- Today is random project day, and the first time that my @harborfreight Badlands off road jack made it on camera.
I gotta say, it’s worth every penny and an absolute tank. But if you really want to see a great video about this jack, go check out @DirtLifestyle where Nate does an awesome job going over the details and putting it to the test!

Another quality idea stolen from a small American business by the crack engineering team at HF. Can't wait until they release kinetic ropes and knock off the Yankum fairlead all the HF and Yankum sponsored youtubers heads might explode with the conundrum.
You mean the Pro Eagle jack that’s made in Taiwan??
Oh, and since Harbor Freight and Yankum already sell competing products… Why would that all of a sudden be an issue??
Here’s a fun fact that YOU really need to learn. Just because two businesses are in the same market, doesn’t mean that they have to hate each other. Both Yankum and Harbor Freight are well aware that we use one product from one, and another product from the other, and are perfectly ok with that. The Yankum Jeep even runs an Apex winch that was gifted to them by Harbor Freight.
You’re just still upset because I wouldn’t make a video promoting your product (that in itself is a copy of others already on the market) and I have the screenshots of you saying you were going to purposely run my name down as publicity as you could because of it.
Do you want me to post them?? Because if you want to start battle here, I’m all for it!
@Casey LaDelle I don't have time for this, but I really couldn't care less you didn't want my product. I know you are really stuck on that but it truly doesn't matter to me. I am an adult and it is business. I haven't even barely marketed that product because the margins would suck so bad on its as a small business its not even worth it. I actually had zero issues with you. I said i chose not to watch your videos anymore and you brought a personal coversation public so, like I said i am now going to call you out on your ridiculousness. It is about your ridiculous Fandom of a company that as far as I can tell, entire business model is just stealing ideas from American business and knocking them off at a price where small business cannot compete. I have a great video idea for you. Go I to a Harbor Freight and find me one HG branded product that is an original idea and not a straight knock off. There may be one and if there is, kudos to them. I
@@allenhuskey8541 you don’t have time, but yet here yard still whining and complaining….
@@allenhuskey8541 what product are you talking about that you don’t feel like marketing?
Whoever at Harbor Freight is leading the Badlands product division deserves some real praise. The winches and the jacks are the real deal and have seriously disrupted the market.
It's not just Badlands, the last few years Harbor Freight has stepped up their game and released so many tools with comparable quality to stuff that cost twice as much. To me Harbor Freight used to be the place you bought that one specialty tool that you only need to work right a few times, now they're the place I go for any tool I need
I heard a rumour that they have some ex snap on people on their executive board.
And we all know HarborFreight is made in China there’s no hiding it like other brands try to do . Name brand companies market products and charge top dollar then try to get consumers to believe it’s a USA product.
I wish we had them in Europe. Same with Yankum ropes. (Since I mostly watch American and Australian RUclips, I don't know what we have here..)
Maybe try Biltima? They seem to get similar stuff as harbor freight... the store smells the same at least
You know Casey, when I first started watching you a couple years ago, I thought you were a bit of a prick... But the more I've watched, it's obvious you're just a straight up real dude that doesn't pull any punches, says it like it is... You've become one of my favorite channels. I appreciate the content and wish you the best.
I enjoy your videos and your straight up honesty about the products you use. That issue with the customer double dispatching tow trucks to his location is common, unfortunately, in the trucking business as some really think it is all about them and to hell with anyone who gets shafted. Glad you found out ahead of time so you could get back to your endless to do list. The thing that makes you human, Casey, is that you are always looking to spend time with your family and I am sure Carina and Riley appreciate it.
You should probably paint the ice chuck red (or another visible color). In the snow they will be invisible if they get buried.
That grey color will be invisible even in plain sight!
They usually come powder coated in orange. Those ones are raw from the foundry. The raw ones usually have better grip.
@@tetedur377 powder coat is slippery. The raw aluminum has better grip.
Reflective Tenacious Tape on the sides. Bonus visibility on the roadside, plus it's so much easier to spot your gear with a head lamp.
@@kd5nrh Best suggestion yet!
