    I would do “J” hooks on your towing logo instead of log chain ends. Also give me a job driving the semi wrecker. I have my cdl and have been in towing for the last 12 years but only light/medium duty towing. Enjoy your content brother!

    You don't want to move the fuel tanks back. The fuel tanks are better off in their current location due to the fact that wreckers need as much weight forward as possible especially when you are using an under lift.

  • @darrencatenacci2737
    @darrencatenacci2737 Рік тому +5

    Yes you need that wrecker fixed to go tow all your trucks home when they break. You’ll put that big axle upfront and the frame won’t be able to handle the weight. More than likely that’s a lightweight highway frame. That’s why it only has a 12,000 pound axle on it in the first place. You’ll put a 20,000 pound axle on and it’ll break. But it’ll look cool till it does.

  • @mickeybobbitt5081

Do yourself a favor Miller industries is in Tennessee go and take a class or 2 on heavy towing and recovery the tips and tricks they teach will make you safer and more efficient plus learn the quirks and techniques to make you a great operator!

    Them Hyundia trailers are decent. With that being said i pulled a brand new 2019 for 2 years. Bought brand new in 2020. That same trailer 3 years later has only been pulled by me and my father, No accidents and well taken of. Cheaply made, It leaks water from the floor up, the seams inside the trailer are separating, slack adjusters needed replacing after only 2 years, the aluminum rails already have small holes from road salt/brine(thats with frequent washes in the winter) Maybe we got a lemon but hopefully that trailer treats you better than what our has.

    Tim if I was you id definitely not be buying new trailers I’d keep buying great-excellent condition 3-5 year old trailers. Because you can get 3-4 great- excellent condition used trailers for what you can buy 1 new trailer for. If I was you I’d buy 6 great - better condition trailers and let those 6 pay for themselves and pay for a brand new trailer. Keep that system going & sell off Your oldest worst condition trailers and keep up grading to newer used ones. Because you got the right idea by buying great used equipment because it’s gonna pay for itself & start making profit a lot faster than buying new equipment. 👍🏼

    That 2nd trailer you hooked onto. That's an old prime intermodal trailer. That trailer is very heavy and beefed up because it traveled by rail all the time. It's beefed up for putting up with any damage done to it by the railroad. It's also why it has such a huge fuel tank on it.

    Smart move make the truck start making money then let the truck pay for all the upgrades you want
    On the truck 2 maybe 3 tows will pay for the upgrades you wantthen 3 to 6 months down the road the truck will pay for its self 2 maybe 3 times then you can really dowhat you wanna do upgrade wise not worry about oweing a bank for truck glad to see you are useing your head for more than a hat rack my daddy always taught me to buy older let the older stuff pay for its self and if you do it right the old truck will eventually buy you a brand new one over time as long as you save your money

    Tim Trust Me when I say this if you don't do what you want to do to the Tow Truck you will NEVER EVER do the things you wanted to do to it. Take the extra few days and make the Tow Truck look like you want believe it or NOT the better it looks the more MONEY you will make. They have done studies about how your equipment looks like in a business the better it looks the more business you will get. Companies don't want halfway and bottom equipment moving there freight when a company or person sees how nice your equipment looks they know that You have a Awesome equipment and you care about your business it's FACT!! Good Luck 🤞. I pray that everything goes good and works out.

They went full containers now and got rid of them.

    Hi Tim glad to see you keeping busy about towing start small grow with it I have a buddy up here in Canada Not sure if I told you this but he is a heavy haul equipment guy in the summer he hauls a lot of construction equipment not busy in the winter months he was scared that he was going to go under so he saw a D.T.U. On his truck talked to the guy and said he was some what in the same situation so in the winter he tows trucks across Canada to keep his trucks making money in the summer when he is busy he takes the towing units off and hauls his construction equipment as to day I think he is up to 6 D.T.U.s and two wreckers take care Tim stay safe
