A local equipment company needed some help getting one of their rental machines to a mountain top ski resort, so we pulled the @zackliftinternational4841 off of the Western Star and hooked it up to the @trail-ezetrailers5661 lowboy instead. We got the machine loaded up, then headed up the mountain in some really bad road conditions, but luckily the @onspotnorthamerica22 auto chains made getting up and down the mountain no problem!

Cast your votes! Did Nik’s truck really break down, or did he just not want to get his polished and fancy Peterbilt dirty on the mountain?? 😂
Scheduled regen.
Well if you can keep your truck out of the snow and ice then one should do so at all cost. Weigh your options and chose carefully. Clearly he made the right choice , especially now he will know that Casey has a fancy undercarriage washer for his truck! LOL ....
I think he didn’t want to get his fancy truck dirty
Is there a reason so many American low-loaders use a drop neck instead of rear ramps? Almost all low loaders in Australia load over the rear (I think I've only seen one drop neck here, ever) so you don't need to detach the prime mover. It makes for faster, easier loading.
Are you sure you can’t Regen the truck while driving. The Peterbilt 579, Kenworth T680 and Isuzu NPR could as long as you were driving over 35 mph for about 30 min.
The sprinkler at the end is pure absolute genius
I have had my tractor since the 80’s and it still works every summer
I do the same thing with my boat trailer, after launching my boat in Salt water.
We do that to everything when we get home from the Bonneville Salt Flats. The street looks like a snowstorm afterwards.
Works on muddy 4x4's too.
I live in Michigan where we salt the roads.. That idea made me go "Whoahhh.. Brilliant!"
Casey you' re an absolute hoot when your wicked side comes out and a genius with that sprinkler trick. Great video keep' em comin.
Your truck looks naked without the Zack lift on it. The sprinkler thing is genius!
as for putting the Subaru into a snow bank it is educational and FUN to watch in so many ways.
😂😂😂😂😂 It is better than a Subaru accordion!!!
Would have been funny if Casey got the call to rescue the subaru from the snowbank.
I would think, that if one did that, there might be a stay in the grey bar hotel and thin the wallet.
Also after seeing so many videos with the Zacklift on the western star the truck looks a bit odd when you detach the wrecker body. 99% of the time i see a bobtail rig its a standard freightliner or day cab that pulls a 53ft box style trailer or flatbed, but seeing yours with nothing attached is odd to me at first buy then i remember you bought that truck with the wrecker body in mind and it all makes sense
Your ability to backup and control trailers or insert vehicles through tight shop doors is awesome! Always love seeing the sprinkler cleaning the bottom of the truck and I wish I had known the sprinkler trick when I was young and mucking off the bottom of tractors!!!
I bet that Subaru saw those spikes on the wheels and backed off.
The Zacklift just comes off like that? That's amazing. That and a thousand other well thought out features. No wonder you were so excited to get it, and have been like boys with toys ever since.
Simple stuff for you seems complicated to those of us who haven't done it. Pulling off the ZakLift and getting the trailer adjusted and hooked up properly certainly is important. Making sure big equipment is secured properly for safety reasons for you and those on the road. Glad you do it right and are safe out there.
Dont forget to lube with grease the places you didnt grease when maintenace time!!! Love toe videos!!
I was thinking that as well. 😂 (But since he has already shared a short with the new bumper on the front, I think this was filmed a bit ago and is too late of a reminder.)
I remember when the "Lull" or telehandlers 1st hit construction sites, and man, they have just gotten so much better. Amazing machines with way more options these days.
So useful for so many things. If you have one piece of equipment that's the one to have.
A Lull got me a job over 30 years ago. The previous mechanic was ordered by the shop manager to do some work on one at a jobsite and it fell and injured him. Idiot manager should have been fired, but we figured he knew where something was buried.
In at least 1 way, the Lull is still superior. The traveling carriage is sweet for its ability to travel forward level with the frame of the tractor. It's really nice when you're picking a load off scaffolding or unloading a semi.
My slack adjuster is properly mounted and secured. Not cracked, broken or missing. and has no more than one inch of free play... Or at least that's what the DMV wants our students to say on the pre trip test...
playing with water is FUN no matter what age you are.
The sprinkler is absolutely pure genius. I had a boat trailer that had cleanout ports but that's just so simple that it likely works great. Another example of working smart NOT hard. Re the Sub. Good for you. I watched a Cadillac that just had to pass me... bounce off the guardrail. Oh darn !