This is the video where Mr.LaDelle explains profusely his love for a hydraulic contraption that somebody else explains better
Yep, that's why I watch!
As a security installer I am so glad you said what you did about your security system/ other RUclipsrs. Worryingly I see other professional security installers posting pictures of work they’ve done including where cameras/ sensors are and then pictures of monitors where you can see what the camera is looking at. 🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️
Is there a way to install cameras that is less obvious. Where would a guy go to learn such techniques?
@@Kyle-ev4fk you could install bullet cameras in decoy housings such as bird boxes normally overt cameras are beneficial as they act as a deterrent.
I haven’t seen a pinhole camera that is IP rated for outdoor use and they don’t have infra red for illumination so that’s why I would house a regular bullet camera in something.
@@MrJordanwainI have used old desktop computer power supply housings sprayed flat black and mounted high. Looks like an electrical box because it is. LOL
Yeah; people really won't consider the implications of where a camera is placed, and what others can do with that information.
It's been a couple decades since I've *seen* the {before and after, after, after} from one area(?) chronically installing wireless (analog NTSC) cameras aimed at keypad gates and combination locks at a relative's home.
My host and the installer(*s*) didn't understand why I was so angry at a few specific camera placements when I found out they'd decided to 'upgrade' to wireless ; evidently not understanding that (unlike the original closed-circuit) criminals didn't need to be "'inside' to see the same screen" *with* a wireless camera broadcasting it to whole street - or that changing the channel on the TV doesn't hide the camera's view from an outside attacker with their own receiver.
While I was visiting they suffered multiple break-ins (through the first gate) in the days following because the local burglars/garden-poachers were just rolling around (analog wardriving in the 90's, lol) waiting for someone to enter a code; and didn't notice (or care) that my host was changing the code multiple times a day, because the criminals just recorded the codes and waited for a car to leave, then rushed inside in to grab anything near to the entrance and sprinted off if someone is home. (Generally the gate code and entrance codes are used close together.)
I dropped the argument when one installer stated defensively that he and other locals were rolling in business installing new cameras and locks because of a surge of break-ins; and "they wouldn't be making so much money if [the cameras] didn't work". And they also 'really' wanted to see how the thieves were bypassing the different combination locks, since relying on physical keys (that could be stolen or duplicated) was unpopular at the time.
[edit: huh?, RUclips cut the punchline off. rephrasing...]
I got to install a new d___ bolt, and replaced being frightened (then annoyed) by burglars knocking things over with being startled (then amused) by people (incl. my relatives) face-planting into the door when they forget to (or how to) use a key to get inside.
( Interestingly, the door was just out of frame when the camera was replaced 'again' during that visit. )
There are so many RUclipsrs that promote anything and everything to make the money and get the clicks. I so much prefer your channel Casey! Always honest and legit. Repurposing the old welding trailer for the new to you Camper is awesome. Hopefully you can keep it somewhat protected in between trips so it lasts many more years. Having a tow wreck to help hoist shells on and off the truck sure is handy! Another busy day for you!!
I am OCD as well. When I mounted the fire extinguishers on the roll bar of my Jeep, I had to mount 2 so they would be symmetrical. My wife keeps saying I'm crazy but I keep pointing out to her that I didn't marry me. Who's really the crazy one? Lol.
I just love your honesty Casey! You are an inspiration. I would say you got a whole lot done! And I love the way you promote things that you've tried and tested. And you're not worried about getting paid for promoting them. You just give an honest review and if it's good, that will make sales for the company. Oh and not smart to show your security system set up. Come on Simply Safe!
Too funny.
The very first time I say a youtube SimplySafe commercial I thought to myself, what is this guy doing.
He explained that he was having issues with someone stealing stuff out of his shed, so he puts simply safe cameras up on video showing exactly where they were and where the blind spots were.
????
Once again Casey says it like it is.
Some of the channels make a big joke out of doing the commercial, very elaborate jokes, love those.
Hey Casey, how about Athletic Greens, yum.
