Hydraulic

can a tow truck let down it's load without the key? (lost keys)

i don't understand the question but here goes, if you have a car on the tow truck and you lost the keys to the tow truck then it's gonna be hard to get car the car off. if it's on the whell lift, you might be able to lower the wheel lift by releasing the pressure in the hydraulic system but if it's on the flatbed, better off geting another flatbed and park it back to back with the other one and transfer the car.

if you lost the keys of the car you are towing, it's not a big deal if your'e towing with a wheel lift, if it's with a flatbed, most cars have an easy way to shift out of park when there's no keys, if you can't get the car in neutral, then there's lots of ways.

#1 un-hook the car and play with the momentum of the car (back up bed then put bed foward continuously). #2 put a litle bit of oil under the wheels but be carefull there's nothing behind the car 'cause it can go further/faster than you think. #3 back up where there's a tree or telephone post, put the bed down, put a chain around the post, hook up snatch block(pully) to the chain, hook up car and winch in.

have fun! :)

Removing a car with out keys on a rollback is simple. You attach a snach block to the rear of the bed and run the cable back to the front of the car. Add a little soap to the drive tires and winch it off. Very simple
