“Safety Alert: Dude at 42:24 you came really close to catching your hand in that boom pulley. I was a crane operator and rigger for 43 years. Please be careful never put your hand or body parts in pinch points.
I thought the same thing.
Especially with gloves on too, you're almost always better off using bare hands because you might feel the danger before it's too late. Gloves can catch in pulleys and drill presses, etc. and then your whole hand follows it in.
Yea I flinched it was so close.
Yea, holy crap! That was almost a bad time!!
Hey thanks for everyone looking out! I have worked in the oil field for 5 years and the coal mine for 11 years and that was a close call! I was quick to pull my hand out as I felt an saw what was happening! In those 15 years of oil field and coal mine I have been injury free! Thanks again for everyone looking out!!
Whoa, hold up, in what universe is "I have to put it in 4WD" equal to "stuck"? If Hillbilly puts it in 4WD and STILL can't move, THEN he's stuck.
Once again the Boss hits the nail on the head! Don’t work on your snow cat in the winter!😅
That’s why she’s The Boss. 😉
This would have been a good job for Whiskers.... you guys gotta get that thing back in service ASAP! :)
Robbie a little piece of advice from an old man to young man. The only people don't remember that you worked overtime is your children and your wife.
Actually they will be the only one who will remember it. And in not positive way.
I know that to be correct!
Yup definitely take time.for them as a wife with 2 girls time away is time never gotten back. 8 hour a day work schedule is what u need to get down to. My parents were always gone when we were young it has affected us 3 kids all our lives. I'm 56 so its still bugging me. He is right. GOD FAMILY FRIENDS in that order 😊
The other way around 😂
Yep had a wife and 2 kids many years ago and all the overtime I worked gave me a ex-wife with two kids. And I would not recommend the overtime it was not worth the loss.. take care, guys.
Usually behind the fog light bezel there is threads to screw in the tow hook that is supplied in the tool kit where the spare tire is in the trunk. I had a 2004 STi for 16 years :)
No surprise he made it as far as he did! The best vehicle I've ever had in the snow was my '06 STI with Blizzaks. It was truly unstoppable and would just plow through snow. I've never even come close to driving anything else through 2.5 feet of snow like I did in that Scoob. The only reason I got stuck was because I backed in my driveway and it jacked up the rear end and sat it up on the underbody. Man, I miss that freakin car! 🤣
I feel that, I had an 05 legacy gt with built internals and a deadbolt turbo setup pushing 20lbs of boost. walked modified stis and never once got stuck in feet of snow, just rally blast everywhere sideways. Those things are sooo controllable with a smart right foot in the snow.
The only way my 06 impreza has gotten stuck was being high centered as long as you keep em moving they can go through any dry snow.
same here! had a 06 sti and using the center lock diff was a blast when getting stuck! Best snow car ever!
70 retired lineman diyer with a Subaru sti. Unstoppable in winter weather
Exedy stage 1 clutch
Was given a base model Scoobaroo unImpreza, didn't think I wanted it but with studded snows ,it is UNSTOPPABLE!!! And you can tow out a Scooby with another Scooby,they don't weigh much ,lol. Love from the icey Nor' East!!
Like school kids on a snow day! Loving the banter and vicariously loving the snow fun.
I like the addition of Colton to the team. Definitely fits in well
Much better than the other sideshow. Hard to believe the analytics don’t reflect that
I agree! I hope he stays. 🇨🇦
We read the analytics trust me …… but so far Colton is an awesome addition and he’s also a super fast learner! Let’s just say when his skill set improves even I better work harder or I might just get replaced!!! Thanks for watching
@@RobbyLayton he definitely is. He fits in so well with you guys
For sure, More Colton and way less Hillbilly word stumbling...
Just a suggestion , it would probably be a good idea to make sure that your chains fit and aren't broken before you head up the mountain...
The old red XJ is a million times better of a vehicle than the Trekker (Hillbilly’s sentimental value aside for the trekker). Never understood why that thing got parked back in the day and you didn’t put some work into it to keep around as a beater for recoveries.
