This channel has MORR entertainment value than anything on TV.
"Just pride and scratches." Glad he swallowed his pride and called for help, nice to see the wrecker doing traditional wrecker stuff.
That gentleman was very nice sometimes your pride can be costly but it was a learning experience.
The wrecker was definitely the perfect vehicle and made that job look easy.
SO I"M STUCK! - in Willow Alaska - it's minus forty degrees & no running water as it's all frozen & I have YOUR VIDEOS to escape into & I must say they allow me to escape with fond memories of living in Murray Utah with a paint shop 900 south & 900 west - I can't THANK YOU enough for what you provide
That Dodge was outfitted to navigate shopping mall speed bumps at most.
HEY! Good morning everybody and thumbs UP to Matt and crew! 👍👊👊👀
Use silicone spray instead of WD40 for heim joints. Ran into that issue and found that WD40 attracts dirt while silicone spray doesn’t. Should help with the squeaking until driving through water.
Agreed but WD-40 is now a brand with lots of products, including silicone spray.
Any Dry lube product will work. It will let you know when to reapply.
I really wonder if he said WD-40 on purpose to attract comments like this.
@@jeremyspeccemost likely
I think most people on Matt's level know this, but still joke about wd-40
Editors: We need a segment just for Matt’s words of wisdom and sayings like “When a job is done, it’s been begun a while ago.” Call it Matt’s recovered thoughts!😂
As a former Ytber I'm not going to give you a hard time about the crackly audio... I'm just going to say I feel your pain. Personally I never notice the wrecker squeaks. I've watched Rory...
Lol, yeah.
I thought my AirPod was going out. Glad it was just the audio!
If its squeaking its earning!
A shorter one (with a little bit of sound issues), but right to the point of problem solving to make the recoveries. That's the best part!
Thanks for your comment I thought it was my headphones but then I realized the crackle only happened when the camera guy was walking around. TakeCare and have a GreatDay. ✌️
Yes the popping audio was very annoying.
thank you. Thought it was my phone
Usually the sound quality is quite good and consistent. But not this time.
Almost hard to watch with headphones thankful it’s a short one!
I suggest installing a couple of jump seats, seat belts and hand straps in the back of the Heavy Wrecker since it only sears two in front.
You know how a lizard lays on a hot rock….. that’s how seat heaters feel on my whole body. Love it!
Hey Tom, about the auto shut off on the Ram. There is a button under the ignition switch that you can push to turn it off and on. Also to keep the air bags from trying to level it out you can go under options and lock them in place. You're supposed to do that whenever they get jacked off the ground.
Yes this
Now this is a classic Matt’s off-road video. Love seeing that beautiful Utah scenery! Thanks for sharing.
you're right, it is beautiful... I lived in Utah for 15 years, thank you for reminding me to stop and take a look around... it gets so every day for me living here, and I guess I started forgetting how cool this place is...
I'm currently spending the winter here in Southern Utah. This area is as pretty as any that I've seen, anywhere. The people here are top quality too. I love it here!!
Ever think about a 6-7' bar with assorted attachment points? 2 loops on one side at the ends of the bar and several loops on the other side so you have a spreader bar for soft shackling both tires to the end loops and multiple points on the other side to pull from. think about it....
It's always nice to watch a professional at work doing whatever they do best. You can tell Matt loves his work!
Matt's seat of the pants knowledge comes through once again! Outstanding rigging with zero added damage. Everyone won!
Just an FYI, Dorman actually sells the individual Spline Drive keys at Oreilly's! That way you don't have to buy a whole kit. Love the content as always. Keep it up guys!
I used to guide down in that area, and my daughter played ball at Dixie State. We"ve spend a ton of time down your way, Matt, so it sure makes me happy to see the sights and hear the stories of your youth as well. Love this channel and this group of folks! From Chris, your man in Japan.
I love me some Matt's Off Road Recovery! Til next time, see you then. 😊
James May?
@@mediocreman2capitanu soro
Man I’ve seen a few videos where you have more people than seats in the wrecker. Looks like you could maybe mount a rzr seat on each of them tool boxes behind the cab.
@@mediocreman2 naw, not nearly that cool… or cautious… or rich…
Very nicely done! I'm guessing the customer drove into that in the dark.
