I’m a diesel mechanic and that cross member gave me flashbacks from when I had to that exact member on a truck above two drive axles. But the fuel tank looks fabulous! Thanks Matt and the crew for giving me and my family fun content that’s actually family friendly! ❤
As a retired UPS guy, I just want to let you know that your driver was cussing you that morning. Leaf springs are the worst thing to have in the back of a package car.
That "Brought To You By" segment was hilarious
Yea but wasn't there supposed to be a letter and a number?
I'm sorry but my favorite part of this was, "The second I put my headphones on Peanut is GONE, she's out of here." And Ed of course. It is always great to see Ed. Not that we don't care about you guys, we do but Ed is absolutely special. We love Ed.
Some gems so far: Ed's "Ya cut it off again??" Matt's "This is upside down, but it doesn't matter." I'm putting that on a T-shirt.
Put an XJ upside down with that caption.
@@michaelhancock9636 Ive seen the "if you can read this, flip me over" sticker on lots of jeeps.
@@ericperkins3078 Jokes on them...
I learned to read upside down decades ago...
😄😁😆😅😂🤣
Many people may disagree with you Matt but facts are facts. Over time, lots of new technology comes to play. Thing is that many do not understand the rules never change. I give you a lot of credit for the challenge of making it your way and yet still the same in application. You are not afraid of challenges and show real courage to stand up for these convictions. So it fails... not the end of the world because a new day and new idea will come to you. I am truly a old school mechanic and do understand this drawing your portraying. If we don't try then we are in a standstill and nothing gets done. This project is metal and it can be modified to this application given you just keep trying.
From the other side of the big water I say....Helleluyha, you are so right.
A tape measure makes sure it's precise. Eyeballing makes sure it's correct.
my favourite foreman used to say i had the best eye for detail

Reasons I like this channel.
1. You learn from it. While maybe not allows the best way to do something, just take from it what you want and stop being so critical of the work.
2. The way information is presented, as well as the variety of content. It's informative while being entertaining.
3. Adding in movie, music and show references completes why it's such a good channel overall.
Matt and crew. Thanks for sharing your visions, your work and everything else with us, your audience.
Measure Once, Cuss Twice is the way my dad taught me.
This is amazing! Definitely gotta use this now. Thankyou. And thank your pops for me too
And then creep up on it, right? I was taught it was three steps. Measure, cut, cut, creep up on it.
Measure three times, cut once; say a bad word, get new piece, start over...
Buy your Dad a drink and say thanks from UA-cam land
Too funny😂
Ed in amazement. "Your cutting it off again?"
You're
Old Blue is starting to look like something cool already! The good thing about your team is that they don't get concerned by little problems and continue resolving them as they arise. Matt your "vision" is becoming real now. Wondering if any of your kids would consider learning/studying a Computer Aided Design Program and do all your/their future programs on a computer. It would be a great tool to make your project a reality and to modify ideas with a lot of "what if" something is changed here or there. Also, a lot of the weights, dimensions and forms of the parts can be altered as you change the plan as the plan goes into production. Many ideas from previous projects are archived and can be reused in a new project. Something to consider especially for the younger generation. We usually don't continue doing things the way our grandparents did but we incorporate new technologies, materials, and designs as we go along.
Nahh... then most of the shXt will be right and mister......thats not how it works in the man cave or the shed. Friends, some family, discussions, drinks and a burger...thats the way it has to be.
What is this computer you speak of?
Rudy already does that sort of thing.... CAD is mostly gReat for top down development - and PRODUCTION (oops CaPs locked again), cardboard - (TM AvE) aided designM, is fantastic for "whataboutwetrythis"... NOW...
@@kadmow Haven't seen AvE in my feed in quite a while. about to go binge.
Thank you.
"The future is NOW, old man!"
Also, I'm pretty sure that leaf spring drawing has earned a place on the art wall.
One thing I love about Matt is he is pretty smart and nut and the same time, very easy to watch.
The closing song and dance number was worth the price of admission. The lyrical content; the choreography! Instant Matt’s classic. 😂
The song used at the end, used to be the regular ending to the episodes and I've always liked it. Glad to hear it being used again, even if on occasion.