Yea him calling it a “piece of crap” is really just admitting he couldn’t keep up with the maintenance 😭 that’s why he needs Matt to build him a decent rig
Yes, that could be his best recovery vehicle with just a few parts. By adding lockers front & back, the right size wheel & tire combo, small lift kit, a slip yoke eliminator and that thing would be unstoppable and would be able to go anywhere and do anything!
I was sad they just forgot it. I was hoping for a rebuild of it. Now that I've seen it again, I wonder why they got a different XJ for the Banana clone instead of that one.
Probably since the one Matt and crew are working on is later year model, the red one looked like a 91-92 year.
@34:44 I was laughing so hard when just because Colton used to drive a Subaru, his nickname became SubieNation! And the look on his Colton's face was hilarious. He's a great addition to your crew.
More doing, less talking. No need to explain what you're doing 15 times.
Yes there's a tow point in the bumpers, there is a small 2"x2" square panel that pop's off and in the trunk there should be an eye bolt that screws into there.
That is true for very light duty towing or strapping it down for transport. Those will break or strip out if you try and use them for a recovery or towing very far.
in 42 years road side recovery in the uk never had one break off its what there for.
There's a couple of points behind/below the fronts bumper where you can hook into the frame itself. These are the recommended points on the gen 6 Outbacks, and this looks like a gen 6 WRX.
@@nigelgarland5767Done much towing in 10+ inches of snow on mountains? Off road? Doubt it.
subie nation dude was picking at it at the start..so close yet so far..takes entire bumper off...we can screw something in this hole...dude check the trunk..hook was prob with tire straight entertainment
Never understood why people wait till they are stuck in 2wd before they lock the hubs and put it in 4wd, Seems really dumb to me, if ya put in 4wd at first sign of bad conditions you wouldn't get stuck in the first place and have to get out in the crap to lock hubs and such. not such a big deal in snow but having to get out and lock hubs in a mud hole is just making a mess in your truck
You guys really need lockers, front and back, on any of your recovery rigs going off road.
I love your videos but would Like if you guys would stop mocking hillbilly so much, every little thing becomes some im better than hillbilly thing, carrying the packout (who let go first) (hillbilly getting stuck) NO HE DIDNT GET STUCK ... How about we mock Colton for clearly turning the hub locker backwards when locking in hubs.. that was DUMB and worthy of mocking... i know its all in fun but it gets really old ..Hillbilly is guilty of it also (who stripped roof faster on wiskers) ANY WAY KEEP UP THE GREAT CONTENT.. LOVE YOUR VIDEOS...I Am an automotive paint sales rep .. British Columbia Canada
Robby is a bully!
How come you don't use the recovery points on the front of that vehicle. Isn't there some type of device or the spare tire is that you screw into the front bumper for towing?
Love the recoveries, I'm always surprised you never put lockers in your recovery equipment.
I know i want to put a posi in back of my 97 f350. Im around same wieght im guessing. My is a 7.3ps with structural steel 11ft flatbed vs having a 460 with wrecker bed
I liked the tactical retreat, it made perfect sense. Sometimes it's the best plan. Nice job, thanks for sharing. I need some Whiskers videos. 👍
Never question the capability of a Subaru. I would always get funny looks in college climbing hills in the mountains in my bugeye..
Subys are beasts in the snow I had an Impreza that would constantly surprise me in the snow.
Truck guys hate that my WRX moves around in the snow better than them.
@@VorgtoThe only thing truck guys hate is pulling a wittle subaru out of the snow when they high center… that whole mentality of assuming truck owners dislike subaru is bs. We dont care… hate to burst your ego.
@@Wooooptywoop sounds to me like you care. Otherwise you wouldn't have had to mention pulling Subarus out of the snow and wouldn't have commented. Stay how you are, I like having people to laugh at. Edit: Also I said "My WRX". English is hard, so I understand your confusion.
My impreza has a 3" lift and a inch and a half wheel base stretch to keep the 29" tires outa the doors its a tank in the snow I take it in to the back country to get fire wood and Cruz all over the desert and it never let's me down
So happy you all made the good call to come back and enjoy holiday with families first. 👍🥰. BTW Robbie the bungie cord thingies for the tire chains are called “Snubbers”. Keep up with the great videos guys ❤️
The only reason that soob is there is because he roasted the clutch, wouldve made it out by itself for sure
I can’t believe you guys don’t wear polarized sunglasses. 🕶️ 😎
In addition to protecting your eyes and skin, create such definition in everything you’re looking at. Perfect in snowy conditions as well. Once you go polarized, you would never go back.
