Semi bottoms are the best, most efficient way to lay base rock down. That is some beautiful country there, I love those kinds of jobs! Gotta do those pre trip inspections at least once a week for cracks in the suspension and undercarriage. Sling that rock! 💪👊🤙
swn02 I like those 3 Axle Scannia Conventionals. If I bought a foreign Truck it would be one of them, but I don’t think they make them anymore. I can see Europe having Cabovers, but NZ Roads aren’t that tight, are they?
Hey Jeff, "Paperwork" love your sense of humour, great to see that 352 working, when i was looking to buy my first semi i looked at one that somebody had imported from the USA to here in the Uk. but decided against it because i was worried about getting parts for it in UK wish i knew then what i know now! still kick myself for not buying it LOL! stay safe. Pat. Scarborough. North Yorkshire UK.
I've been very glad having the use of the Blue Room. The paper work never bothered me either. Thank you for sharing your latest adventure. Excellent as always Jeff.
I love your videos I ran heavy equipment for 32 years building roads from city streets to interstates,hospitals,schools,subdivisions and automoble factories hear in Indiana I sure do miss it always enjoyed the fact there is things that I helped build that will be there for generations
I like that old 352 cabover. Those old Challenge-Cook Bros bottom dumps don't look bad for their age...at least 35 years! Your Load King is a Cadillac, though.
I really love seeing the waterfalls and the nature that you show, thank you very much. Also great music with your videos, you keep showing us stuff like this and I'll keep watching....
I agree best job ever!! That blue office space you rented to file all that paperwork should get you a nice deduction on your taxes:) Thanks for sharing Jpay!
Awesome video! Love the old cab-over pete! It's funny how people never want to pay for decent roads and then they are the first to complain about the washboarding the next summer... and then dox the blade operator as having done a bad job. Looks fun, though! The job you do is great as always! I have the same silver and blue CAT hat you got sent, love it! Thanks for another cool upload!!
Thank you Jeff. Let snow let snow. A extra truck to haul and give a trucker more work nice. Nice drone footage of the camp ground. Nice footage of the area close to where are working. Edit: Nice looking cabover.
I was homesick for a remote job while I was watching this. Good times. We never had a “shack” like the one you had but we did have a hot tub made out of a black Ford 3/4 ton, plastic sheeting and filled with the water truck. After sitting in the sun all day, it was tolerable.
You poor lad! ☻ well I felt pretty lucky, everything lined up good, somehow i got my ducks to line up, a feat that normally has the same chances of winning the lottery
Glad ur back Jeff , that is beautiful country up there where you was working and staying...!!! Would love to go there next spring and stay a couple weeks and do some fishing...!!! That is a good idea with your CAT decal , can't wait to see the finish product...!!! Catch ya on the next video brother...!!! Take care and God Bless...!!!
When I was working I loved doing these type of jobs for the USFS. But I had cross drains about every 200'-400' and heavy timber/brush on 98% of the job (both sides of road)....and roads up to 13-14 % grade, although rarely. Usually steepest grades were 8% and under. Great jobs, alone in nature with no one but the occasional car, ....fun projects. 2006 Volvo L70E brochure says 2.4 cu.m. = 3.07cu.yds. If bucket is heaped to 110% maximum capacity = 3.38 cu. yds. (this is loose yards which converts to....4 3/4" thickness = 4" compacation (1 3/16" compacts to 1") for chert base rock, with up to 18% of material passing the 200 sieve (all 1 1/2" minus). Probably about the same as your material (I placed 7.25" for 6" compacted thickness which is usually what the contracts were). This is all my 'redneck southern math', (47 years contracting) "your mileage may vary"...lol ....13
Great video bro, yeah that back woods shack you stayed in had some homely features for sure. Still getting snow and frosts here in NZ yet summer is not far off. All the best
Our L70 at work takes 8 buckets to load 26t of river shingle onto our 3 axle truck and 4 axle trailer trailer rigs, so between 3 and 3 1/2t per bucket, about 13 cu metres.
Hello... I´ll try to help you. The Volvo number on the loader indicate the tipping load in metric tonnes. So the L 70 have a tipping load of 7 tonne. i guess that it takes about three tonnes in the bucket (metric) On the excevators the number indicate machine weight. in metric tonnes.
