Hey guys , I used to operate one of those. It’s a 20 ton rough terrain crane. I ran it in Germany in 1969. Had a great driving it on the Autobahn. There is a master clutch on the operators right side near the floor that disconnects the crane from the engine so when you start it nothing is engaged. If you have any questions let me know and I’ll try to remember how everything works for ya.
I knew it was old. they have a commercial crane painted green when I was in the engineer companies, I was in Germany in the 1980's. It did not take much to get them stuck.
You guys are great mechanics! You remind me of my dad. There wasn’t anything that he couldn’t work on and get to running. Anytime, anyone who had problems with their equipment. They always called on my dad. I’ve seen my dad, pour sweat on the side of the road for hours. Working on folks vehicles that he had never met before. If he seen someone stranded he always stopped to lend a hand. I lost my dad on Father’s Day 2005. And the most thing that I remember him for is his gratefulness to others. He would do anything for anyone. Wether he knew you or not. And if they tried to pay him for the work he done. He would not except it. And the ones that told him that they didn’t have any money to pay him. Which he didn’t charge any money anyway. He would tell them to charge it. :) …. I will never forget my dad. Gone…. But, never forgotten!
Thank you for saving her. We had those to load dummy cargo on are FS ( sister ship) of US Army Supply ship from WW-2 Mr. Roberts) Film fame. We had Stevidor come from a near by Guard unit to practice with the double boom on the FS. They set these cranes on dock to load pallets of dummy cargo on board. I remember watching the operator always checking his swing break in the crane cab. Good times back in the very late 1970s. The blade on front of crane, they used to smooth out area for crane set up. Very heavy duty truxk cranes.
I recognize that crane. I worked for a company back in the 90's that thought buying the old army crane was money well spent. LMAO! That is a mid to late 60's American Hoist & Derrick, 20 ton crane. I think it is model 2380 or 3285. I remember it has a V8 265 Cummins on the main power unit and a JN6I 6 cylinder for the crane. It can be quite noisy to operate. It's all mechanical and was very touchy. I was about the only person that would operate it. After I quite working there. The only time is was used, was for crushing 55 gal steel drums with the blade on the front. The master cylinders that operate the levers, were always a problem. If the fluid bypassed the cups, you could drop a load real easy.
5:49 Heavy D honestly has the best job ever. You can tell he takes great pride on what he does. He’s got a great crew whole bunch more. I learn so much from watching his videos. Would love to work with him as well.. definitely my dream job. Keep up the great work Heavy D. God bless
You can get power packs, small electric hydraulic pump to fill or empty cylinders. Then you don't have to worry about using equipment or getting oil contamination
When I was in the Army Reserve (1983 - 1993), the Engineer Battalion (CBT), I was with had one of those parked in the motor pool. There was only one soldier in the whole battalion (a SFC), who was authorized to do anything other than look (from a distance), at, or photograph it. Both cabs had a retrofit that placed locking mechanisms on the doors, and the windows were all in place. Memory Lane. 🙂
There’s a water bottle called cirkul it’s almost the same thing it’s 20$ at Walmart for the starter kit and the flavors are about $4 each. The starter kit comes with 2 flavors and the bottle. You can adjust how much flavor is added and even set it to just plain water.
One thing I really liked about this video, was it got right into the main topic/subject, which was working on the crane, without all the extra video footage of prep at shop, travel time lapse, etc. Short and sweet and to the point!!
HeavyD little by little you are developing a whole construction company that Joh Wayne's Fighting Seabees would get along famously with, all over the world. Creating civilization out of chaos!
Yep a very old school manual/ mechanical crane unit . Those things will work your butt off when you operate them for long. They were made that way to be easier t9 maintain than the equipment we have now!
So close but yet so far! . First time in utah driving with my son, driving to SMCO. saw Heavy D driving a sick ass 6x6....as i pull in Diesel Dave walking in! Just to say Hey! Inspired by you guys keep up the good work!
I knew you guys would get it you got the best group of guys with you. Keep up the amazing work you do; your community must be proud to have you and your team.
Only a guy that straps a lot of heavy equipment down and regularly uses ratchet straps can appreciate exactly how cool that was when Dave executed a perfect toss, slap, and grab WITH a correct safety wrap over the flat hook. 👍🏻😎👍🏻 Your reaction Dave was perfect!!! LMAO!!! 🤣🤣🤣
No, I think any common sense person (although I realize those are in short supply these days) can understand how unlikely and unexpected that was. I had to play it back about 5 or 6 times to see what it was they were talking about, because it was so unlikely, I didn't even notice the strap when it panned to Dave. I was in disbelief when I finally saw what had happened.
Hey, I love what you guys do to help people in need!! It's amazing to see that good people are in this world. Total respect guy.❤ Subscribed and watching from New Zealand
Would love to see a new video of when you build a fire under it and get her running~! A very versatile hunk of iron. Could be money in the bank for helping with big projects!
I once replaced all the clutches on an English machine similar to this. It was powered by a Dorman diesel for both traction (crawler) and crane. No new replacement parts were available so I scoured every wrecking yard and assembled a group of clutch plates and appropriate centres, reassembled them with a couple having to have new facings and it worked until the boss got in and tried to operate it and pulled the boom over vertical.
I’m impressed I operated a army crane 1972 exactly like the one you picked up.. I made a lot of crane lifts with that crane. Ft Eustis, Va 497th Engineer Company Brought back some great memories. I am currently operating a new 300 ton Manitowoc
Midway is such a beautiful place, used to go there as a kid and then snowmobile up in timber lakes. Thanks for the video! Love to watch the startup problem solving and thought that goes into the process.
