There is a good chance a vehicle that has unset will get some damage being righted because it is nearly impossible to control the integrity of the chassis as it is brought back over.

My father works on heavy trucks as well. Not so much of the straightening, but plenty of suspension and stuff. He says you are very good at what you do, plus you make him laugh! He had me post this on his behalf. I have posted a few videos on my channel of his “shop class”.

I'm not a wrecker operator, but I sure do appreciate you recognizing that they are not the problem in most cases, and they have a tough job. They generally are there to help solve problems, but most of the time they also gotta worry about it getting traffic flowing again...I'm new to your channel, but have loved all I've seen so far.

Cool of you to give tow truckers some respect. Often a thankless job that can never be done fast enough to satisfy people. Good explanation on how you practice your craft, and crazy how much you have to twist it. Have you ever had a motor fall completely out of the mount brackets since you twist hard and remove the bolts?

@bkrgls Жыл бұрын

Didn't think the frames could be twisted that much...WOW! And I used to drive a log truck. So, I've experienced some frame flex. It's cool as hell the first time you experience it and that's when you realize just how much engineering and thought goes into truck frames behind the scenes.

@mikebell9166 Жыл бұрын

You help people realize what can be done if you know what you want and how to get that. Straightening a truck frame requires lots of chains and hydraulic jacks, and all of it's heavy and hard to deal with. There's a certain amount of art mixed in with the science and physics of straightening a frame, and your shop seems to have captured the mix well. You do good work and using the beams and columns of the shop itself is genius for showing just how jacked up something was, compared to how it turned out. Thanks for the video!

Awesome. I don't know anything about straightening frames. I know it used to be a thing for cars back in the day before everything was uni-body and sub-frames. Is your shop capable of fixing full frame cars or 1/2 ton pick ups? Or is it just for semis? Just curious. Liked the video, and you earned this subscription. Keep up the great work.

@zcl260 Жыл бұрын

both full framed trucks and unibody cars can be straightened, although the process on unibody cars generally requires removal and replacement of severely damaged areas. from the looks of his shop it appears they mostly work on med/heavy duty commercial size vehicles. pickups and unibody cars can be repaired on a much smaller/lighter duty frame rack than he is using. a unibody car or pickup is valued at much less than a semi truck though, so while frame straightening for them is relatively common, I would imagine the vast majority of them are totaled out due to the astronomical repair cost and just scrapped. whereas a semi wouldn't be.