These guys a crazy. No shades, good hat no good coats or goretex ? Baseball hats are not warm I lived I Alaska 18 years. We were dialed even back in the 1990s.
Draped in North Face warm to -30°.
I hate polarized glasses. It's like beer goggles with a side of headache
@@Desertquartz79 They were at +30. Shirt sleeve weather in my world. But polarized sunglasses- definitely. Night blind for 6 weeks after 15 minutes in bright sunlight.
Polarized glasses in those conditions can actually be a bad idea. They get rid of glare but glare is usually the best way of spotting ice.
@wssides OH OK I've only camped at -60° in the Alaska Range for a week. Sure glad you know more about cold than I do. Oh wait I've been working outdoors for 30 years too. 🤔
Why is it that Robbie and Matt waited till winter to start working on their snow cats?
BSF did the same thing. Although in BSF's defense, they don't do recoveries as part of a business, they volunteer for off-road clubs.
Robby, get a couple sets of really good, heavy duty cam lock tire chains. One pair for the front and one for the rear.
MUCH cheaper than lockers and you will still be able to go just about anywhere that you should try to go.
Edit: If I would have waited about 30 seconds before posting my comment, I would have found out that you found out
that you already have chains 🙂
now he just needs chains that fit.
Let's get a build series on that toyota. That things got potential.
"A problem is just another opportunity to fix something". That's profound! ( T-shirt?)
"Don't pull apart your snowcat in the middle of winter" Another good one.
Awsome work Robby!! Always fun to watch some Utah snow-sledding ;)
I WOULD THINK WITH SOMEONE THAT HAS AN AUTO SHOP SHOULD BE ABLE TO FIX THE GAS GAUGE ON FRED LOL 😂 😂
the wrx was a rally champion for a reason lol
Robby talkin smack to Hillbilly, while Robbys been in 4 wheel, the Whole time. 😅😅😅
Subaru's "Symmetrical all wheel drive" is a real thing and makes for some interesting viewing if anyone wants to watch some UA-cam vids about it.
To be fair to Fred, any small truck with a decent amount of power and good tires is going to out-do a one-ton dually in the snow. Duallies are notoriously bad in the snow since you have four fat tires in the back trying to plow through the deep stuff. Plus Fred probably weighs twice as much as Hillbilly's truck so it wants to sink in rather than float on top.
As to getting stuck: We always had two categories for this back in my off-roading days. You were either stuck or you were temporarily immobilized. Stuck is when you need to get outside assistance to get moving again. Temporarily immobilized is when you stop moving, but are able to get back on the trail without getting pulled out. You might have to dig or rock back and forth for a while but if you can get yourself out you're not stuck.
Wow ..I really like Robbie & crew.
And I'd gladly let Robbie paint anything I own (If I could afford it, I'm sure I can't) .
But after watching this,
If there is ever a time my old 2006 is trapped on a mountain by snow?
I'll wait for the spring thaw or whatever; before I'd ask for him to do the rescue.
Just Say'n.
I'm with Hillbilly on this. If turning on 4wd gets you going, you ain't stuck.
Really appreciate the videos you folks post! Nice to see them so often! Have a blessed 2024!
Thats a pretty nice subaru. Thank you for being careful with it. Nice recovery men! 👍
Nice work getting it off the mountain. 2 clips and zip ties is an interesting way to secure a bumper cover. 42:19 Colton, you need to be careful around winches. Came pretty close to being pulley food. Since you weren't working the winch things could have gone badly for your right hand between your yell and Robbie's stopping the winch. That would have left a mark. Though UA-camrs joke about it, attention to safety needs to job one.
if you have a lot of condensation in the crank case. I would check out the ventilation system.
With a multi million dollar shop and all the equipment in the world you would think that Robbie would have at least the basic tools on the wrecker.
you would think at least one person there would have a clue too
Yeah, like some decent snow chains.