Retired DAV here.. my MOS 62f was crane operator.. thought it was pretty cool seeing you buying something that I actually have a ton of experience operating.. can't wait to see more of this crane.. which model is it? is it the 2385?
The most impressive part of this move was Dave throwing up the headache ball those things aren't light course he had to have Diesel Dave end the vidg probably cause he was in truck with Ice on the boys 😂😂😂
I've ran a crane like that before too, and would love to come take care of it for you! Worked on them too, adjusting, replacing and fixing clutches. Good Luck, I wish I could run across a deal like that!
model 2380 rough terrain crane. With that 10 foot boom extension, capacity is down to 15 tons. Used one in a floating bridge company, army national guard. You are going to love using a lube order to grease this machine !
Way to go! I knew that y'all would get it moved!!! I'm sure the farmer and neighbors are glad that it's gone.... hope that there isn't too much wrong with the engine. It'll be a great addition to your Big Boy Toys! 🤔🤣👍👍❤️😊 george 😎🤿🦈🐙🇺🇲 TEXAS
@HeavyD, you should hook up with storm chaser PhD Reed Timmer. He had a modified F350 (named the Dominator) with reinforced sheet metal and plexiglass windows. He still has it, but its falling apart. This would be a perfect project for y'all.
Man operate old friction machine crane work of art , had friend we purchased lot Hardox 400 for draglines, Dozer blades , etc he use load our trucks Bucyrus Erie 30B friction crane made look easy pretty amazing.
Hopefully air up makes it to Australia, will give it a try, in the meantime my fav method is carbonated/lightly sparkling soda water squirted with a good amount of concentrated lemon or lime juice - fasting and slow carb/keto approved.
Can you guys start making videos on how you’re fixing up these big tractors and vehicles that you’re recovering and obtaining for free? I would like to see some of these follow up videos on what the status is on these awesome vehicles, you’ve recovered!
great looking crane and usually looking at it,,it probably doesn't have a whole lot of hours on the engine and sometimes fuel in the motor might have been a stuck fuel injector or even a little water from the weather 🤔 maybe??just a thought...but i know you're crew will get it figured out and have it operating soon,,you guys always do great work for your community and surrounding areas..keep making great videos 📹 👍 😀..and you are always concerned about our environment and surrounding...thanks for the video 📹 👍 😀
Congrats on 3 MILLION Bro !! You could become a full-time influencer lololol congrats HeavyD you deserve the honor more than most.. your original content gets you your subs and they stay very loyal 💯 % again because of your content !
@@slynn5138 yeah hes bloody awesome. Puts these videos to shame a bit now. He just got his old grader going today. Had gearbox out to fix clutch. ITs how he explains stuff to. He really knows his shit
I'm so in love with ALL of that heavy equipment!!! I'm not sure why it fascinates me so much, but it just looks like so much freaking fun!!! Now here's the funny part of that! I'm a 65 year old woman!!! 😂😂😂😂
The reason you guys were successful at retrieving it and the other 4 couldn't is because you guys have a professional wizard and they don't. That rig is going to be a great tool if you can get it restored to good working order.
Wow a old Army 20t RT. I learned how to operate that when I joined the army. Buy the way it’s a friction rig not a good idea to just start pushing and pulling levers. Good thing the breaks pedal were engaged on it.
On those older cable rigs they didn't have a power down on the hook line. You just slipped the foot brake. Until you got to a heavy load....then the foot brake was too sudden! Trick#1: Kick the master clutch out, pull the lever into load up, then slip the foot brake. The draw works runs in reverse acting like a governor. Trick #2: On REALLY heavy loads, shut the motor off, leave the master clutch engaged, pull the lever into up and slip the foot brake. The motor compression will act as a further brake. Trick#3: I used to run a 3 part line with the block, that slows it down so It is easier to boom down and winch up to hold the load even. (Old crane operator)
Wondering what your thoughts on WD-40 are. Care to share? I mean, they say there’s 1000 uses for it. Just how many have you tried? Also, what’s the craziest thing you ever used it for? Mine was getting rid of a yellow jacket nest trying to happen in the outside wall of my basement (cinder blocks) by way of of the water spigot at the front of my house. Little bastahds were immune to everything else and I’m allergic. Out of pure desperation I sprayed half a can into the hole they made and watched for 3 days with no visible activity before sealing it up with insulation foam.Did the trick when all the hardware store recommended failed! Haven’t had a problem there since!
I bet you're get that engine going you probably can get $20,000 out of Pat crane I'm just assuming or depends on how much it cost to get the crane going good job diesel Brothers 💪
Another comment would like to make is WISH was with you. I know those Cranes. I can help because they were NEW great shape in are NG unit. We would put them on LCM-8s take them to are training area. So glade you try and save one. They were beast's.

Hydraulic hoses with quick connects for your skid steer or other equipment is worth gold to take up those outriggers without the engine
You can get power packs, small electric hydraulic pump to fill or empty cylinders. Then you don't have to worry about using equipment or getting oil contamination
When I was in the Army Reserve (1983 - 1993), the Engineer Battalion (CBT), I was with had one of those parked in the motor pool.
There was only one soldier in the whole battalion (a SFC), who was authorized to do anything other than look (from a distance), at, or photograph it. Both cabs had a retrofit that placed locking mechanisms on the doors, and the windows were all in place.

The reason you guys were successful at retrieving it and the other 4 couldn't is because you guys have a professional wizard and they don't. That rig is going to be a great tool if you can get it restored to good working order.
Or the fact they have 200k worth of equipment to pull it out....
Wow a old Army 20t RT. I learned how to operate that when I joined the army. Buy the way it’s a friction rig not a good idea to just start pushing and pulling levers. Good thing the breaks pedal were engaged on it.

On those older cable rigs they didn't have a power down on the hook line. You just slipped the foot brake. Until you got to a heavy load....then the foot brake was too sudden!