@@johnhpalmer6098 +1
Help me out guys..... I have run and rerun..... give me a Min-Sec number for the S & D........ I changed the final drive pulley on my yard tractor/workhorse..... measured/guessed/eyeballed and got it right !!!!! (Third time)
Ok, After watching this channel for quite some time. It seems to me that Matt has a real gift and passion for building and designing off road recovery vehicles more than doing the actual recoveries. Just sayn'.... Not that he doesn't do both incredibly well but... What about the manufacturing of off road recovery vehicles for sale! These machines are incredible and capable! I am sure there is a demand. What a business venture! Recovery and Manufacturing! As always, great video. Safe Travels
- IF he were to have to buy these vehicles he would eed more recoveries than the USA market provides,making them in the downtime teaches the youngsters who are keen a trade.... And results in awesome one-off vehicles... (remember Matt trialing a 5Ton and dismissing it as useless in the sand.. I await the verdict on this 6x6 (walking beam beats limited non load share articulation) . ???
that's kinda like me spending more time building houses in "the SIMS" than actually playing the simulator mode.
He's definitely the gifted one though
He built Robby’s Deja Blue.
Watch closer. Matt's passion is for extended family...and the beautiful Jaymie (sp?).
Holding my three week old son, and watching Matt work with his son's, is beyond inspirational!❤
Do you use "Welcome To The Machine" by Pink Floyd as a lullaby? "409" by the Beach Boys is a great alarm tune also.That may improve his chances of being a gearhead too ;)
Professor Matt at the white board teaching off road physics ROCKS!!!!
Draws near-perfect circles, too.
I thought it was going to be an anatomy lesson there for a second
The Spud Truck is turning out awesome! I love the banter between everyone. What a great way to start my morning.
Spudtruckers😅
GOD IS LIFE NOT DEATH. NO NECROMANCERS😢😅😊 JEALOUSY IS AS CRUEL AS DEATH..
Matt, your thoroughness and patience to explain to us 4x4 Noobs is AWEsome. It's what makes this channel fun and informative all together, Thanks for what you do. AAaannnd to explain, share and teach everyone on your team equally so they stay members of the MOOR TEAM!!! Not everyone can teach tricky material, you can though!!! AM impressed with the V-Ice riff too!!!
I absolutely love how Matt handles UA-cam trolls. It makes it so much better
The project is coming along great. I appreciate all that hard work. Working under the suspended load of the rollback bed with the Telehandler scares me a lot. It can be very deadly. Please invest in some type of high-level (tall) jackstands or someway to block that up to keep everybody safe.
Came here to say the same thing. That was definitely a "Safety 3rd" kind of deal.
100% thought the same thing. They could even build something quick just as a safety backup. It would probably never be a problem but the consequences of that low percentage are catastrophic. Simple Risk/Reward or Risk/consequences analysis.
I really like this channel, but it does amaze me how risky these guys can be. They should spend some time watching You Tube videos of rigging fails and crane fails.
One big mouse trap for sure, I'm definitely not Joe safety, but that is a bad one.
Matt as someone who runs a HD rollback daily u recommend running rear bags only with an air dump option. It is an absolute life saver in certain situations.
That really is a good idea. Where were you when he was making his drawings in the middle of the night.
@chadd9637 depends which night it was. Maybe working maybe sleeping
I thought that was the only option when you have a bagged ride.
Well this isn't a heavy duty rollback, and he really doesn't have clearance for a link suspension.
@@manuelve1998 I'm talking about a 550hp 10 speed semi rollback. Not a f450 lol
I gotta say, I know it's on YT and you all know you are filming, but the attitude in the shop amd all the smiles are telling. Great work environments make for fulfilling jobs, way to go Matt, and crew 👍🏻✌🏻
I have not told you 5 times but should have…….YOU GUYS ROCK! x5….every weekend we have coffee and watch a couple of your videos! We love you guys.
Ed took the words right out of my mouth, “you’re cutting the frame again?”