That was the perfect job for the heavy wrecker! 😁
It's crazy to think that Matt primarily had RZR with ripped off suspension in mind when he conceived the concept of a heavy offroad wrecker. This yellow Swiss Army knife is so much MORR capable than just rescueing side-by-sides... 😎🤟
That was awesome Tom and Matt! I loved seeing a different approach with the Ram recovery. The rigging was genius!
You might try Maxima Chain Wax on your rod ends. It’s a dry lubricant. I’ve had good luck for years with it.
I'm enjoying seeing the wrecker in it's element doing specialized things it was made to do! Thanks for taking us along :D
I'm hoping you'll put a headliner in the wrecker sometime or paint it over. Just a wishlist item. You saved the Ram from terrible damage. There was hardly a mark on it visible from the rock. Great job with great equipment.
for the squeaky heim joints, try a moly paste. I have Jet Lube MP-50 which is a 50% moly paste. Moly greases are only a few percent. You'd have to undo the joint and coat the ball as you spin it around, but it works fantastic on things like this and lasts a long time.
Good ole Stalantis Ram doin what they do.
The wrecker continues to amaze in it's ability to solve problems! How did you ever live without it! 😉
I don't comment much, but I felt inclined to thank you for the amount of time that you entertain me. I love the channel, the dynamic, the friendships and family that are involved. You are a great crew and I greatly appreciate the time and effort in your channel. Thank you from a truly grateful fan.
Matt, it was very nice to meet you at O'Reilly's the other day. You're just as nice in person as you are in the videos.
Many blessings to you and your crew!!❤
Eric from Kentucky!!
It was nice to meet you. Thanks for stopping by to say hi.
Clint? Is that you?
Couple pit bikes on the trailer with the wrecker would be a good idea for the camera guys. They can ride ahead of the wrecker. Get some shots coming up and going down trail. Trail time video with couple go pro mounts. Be safe, great content.
I like how you said "When" not "If". Honesty is big on this channel. 😁❤️🇺🇲
Matt and Tom make a great team. I love Matt’s experience and gut instinct, but I also love Toms critical thinking and engineering approach. Perfect combo!
Myth: WD-40 Multi-Use Product is not really a lubricant.
Fact: While the “W-D” in WD-40 stands for Water Displacement, WD-40 Multi-Use Product is a unique, special blend of lubricants. The product's formulation also contains anti-corrosion agents and ingredients for penetration, water displacement and soil removal.
Repeat after me: WD40 is a "SOLVANT" not a "LUBRICANT"
@@lavluvlov Ignorant 🤭
@lavluvlov Indeed, in practical use it can be used as a short term lubricant but it loses those properties fast and with consequences ...
@@lavluvlov When you have a squeaky door hinge, it's a lubricant.
Matt nailed it about the hot pillow analogy. I only use my seat and steering wheel heaters to take the ice cold bite off the seat and wheel.
That looks like Hurricane Mesa and the old test range over beside ya'll at the beginning. I've never been, but driving up on the road there is a bucket list item for me one day!
And do it and NOT having to call ya'll to get me back down!
Yes
Nice to have the wrecker as an option to make that job "look easy", right tool for the job! Thanks as always for sharing the adventures
the wrecker made that job a whole lot easier, thanks for sharing
Great job. The WLORW is a beast. Silly question. Why not add two rear-facing Subaru Brat seats on top of the side boxes ?
The wrecker is amazing! Plus great thinking from Matt! Super cool that it could lift up with one winch and pull sideways with the other! Love this channel!
Agreed! The right tool for the job sure makes a man happy.
On a lot of vehicles with auto start/stop, if it has a 'Tow Mode', that'll usually disable the auto stop if you want a quick way or the vehicle doesn't have a general button to turn it off.
I have been watching you from almost the very beginning and have seen every video you put out. I can't wait for every episode thank you for the good clean entertainment of being able to watch your life. Keep being an inspiration
That was a great technique and using the WLOR Wrecker was the right tool for the job. I am sure this guy has to be a little embarrassed driving his truck over his own rock wall. Luckily, he did not push a bad situation.
As an avid off roader, replacing valve stems in the field is a somewhat common occurance. For the standard non TPMS a colby stem is quick and easy without breaking down the tire. I still use my old compression sleeve/funnel setup and force the new stem in from the outside. Fishing the remains of the old one out is the hardest part so sometimes I just punch it in and worry about it later when the riding is done..... Or not.
Yep! Was going to make a comment about the Colby stems too, keep a couple in my rig.
Yes, Colby stems are cheap insurance. Highly recommend.