Hi J Paytor im from Sandown,on the Isle of Wight ,one of my buddies has several vintage cats that ive worked on D2S ,D4,D6,D7and a D8 all 1940s im in the uk keep up the good work an love watching your vids regards ashley wallis
You painted that old 352 Pete cabover bout same lines and a deep red and cream tinged white threw theil live stock on the door that would be the first truck I would have ridden in only to get totally addicted, big Joe Sanders was the driver and a fella named Tim Ketchum drove the sister truck to it ... Which was a freightliner cabover but same paint scheme.. Nyssa Idaho I think was the roost....
Absolutely Deplorable Living Conditions!! Don’t know how you do it. Jeff, if you could have one Brand new pieces CAT equipment, what would it be?? Love seeing that ole Cabover Pete still going strong.
Thanks for the great video mate , that campground must be costing a mint, just getting the materials delivered there would be costly, good to see your still talking to yourself in portable dunnys and laughing out loud at your own jokes , imagine if some poor soul finally made it to the most isolated toilet in the USA ,only to hear talking and laughing coming from inside ,it surely would make a awkward moment when you came out. Cheers, Noel from twin waters (so good they named it twice) down under.
That room looks pretty plush, do you have info on it? Might be a nice place to be 'stranded' with the better half for a weekend or so... That snow seems way to early...
Every time I see you fall off that track on the intro I grimace. Ouch! Did you go and get yourself a COE!?? Wow, that place is picturesque! Looks like a postcard! Surely you mean vAAlvo, right? lol! The blue room... I was holding my breath during your paperwork. Thanks for the video!
Andrew Elliot from Stoney Creek Ontario Canada here - I know you are all about the CAT Diesels, but I came to your channel for the Big Block Mopar Stroker Challenger - what's up with it?
OMG... Jeff, you will LOVE this one!! I've got about 25?? 30?? Friends that we all pass jokes and such around on messenger. Today, in the middle of sharing some of the such... My phone freezes up, messanger says my session has timed out.. WTH!!??? I spend a half hour resetting everything for Facebook and messanger... Seems Facebook didn't think that I, of all people... Would have actually liked your page. LMAO!!! That was one of the ten reasons they froze my account. All ten things I did actually either do, or liked. Thank God RUclips doesn't pull that crap!! Thought you might get a little chuckle out of that.... Nice looking job BTW! Now finish up that paperwork!!! And don't forget under your finger nail 😎😂
GREAT VIDEO I loved the blue room where is the truck calendar with the girls I like that Cab Over Rolling coal it has always been a dream of mine to have a big shop to restore old trucks and tractors I guess that is why I went to tech school forty yrs ago now all I've got to do now is finish raising grandchildren and win the lotto wish me luck many thank's
Good morning Jeff, now your vacation is coming to an end !!!! You will have to start proper work elsewhere and perhaps with a blue room or without!! Take care and catch you next time 😎👍🇬🇧.
Good morning Jeff, if you want any blue roll shipped over let me know Ha Ha !! Busy shunting trailers at the World’s No1 chocolate 🍫 factory Cadburys. Hope Mrs Jpaydirt enjoyed the break too. Take care and once again thank you for the videos.😎👍🇬🇧.
I asked one time before and perhaps you have answered and I missed it, what is the drone you're using? Watching you has convinced me that maybe I could do it too. Don't know how many times I've made that mistake, thinking, "If he can do it so can I." Any help will be appreciated.
J. Paydirt , Comming To You Live And Direct From The Blue Room !!! ( The People In Rio Linda Think It's A New Bar Or Something )... Only Jeff Could Think Of This !!!! No Sound Effects ??? Whats Next ? Maybe The Cover Of Porta Dumper Magazine " When I First Saw The Blue Plastic I Almost Sprayed My Desk With Ice Tea !!!! What A Great Channel You Have !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My brother drives a new T880 Kenworth 8-axle transfer dump out of Belfair, WA, east of Seattle. He can legally haul 31.5 tons grossing out at 105,500. I drive a 2013 Peterbilt 5-axle Rogue transfer in Southern California. I can haul 26.3 tons grossing 80,000.
Hi Jeff. my name is Garry. from England. Now you is home how bout some paint on the lowloader. An yes it needs it.Then you can use a lot of those CAT decals/stickers all over it.Thanks for the time put in again.