That’s another company that won’t leave me alone
My Director of Security agrees with you about keeping your preparedness private
Will be getting one of the jacks for my son for his 40th bday in July. Nice for my grandson to give him. Love your videos!
Man, I’m in absolute awe every time you show that rollback. What a beautiful truck.
Security cameras, one system to be seen and one system to NOT get noticed.
I need to get some SimpliSafe stickers to put around, at least. Maybe some SimpliSafe shells to further misdirect.
Right?!
Funny story about backing up. I had my daughter (12 at the time) spotting me, I was dropping my work 16’ fifth wheel trailer. I told her to watch me. As I was reversing I thought “I must be getting close to the dumpster” 1 second later BANG! Yup right into it. I said to my daughter why didn’t you stop me? “Oh that’s what you wanted me to do?” Was her reaction 😂
It's important to be specific with your instructions, especially with someone who isn't experienced.
She did a good job of watching you though.😊 now you both have a story to tell 😅
@@judithburke1539 I asked one of my nieces, back when she was very young, if my rear indicator was working, she said yes, no, yes , no!
@@mikerubynfs Oh I can just hear her . . and can't quit chuckling. 🙂
The mind of a child is an invaluable tool at teaching teachers how to teach. 😁
@@NorthernKitty absolutely. After inspecting the damage, a 6” slice in the thin sheet metal easily repaired we both had a laugh as I explained how to properly spot a trailer back and then let her maneuver the truck/trailer herself. I’m proud to say both my girls can change their own oil change a flat and many other small repairs/maintenance projects around the house etc. I’ve always gone by the thought “if you don’t know, you don’t know” everything needs and can be taught. My father was a “figure it out yourself kinda dad, I learned a lot through trial/error but decided with my own kids teaching is the way but not do it for them.
Living in the country is nice when it comes to noise. I really like making loud noises while doing works, or building things, it makes it look like you know what you're doing more. And you particularly nailed it kicking the side of the trailer🤣🤣..I really liked that part
I really enjoy these videos about your normal days. Pretty freaking cool. You have all (well one can never have all) the cool tools which allow you to do all the stuff you do without help. I mean sure help would be good but honestly you really don't need the help. Thank you for sharing as always. Peace Out.
i actually bought my badlands jack because of the excellent review Nate did on it.
Casey, next time Simply Safe offers you a nice payment to make a video for them, take their money! Do whatever they want you to show in their video, then simply remove that security equipment once the video goes live. You don't have to show your ACTUAL security system..... just a quick security demonstration that can be removed when you're finished. Take their money when they offer it. lol. Everyone else does. And I highly doubt most of the other youtubers who advertise for them are actually using the exact same setup that was shown in their videos. In fact, the only other youtuber that I know who does regular videos for simply safe is Cleetus Mcfarland. I don't recall him ever doing "install videos". Sure, he may explain how easy it is to install, and he may show a camera or door lock here and there but so what! A random camera and door lock is not going to completely compromise is other security measures. He makes what ever video he wants to make, and they pay him. Next time they send you an offer that includes specific video requirements that you don't like, send a counter offer back and remove the specific requirements that you don't like. I bet they will accept your counter offer.
Thanks for the shout-out, buddy 🙌
Just like you, my jack is still holding strong, and I use it all the time 💪
Easiest way to do a review, just tell people to go watch a review 😂
I've got 2 of the highlift badlands jacks from Harbor Freight. Love em
Got a lot of tasks completed! So nice to have equipment that make the jobs easier, and quicker too.
Oh I actually got the badlands off road jack for Christmas. It's been really amazing to use.
hey the little bit yiu showed of jack , makes me want it even more🙂
You were very wise to not reveal your security system. There are unscrupulous people who search RUclips to learn such things.
You just talked me into buying one of those jacks. Heard all I needed to.
Nice video!! I enjoy seeing someone else contending with "projects" like the rest of us have to. MUCH easier watching you than doing my own projects! LOL!! Thanks Casey!!
Tow trucks with booms are very handy for musical camper exchanges😅!
So, so true!
