Back when I was a kid and worked for a tow company You used to carry a 4 ft long 4x6 that you could set across the frame rails when picking up a plastic bumperd vehicle with a wrecker It might work might not but it did back in the day Love the videos

[@GeraldPost]

That log might have done the trick

[@sungear]

Matt's not real big on being prepared with stuff.

[@mikestanavech7858]

I came here for to add this too. 4x4 and a strap sling would cause almost no damage.

Matt, I just wanted for you to know that your videos helped me save a young family’s life today. We were coming back from the San Juans wheeling with my family heading towards Denver. There was this mini van with a blown up engine blocking a lane on the highway. The family was young with a baby. I slid under there no recovery points. With no thinking I knew I needed to make a bridle and go to the A arms.

[@dannyt8352]

I think you need to keep some moving blankets in the wrecker. Take a small blanket fold it once or twice and put it between the bumper and the straps. That should help to save the bumper. Also when you're working under a vehicle you can throw it on the ground so you don't have rocks poking you an the back. And if you get stranded somewhere in the winter time you can keep warm!

[@cypressgold]

They make door jam protectors that would work pretty good too.

[@Rob1970s]

I remember matt had to lay under a vehicle and stood up with those narsty little spikey plant things pokeing in to his arm. They seriously need something to place down on the ground to make it comfortable and safe at times like this. Many times I have been watching and thought this...

[@Rob1970s]

@@Travis12861 actually I do think there is a very serious need for a simple mat of some description for off road use. I've watched almost every recovery M.O.R.R have made available to me.

[@pjford1118]

When I drove tow trucks ( mid 1980s) the sling trucks had an adjustable A frame that the sling attached to. For this if the frame was heavy enough you could lift at a mid point. Similar to the cheap early wheel lifts that were a spreader bar and wheel bars.

[@rpalmer274]

I agree

[@johnmccann1234]

Just rip that plastic off! Now the customer has a legit excuse to justify (to their significant other) buying a real bumper 🤣 Thanks for another great video. Tom, get Gaia or OnX and secretly save routes... you guys could sell them in the store later maybe? Greatest recovery hits!

Seeing your boy ride in the back, makes me think you could easily make some jump seats, maybe easily removable with 2" receiver type setup, on the back of the wrecker for hauling a couple more people in good weather. Next time your UPS guy stops by ask to see his folding jump seat they use for driver helpers during peak season for inspiration

[@bertrutledge4546]

There were a couple of sketchy moments but you guys weren't giving up. Good recovery.

[@weiss27md]

You should build a rollbar for the wrecker for safety purposes. And maybe a seat in the back facing backwards with a rollbar too.

[@lyfandeth]

The trouble with rollbars, is that the reduce head clearance. So many racing rules require the use of a helmet to protect the head. That's why a roll bar may need to be external to the roof, unless internal clearance was designed before the build. Matt does some great work, but he'd give an OSHA inspector a heart attack.