My god, look at the vehicles they use for their recoveries. If that motley crew showed up with those junk vehicles, I’d make another call. It’s no wonder insurance companies don’t recommend them.
@@scottmichaels12
The vehicles they are using are for non-standard recoveries. Robbie Layton's has rollback for regular recoveries the rollback wouldn't be the vehicle for this job unless it was to haul the wrecker to the snow line. That's a "off-road recovery" being the road is closed due to weather conditions.
The keyboard kings make me laugh you all are so great behind the keyboard 🤣🤣 I will go buy all brand new equipment so my image is better fit for your standards maybe if we had all new recovery equipment we would “have a clue” oh and I will for sure go buy decent snow chains that for sure would have made it easier and maybe then we would be up to the internets standards!! No actually I’m going to keep doing exactly what I’m doing mainly because I can and it sure upsets you “professionals” 🤷♂️
Great crew. Fun to watch. But the boss always adds something extra.
Yea....something nice to look at
Much like where you live, I live in an area that typically gets quite a bit of snow every winter. Once the snow starts flyin,
I lock in the hubs and leave them locked in until I know I won't need them. That way I don't have to get out and turn them in
if I spin out. Just pull the lever and keep goin. Makes life much easier.
I mean Subarus are beast in the snow! Kid doesn't know how to drive or he probably wouldn't have even gotten stuck to begin with..
Driving in snow we have three levels of stuck. 1. Caught - you need to rock it a bit. 2. Stuck you have to get out and dig. 3. Burried - you have to get help.
My first job after college was with the Dept of Wildlife in africa doing anti-poaching patrols. I was issued a brand spanking new Trekker. Sorry Hillbilly but that was a piece of junk. After almost a year of nonstop whining they gave me a SuperSafari ( Nissan Patrol in other markets ) Now THAT is a vehicle to chase fleeing poachers.
If you disconnect the rear driveshaft from the pinion flange you can tie it up and tow it with the just the back tires rolling.
Stop all the shenanigans. You are having way too much fun. Good employee, employer relationship. I wish I had that much fun on my job. I retired in 2022 and I absolutely don’t miss it. Mainly because I hated it. 26 years of torture.
Are you ever going to get lockers in the trekker?
And Fred…..
Sorry, Robby -
You're supposed to be a recovery professional. You should have put Fred in 4-wheel drive and locked the hubs as soon as the pavement ended. I'm very disappointed in you.
This is your clue that Fred needs lockers before he needs a lift and long arms.
Too much blow, tack and static meaning..., snark and sarcasm is not banter.. too much emphasis on childish two-way conversation, not enough on the tasks at hand. From a personal stand point, the content premise and main purpose of this channel has all but lost its focus, it's has evolved into something totally different, not necessarily in a good way. As a suggestion it's probably a good time as any to start off the new year to reflect back to the early days of this channel and look for ways to improve quality entertainment not only to retain subscribers but to attract more.
Once the car is loaded up you add 50% more traction and if you have a fully extended wheel lift you increase it even more and yes I drove wrecker for 30 years
Yes Robbie, an engine can get random condensation in it. If you sit and idle for long period of time, or if you start it and shut it off before it can get to temperature like at a shop pulling it in and out of bays for example every day. Not saying thats what happened to ol Billy of the Hills truck but thats just some examples!!
I love the snow i wish i lived where it snows like that!! Snow wheeling is fun as heck plus its beautiful to see the mountains all covered like that!!
And most Toyota's drip condensation out of the exhaust when you start them . Best trucks out there . ( Toyota) take out your old tools again .
@@davestevens4263 Every IC engine does that.
R-O-B-B-Y. His name is literally the channel name, yet so many of his followers misspell it all the time. 🙄🤦♂️
Ahh, Americans. In Europe people drive in these kind of conditions with Subarus, Quattro, xdrives etc. Unless the snow is so deep it warrants an suv, awd sedan will easily make up hills like that. The snow honestly didn't seem too deep except for that one corner. The benefit of awd sedans is that they're a lot lighter than suvs so that helps.
I had a 2001 2.5rs impreza and that thing was like no other AWD car that I've ever owned. I would purposely go out driving in snow storms or freezing rain and drive up the steepest hills i could find. Never even came close to getting stuck.
yep, i had a 1996 impreza. same.