I love seeing everybody working so hard, makes me smile. Thanks for explaining the rear driver line. I knew you were not going to have a problem when I saw the Alcan sponsor. Leave your self room to add airbags later if you aren’t already planning them. 2 parallel links make great traction bars. Thanks for the entertainment!
You guys are working under the suspended roll back bed. Possibly the most dangerous thing I've seen here
It disturbed me as well. It's like using a jack with no stands. Love this channel though!
Ya I've never felt the need to comment on safety before... everyone has worn their safety squints one time or another... but holy crap
Heck yea, came here looking for this comment
I just went into the comments to say something like that. I was all nervous through that whole scene.
They are really starting to push the limits of carelessness and recklessness and it’s going to bite them at some point
Matt and crew you all are just soo much fun to watch! I am recovering from a severe work injury. Watching you and your crew work and have fun makes me feel better. If I get down in the dumps I can always count on you and the crew to cheer me up. Thank you all for being yourselves and soo entertaining at the same time!
Matt, I don't know if you are a visionary or half a bubble of plumb. But either way, it's a ball watching to see what you'll do.
We like having the family in the shop and on recoveries. (nothing wrong with the folks in the past, but this an 11% improvement). A happy group of people.
Yeah it is a little unusual but I'm glad they are are getting along well
Love the family, greatly miss TomTom !
@kennethalbert4653 he's been doing regular uploads on his channel tho :)
Katelynn is the Queen of throwing shade 😎
But she is delightful!
Her attitude is awesome, her a Jake seem like buddies that can throw friendly shade 😂 The smile she gets while driving the race car and hot doggin' in the dunes is priceless.
But it scares me with all the heavy stuff dropping that she wears tenny shoes .
I have got to say that I love her a hell of a lot more than I liked Lizzy, she had this attitude like I am very unapproachable. kaitlin looks like she's a whole lot different than that.
300 mm, 30 cms about 12"! Interesting term for your "diamond plate," we call that (and I'm spelling it as it sounds) checkerplate here in Aus. As to your rear diff set up Matt you should check out out 6wd Landrovers the army had built here in Aus. The rear diff is disengaged when in highway mode so trails as a lazy axle till needed then a switch on the dash brings it in to operation when required.
As an American, now I’m going to call it checkerplate just to see how confused people get 😂. And those trucks sound cool, going to look that up!
@@BFT88 Just add "spanners" to your vocabulary, and a C-clamp is a G-clamp. 😁
I always called it treadplate but I purchased some recently and they didn’t know what that was. Oh, you mean diamond plate was the response.
@@dougerrohmer I’ll try that out too! 😂
(Perentie - the name for the 6x6 Landrover Aus Army)
"our" - do a quick edit...
Haha - Chequer Plate - as in a Chequer board (Chess, for the intellectual folk).. Alternating directions of stripey squares... Diamond plate has "diamonds" alternating, call it all 'tread plate" for funsies....
One thing Matt. Your leaf springs will need shackles on the rear end to allow them to straighten out under load. The way they are isnt going to work out very well 👍
"thats about 300mm" and as soon as matt said it, you see the pain in katelynns eyes. 😂😂
That’s why Matt uses inches because he guesses off by half in metric, sorry Matt it’s over 600 millimeters.
This is the comment I came to find after getting my calculator out.
Perfectly correct, for Imperial-sized millimetres.
I immediately thought “609mm”. Apparently I do a lot of conversions.
NOISE
Working under that tilt bed gives me the heebie-jeebies. At least park an XJ or two under it 😂
Ratchet straps for overhead lifting, if OSHA ever drops by the shop they would have a seizure.
@jamesnichols7507 it's gonna happen one of these days. They post it on the internet for the whole world to see. Hopefully they stop by before an accident happens. Working under that bed like that is flirting with disaster
Exactly my problem when watching this i thougt they wanted to die there people who dies every year from stupidity just like that
Agree 100%. They have a lot of safety learning to do.
Hey, it's only $17,500 per violation max. 😅😅😅
I think the reason why you have such a great success with your videos is that unlike SOME youtubers, you hang the bar low. You prove to Joe Average that one doesn't have to be brain-surgeon accurate and rocket scientist smart to achieve something absolutely awesome.
