    Good Job Blake. Very good tips for people that are not familiar with snatch blocks and loading and unloading cars off a trailer. I agree with you I like chaining a car/truck to the trailer by the frame rather than the tire straps seems like they move around and bounce more with the tire straps. Have a great weekend. God Bless!!!

      nashguy207 The suspension is free riding if the vehicle is only secured at the wheels.

      I'M very well aware of this I have towed many cars over the years.

    Just did this a month or so ago. I have a d ring in the floor of my garage. Perfect to hook a snatch block to

    If the brakes or e brakes dont work I would use a second winch to control the descent offloading the car. Last thing we need is a freerolling car get enough momentum to crash into people or property. Awesome video. Love that you use multiple snatchblock to route the cable away from car. I too love my mini clusters, have one each reel on my wrecker. They save me valuable time on recoveries by many minutes. I carry extra clusters for my personal rigs too with winches.

    Blake as I am sure you already know, you could reposition that rear snatch block with the hook with a chain. You could also replace the hook with a chain, although personally you can never have too many snatch blocks or chains!

    • @GuyinWY
      @GuyinWY  6 лет назад +1

      I could have, I just didn’t feel like setting it up.

    • @coypatton3160

      Guy in WY i knew you knew and understand not wanting to take the time to set it up, but someone out there will not realize it and think it can not be done. Have a great day!

    90 model 4 Runner. Problematic head gasket failure on the drivers side head due to Toyota having a brain fart on the exhaust crossover being behind the block and ying behind the drivers side head which translates in heat soak. How do I know this? I owned a 95 runner with the 3.0 which I loved but after the third headgasket failure it left my life like your New Holland tractor left your life. It now has a new owner who did the headgasket again and put headers on it and has driven it another 70.000 miles without a failure. I could not get 30.000 max out of a driver's side headgasket. The passenger side never failed. Wish I had it back.

    Now that you're headed out to go pick up the truck in Fort Collins don't forget to stop by Ron's equipment off of 287 take a look at the Massey Ferguson's it won't hurt you Intel old Ron that Lee sent you his way!

    @JDT-tk5fu 6 лет назад +1

    I meant to comment on one of the last videos but never did. Any way on the back seat of an 09 chevy you could take the seat loose and cut the hook thats on the seat shorter so that when it goes up it would release itself so that the back would then fold down instead of putting blocks under the seat. Hope I experience explained this good enough. If not the procedure should be on the duramax forum.

    • @GuyinWY
      @GuyinWY  6 лет назад +1

    Did you do this cable method mainly so you could show folks how something like that is done? Because it seems like you could have pretty easily just put the SUV in neutral and got it rolling backwards by hand with the way the trailer was sitting and saved all the extra setup work.

    • @GuyinWY
      @GuyinWY  6 лет назад +3

      Yes, this was mostly for demonstration purposes.

    Mount some 1/2" diameter steel "D" rings on the front and back of the trailer. Never have too many mounted if you move any type of equipment.
    Got a few miles on the new ram: liking it so far?

    To use the snatch block with a chain you will need key holes in the bed.

    • @coypatton3160
      @coypatton3160 6 лет назад +1

      Charles Kettering you can always run you chain to the stake pockets on the outside of the bed of the trailer. A loop through the stake pocket and hooked to the chain will control the length of your chain and placement of the snatch block. Keyholes are very nice, but there are ways to work around not having them.

    Would this method work for a car with no brakes? Also if the car rolled too far back wouldn't it yank on the winch too much?

    • @GuyinWY
      @GuyinWY  6 лет назад +3

      I've been doing this for a while, just haven't talked about it. Ram is around 2400 miles right now.

      I used this system way back in the 1980's to unload boats off their trailer. A friend of mine had a rotator since around 1987.

    • @jacksak
      @jacksak 6 лет назад +2

      Charles Kettering: I'm guessing most people who work with heavy loads know how to use pulleys, winches, block & tackle, ropes/chains, etc. You go back to the 80's. For me, I go back as a kid to the 1940's growing up on a dairy farm and sawmill/logging operation where my grandfather often used these tools. Back then I became fascinated with this stuff, still am...

    Get a winch with power out

    • @GuyinWY
      @GuyinWY  6 лет назад +1

      Mine has power out.

    • @505fastlife6
      @505fastlife6 5 месяцев назад

      If your winch has power out why would you choose to use this method?

    • @tjfortin2227
      @tjfortin2227 28 дней назад

      Power out won't "push" the vehicle to get it started rolling. Its a flexible cable it can't push, it can only hold tight and slowly let it out once already going down hill. If the trailer was on a hill / enough grade to get the vehicle to roll on its own then this would work to aid in it slowly descending only. It can never "push", only pull and when in reverse, "unwind".