It's nice to have tools
Having a vehicle with a wrecker boom seems like a very convenient tool to have around
Yes, very handy!
Just had a flashback of Rory Irish moving a conex box up a mountain with his tow truck. lol
I like that Badlands jack. I have a gravel driveway that I work on. I use Harbor Freight aluminum jacks, I'm on my second one. I have a pair of the aluminum jack stands, a 3 ton and 6 ton steel stands. I have plenty of 3/4" pieces of plywood to put under the stands and jack. I also have plenty of scraps of 2x4, 2x6, 2x8 and 2x10 lumber as well well as some 4x4 pieces for blocking when needed.
I also have a set of wooden stands and ramp made from 2x10 rough cut lumber. The stands are 12 inches tall and 20 or so 9nches long. The ramps are 5 ft long that fits into a cut anyway on the stands with bolts to prevent slipping while driving up on or backing down off.
That new jack with the big wheels and steel plate on the bottom would make it easier to move around my workspace.
On your Milwaukee tools, I never drank the Kool aid on them. I use Harbor Freight cordless tools. For the price I can own two Hercules tools for the price of Milwaukee tools. I started with Bauer, then when you the Hercules tools came out I upgraded to them. No regrets. Some RUclipsrs have switched over to the Hercules tools. These people really work them. Haven't heard any complaints yet.
I always learn cool stuff when I watch your project videos. 👍 Thank you, Casey!
I might not watch this channel for all of his content but i do for his honesty. Great channel
Casey, thanks for sharing your activities and commentaries. The inclusion of family and friends brings the warm human element we often times find missing in todays internet life. Your travelling to various work calls displays the beauty of Oregon. The state should pay you for your scenic videos. Keep up the good work....
The one thing I really like about you Casey is your honesty especially when it comes to reviews, Oh and by the way I was saying whoa whoa when you were backing under the camper lol!
Casey I did tell you to stop, you either didn't hear me or you ignored me. Every time I watch one of your videos I learn something new.
Hopefully the insurance company showed up and took the totalled truck, and gave you your check.😉
Be Safe!
Keep Your Head Up! 👍
They did the next day
I'll need to check out that Badlands jack. I haven't really found a solution I'm happy with for jacking up a car in the mud or snow, and it looks like that might be perfect!
Good day. Thanks for taking us along. I noticed that HF is really upping their game (and their prices) in the last several years. Whether any of their products are worth the price is a decision a person makes. Lots of u-toobers have good things to say about the Badlands jack and the Apex winch. Most of the basic hand tools I have from HF have been more than adequate. I stick with another brand for cordless tools, like many people do, because of the previous investment in batteries and chargers.
Most of my cordless tools are the big brand, but I sprung for the 80 volt chainsaw and pruning saw.
Note that I found adapters on ebay to use M18 batteries on my 18 volt yellow and black tools.
These kinds of video's are very enjoyable to watch. I never get bored with seven different chores going on :)
A buddy of mine made his trailers front area into storage /for a quad/trail bikes/generator&gas/water/camp tables/flatirongrill and whatever else , also the long neck make it easier to control while backing up...
It turned out to be a really good set-up and the wife likes the camper access and not being stuffed with gear.....
Time for an upgrade, to keep track of those projects. White board!
Ive had a Milwaukee 1/2 cordless impact for about 6.5 years now. I use it in the dirt, mud and snow and nearly every project Ive done has needed that tool and it hasn't broken or quit. So it sucks to see you having so many issue with Milwaukee, but i totally understand where you're coming from lol Ive had tools do similar things and i just have to laugh it off. they all have a lifespan, some just lived longer.
Thank you for understanding proper security protocols
Love watching your channels. Especially love to watch your collaboration with the Utah folks.
Thanks for sharing video snipets of your life , day to day. Greatly enjoy watching your videos about your rescues, your equipment etc. Continue to stay safe in your endeavors, take care of your family as well. Again, really enjoy this medium, have learned a few things :)
Your honesty is appreciated!
Casey thanks for your honest unapologetic product reviews. I love the fact that you don't cave to the money like many others. Oh and obviously I enjoy all your great videos.
i understand that he likes rescue drivers out of the ditch for free too.
