  • Saved by the pole! Loaded box truck almost rolls over over in Hollywood
    Close, but no cigar. This box truck pulled over to make his deliveries, and nearly tipped over. Few theories on what happened, but I can't speculate. I'm just glad we were able to assist before something major happened.
    I responded with Hulk, my 50ton 2020 Rotator, to lift and level the box using my spreader bar. Once safe, the off load crew was able to empty the truck and finish their deliveries, then put the rest of the load in a new box truck. Relatively quick and simple work compared to what I'm used to, but still done with the same professionalism as all jobs.
    After the recovery portion was done, Joe used his 50ton wrecker to tow the unit back to the customer's yard.

    Back in the late '80s, I worked for both Penske Truck Leasing and Budget Truck Rental, I've seen lots of broken boards. What a mess to repair as well, without having to remove all of the floorings. We made patches that passed the company's testing for all repairs we'd done, passed and them all. What I like repairing were the cornercaps, what a blast. Molding the corner with the lightning installed and sealing that repair back onto the truck. I'd put my initials inside both corners and they water tested it with hurricane-strength winds and rains without any problems meaning no leaks. We got the truck back some 2 years after we'd sent it to the main service center and they rented it out back to our location in Fort Walton Beach, FL. Both corner caps still had my initials on them and a couple of other tags stating that they were company-wide approved.

      I’m glad to hear the companies had standards, and job well done! In the early 2000’s I worked as a forensic architecture technician. We had this homemade but well-designed spray rig for testing window leakage. I’d typically go up in a cherry picker with the rig attached and spray the windows of buildings from the outside. We would spray water at a set PSI /GPM/ set nozzle pattern and time how long it took for moisture to show up on the inside of the building- and see if the window installations lived up to their ratings.

Now imagine a (natural) red haired mowhawk spiked out… I remember waking up 20’ish mins earlier than normal to put globs of hair gel and hair spray in it…. Except the winter months, then it was just slicked back and I had a snow hat. Winters get cold here in NY haha. In all honesty though, the flatter hair style does in my humble opinion give off a more professional appearance too so that might be a better choice all around. I have been blessed to no longer have to worry about any of that, instead I gotta spend a couple minutes shaving off the last bit of hair on my head lol. Keep up the great work bro, as well as your engagement with fans here on the ‘tube it is appreciated as any of us can agree to that I’m sure.

    I'd of used both lines to the spreader.. to control the side to side lift better.. the center pivot centered the load. Without directional control.... But I'm just a viewer! Enjoy the channel!

    • @PepesTowingService
      @PepesTowingService  Před 2 lety +3

      That defeats the purpose of a spreader bar, it's designed for a truly even lift. Two lines would make that impossible, despite how close you get, one side will always have more tension than the other even if it's slight.
