A S.W.I.F.T Rescue For A Shifted Load!

- A S.W.I.F.T Rescue For A Shifted Load! - I do many shifted load jobs and this one could have ended disastrous. Luckily the load did not go into the cab, or even cause damage to the tractor or air lines. The load had to sit flush layer after layer which was a bit tricky to do with rotators on a 3 lane street in traffic, but with Alex in our 75ton rotator Big Flipper and myself in Hulk, a 50ton rotator, we got the driver rolling in no time.
Originally I was going to let Alex handle this job solo, which he could have done but with more than double the time due to constant re-rigging and re-positioning the truck. Not only did the separate layers need to be dragged back, but they had to be lifted and set precisely back onto each other. By using my truck for the horizontal pulling, it allowed Alex to lift them and set them simultaneously. The less time you spend in traffic, the better.
We used our Bailey's grommet slings for the job, and once the customer gave us the thumbs up it was his cue to strap the load again and head off to Texas. Safe travels driver!

Is good. Its kinda funny how your adjusting a load in front of a business sign that reads "it can be fixed" 😂👍
Hahaha funny you say that. I didn’t notice that sign until I was making this video 😂
Back in the 1970s I drove a lorry mounted crane in London UK and got lots of call outs to lost and shifted loads. Crushed scrap cars was an often call out with the roofs of cars crushed down to window cill height and then stacked onto flat beds with steel uprights so say preventing them falling off, the car bodies are then secured with wire ropes and ratchet fasteners. After a short time driving the loads would settle and the wires slacken, and the cars slide out between the uprights. It's a time-consuming job to restack the load on a live road.
Special trucks and trailers were used to haul steel coils, with the center of the bed recessed so the coils sat down in the recess. Never see them knower days but do see lost coil loads.
Hey Josh...! Thanks for the video...! Alex has been doing a great job recording too btw...!
Those are rod pump barrels used on down hole oilfield pumps. The one's all of us see in a distance in a field bobbing up and down. Of course, these are on the bottom end of the tubing string down hole. They are delicate and have to be handled carefully not to crush or bend them. They really need cribbing between each basket to keep them from shifting.
That looked a simple operation, but still technically challenging! Tackling each part of a job like that requires brain power over physical strength! Good planning = 100% success👍
Thank you Josh and Alex for a good videos with big flipper and Hulk
Well done, Josh and Alex! You guys stay safe out there.
Good job Josh and Alex getting that load straightened out!
This kind of reminds me of the job where the heavy steel plates shifted.
Great work, as always. Y'all are the best!
I like watching you guys even that I live all the way in Michigan.
En todas. Todas las páginas de CZcams odiamos k primero expliquen y luego hagan exactamente lo k explicaron ... Por k no explican mientras hacen el trabajo... Además te recomiendo clips cortos y videos cortos.. por k cuando son largos o fastidia o no hay tiempo de verlos... Me encantan tus videos y espero k este comentario sea de utilidad para tu canal.
Another good one PEPE outstanding prep'rigging
You were lucky NO POWER lines or signs to impair the vertical lift and boom rotation . The driver was fortunate those things didn't penetrate the back of his cab. As usuall another GREAT video and job done in your California traffic mess. Thanks
Impressive when you get the job done with those beautiful tools.
well done which is the way you handle all jobs!!!
It's amazing what wreckers can do anymore!
Well Done. LEO had to be happy too!
Great job with fixing the load
Good job Josh & Alex
Alex is the man! 😊❤
Job well done Alex
Nice job lads driver got chain good prob good chain so don't slide fallwards again love see hulk fliper
When I watch these videos concerning flat beds with shifted loads, I wonder why the do not provide straps or chains to hold the load from shifting forward. There is probably a good reason but I don't see it. Thanks for making Monday a day to look forward to.
Called a headache rack on the trailer.
Belly strapping, sometimes layers, helps prevent this type of thing.
Chains on steel doesn't slip, if they're tight 😮
Nylon straps don't GRIP properly
Another awesome job 🤓🙋♂️👍
Nice easy job there for hulk and flipper. Good video guys
Great job well done guys
Great video josh wait for it sone one going say they could done that wth 1 ton holmes wrexker lol
Good afternoon from Southeast South Dakota
GOOD JOB GUYS THE A TEAM IS BACK…..
2:33 - Words to live by...
Nice work y'all love it looks good 👍👍👍👍👍👍😊
Great Job Alex & Josh - NOT an easy job at all ... but someone needs to teach that driver how to properly chain down and secure a load like that! Very obvious to an old retired skateboard driver that his load will NOT be secured correctly. But then, you learn to expect that from that company! They are still as scary to be around as they used to be.
The black metal looks powdered coated which makes it really slippery
Would getting something like a "overhead pallet lifter" attachment be be good for this type of thing?...
Edit: Nevermind: biggest one I could see was like 3 tons
Nice job, those things were really poorly designed for stacking on top of one another.
I think Alex's original idea was better but you got there eventually.
nice job guys steel on steel can be a disaster i carted a lot of stainless pipe in steel crates with chains tho even then they moved in a panic stop lucky they hit the headboard on the truck and trailer (I "m in new zealand) so was lucky tightend tightened chains and kept going was around 26000kgs total our transport cops dont like you catring steel with webbing straps like those
Yes I've noticed Alex in a lot of your videos 😢 lol you need to put papi chulo joe more in the videos ❤
This looks like a job you’ve done before,
What day was this?
I’ve done tons of shifted loads. This job was last week so you have not seen it yet lol
I still dont know why they allow drivers to haul loads like that on trailers without heavy duty head boards. If that driver hadnt safety strapped it over the front it would have been a tractor Guillotine and taken that cab right off the frame.
👌👌👌👍👍👍💪💪💪❤❤❤💯💯💯
Needed more timber between the metal
Metal on metal is always too slippy having wood spaces acts like glue
that driver is very lucky a few feet further and that load would have decapitated him
Headache rack saved his tail.
I wondered
How much flipper lift in tons ? Uk tons?
😂😂😂😂 SWIFT😂😂😂😂
GOOD THING THERE WASNT ANY ARCH NEMISIS. GREAT JOB, AND THATS A HORRIBLE LOAD HOW THEY STACK THEM SUCKERS TO TRSANSPORT. JUST MY OPINION
cannot under stand why your american trailers do not have a head board to stop this thing happening.. Why is there no wood inbetween each layer, thats why they dlid
For comparison: similar job, done entirely unicorn style. czcams.com/video/iVaaAQSGuOw/video.html
Not really too similar without the vertical force? That’s literally half the battle. That’s just a straight winch back on the load