How do I get a job with you guys?
Semi bottoms are the best, most efficient way to lay base rock down. That is some beautiful country there, I love those kinds of jobs! Gotta do those pre trip inspections at least once a week for cracks in the suspension and undercarriage. Sling that rock! 💪👊🤙
even though the scenery looks vaguely familiar it definitely helped calm the jpaydirt withdrawals! ;-)
I'm glad to see someone still loves the cabover...
I love watching your show Jeff i am from st George Queensland Australia
When I started driving trucks, they were all cab-overs. Early '80's Freightliners, some Kenworths.
come to NZ cab overs everywhere
swn02 I like those 3 Axle Scannia Conventionals. If I bought a foreign Truck it would be one of them, but I don’t think they make them anymore. I can see Europe having Cabovers, but NZ Roads aren’t that tight, are they?
@@Len_M. yeah some can be a bit tight, so it does limit some trucks, but those 4 axle trailers have the last axle as a steer
Some with two steering axles, I hear.
Hey Jeff, "Paperwork" love your sense of humour, great to see that 352 working, when i was looking to buy my first semi i looked at one that somebody had imported from the USA to here in the Uk. but decided against it because i was worried about getting parts for it in UK wish i knew then what i know now! still kick myself for not buying it LOL! stay safe.

I sure miss the lovely ladies you formerly started your vids with.

That old cab over takes me back to the 1970s wow love it .
I like that cabover, Holmes....

We love the cab over … I drove the KW100 a 1975 with a reefer
Pretty cool to see an old 352 still working every day.
I was homesick for a remote job while I was watching this. Good times. We never had a “shack” like the one you had but we did have a hot tub made out of a black Ford 3/4 ton, plastic sheeting and filled with the water truck. After sitting in the sun all day, it was tolerable.

Liked the video Jeff.Beautiful country.Old cabover Pete still going making money.Make sure you don't get behind on your paperwork.
Oh no, never get BEHIND☻ in my paperwork
I love the lines from Fargo. That guy is one of my favorite parts of the movie. End a story.
Soooo I Called it in.......................

Have seen a lot of cab overs lately in the Central Texas area. Nice seeing them on the road again!

Another great video! You can keep that snow! The paperwork part cracked my up! Lol
Great video bro, yeah that back woods shack you stayed in had some homely features for sure. Still getting snow and frosts here in NZ yet summer is not far off. All the best
Great video with some great scenery‼️ Sorry you had to stay in those terrible conditions lol‼️ Take care and we'll be watching❗️❤️

That was a great video.What a great place to work.Never been to Idaho,now I want to go.Thanks.