I had a land yacht just beside himself on a mountain road going from Southern to Northern California. So I'm driving an Army 7-ton fuel tanker, and if you've ever seen military vehicles, they have massive bumpers on the front, and most of them have proportionally massive winches. At least this one did. So he finally spies an opening, shoves 500 cid, 400 hp into a lower gear, zooms around and jumps in front of me, only to have to slam on the brakes to keep from rear-ending the slower produce truck in front of me. That big an engine and drum brakes on a winding mountain road - perfect. Those things were used at Indy as pace cars, but they didn't have to do that kind of braking. He fish-tailed for a good several hundred feet before he got it under control. I'll give him credit for that, but there he was, inches from that monster in front of him, and inches from my bumper that probably weighed as much as his Eldo in back of him. I hoped he crapped himself and had to stew in it for the next hour.
There're times I think a ride along in a big truck would be a useful educational experience as part of drivers ed. I spent the summer after graduating highschool loading moving trucks. They felt even more ponderous from the passenger seat than they looked driving past them in my car. It also made clear how massive the blind spots were.
I have a real problem with Tailgaters. I used to play a game on the interstate called "how slow will they go?" I just slowly let up on the gas without braking. My lowest score was 35...in a 65. I didn't feel safe at that point and put on my flashers at which point they wized up and passed me. There was no one in the other lane the entire time.
Love the sprinkler idea, when you first showed it. Still think the truck needs some red, black and grey, that would look awesome.
Good morning Casey people need to learn that Truckers leave space so they have room to stop if they need it because they can't stop fast like regular vehicles can. The sprinkler is definitely a genius idea for sure and saves time
Doesn’t mean you should push them in the ditch like Casey said. People are always gonna pass the big truck. There’s a difference between cutting someone off and break checking and someone who’s driving faster than the truck and is just passing to get in front. By the time they pass they should be well ahead and if you’re so worried about your stopping zone, just back off a bit then. Takes patience to drive truck. Saying things like “I’ll just put him in the ditch if he’s going to pass me” is just immature, people like that don’t need to be driving a big truck let alone any vehicle
Yeah like the tank truck that passed me last night with cars coming
@@calvinroberts7496 Sometimes you've got to do what you need to to keep yourself and the other person safe. Its part of defensive driving. And hopefully the other person learns in the meantime.
@@georgevindo yes don’t worry I totally agree with you but pushing another car into a snowy ditch with your trailer or truck is not defensive and unsafe for the person in the car.
Give the trucks room, if they need to get around you,, slow down and help them.@@brianstevens2327
That dumb look on a Ski Bums face after they launch into a snowbank is priceless 😂
Nik didn't want to go play in the snow❄☃❄ Love the tractor wash!🚜💧💧💧 Rusty will have FUN chasing it this summer!🌞 Mrs G
oh that new heavy duty bumper looks amazing Casey! Can't wait to se ethat on the truck! Telehandlers just seem to rad. I agree Eathon Casey's back up skills are amazing!
That sprinkler's like a dishwasher, but for trucks!
Absolutely in love with this set up!!!!
Casey done hit that Genius level with the lawn sprinkler tractor,
0:55 - Next ZakLift accessory - Air powered jack Legs for the front legs
Gooooood morning Casey! The fun just never ends! I like the undercarriage washer, who ever invented that is brilliant. Thanks for taking us along and thumbs UP!👍
And an Edison Motors sweatshirt ! Excellent! Nice video, thanks all
That was very interesting to watch you cope with everything going on.
My brother has a term he uses for Subaru drivers here - and sadly, about 99 percent of them earn that name! I'm super cautious about the space in front of large rigs because I know how much I need the space in front of my RV when I'm out and about, and too many people just don't get it. I think some of them are the same ones that will dart across train tracks right in front of the train, then wonder why the engineer gets pissed like they do. Love the use of the traveling yard sprinkler to rinse the bottom of the truck!!
glad they have you to help. thanks for another fun video. :)
As you know, the prep work for the next job is always needed. So that your rig will be in top condition when you need it most. Thanks for reminding us of that, as not many car owner do what they should do to keep themselves and their loved ones safe inside a checked and maintained vehicle. Laziness kills, I have seen it so many times inspecting accidents in the past. Keep safe!
This has become my favorite KZhead channel end of story! It’s motivated me to make videos of my day to day salvage towing adventures, I don’t think it will garner much interest but for me it will be fun documenting my growth!