Will someone please get that blue turd scrapped, It offends my 👀's. To be totally honest you haven't got a decent vehicle in the fleet.
Maybe once matt builds the XJ, We can only live in hope.
Im voting for posy front and rear on King Fred. My Ford has all 4 tires driving when I lock it in, and I love it.
Hillbilly was right, he wasn't stuck. He didn't need a recovery.
Finally a video outside the shop! (Btw that Jeep 18:23 looks like something that you could have brought with you up there) 🥰🥰
You made a good decision two days prior, now you just bring chains. Why didn't ya just bring the snow cat, just in case? Try smarter, not harder! Just say'n
Subura are actually pretty stinking good in the snow
never seen such dumes you got money go buy the right changs
I could sit here all day and watch you guys play and work up ephraim canyon keep it up team!!!
Three 12 year Olds that have their own You Tube channel. Smart wise choices went out the window last year with the Telehandler recovery.
Solving problems on the fly as they happen. Matt would be proud. Also, great advice on the call 911 thing. If it is getting dark and you are stuck and don't know what to do call 911 and tell them you are stuck and it is getting dark. This is a life threatening situation, so like Robbie said call the experts. Also make sure you have at least warm clothing, and a blanket in your car in cold weather just in case you break down and have to wait for someone.
Local man surprised that a car with a model that stands for World Rally Experimental, renowned for rallying through snow, made it so far through snow.
Seeing you guys outside without gloves kinda makes me jealous, we have been sitting at -18 Fahrenheit and colder for a week now in western Finland 😄
Needs to be less conflict between Robbie and Hillbilly. I can't watch anymore of this.
Robby sucks
Ah, the Christmas Eve when everyone in the crew became 7 year old children.... 😁
lol I'm surprised they didn't use the tow hook. how long have they been towing? like every car on the road from the early 2000s has the cap that you take off and screw in the tow hook.
What I’ve found when I used to do off road recoveries: Subarus can get you into trouble but they can’t get you out.
Yea easy to get yourself in trouble but ive also pulled out trucks with my impreza so it balances out lol
Funny that you pointed that out. In 1999 Christmas Eve I saw someone who slid off road and stuck on highway going south from Bloomington IL. I turned around and offered to help him in my XJ, he didn't want to be pulled out because my vehicle had GA tags. It was my rock crawler lifted, lockers and setup. My response was Merry Christmas and I turned around in front of his stuck car drove through the snow in the ditch and left, heading back to hospital where my mother was.
@@taylorforster9256 had one out on a snowmobile trail. Got a good few miles in till he broke through the hard pack. Got him out in 2wd in an old rusty half ton Chevy that was set up for off road recoveries.
Head gsk on the trekker also deck the block and resurface the head. It over heated and warped 😉
Love your recovery video's! They're always fun.
Pretty sure the boss lady, answer was correct " the moral of the story, don't tear apart the snow cat in the winter!" 😢 I don't know if you have enough count your blessings already, amen.
Your current prayers are being processed and good deeds, please reaffirm your Jesus faith, amen.🙏🤍🕊🕊🕊
As long as you get yourself out you are not suck! I take my 2 wheel drive all over the place. Winch it or what ever it takes, as long as its all you and no one else you AINT stuck!
“Move your shi….move your ride!!!” Lmao 😂 good save 10:57
Quick question that came up in my mind with the herd of turtles comment…
Would a herd of turtles be considered a terd or a hurtle? Asking for a friend.
Robbie looked like he was in pain having to make the decision to not risk it. So much fun to watch. 😂
How is it that you don’t know his name is spelled R-O-B-B-Y? It’s literally the name of the channel. 🤦♂️
80's model Subaru's (Leone) wagons had an adjustable torsion bar rear suspension (with a hole under the rear seats with an access port) and adjuster bolts on the front struts, and a dual range transfer case with 4LO / 4HI / FWD. With a factory LSD, they were quite capable when raised up because they are so light.
Lmao absolutely hilarious
Subarus are brilliant cars. I bet he could have made it across with nordic winter tires, like the Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5.
