      I have moved some very heavy stuff with the simple addition of a gin pole. Instead of trying to pull the thing through the slope a gin pole allows you to pull it upward and away/above the slope. Even the simple addition of a tire rim (so the rope, cable, chain goes up and over) makes a huge difference and is well worth the effort.

  • @joefudd

But Matt's been very clear about NOT doing a kinetic pull in these conditions even with the correct gear for the reasons that Joe mentioned. There's just too much suction and you're going to break things. Slow and steady with a winch is MUCH safer.

      I was thinking the same. Even with Winches, the Morvair would have been slipping and likely need to be anchored etc, and it would have been a much harder pull out to the road. This was the purpose designed rig Matt envisioned and is now proven, even as it is being further improved and tuned. One improvement I would add right away is a textured mat to the toolbox lid so that if there are riders they are more secure from sliding around on rough roads. Databyter

    My Grandfather would have done the same thing if I had asked. He passed away 5 years ago and I miss him a lot.
    One time when I was very young, I was with my Grandfather going to different dealerships as he was looking for his "retirement" car. One of the test drives we pulled up next to a cop and I asked him if this new car was faster than a cop car.
    His reply was, "Let's find out." Yes, we got pulled over after he laid some rubber down, but after he told the cop what I had asked, the cop laughed and let us go.

    After watching the wrecker build over the last year, it is absolutely amazing at what a beast it is and how well it works! Matt would have been stretching the Morrvair to the limits doing dynamic pulls with a rope repeatedly to get this one out..But the wrecker just sits there and yawns in boredom at this Jeep sucked deep in the mud ! A million kudos to Matt & his amazing team in building this wrecker machine! Hmmm...now the problem is ,will the videos get boring since theres little effort involved using the wrecker??!! haha! Great job, MORR team! :-)

    Perhaps you can make a little flip down cushioned jump seat over your shifter controls so a 3rd passenger wouldn't have to "hover"? Based on the amazing job you've done constructing the wrecker (and all the other vehicles), shouldn't be too difficult.

    You should bolt a jump seat on top of the cabinets on the back of the wrecker. You know your going to have passengers so they might as well be comfortable and safe with a harness to hold them in. Cheers.

    Another highly watchable video. Is there anything 'recovery' that powerful wrecker cannot do!? Those Yankum ropes together with a rig that has the stamina to give a steady pull look pretty good for most applications. You already knew getting that jeep full of water out of the 'muddy pond' clearly needed a winch with two power lines to walk it out. Wondering how exactly did one of the previous helpers break the back window?

    This is so not my area of expertise but wouldn't it behoove Matt and team to encourage people to get radios? (GMRS, FRS, CB) The recovery vehicles could have nice antennas to be able to make contacts. Just a thought! Love the videos!

    • @dorvinion
      @dorvinion Рік тому +1

      I don't think there are any GMRS repeaters in that part of Utah
      For vehicle to vehicle might be useful I guess
      I would suspect that if you don't have cell coverage you wouldn't expect coverage from a handheld or mobile radio either since the cell towers would be placed on the same mountains as the repeaters

    • @KarlEller
      @KarlEller Рік тому

      They have 2-way hand-held radios, and they've got units they're supposed to mount in the vehicles, but they haven't gotten around to it yet and/or keep leaving the hand-helds behind.

    I think it'd ba a great idea to build a couple small lightweight aluminum jumper seats to mount on the wrecker bed somewhere, that's easy to mount and remove with a couple pins so you can remove it in seconds, and be able to fold them up and make a roof rack or something to put them when not in use.

    Oh, and also loving how easy the wrecker seems to make some of these jobs look. Great work on that build!!!