Laziness is best known for emptying wallets when a simple oil change turns into an expensive engine or trans rebuild. And then there is ...
@@InfamyAutoTowing Will look for your site.
@@bobbyt2657 thank you man it’s going to be under this handle
@@InfamyAutoTowing It's interesting to watch ... hope more subscribe to you.
Sprinkler is so cool! I used to have to wash Willamette clay off my trucks every week. I used a pump up garden sprayer to pre-soak everything with soap and water solution. Then I figured out I could attach a quick connect air fitting to it, and never pump again. Turned out to be a great timesaver! 😊
I don't care what anybody says, but that undercarriage wash idea is nothing short of BRILLIANT!!!
Wow That's was Awesome unhooking ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I made a little drive thru under wash station at my house next to my shop that I drive over. I dug a trench about 2' wide and 18" deep and 10' long and I filled it with concrete with a steel 8" wide channel drain set in the concrete and I put down gravel on either side of it. I took a piece of pipe and drilled a bunch of holes and used a couple U bolts to attach the pipe to the underside of the drain grate. I already had a home made 10hp electric pressure washer inside my shop so I connected it to the spray bar and found a cheap homelink remote receiver from ebay and wired it into the pressure washer to turn it on. When I get home I hit my homelink button or the extra button on my gate opener remote and I drive over my under side wash station.
Love the shirt! Someday you’ll get a diesel extended range setup that won’t have to roadside regen
Casey, you make it happen great work. I watch a lot of your videos.
That lawn sprinkler looks like it works the way a pot scrubber dishwasher gets the job done!
Used to do the sprinkler thing with my 4x4's after mudding. Pretty good time saver.
I might have to get one of those sprinkler deals. That would make inspecting trucks a lot more fun and probably more effective this time of year. I'd much rather have cleanish water drip on me than salty slush and mud. You can only get so much from the outside with the pressure washer.
I am STILL amazed at just how quickly the Zacklift comes off!
What a cool way to flush the underside. I would think if you deliberately "put him into the snowbank," there might be some time in the gray bar hotel in the offing and some thinning of the wallet.
I like the hooded sweatshirt from Edison Motors!
Casey, you have all these videos over in playlists I never knew existed lol. Now I’m binge watching, you’re welcome 😂
You should have a release form that says "if you can not record what you did, the customer assumes all liability for damages"
Nifty way to use a sprinkler!
That big white truck is beautyful on Its own but the Zack lift makes it look so good.❤
Great video, awesome with sprinkler
Thanks. You never fail to entertain and teach at the same time. Love the lawn tractor idea!
the idea of using garden sprinklers to clean the salt from the bottom of the truck... mcguiver strikes again hahaha, a simple and effective idea that I don't think many people would think of.
That sprinkler is the best trick ever plus itdoes a great job of cleaning the truck!
Great work, before rinsing the frame spray on some Eastwoods salt neutralizer it works
That trailer is awesome.. Of course you know that lol
Never knew the wrecker part could just come off like that. Pure genius so you can use your truck for multiple things.
Exactly, savings having the cost, insurance, and registration of a second truck, and keeps the truck from being tied to only one income source
Lol i use to drive for an equipment rental company and we use to do the same. In some situations its cheaper subbing it out than risking it with your own driver and truck.
When the regen light comes on, if possible to keep at a constant speed, should do the Regen rolling. Yes, the lights will come on, wait 20 minutes or so if rolling steady, should do the Regen rolling.
Not possible
I had to try to figure out your response "not possible", but think I figured it out due to the mountains, it's impossible to maintain a constant speed for 20 minutes??
@@scottsmith1569 correct.
Are all of your regens stationary? Why can they not be on-the-go like light duty diesel trucks?
This is only the second time this truck has done a stationary one. It probably would have done it while pulling that hill, but I didn’t want to risk a derate in those conditions, so I did it ahead of time
Would never have thought of the sprinkler idea here all these years I tried from top and bottom with pressure washer and got blasted and soaked
Casey, let me introduce you to a product called NHOU oil undercoating, Sometime later this Spring or summer when your truck frame and underbelly is clean and dry, you spray this product on all over and it will keep things in Tip top shape, no rust.
We don’t have rust here
Casey, my wife says you should paint the low bed hauler RED. I Never miss a video. From 🇨🇦
I was just thinking the same thing. Perfect summer project.
