    Looking good there Sam. Depending on the camera angle, at times it looks like there is a lot of trailer behind the pivot point😳, ya I would be nervous too. The break over angle is awesome and the deck sealer looks like it will do the trick....nice first pull, thanks for sharing 👍👍👍🇺🇸

    I've been using Ready Seal for almost 20 years. I have applied thousands of gallons of that stuff. IMHO, there is nothing better for outdoor wood.
    Decks, trailers, porches, log homes, cedar siding... name it -- it works.
    Sweet ass trailer BTW...

    Never even thought about putting deck stain / sealer on a utility trailer, have always used a bucket of used oil , sometimes mixed with old diesel, painted on with a old mop. Our summers are really hard on wood decks in South Texas, and sometimes rain , ice ect. So old oil is the local favorite
    And sometimes the oil field guys spray salty well water on the gravel roads to knock down the bull dust
    I so I guess used oil helps hold down the rust on axles and springs, California probably don’t ever have salt or harsh summer weather
    That stain looks nice and you did spend $35000 + on the trailer so it probably deserves the extra cost/ TLC to keep it looking fancy, please keep us updated on how it holds up and if you stay pleased with stain

  • @andrevernon1932
    @andrevernon1932 Рік тому

    I have a 2017 F-550 with a heavy gooseneck trailer with tandem duals. The bad thing is that the trailer is short, only 17' deck, plus 6' dovetail. I want to buy a 9 ton excavator, and I am a bit concerned about towing that heavy with that set-up. I'd have to put the excavator all the way to the front of the trailer, and the boom will still extend all the way to the very back end of the trailer. I know it will do it. But should I do it? I am sure it would weigh heavy on the truck axle. I estimate that the total weight of it all would be about 41,000 lbs., which would slightly exceed the 40,000 lbs. GCWR rating of the truck. Will it be safe? Will it be legal? Those are my big concerns.

    • @VBELTandSON
      @VBELTandSON  5 років тому +1

      Ronny Spencer 100% not lacking any brakes. Didn’t you watch the video? I demonstrated the brakes in the video service brakes and both engine brakes. And modern pick ups are rated to tow this much and do it day it and day out. Not a big deal

    • @ronnyspencer7671
      @ronnyspencer7671 5 років тому

      V-BELT and SON I guess will have to do a greed to disagree because an engine brake on a B series Cummins means nothing. Your set up kind of seems like the tail is wagging the dog if you know what I mean. That’s just my two cents I know I was much happier when I went to a larger pull truck

    • @VBELTandSON
      @VBELTandSON  5 років тому +2

      Ronny Spencer engine braking is very good with this set up. Both engine brake and an exhaust brake. Two engine brakes make a huge difference. I made a video talking about why I don’t have a semi and well you watched a video that showed a perfect example of why this set up works so well. It fits in these small jobs. Either way you seem to have made up you mind. FYI I own the machines I haul. I’m not for hire.

Over the last 15 years I just got tired of wearing out pick up trucks so I thought outside the box and made it set up that works much better and is safer and more efficient for my use. Your trailer truck combo is sick, What’s again don’t come across thinking that I am marking you don’t like what you got and be safe out there.
