The heavy lifting team was called to the intersection of IH-35 S and Oak Creek Way in New Braunfels, TX, to assist with a 150,000 lb lift!

A quick inspection of the beam confirmed his suspicions; the beam was off-center by approximately 4 inches! Thanks to the driver’s experience and quick thinking, a potentially devastating accident was avoided. With the problem identified, the driver made a call to Mission Wrecker.