He’s said he’s not going to paint it because of the conditions that it’s used in
@@JohnHallgren Yes, I know I saw the video, but my wife said it will still look good in red
@@JohnHallgren you don’t have to answer every question for me…
@@CaseyLaDelle I am sorry..,was just trying to be a good subscriber who helps provide answers to others. It’s something that I am appreciated for on two other channels. Since i realize you have limited time to reply to similar questions.
Your trailer backing skills are ten times better than me. Good job
I had no idea the wrecker bed comes off like that. So cool keep up the great work love all your videos
I love how everybody's been using the sprinkler tractor to wash the underside of so many vehicles I don't think I can believe a tenth of them that's a awesome idea and I can admit I never thought of doing such thing
I'm glad to know that I'm not the only one who uses the tractor sprinkler like this
I live in St Louis Missouri the Rust Belt and I tell people constantly to stop at a car wash that has undercarriage spray or get in there with the power washer yourself and get as much of the undercarriage as you can it will make your car last so much longer
If Ethan had his CDL and Casey had a couple of forklifts (small-ish fork lift and a heavy duty telehandler with a set of counter weights), Casey could start an industrial moving channel supplementing his towing work. And we could see the Zaklift and that awesome rollback in action working together on videos.
Then he'd have to clone himself to get everything done.
That trailer is so cool
Always cool to see the Zacklift detaching/attaching! 👍
This trailer, Zacklift & truck set-up has given you incredible flexibility. Good thing with so little snow this year - timing couldn't have been better.
Makes me miss playing with my.. Tonkas
Now that the wrecker is off time for maintenance to get to the Adams you couldn't reach before
Great idea!👍🏽😀❤️🇺🇸
Smart using Nate and his pickup for the driveby shot.
You sure earned your money on this one! Zack Lift should buy copies of the video for advertising purposes. Stay safe sir.
Fun interaction with Nick! Some education on Brakes and a great finish with the tractor wash!
Good job there,.....stay safe
Here I come from an Edison Trucks video on them chaining up and pointing out the brake adjustment sign at the hill then Casey is like, "Well, might as well adjust my brakes if I'm here! Here's more!" lol
Darn you zacklift for making a too easy to use product.
Exactly!
You make that look so easy. I cannot back my SUV 1/4 mile down my dirt road.
Great job guys. Thank you 😊
If I ever moved to snow country, I'll have to remember that sprinkler wash trick for the vehicle underside. Cool move Casey.
So Wise , Thank You .
I always enjoy your work you have a very strong work ethic. While you make so many things look simple, most of us couldn’t do half of what you do. Your community service work is commendable and always a joy to watch. Your equipment is always clean and shiny except for that yellow trailer, please paint it so it will be brought up to your standards. Clean well kept equipment has always seemed to be your trade mark and such equipment says a lot about your work too, so time to bring the yellow trailer up to your standards and bring confidence to your customers about your work and equipment always looking their best. Sorry if I ranted a bit but just had to say what I think every time you use that trailer.
That you have the Zacklift and a lowboy helps .. As for the undercarriage washer ... pour some dial soap in the hose ... first you get it dial clean and then rinsed !!
they make soap dispensers that screw in between hoses. He could use one of those
Dial is dish soap right? Dish soap here has too much salt to use on vehicles, just get a cheap wash and rinse
@@1988dgs never heard that before. But theoretically you could put any sort of cleaning additive. It's just a container that screws in between two hoses
@@1988dgs Can you recommend another soap .. and my idea was for one to run a second pass when the soap has cleared out to wash off the soap ..
Casey your equipment is so versatile. I really enjoyed the photography. Well done Ethan.
i love that trailer system
good job!
Love that tractor sprinkler 😊
Sprinkler is priceless!
Ethan those telehandlers are super easy to drive. If you can drive a tractor you can drive one of those. The only "difficult" part is learning to properly use the forks and boom, but that just comes with practice. Those were the first heavy machines that I leaned how to drive, and boy have we done some sketchy shit with them lol
Sounds a bit familiar....🤔
Great job! That sprinkler is an excellent idea!!!
Great video
Looks like it warmed up!
that tow bed is fing amazing!!!!!!!!!!
The tractor wash was idea was on another level.
sprinkler was a good idea
Pretty cool.. thanks for the video
Awesome video! The sprinkler is the best! 😊 Thanks for sharing! 😊
Yes, your insurance requires you to take videos. Thats what you tell the next person. Great delivery on such a nice day ! wowzer
There's a lot of guys digging through there shops right now looking for there sprinkler. Great idea 👍
I enjoy watching your videos. You always have such a good attitude even when things go wrong.