It warms my heart to see the whole MORR crew working on so many tasks all at the same time, but pulling together to help each other out whenever needed. Keep up the great work everybody!
Wow, that was a very busy video, the gas tank looked amazing, well done Matt and team, you are all doing a brilliant job, Thank you for sharing, I really enjoyed watching.
I love it when the Sunday videos get posted early enough to watch while eating breakfast!
The new upload time works great for us Aussies too. Comes out around 10pm Sunday rather than near midnight. Always stayed up for it anyway but this is way better for mondayitis reduction.
We thoroughly look forward to watching your videos each week - great team, of great fun people - the balance of workshop creativity, builds, and retrofits, combined with all the off road rescues, interspersed with honest reports from Matt, when he does occasionally make a mistake, and then discusses how he could have done it better, is a real positive, not a negative, and makes this a really great channel worth watching, as we can all learn together.
It is fun watching the good times you all have doing this. Plus I learn something, too. A REQUEST: Would you do a video for each vehicle you made, the Banana, Morvair and the Wrecker to show what each is made for, what equipment each has, what gear is carried, and all the controls? These would be great videos! Thanks for these videos!
I'm not normally one to do the internet safety police thing, but the guys working under that bed suspended from the forward reach is a bozo move. It takes one seal on the hydraulics giving up the ghost and you have 3-4 guys that become squish pie.
The zoom-boom has protection valves to prevent that. The non-rated lifting straps/rope are the big concern for me.
@@akdoug6437Yeah because if Matt is known for one thing above all other things, is his attention to routine maintenance.
Never has he ever dragged out a piece of equipment from seasonal storage only for the tracks to fall off, just minutes into a job.
What a great upload today, laughed a bunch and loved the added spice including the head tilt for emphasis at the end.
I like that ending song. I remember when you used to use it at the ends of your videos years ago.
Matt answered a lot of the questions I had in my mind from the last video. Especially the articulation of the back axles with a drive shaft attached to the forward rear axle. ;-) Can't wait to see it in action. The thing I like about this show, if something does not work out the way Matt intended, he will show us and explain what went wrong.
Sizzler's is still around? Nah. I don't think so. The Disney Land line was great.
3:35 “Demolish this…without ruining it” 🤣
Loving this build, many chuckles amongst the crew and the watchers. Thanks guys.
You seem to be having even more fun as the years roll by: you gently heckle the hecklers while educating the rest of us viewers. Well done sir! P.S. Lovin’ it! My favorite evening video entertainment
2:19 Time to rewatch those episodes on the "Pakistani Truck " channel!! ..
You are holding the ENTIRETY of the tools needed (random bar of steel and sledge hammer)
.... to disassemble any truck down to the last rivet!! (according to the videos I've seen on "Pakistani Truck " channel) .. Just the technique must be incorrect???
Maybe if you all changed footwear to sandals??
Thank you for going over the suspension and drivetrain details. I saw last week's and was confused but confident you had answers for every commenter's gripes. The limited articulation solves the driveline angle problem, but what kind of impact will it have on offloading ability? And the different size tires? This is the most interesting build series I've seen, keep up the great work
Floatation in the front, lower bed in the rear.
Alcan is awesome. I had a built out Colorado with a 6" BDS lift that used 4" blocks in the rear that gave me major axel wrap. Talked through the whole suspension with Alcan factoring in the additional weight from the aftermarket bumpers, payload capacity, and overall ride height. They made me up a custom set of leaves that let me ditch the block lift entirely and it rode like it was brand new again both on the pavement and on the trails. On top of it all they were cheaper than any other options. Couldn't agree more on recommending Alcan springs.
LOVE what you're doing with the truck. I am still concerned as to the plan to fix the passenger side rocker and door. Maybe when you're done, send it to Robby and have him body work it out then match the faded blue as close as he can and respray the whole cab?
I love the faded blue, but if the body can be worked back to original without harming paint, I would love to see this buffed, polished, and waxed.