Should be a metal tag on the back side of the bucket that tells you what capacity it is
wow that place is beautiful.
Looks like the Volvo L70 has a 3 yd. bucket there, Jeff. If he's doin' 6 scoops, you're gettin' purt-near 18 yds in them bellies!
Ill be heading to Yellowstone next year. Might have to check that RV lot out!!
Hi J Paytor im from Sandown,on the Isle of Wight ,one of my buddies has several vintage cats that ive worked on D2S ,D4,D6,D7and a D8 all 1940s im in the uk keep up the good work an love watching your vids regards ashley wallis
Great video Jeff I have a soft spot for the old cab overs glad the job went well have a good day be safe.
Pat is my wife and we both drove the KENWORTH I mentioned in one of my other comments... we both live in SAINT CLAIR, MO.
Bucket Capacity - heaped
3.3 yds X 6 = 19.80 yards that comes out to about 20 yards!!!
Pulled a lot of belly dump on Oahu. Makes basing roadbed easy for the blade man.
Gotta get that paperwork done in a most timely manner to avoid problems! :-)
Another great video. Scenery was beautiful. Keep making awesome videos for your awesome subscribers!!!
Great video as usual dude. With that scenery looks like a cool place to work. Great job👍
Yo!
The L70 normaly have bucket size around 2- 2,5m3 or 2,6-3,3yd3
Great vidz as always.
That plate could've come from a police vehicle, Maui County Police, bet you got that from Russell, enjoyed the road base job!
According to Volvo, the spec is 1.5 to 1.8 cubic meters, which in North America translates to
1.96 to 2.35 cubic yards.
The drone footage is Awesome 😎
So you run equipment, drive trucks, make good videos, take purdy photos, is there anything much you don't do Jeff?
Clean the house,
You painted that old 352 Pete cabover bout same lines and a deep red and cream tinged white threw theil live stock on the door that would be the first truck I would have ridden in only to get totally addicted, big Joe Sanders was the driver and a fella named Tim Ketchum drove the sister truck to it ... Which was a freightliner cabover but same paint scheme.. Nyssa Idaho I think was the roost....
Looks like it was no short haul bringing that gravel in.
L70 wheel loader should have roughly 3.3 yard capacity heaped, if that helps
The Volvo L70 buckets range from 2.4 to 8.4 cubic yards according to the Volvo equipment web site
Nice work & that's a cool old Peterbilt cabover
Love an ol cabover!!!!
Jeff 2.7 cubic yards I
Times 6 scoops, it equals 16.2 cubic yards
Absolutely Deplorable Living Conditions!! Don’t know how you do it. Jeff, if you could have one Brand new pieces CAT equipment, what would it be?? Love seeing that ole Cabover Pete still going strong.
A D6T
Enjoyed the scenery, nice location to work!
That be some purty country !
Hey, did that kind gentleman happen to say what kind of fish is in the lake ?
Thanks for sharing and take care. 👍
Big ass trout, all I caught was a corn fed german brown LOL
"Blue room"! Lol
352, 86inch model. Drove one with a 350 Cummins and a12513 and sqhd. Long time ago.
Man that's beautiful country you're the best love your videos

Country music does not need screaming guitars. Sound like a hormone riddled teen ager.
How many man hours were figured to powerwash the equipment after this muddy adventure? Great Video as always Jpaydirt!
What the hell is the Long Reach doing in that RV Park
Love ya channel...Ken Gibbs New South Wales Australia...
That room looks pretty plush, do you have info on it? Might be a nice place to be 'stranded' with the better half for a weekend or so... That snow seems way to early...

OMG... Jeff, you will LOVE this one!!
I've got about 25?? 30?? Friends that we all pass jokes and such around on messenger. Today, in the middle of sharing some of the such... My phone freezes up, messanger says my session has timed out.. WTH!!???

Looks like beautiful country
Nice, so much suffering, but you took it with style

Noticed the other bottom dumps were tri- axles
You have a tandem...

I got paid the same as the three axle ones, so no☻
My brother drives a new T880 Kenworth 8-axle transfer dump out of Belfair, WA, east of Seattle. He can legally haul 31.5 tons grossing out at 105,500. I drive a 2013 Peterbilt 5-axle Rogue transfer in Southern California. I can haul 26.3 tons grossing 80,000.
Belfair is actually SW of Seattle
2.5 at the most of gravel cause your not gonna heap like mulch.....
you must hate those shacks from Newfoundland Canada
Reporting to you from undisclosed location we'll just call it the Blue Room
I looked at a l70 with a 3.3yd3 for sale on the internet...
Great to see a new story Jeff, Hey those new tires on the grader do they have good grip ?
Yup, kinda like a Rough Rider LOL
Make sure if you in a blue room that has a fresh clean out make sure put paper down so Get that and water splashing up on you
Hi Jeff. my name is Garry. from England. Now you is home how bout some paint on the lowloader. An yes it needs it.Then you can use a lot of those CAT decals/stickers all over it.Thanks for the time put in again.

Was that Jerry Reed drivin' that cabover Pete?
Beautiful area.

They must not want too many customers...you have to want to get out there.
Love the video Jeff and paper bleu house to.