Great video I just love how Matt and his crew always find a way to fix or undo the problem, ingenuity, skill, and alot of common sense is needed for this job, but I always have faith that these guys will handle the problem 👍👍
Great recoverys guys.....that heavy wrecker is sure earning its keep !!..... thanks for sharing this with all of us
You guys are rock stars in the recovery business. I love watching your videos. Keep them coming and God bless you. For all the good work you do.
Morning Matt and crew
A seating option for the wlorw would be to add a receiver plate on top of the tool boxes and and male adapter on some jump seats and they can be taken on and off easily
I have removable swivel mounts in my boat
Why didn’t you just say the wrecker
Has anyone else noticed the big smile on the wrecker when the camera looks out over the bonnet? It’s almost as big as the smile on Matt’s face when he drives the wrecker.
The wrecker is certainly proving itself, Good job. Matt, you have great teams working with you
Another cool video! FYI - in the RAM 1500s, there is a button right below the rotary gear selector to turn off the auto stop/start feature.
The only thing worse than auto stop/start is cylinder deactivation.
Great video. You can also try dry silicone spray on the heim joints. WD-40 brand makes a dry silicone spray.
Another great outdoor adventure recovery by Matt and the boys.
Awesome job you guys. Keep up the great work.
Put Matt in the “back” seat and I’ll bet he figures out how to add a couple of jump seats real quick.
Gotta have Kaitlin driving ! 😱
She "scares" him 😂 ☠
( Loved it when she quipped :
"pretty hard to NOT drive it like
you _stole_ it if i have to *hotwire*
the ignition _every_ time" ) 🤷♀️
The fact that guy didn't jack it up a bit and pile rocks under the tire make a ramp to back up off the rock is the reason you guys have a great channel and business. Hell yah for people knowing very little 😂
sadly,people are so useless nowadays!
You guys are great! From recoveries to welding instruction - always a good watch!
10:41 Tool boxes behind the cab of the wrecker could use some grab handles for when filmers sit on them.
Can bolt some cushions on top of them if you want to get fancy lol
The wrecker is a beast.
That was quite the feat of engineering! Matt must have played with tinker toys when he was a kid. 😄
Definitely worth having all the different winch locations on the wrecker!! Great recovery!!
Amazing! Your rollback doesn't have a cracked windshield like most of the other vehicles I see you, Paul, and Robby drive.😁
Great Recovery Matt: It is really nice how Tom summarizes the job and ask questions as to process & procedure used or if recovery should have been done differently. We all learn! Jake & Kolby great team!!
Kudos to Greg for nice camera work...and also for riding in the back of the wrecker...outside in chilly 50 degrees weather!
TomTom asking the questions the audience would ask is a great way of storytelling.
To alleviate the heim joint squeak, use a dry silicone or teflon spray. WD brand makes it under the "WD-40 Specialist Dry Lube with PTFE" label. Oil or grease will hold dirt.
Good jobs there. Greg is doing really well on the camera work. Nice to see Thanks for the video.
Great recovery Matt. Glad you put as many winches on the wrecker as you did. It saves time to be able to lift and pull at the same time.
Up up and up
Have a good day and count your blessings amen.
It's a new day. It's a new month. It's a new video from Matt's Off-road recovery. Happy All Saints Day. 🌅🌨️😱 Saint Matt.
Not many out there remember that... 😘🇬🇧
@@mcarter9839 bonfire 🔥 Sunday. Sunday. Sunday! Eh?! Seems like it was just Sunday. Where does the week go. Wait... It still All Saints Day! 🥳 Wednesday. Wednesday. Wednesday! 🥳😉
Great recovery guys. I felt for that guy, new truck, he's gotta have been worrying it was gonna get worse when he was rescued. Very clean job. 👍🏻
This is where an airbag-jack would have been a huge time saver. Airbag on a slope is like a ball bearing - move the vehicle in any direction with a winch.
That was a delicate and skilful recovery of that Ram 👍
I really liked Matt's description of heated seats. 😂 I can't stand them, except to take the chill out of the seat when the car has been sitting in cold weather. First sign of my back getting hot it gets turned off. Some days it makes me feel like I had an accident in my pants. 😂
I took a nice lady out on a date, she suggested we take her luxury car, and I drive. About 15 minutes later I've got the window down, I'm panting like a dog, and I say, "you know maybe going out tonight isn't such a good idea, I think I may have a fever". She said, "I put the seat heater on for you". I'd never even heard of a seat heater. Turned it off, I was fine, two years later I married her, still married, no heated seats in any of my cars.