One of your best videos. Every employee (cast member?) participates well. Exceptional editing
Really big fan all the way from South-Africa.💯💯💯
Any good off-road trails there ❓
@@maotisjanof course.
I learned about Africa in Blood Diamond.
@@maotisjanLots, we have a very large offroad community here
Hey all, love your show, I’m not much of a mechanic, I can do a service not wat, and not much of a 4WDer, just a different life style, but find myself intrigued by your build and design of off-road vehicles. Loved the heavy wrecker and bombie, and find myself waiting for the next spud truck show. Awesome show guys and love how Matt doesn’t take over too much unless needed, and letting the crew do there thing. Very refreshing, nice work 💪
Great explanation of the gear ratio's and the drive lines. Nice to see Peanut helping.
Keep up with the good work love watching you on UA-cam god bless
I got a chuckle about the ice cream sandwich part. It reminded me of when you and Paul used to visit each other and swipe Mt Dews. That was some good laughs. Peanuts always there to give a slurp to anyone she can. This trucks really taking shape.
*- Complex engineering done with unschooled smarts, And well explained without fancy language. Good on you, Matt !*
Thanks for taking the time to explain the suspension, Matt. I was really struggling to understand how an off-road vehicle with a rollable back and leaf springs would cope when it needed to flex.
The answer is, it'll lift a wheel or two.
I'm guessing that the roll-back 6x6 spud truck won't be going all the same kinds of places that you take the banana, the morrvair and the wrecker.
The gas tank is sweet!
Matt, before you start a big job like this where you need so many holes drilled into the frame then you should pickup a good magnetic drill. I used a Milwaukee for years. Just have to be careful not to pull the power cord that powers the magnet so it doesn’t fall off and land on your foot. It’s better for you and the drill bits. I tie a knot in the power cord so it can’t fall off and you can change one wall plug to a twist lock plug and receptacle so that end stays in. 🍦🏝️
Yes excactly!
We had a magdrill fall 60 feet, during a steel erection project. someone down on the ground needed our ex cord. The drill landed in a relatively soft sandy area, the only damage to the drill was a slight wobble, {bent the shaft}. We were lucky that nobody was under, when it fell, a hard hat would not have saved anyone.
Thank you, I've been wanting to leave that comment every time I see Matt drill a frame, but kinda slipped my mind. Great tool, hear that Matt? We want you to get a frame drill, please?
@@user-fc6nr1zd6fat that height you need a safety rope attached.
I used one and if it's on its side or upside down I connect a basic safety chain in case the power is cut. Surely everyone does.
BY FAR the most exciting build on the channel... and it just continues to get more interesting. I am super curious about how this rear drive-line setup will perform and function. Even after you explained it I am still questioning the clearances, but only because I have never seen one in person.
I love where this channel is going and how comfortable you and the team are on camera now. Golden content and consistently. 👌👏
bolts and welds is the strongest joint you fan get, good job guys. don't sweat the haters!
I feel sorry for your Milwaukee drill. You need a small MAG drill
Good MoRRning!
I love seeing the love and work going into Stubby. Can't wait to see it in action.
1:45 Matt is ready to cut rivets!! ..
As you know rivets are fastened on red hot!, With a special die called a "Rivet Set", (it forms the plain end of the rivet into that familiar shape, so it looks just like the other end)
Virtually all automotive rivets use the same size rivet set .. these Rivet Sets last for a VERY long time, they actually get better with age..... The company I worked for SOLD the Rivet Sets to the company that supplied them to GM
I used to run a Browne & Sharpe Automatic 2G Screw machine (like an old fashioned automatic lathe), The machine was manufactured in accordance to "The War Measures Act" that's how old it was :)
.... For almost 20 years ... I made every Rivet Set that GM used in Canada and many in the USA, on the Screw Machine mentioned :)
It's entirely possible, the rivets Matt is cutting off, were set with a Rivet Set that I made :)
Matt is def my fave character on UA-cam 😂😂 love him. He’s so goofy ❤
Thanks for the early posts lately ! I don't have to wait til after watching the 9 am EST sunday video to start being productive with my weekend work.👍🏽😎👍🏽
The new upload time works great for us Aussies too. Comes out around 10pm Sunday rather than near midnight. Always stayed up for it anyway but this is way better for mondayitis reduction.