The camper on the service body truck would actually be a cool desert overland setup! As you say lots of storage space in the boxes and a bug free and warm space to stay isn't bad.
@00:26 man you should just pick up a used utility bed, maybe a already made UTILITY BED Trailer and put your bed camper on the Utility bed trailer so you can have the storage space and the camper as a pull behind, plus you can pull it off the Utilitybox trailer and use it as attended in the first place on the truck for long drive's as a place to eat and sleep all in one,
You can do videos like this any time that you want to - I think most of us are just content to spend a day with you seeing some of the little life's projects and hearing your very valid thoughts on things like the security systems and the different usages that you have for your rigs. I do wonder about the jacks on the camper if you are going to trailer bed haul it - they appear to be low enough that going into the woods with them installed would be a sketchy proposition (fixing broken mounts is a pain in the rear - been there, helped do that). I wonder if putting the platform back under it would accomplish two things - keep the platform safe from being damaged, and two, raise the camper up several inches, thus increasing the ground clearance of the camper jacks so they aren't quite so much "low hanging fruit".
Hey Casey, thank you so much for your videos. I’m always entertained.
So you finally had time to do some of your own projects, good job. When you are a professional craftsman your own projects are always on the back burner. Love your channel and saw some of the vids from the "Wrecker Games".
Project #6 electric jacks with wireless remote for the camper. My old camper was a 10' Lance and jacking that up to remove from my truck 4 to 5 times a year, wore out the jack linkage pins (bag of black bolts for replacement and oil can to the rescue). Newer camper has electric jacks. OMG how sweet it is.
Go check out Nate’s video to see a really good comparison and overview of the Badlands jack!
ruclips.net/video/Vv_8ooIbaVU/видео.html
Was gonna said the same thang ! 😄 Nate put that thang through a LOT !
Great review by Nate. Honest, respectful, to the Point. I have seen general references to the Badland jack in various videos but no review. This of invaluable. Going to add one to my tool shed.
Thank you! One of my pet peeves when people make mediocre videos/guides/tutorials about something, like they're the ultimate expert, when they could have forwarded you to a much better option...not saying you wouldn't make a great review, but like you said: Nate nailed it! 👍👍👍👌
I have a 14’ flatbed trailer that I put my old caveman camper on for all the reasons you stated. It works so well. I can even fit a dirt bike or quad on the back.
I have a good floor jack but no floor to use it on, so now I have to go get an off road jack lol. Thanks for the great content.
I would hope that you cleaned up that edge before going onto the next project after cutting that steel with the saw there could be a sharp edge and anybody could come along and cut their little fingers on it, and that saw you were using probably when you caught it, it blew the breaker and that's why it stopped working, Everything else you did a great job doing it by yourself, I love the jack, I have the older floor jack that they sell at harbor freight, I love to have one like that, but Zona said There's a need and a want list, and it's on the want list for now. Thank you so much for the video we enjoyed it, oh, and it's nice to see an Honest person once in a while, thanks again
I appreciate your security mentality; as a former LEO and person that owns a company that installs security systems I never fail to be supersizes at how many times I see people give up their own security so easily online, when once something is online it’s always there.
One free piece of advice, while SD cards in individual devices can be a good as far as information redundancy it shouldn’t be your primary recording media. I hope you are at a minimum using a local DVR/NVR or computer with monitoring software on it and a redundant media drive or drives as controlling your own video is the only way to be, as every cloud based system has massive flaws in both operational and data security. You can’t beat a local storage solution with VPN access for remote monitoring/viewing as it puts you in control of your data and ensures it is secure from the moment it’s recorded to the moment you decide what to do with it.
The SD cards are a backup
Too many people don't take security seriously.
Always good to find someone that understands that an 'agency' does not care about your property and is never working with your best interests at heart.
One of the main reasons I love watching your videos you're honest and you don't promote crap keep up the good work love the videos
wow you did more in this one day than some guys get done in a week!! Nice idea to have that "porch" for the camper...place for muddy boots etc?? Enjoy and thanks for sharing. Yes that jack is a beast!
