just me😂😂😂😂

ROFLMMFAO!!!! Dude, that is soooo me!!!! 😅🤣😂😆
Ran into a similar problem years ago....trying to get a mortar mixed off the back of a truck by myself.
Put a few pallets on the forks bud. Then when you go to put it back on you can pick it right up
A couple of 2x4 runners should simplify removing your camper cover and save your tail lights etc. I say "should " because thats the way I do it, and everyone is a little different in their methods.

Never miss a video 🤙🫶🏻
Never mind I’m a dumb ass. I watch the whole video next time but definitely do the pallet ramp.
Maybe use 2x4's with a pull to slide the cap down off the truck
Dude, you need stuff. You've got stuff but you need other stuff and more better stuff. Like a winch to take the cap off. And a large table to set it on. Some 2x4's and plywood about 4 feet high.

Nice forklift, she just needed a wiff of the warm summer breeze
It's alot like watching myself work... 😂
Boss man 4 55 gallon drums make this soooooo much easier
I did that exact same thing by myself once. Once.
Gas on a rag works also
Clamp some 4x4s to the forks to make them longer.
get a shovel or shop broom to prop up the cap, then pull the truck out
I definitely would have broke something trying to do that solo.
I swear it's like watching myself. Do the same thing, all. the. time.
Been there. Done that. 😀
Extensions for the forks??
I was thinking the same thing..
If you have fork extension you want no crabber
Nothing like the smell of ether in the morning. Got to watch out for that starter fluid.
Why you didn’t strap a couple 2X4’s to the forks so they are longe enuf to go and the way in and pick it up like that ez and less pain
I almost lived this, thanks for doing it so I don't do it.
There were so many choices and chances for you to be successful a hour ago
Also, just a thought not trying to be a smart ass. But you can always lift the cap up, shut the tailgate and then set the cat down on the ground.
Prop that cover up with a 2×4 or 2 for the next time lol.
That chain hoist, with a belly strap or two...
Did that once, cost me $400 for a new window.
5:46 dam dude you don't need no gym pass when you work yourself that hard
I am surprised you don't have some type of rope and pully to pull off those caps easier. Nice work though.
Make some fork extenders
I expected him to just prop it up from the inside with a couple of 2x4
That was funny shit!
Next time use 2 2x4s as ramps and slide it off
our minds work a lot alike..... this was not a compliment. LOL
That's the stuff you keep secret Luke llol
I would literally live to work for you lad haha any chance of a job 🤔👍🤣
Saw horse bubba 🤷
Hilarious!
This is me.
If you haven't had a hernia operation before 30 you ain't no real crabber
It's like looking in a mirror
🤦🏼♂️🤣
Do U miss me???
Hit me up the next time you take a cap off or put it on i will help