Chronic lower back pain makes me appreciate heated seats big time
Heated seats are great if you live somewhere that gets COLD in the winter!
However, my old Chevy heated seats have developed a mind of their own. Seems to be a well known problem that the switches go bad.
By the time I realize they have turned on in the summer, it’s too late. My back will be sweating until I get where I’m going.
I’m pulling the door panel and unplugging them next spring.
You should try cooled seats.
Hello MORR! Making the day better as usual.
Hey Matt, I’m just trying to help you out but somewhere along time ago, I seen somebody that had to do a similar type of lift on a vehicle and he had an adjustable pole that would go over the hood of the vehicle and push the two winch cables apart a little bit so they wouldn’t hit the fenders on the vehicle. And with that he’s able to lift off of both wheels and maneuver, the vehicle where he wants it. Hope this helps you guys out
Another very enjoyable film.
You need a padded seat on the top of the boxes behind the cab of extra passengers.
It still seems odd to me that these newer trucks do not come with recovery points standard anymore. They are an option, and not often added on trucks that dealers have on the lot. I had to order mine with them, along with a few other options.
It's because they're all compromised lifestyle vehicles now rather than something capable and purposeful like trucks used to be.
There were a few recalls on various vehicles due to recovery points digging in on dips and triggering the airbags. Might have something to do with it.
Love the editing on this one. Great job Colby. Also, If you decide to spray WD40, I'd recommend the Lithium grease WD40 can.
Love this channel! Look forward to watching them everytime you make a new one. Keep on rocking MORR!!
Finally! A Teeny Bopper free episode!
For most vehicles that have the "Auto Off" feature, there is usually a button where you can turn it off. I agree it is super confusing when you are trying to do anything accept normal driving (like going in reverse for example). It's one of those newer car features I wish they would just do away entirely. All it does is maybe save maybe 1 MPG while wearing your starter out.
Is it mandatory that all windshields must be cracked in Utah? Between this channel fab rats and Robbie Layton I'm always looking through cracks when you guys are driving..lol
Utah state law 😉🙃
A few years ago Utah got rid of the annual safety inspection requirement. A cracked windshield is a secondary violation meaning you only get a citation for it if you are pulled over for something like speeding first. Since these rigs rarely hit the pavement the chances of getting a primary violation are low. So, why fix it if they don’t have to?
Sure triggers my OCD though 😂
What was the wall and staircase in the background
Always enjoy seeing how you handle what is coming up next.
Nice lift job 👍🏻 The Wrecker on the rollback combo looks great 😎
The cool thing about Yankum's new pulley design is that you can run your winch line through the center hole as well and not have to worry about the line staying in the outside groove of the pulley. In this case it wasn't needed. But if the tension was becoming loose and then tightening up again using the center hole would save the worry of the line coming off the outside groove.
The Wrecker is awesome. The only downside I've ever seen is the limited space for passengers. The next wrecker you build, with everything you have learned from this build, you might want to consider a cab over with rear seating. It might even add a little room for "STUFF".
I like these tricky challenging type recoveries...well done!
Wrecker to the rescue... couldn't have accomplished that so elegantly with anything else. Great episode!
factory jack and a few blocks man people getting dumb .
Epi
Love this guy
You should check out the bar they use in Nascar on their wreckers. I am certain it could come in handy. It is not a cure all, but it's simple and would work well in cases where there is no lift points.
I'm watching and my 5yo boy approaches hearing Matt introduce the 1955 International and asks what about the Banana? Isn't that the guy with the Banana? He knows Matt's voice. Lol
Hey Matt and Crew! Really enjoy your videos... Not my place to ask but I just wanted to find out... What happened to the reckers windscreen, and when are you making the roof lining pretty😅 Or is that the way you wanted it? Armand from South Africa... Over and out😎 Wishing I had the same radios as you guys... They look like great quality!
👍
12:37 The two handsome boys to the rescue😊😁👍🏻
Hearing you say you grew dry farmed watermelons was a shock! My family (starting with my grandpa) still grow about 100 acres of dry farmed watermelons in California. That’s down from a few hundred that we used to do. Small world!
A lot of popping in the mic on this one, maybe issue with the camera.
Yeah its hard to hear conversation or have high volume popping.
