    The 2 Rotators make the work a lot easier. Great video of the first use of 2 rotators.

    That was a major clean up and to see it back in the yard was a surprise guess you gotta put it somewhere! Great camera work and team work! Was cool to see the 5 axle pulling away with the tractor and dump bed! Good job will be looking for the next one! Take care be safe!

      We can easily scoop it back up and reload it onto another trailer when the time comes. When the 65 ton was pulling the tractor trailer, I couldn't even tell it was back there.

      Thanks for the feedback! This has been a focus since the start of the channel. Keep the most important parts in the video, and cut all the unnecessary parts, like walking back and forth from the trucks. Keeping the attention of the viewers is important.

    Outstand Recovery and Video everyone had a job to do and it was done very well ... Zack did a great job with the 50 ton rotator and the both of you did a great job with the nice smooth landing .. At the 29.57 mark that was an interesting tool that you hooked to your boom looks like a Super Duty hinge plate I believe that's the first time I've seen that on your videos does that recovery tool have a name ??? Take care if you're a Dad Happy Father's day

    • @WilcoxGarageRecovery
      @WilcoxGarageRecovery  6 месяцев назад

      Thank you! The piece you are referring to is called the Ketcher Hook. It hooks into the end of the boom and allows for more rigging points by adding up to 3 shackles. This piece is only something used on NRC equipment.

      We do still have it, however it will soon be sold. We will have the 50 and 65 for heavy lifting, towing, and recovery jobs, and then will have 2 tractors with Quickswaps for everyday semi tractor towing. Plus, we are still currently reworking our grandpa's old 27 ton, which will be several months yet til it's operational.

      Thank you! When working a recovery like this the hat mounted camera is the easiest way to capture the most of the recovery. I am not sure why it seemed to have that effect more with this particular video, maybe because of the rain. We recently purchased another newer model of that camera, so hopefully it helps.

      @@wheels351972 We generally stick to slings for aluminum rims, and chain for steel rims. When pulling over on the wheels to do the upright, we chain the suspension so it won't be hyper extended and potentially cause additional damage. We always do a controlled roll / upright as well, so that the unit doesn't come crashing to the ground.