You could make a covered box for the muddy boots to prevent pools of water inside of the boots greeting you the next time that you need them.
Good morning Casey Thank you for all
These great videos . Much love from Massachusetts ❤
You know you can run a plasma cutter along a guide, right? Full disclosure, I've never done it, but, ironically, there are RUclips videos. 😁 I'd rather watch Casey screw something up than watch Dave fly a helicopter.
Thanks for pointing that out. I do own a nice plasma cutter and that was my first thought too. Just clamp a straight board or piece of steel to the side of the trailer and use it as a guide. The plasma torch cut can actually be straighter and cleaner than that saw cut since the edge will be “fire polished”.
There’s a guy around here who does overland that built something very similar to the trailer you want to build. He even made a removable set of stairs, so he can remove when the trailer is towed. It’s also on the same kind of tires as his Jeep.
Hey Casey, I appreciate your honesty and candor when it comes to your reviews, especially when it's about something sponsored.
There are alot of people who are driven by the all mighty dollar and say junk is good because their getting paid to say that. But you give an honist straight forward review even if it cost you a sponsor. Its nice too see some people still have ethics and high moral values. Keep up the great videos.
P.S. next time your in Utah drop me a note and we'll go catch a fish or two.
Normally, people are just showing the security systems on a table and maybe the install of a camera or sensor. You have a good point but there are some holes in it
Casey I have just the opposite when calling a wrecker. Twice now I've called a tow company. He's passed me off to his buddies with out telling me. And twice now neither has called or showed up. 😮😡😡🤬
1. putting your camper in the trailer makes sense sometimes, but, when you need it, and need to pull a trailer, doesn't make sense. 2. Simply Safe, sure they want you to do vids as to how to install and how they work, but, that doesn't mean you have to do the vid exactly where you would install them for good.3. trailer tires, just keep them rotated and eventually you'll need 4 or five tires instead of one at a time. Also, I recommend getting truck tires instead of trailer tires. last much longer and a lot fewer flats.
13:28 That camper actually looks really good on that work truck.
Thank you for mentioning the problem with that security system. I 100% with what you said about how unwise it is to say what security system you have and how you have it set up.
Yep. Had a former criminal tell me that even having the sticker on the house (companies used to give discounts if you did), was just telling the burglar which system he'd have to deal with. lol Saw a house sticker one time that said, 'This house guarded by Smith & Wesson'.
I don't think they need to show how its setup, just how it works.
But still, it might be a weak point, since they are wireless.
I feel almost stupid for having never thought of the so called security ads that way, but that is an incredible point and one that many more should think about!
Just watching this makes me want to take a break. 🤣🤣 Are the legs on the new camper going to be a problem ? Seems like they were pretty low.
Thanks for the video
Remember to stack third board support under center of camper of floor to keep floor board from falling through while walking around in it. Dry rot of wood floor exacerbated issue in my used to be a camper.
Just got my Badlands off road floor jack and finished putting it together. Really nice floor jack and happy with my purchase, bought it to use with my E350 because tired of fooling around with 20 year old jacks that are worn out. Glad I saw this video. We'll see how long it lasts, I won't be a pig with this jack.
I think you got a lot done for doing nothing! You are right about that security company being sketchy wanting people to show where they mounted their cameras!
Multi purpose, I like it!
Back in the day, I did a similar idea, but in the back of a detached truck box. NOT good. It was too tall. I think your set up is going to be really good!!
Hi Casey. I really enjoy your videos. I would suggest that you leave the tongue on your little utility trailer long. A trailer with a long tongue is much easier to back up and less likely to sway when towing forward. Also comes in handy when you want to haul some long lumber or other materials.
"small shop politics" As I built my furniture business in rented spaces tools had to be moved into position for use then back for storage. Once I was able to build my own shop, everything had it's place for use but the politics of equipment never stops.
Good necessary work Casey. Thank You for the heads up on security providers and the off road floor jack.
