    It looked like to me, like he turned too sharply too soon, and it may have started telescoping, but then he cuts further to the left and that seems to be the point at which the coil momentum was out of control and rolled the trailer and then the truck with it.:eek:

    Looks to be. There's a wall in the front, that most likely qualifies as a header structure, but regardless, there's a penalty (double) strap on the front, and belly wraps at the third level, and double straps over the top on each section, so...it looks like a winner, unless there's something I can't see. :)

    He was driving way to fast.

    You chain coils properly and drive like they are not chained. Best advise I was ever taught.

    It’s a wonder some of these guys get #### done at all. I moved a 360 Komatsu yesterday didn’t chain it at all. Didn’t even use outrigger boards.

    it only went two miles. Guess I should have spent 30 minutes putting 9 chains on it

    When I drove for a pipeline and grading co. I've side loaded old 235 and 330 cat excavators and never straightened them up pull out of one job site down the road a few miles into another. Sometimes with a operator in the cab and never cut the machine off. That'll probably give someone on here a heart attack.