They've been getting longer too, so you can finish them early as well!
Leaf springs extensions are excellent idea! Looks rather ridged frame overall!! Keep up great work!🙏🏼
The Spud truck is coming along nicely! It will be fun to see it work alongside the other recovery rigs in your stable Matt! Take care of your 'eyecrometer' so you can continue to use it so well!
So, my 13 yr old daughter just walked up and asked, “where’s the banana?”. I told her this is a new build called the ‘spud truck’. She just said, “No, it needs to be called the ‘Pickle truck’”. Is that because it will get you out of a pickle?? She says yes. 😂 🥒
Measure twice, cut once... and when it doesn't fit, claw hammer in place.
"Matt tolerances"
Thank you Matt and crew for the update on the Spud Truck Rollback !
“we got the three amigos out here” - self-irony is one the best habits in general and I like MORRs crew behaviour in that regard.
Always very entertaining. Thank you guys.
That was a nice Cherokee at the start of the video
Good morning you guys are up bright and early
Wow, that truck frame is not only very thick but it's got double rails. The thing was built like an absolute tank!!
Matt, you ought to put some adjusters between the axels so with a change to smaller tires and have some tracks made up, instant half track roll back for those pesky winter problems.
My favorite MORR videos are the Sunday build videos!
A follower from Kenya 🇰🇪
Try Fab Rats. Way better channel.
Spud Back is gonna be awesome. Fab Rats has the "Rat Back" , MORR has the "Spud Back".
I'm thoroughly impressed with your tire drawing abilities.
You could put spacers under the gas tank to raise up so you don't have to add a neck to the gas tank.
Nice idea... occurs to me, don't want to raise the center of gravity, especially of a side-to-side sloshing liquid
Should have had Tom Tom build a gas tank.
@@AlWorth9738 Much cheaper to just buy it. The material alone would probably cost more than the tank they bought.
Within HALVES of INCHES! 😆
With a very high precision. Not a quarter inch of tolerance!

9:04 Tears on my pillow. Damb Matt, you have an eclectic taste in music!
Katelynn, please keep being you and continuing to wear PPE at work, and encourage others if you can! I wish my dad did this. Certain kinds of shop work can be impactful to long-term health without the right protective gear, so I appreciate seeing you wear a mask and safety glasses (and gently chiding Matt as well)!
cut by cut, starting with a heavy truck, ending with a suzuki samurai
Good evening, it's another day in my Ham Shack watching Matt and the crew!
73!
I was just watching your "no measurements video" and thought of something when you talked about the water soaked rag in the gas can for welding. My old service manager used to weld the steel gas tanks on the fire trucks (with some gas in them) by getting a used car off the lot, starting it up and connecting the rubber hose that was used to go through the garage door in the winter and connect it to the tail pipe and run it to the filler pipe on the tank. He said the carbon monoxide replaced the oxygen and it couldn't ignite inside the tank without oxygen. He never blew up.
I'm not an OSHA kind of guy but that's a lot of faith in those straps and that hydrolic system... I'd highly encourage a potential energy accident training course in the near future.
Awesome video 👍
Great job again.
So wise , Thank You. A fine example of Creative engineering , design , and Expert construction.
Love the outro of Matt laying on the frame petting peanut. It caught me off guard enough that I laughed out loud at work.. lol
Nice hat, Jake.
It is amazing how smart Peanut is. Such an awesome companion❤️
Always enjoy the fabrication and details.
thank you for the in depth explanations to give on how things work , I really appreciate it. not that I will be building anything like this ever in my life but I do like knowing how things work so I can 1)make repairs or troubleshoot issues and 2- because knowing how things work is helpful in preventing me from breaking things. I think this is why so many people drive like total maniacs all the time and do dumb things with their trucks/jeeps, they do not understand anything that is going on underneath the hood or in the transmission drive line ect. so they just push it till it breaks.