You Sir are a young Man that can be trusted for good work, content and ethics, Thank You
You are in my prayers
Hoka Hey
If you want a straight cut with plasma cutter, just g-clamp a straight piece of timber below the cut and use it as a guide. No drawing lines, no steadying the cutter, gravity holds it against the guide.
Casey, I always appreciate your honest no BS reviews and comments. You're very smart not to show your security system on your channel. Thanks for sharing!!!!
Project farm just did a review on winches Warn , Smitty built HarborFreight they’re all made in China I wouldn’t expect that from Warn
Want tries to avoid that fact and make it appear that they are 100% usa made without actually saying it. That’s a business practice I have absolutely zero respect for. There’s a recovery gear company that does exactly the same thing. They actually offered me FAR more than Yankum did (by a lot), but I refused to work with them because I want nothing to do with a company like that.
Your camper on trailer can now be pulled onto the rollback for those overnight or long day underlift tows. Good days work getting things done.
Definitely lock down those wheel chocks. They are super nice. I just love how you do things. Never would have occurred to me to use the boom as a crane. You have a pretty awesome collection of some very capable toys. And as a current resident of Vermont, I like your views better. 😁👍
Love, love, love the idea of the pickup camper on the trailer. It'll be great to see the finished product.
Casey you are right the dirt life video is on point... if even remotely curious about either jack definitely worth a view
I don't understand your issue with Milwaukee. I've had a small grinder I've used a million times and its been 20 years or more and I've still got it it still works fine. Been the best small grinder I've ever owned. Not saying your wrong but I am saying I've had extremely good luck with my Milwaukee tools. I would have more if they just weren't so damn expensive.
I thought the idea behind the small camper was to keep it on the sneaker truck for those overnight tow jobs? I bought one of the Badlands offroad jacks, they really are amazing. Makes jacking a Jeep up on the dirt, sand or gravel much, much easier. I lucked out and walked into my local HF and they had a pre order that wasn't picked up, otherwise they still have a long wait list for them.
You can now build boxes on both sides of the trailer for the camper also for extra storage. Good luck with new camper
Yes to the security rant.
Thank you for your opinion on the badlands jack -- I have been debating on if I want to get one, and I think now I will. The fact that all of the parts store on the jack finally sold me. Also, THANK YOU for what you said about security systems!! Why anyone would show all their cards on you tube is beyond me. I have a several layer system myself, I have easily seen and visible cameras out in the open to discourage the average thieves, and all kinds of hidden cameras and sensors to surprise the more motivated thieves.
Was yelling at you to stop from western Oregon and you couldn't hear me from eastern Oregon love your videos you keep it real no bullshit
Thanks for sharing.. Harbor Freight has stepped up their game in the last year on alot of different things, including their solar panels finally..
Very smart of you to not make a video showing your whole security system. The jack definitely looks cool. That camper looked great on that silver utility truck. Looked like an off-road camper.
Looks like you need to hire grumpy to work on your projects at the house great video keep up the good work God bless from GA and stay safe
Casey, thanks again for the insight on the hazard freight jack. I wanted one, but now I’m sold!
LOL , Yup I was saying STOP Casey!
Not loud enough!
Casey, for your wheel chocks, pick up a fire service catalog and check out wheel chock brackets. Those look just like we used on our fire department and we had them in slide in brackets.
LOL. I was going to ask how you like the Milwaukee metal saw, but I guess I know now. I was shopping brands and models this morning.
Milwaukee everything sucks.
@@CaseyLaDelle Been my experience as well, but my cheaper go to brand doesn't offer one.
That's our Casey ... no if's. ands or buts ... he tells us straight out, if he likes something he tells us (and in this case gave us a link to someone who really tells us why Casey likes it) and if he doesn't like tt doesn't hold back on why (losing sponsers for his stright shooting). Part if what makes this an awsome channel to watch.
Looks like you and I have something in common…. Multiple trailers!
I just bought a second surplused rental trailer from Home Depot. I moved my IBC tote over to the newly acquired trailer to haul water for my house. My well crapped out in December of 2021.
