I've been seeing the forward movement of towing vehicles behind the wrecker. But been thinking a single solid bar between the axle an your hitch point on the wrecker would be super helpful. A lorry lift idea like on a heavy wrecker only I think for your Idea of climbing about up an down rocks a 3/4 S layed in below the vehicle till the wrecker would work better in your case. But a single bent pipe or made up box would work so it can swivel still an extra would be a old shock added in line if there was room. But something long enough that if it swings up the towed vehicle is pushed back from hitting the end of the boom. For over an above that nothing else could happen the towed vehicle with two lift lines and the cross strapping your already using Tom toms long walks will only be optional then.

I have not confirmed this rumor and it's probably hogwash, but I did hear about it. If anyone knows, and I trust their opinion, that'd be you, Matt: how capable are the new Broncos?

they should add a larger distance legend/scale to help people visualize how large Utah and the American West is. They're driving 300+ miles one way in some of these videos. Hurricane to SLC is almost exactly 300 miles one way and they went on detours, so it's a pretty huge trip. There's a small scale in the lower right corner but it's kind of hard to see and apply it.

you guys should have a black book of "customers". share it with all the other recovery companies in the area that you can so you can know if a customer does stuff like this one did or if a customer is really hard to get $$$ out of after a recovery is done. so next time a person like this gets stuck and phones for a tow, hes told that no one will come get them(at least without being paid before you even leave the shop).

So I found a 74 cutlass for $700 and I was ok but not happy. I've had a 89 delta 88 and a 94 calias that calias was a tank. I mean it was fantastic for off roading went through snow over a foot deep in farmers Fields,i used to go out from the the city to run my dogs ,and I never once got stuck. Anyway Anyway I'm guessing you picked that up for the 500 challenge or whatever that's called...👍

You should have your “other” guys do more recovery vids (rollback, sling, etc). I like seeing you get teens involved and driving the rigs, whether your own young ones or others. Finally! A customer who communicates. “Don’t touch my things”, yet you just gave him carte blanche to all but tear the wrecker apart. Tom looks better in Digdug. DERBY TIME!!! I love the old wagons. Improvise. Adapt. Overcome! 18 hrs? I thought that was a standard day at MORR.

The scenery on your trips interests me greatly, also thanks for giving maps of where you are at, please name all the towns you stop at or pass through. The reason I ask that favour is that I had the privilege of being driven from Central North Washington to New Mexico at the latter end of 2018 & we visited some people in St George, stayed there for a week before spending 2 weeks at Santa Fe. We came over to see the Fall colors, and notice I mention in my diary, going thru Hurricane !! We loved the scenery & we explored all around your area & many other places, that's one of the main reasons I watch every video you post, of course the builds you do on those vehicles are extra awesome as I have dabbled a bit along that line in my past life & can appreciate the satisfaction you must experience. Please have a Burrito for me at least once a week, I've tried some here but they don't compare with the ones I had there & at Sana Fe. we have been over to your beautiful land quite a few times since 1979 & am lucky to have a sister who lives near Wenatchee WA, that's why we've been able to get off the general tourist track & see the real USA.

After several recoveries with the big wrecker the only design question is that you often have more people than seats in/on it. I would suggest adding some folding jump seats at least to the center of the cab and on top of the boxes in the back. You might also put dust goggles at least in the boxes as you have had a lot of gritty pulls out of the sand, sometimes for miles. Safety first as they say.

i think the lift for your trailer got a high and a low like on semis. try pulling or pushing to see if the axle with the crank moves in/out.

I would name that thing "Jitterbug." When I was a kid in the early 1980s my father had a 1940s or 1950s 1½-ton White Motor Company truck with a body style that was similar to that big yellow wrecker. It had two transmissions connected to each other so that you could put both transmissions in reverse to get a very low forward gear. A truck modified like that was called a "jitterbug" around here (Maine). They often had a homemade boom winch and were typically used in the woods for harvesting firewood, which is what Dad used his for. The ones with a boom winch were kind of a poor man's cable skidder. Even though that big yellow wrecker will never be used as an actual jitterbug, it would be the best jitterbug ever. It could even outperform an actual cable skidder in some areas I suspect, due to its extreme suspension articulation and high-revving big block gas V8 (high-revving compared to a skidder's diesel engine, anyway).

You guys were almost halfway to Rangely CO! If you ever make it up into the Dinosaur national Monument area, there's a teeny town called Rangely which is great to stop at for Gas. Oh, and legend has it, a bunch of Rock crawlers broke down out there, so instead of getting a tow home, they just founded a town around the area. And now they have a city maintained Off Road park with winch points. Completely free of charge iirc. You guys should check it out!

Aawh man. Shoulda picked up the wagon before dropping the wrecker off. Could have used the wrecker boom to lift the front of the car up from a 90 degree, back the trailer under it, set the front on the trailer, then lifted the back and pushed it on with the wrecker! Also side note Matt, a boom extension even as simple as an engine cherry picker with pins would come in handy on the wrecker! Just an idea! BUT without the wrecker, why not jack the front of the car up and back the trailer under it instead 😂

Hello Matt, I’ve a suggestion to make - similar to one I’ve made to Paul. I just love that yellow bug-eyed “buggy” of yours but I think it does need mud guards but not body-mounted ones. Instead, mount them on the suspension so that they can move up and down with the wheels.
