Winching A Dead John Deere 8520T

In today's video Darl responds to a broken down John Deere 8520T that needs to be towed back to the John Deere Dealer for repairs. upon arrival, Darl discovers that the track drive gears are completely locked up. He attempts to winch it up only to get it a few feet up the bed of the landoll. He even spoke with John Deere mechanics to attempt to put it into a "neutral mode: with no luck. At this point, he realizes that he needs some more pulling power. Therefore Trent Jr brings the rotator out to pull the unit up the bed so we can transport it.

- - - Frequently Asked Questions - - - -
Q:What camera do you use?
A: I use the Go Pro Hero 7 Black Edition primarily. Often times you will see auxillary cameras in use. Those cameras include The Go Pro Hero 6, Hero, and DJI Mavic Pro Platinum

Q: How big Is your rotator?
A: It is a 50 ton Miller Industries Vulcan 950

Q: Does the carriage slide back like Ron Pratt's?
A: No, the carriage doesn't slide back due to strict weight laws in California. The sliding carriage will make the truck to heavy in CA

Q: Why do you only have 3 winches on the rotator?
A: Comes down to weight again as stated above

Q: How many trucks Does Plaza Towing have?
A: Currently more than 30

Q: Why must the driveshaft be removed to tow a vehicle?
A: When vehicles are not running the transmission is not receiving circulating lubricant. If the driveshaft is left installed, the transmission, which is not receiving lubricant, is still spinning. This allows it to get very hot which eventually will cause major damage to the transmission. Therefore, removing the driveshaft completely eliminates the transmission from spinning. Simply leaving it in neutral is not sufficient since the transmission still spins in neutral.