Robby I’m glad you know who the real BOSS is😂😂😂
You guys should really just stay in the paint booth and have people push food under the door. Or maybe, to much time in the paint booth is the problem? 🙂
As a Colorado native who's been stuck many times in much deeper snow, here's my advice for the kids; A set of tire chains costs less than a single mountain recovery. A lowered car with wide tires is a poor snow vehicle. Don't travel alone. Bring friends who can get out and push.
Subaru can’t use tire chains.
Very good advice. Also, 4x4s are usually the first ones to find the ditches in the winter.
@@randyhome1544 Why not? On this WRX I'd wrap them around the wing on the back for extra traction.
Chains work fine on Subarus you just have to run smaller tires so you have clearance and if you saw the Forest Service sign then you should know that chains are required to be kept in the vehicle all the time.
Seriously! You and Matt had all summer to do the Snow Cat jobs. But Nooooo! Wait until the last minute when you need it. Not such a brilliant move.
Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah grow up
Look whos yapping. Too poor to pay for a premium subscription too i bet
@@Wooooptywoopoh, coming from a joe biden supporter…..you’re so brave
Robbie, i'd like to know when you're gonna paint whiskers upgrade whiskers. You're snow Kitty needs some love. Some much love body and motor and track interior work. I know you love your snowcat but I want to see it look pretty like the bomb be.
I love watching you guys for the adventure and laughs !
I hope you guys had a great Christmas as well!! Also, Robby!!! Do you want to sell that red Jeep??
The “Boss” is always the voice of reason 😂😂
I agree with Hillbilly. You’re only stuck if you have to be pulled out. This includes your own winch.
FYI, most Subie’s have a tow eye in the spare tire compartment/trunk, it screws into the place up front you were talking about putting a bolt. You can also use the transport loops on the rear of the vehicle(the ones the car transporters use to bind down the cars on the carrier trailer).
and theres a reason why no recovery company ever uses them. DO NOT use these as a recovery point! as stated too, the bumper beam was removed. please pay attention.
The bumper beam was removed for the intercooler.
@@skateinspace They are perfectly fine for a situation like this - if a vehicle is really stuck, yeah maybe. But for typical pulling they are way more capable than needed. Even though this car didn't have it anymore.
@@kain0m not fine at all, but hey its your choice to put yourself and others in danger. good luck!
That kid loses points for not having a jdm tow point installed on the car, that’s a must, Subarus can go anywhere I use to drive mine around through 12-18” of snow all winter anymore than about “18 of powder and your eating snow too much, my Subaru was lifted struts at that point though
Colton is a yes man, at least Hunter disagrees with Paul from time to time.
Colton is pretty new at this, so he ought to be watching and learning. He'll have more input as he gets more experience, I am sure.
@@brianhaygood183 It's not about "experience" I been learning mechanics for about a year and a half So I am sure all these guys know way way more than I could ever. But I worked costumer service All my life, and I read people's behavior.
Your best workers usually disagree with management because... "they know better" The smart workers do as they are told because they been around long enough "to know better". And then you have your employees of the month. Who usually just walk around with horse blinders and only do as they are told because they don't know better.
My dad also ran business, You learn really quick the emperor doesn't like to be told he is nekid, even when he is wearing no cloths. That is why the jesters and comedians are the only ones who can speak truth to power.
Or something like that.
I am sure Colton will show his fangs if you push him around a bit more... but only then.
If that clutch would not have failed this would not have to be recovery. Only a wrx owner would understand.
I love all the recovery stuff !! hope to see more in the future .
So ol freddy actually got stuck while in FWD.🤣😜
My thoughts are Snow Skids that can be attached to the front wheels. Carry a low profile jack to lift the front end of the vehicle attach the skids under the wheels. Attach ropes to through the wheel spokes and pull it out from there. I would keep a snow shovel on the truck instead of a regular garden shovel. Put together a snow environment kit and mount it on top of Fred's cab. 'Ready to go for snow recoveries. '
You had my hopes up. I thought you'd finally decided to leave the mechanical savant at home. Oh well, I can still FF through Hillbilly's parts of the video.
Technically you were already in 4 wheel drive. But another great episode!
