Just a little bit of damage… 😬

  • I've been wanting to try this new recovery technique for quite awhile, an my first attempt at it shows exactly why I never tried it on an actual job. The goal was to be able to lift the high side of the bus, spike down the front axle of the bus, and run a catch line to set it down softly, all while stabilizing the boom, with only two winches. I had to re rig it to prevent sheave head interference, then realized I incorrectly rigged the catch line to the rim, but on the second attempt everything went really smooth. Now that I've done this method in the yard, I would feel confident doing it on an actual job if needed, and since I now know exactly how to rig it, I think I could do the complete rigging in under 15 minutes.

    Casey’s wife probably listens to him talking about these ideas in his sleep😆😆. One thing is for sure most people driving by a rescue operation have no damn idea how much goes into getting a wreck safely cleared and off the road. Glad we have people like Casey working on solutions and practicing this stuff!! We need more people like that doing other important jobs like our gov. Because Casey can’t do everything!!

    As a retired wrecker operator, no one understands how much goes into a recovery. Even when it seems "routine". And they love to complain about how long it takes. Great job with this "experiment".

    • @ClimptonDiddlehopper
      @ClimptonDiddlehopper Місяць тому +1

      I found there is nothing routine about ANY recovery. About the time you get into a "routine" that next recovery is going to knock your balls into the dirt. I did a bunch of stuff in the snow, man you wanna add spice to a recovery go on the snow and ice. Worse yet some idiot breaks through ice on the lake... you are cold, slipping and falling. Now your wet and you just got your gear and winch cable to the Beer delivery truck that rolled into the ditch.

      I doubt this is out of the norm. Heavy wrecker operators use snatch blocks in crazy configs when solo wrecker is used. But it is nice of Casey to talk through so we can see how many things you need to consider in pull like this. Impresive.

    You could clamp a wood block on the outer side of the tire, it would increase the distance. And prevent the fender or rope from taking damage.

    @TRFerron Місяць тому +65

    Saw a german towing company use special swivel hooks mounted in a special 'rim' which they mounted by unscrewing every second screw on the tire and using longer screws. So the line is outside the vehicle when it drops.

      Was that on a light duty application? By screws, I assume you mean wheel bolts, which trucks and almost all vehicles in North America don't have. We use studs which cannot be easily removed roadside. There are a few European cars that have them, but I've never seen them on anything but cars and the odd boat trailer.

    Thank you @CaseyLaDelle for this very detailed, very technical, and very informatively and geeky peek into your thought process. I do towing (yes, even recovery) for the USPS and as huge as our fleet is, we are only ever setup for towing. Recovery is a whole different beast and requires an entirely different mindset and group of tools. Due to our lack of proper equipment, I find myself improvising. Frequently. This vid really helps exercise the alternative thinking we need to do all the time. Keep up the Excellent work and thank you for keeping me thinking.

    Could you place a wooden block on the rim to off set the grab line outboard of the fender? With another 4 inches the grab line may have cleared the fender but adding the block may be more fiddling than its worth?
    Thank you for showing the second iteration of the "whoever thought of it first" technique. I am the farthest thing possible from a recovery person but your explanations are so clear that i think i understand what you are doing well enough to ask questions.
    By the way, thank you for some of the towing tips you showed over the last while, i had occaision to use my pickup to unstuck several vehicles the last snowstorm we had and I would not have been as successful with out the knowledge I've gained watching you.

I feel that it will work fabulously but you will get a little twist on the frame and the ass end will come down a little harder than the front, but it will work. The comments I'm reading tell me I'm probably wrong and that it worked very well according to plan.

    Two suggestions. I don't know how possible they would be but here you are. Could the slight movement the bus does before it gets it bite in the rollback be reduced. And second could a horizontal support be placed on the fender to spread the weight across the body when the truck is back on its wheels but not on the ground yet. Love your video's.

    Didn't you have the snatch blocks on the cab wall in the small tow? Pretty good job! Effective!
    You could have used the front frame spring mount to catch? Try 2 was nice!
