Love this build. Just a few thoughts to help you maybe. When building your link points, use a scrap piece of tube that is the same width of the joints you are using, to go between the brackets that need to be welded. Then put a .050 shim on either side, and bolt them in. Welding the brackets will shrink the metal. When it's time to install the joints, they will just slide right in, no hammer needed. Plus, the heat doesn't beat on your joints, breaking down the rubber. Also, to help locate the axles, get your square points figured out, then just tack on a nut to the frame, and drop a plumb bob down, and crank on the link until it touches the axle. No need to remeasure all the time. For a plumb bob, all you need is string and a heavy nut to hang down, doesn't have to be a real plumb bob. For the record, I really wish I could be there to help build this thing. I build dirt race cars for fun, when I can. Never built a rescue rig, and would love the challenge. Been a fabricator for awhile, and I've learned from some great folks along the way. Keep it up, yall are doing great

Great ideas. Personally I use lasers instead of plumb bobs, and I superimpose all the Lines of the frame and mounting points down to the ground, Draw it out completey and then its there until the project is done. No need for ten plumb bob lines hanging down everywhere, (2 for axle, 8 for 4 link mounts two each) and the a few high quality lasers will let you check parallel, square and plum lines to infinity across the entirety of the frame in any location, nut just the intersections.

I like how Matt is talking about his various oil coolers on the Jeep and Morrvair. You really can tell a lot about a system by looking at the oil. If it looks clean and clear, it's usually not getting too hot or being overworked. Instead of only checking the levels, or just changing it regularly, monitoring the condition can alert you to problems that are developing.

Speaking of people not liking pickles, I'm working on a couple pickle recipes specifically for people who don't like pickles. My brine is a mild salt water and spices rather than vinegar, so the pickle itself is more like a salted cucumber and not too overpowering. Then i take those pickles and prep them 3 ways; spears, 1/8" thick rounds and 3/8 thick rounds. We're making fried pickles. Wet batter is 1 part flour, 2 parts water and hot sauce added to taste. Dry is 1 cup flour, 1 tsp each salt/pepper/garlic/chili/cayenne/paprika. Pat dry the pickles, batter them dry->wet->dry, fry until golden brown and delicious. Serve with a dipping sauce of choice. My "boom sauce" is 2 parts mayo 1 part franks red hot.

I have two tips that might help a couple of irritating issues. One for helping shop cooling without spending an arm and a leg on hardware or power to run hardware. That will be the wall of text nobody will read. The other is to help Lizzy with her welding helmet vision/tight clearance annoyances. . Im sure she already uses a large sized auto darkening hood. Which is ggreat. BUT if you are careful most of them have enough room on the slanted forehead area to cut out a rectangle and fit in one of the old small style filter and glass lens and plastic cover lens. That can let you see to weld many (but not all) overhead things without cocking your neck sideways. The auto darkening lens still allows you to see before you strike an arc, so you arent tempted to strike an arc with hood raised. The main drawback is it adds weight to the helmet, so if you have a lightweight favorite hood and a backup hood its best on the backup. Also dont skimp on gaskets for old style lens or it can leak in light and hurt eyes. Ill add the shop coolng tip in another LOOOONG comment after a bit.

I know this is a bit late but did you ever install drain valves on your frame rails that you're using as compressor tanks? As we all know compressed air creates water and water and bare steal leads to a bad day later on. drain valves will allow to purge any buildup of water. Maybe you could install an automatic purge system that purges every so many minutes or hours to keep water at bay. Love how the build is coming sofare. keep up the good work. 👍👍

Matt, a little trick that I use to square axles and especially 4 link suspension easily (since adjusting 1 link on a 4 link moves everything and things can get off pretty easily) is to hang plumb bobs from frame points to where you want the center of axle tubes to land. Once you know where axle center is on your frame then you can adjust axle to align with the plumbs and square everything up, after that pinion angle can easily be set with upper link adjustment. On another note I would highly suggest some 2.5" aluminum lower links because no matter how strong the DOM tubing is with the weight of your rig they WILL get bent! Keep up the awesome work, you and your team seem like great people and I definitely enjoy the channel!

Hey Lizzie, I feel your pain. I do a lot of exhaust work. I'm 6'1 and most of what I do requires me to stuff my head up into an undercarriage as close as I can to see what I'm doing. Seeing the tops of the pipes is impossible without a mirror most of the time. Eventually though, you get the hang of blind welds. You're doing great, though, don't be so quick to criticize how your welds look. It's not as much about how pretty they are, but rather how good the penetration and heat spread is. Strong welds are way better than pretty welds (but I'm sure Matt has already told you that). Skeeter, big props for remembering the show "Viper". I was beginning to think I was the only one who remembered (or even watched) that show. I don't remember it ever turning into a boat, but I may have missed that. I love this build, I've watched every episode so far, and I can't wait to see it complete!

Just stumbled across this channel last week, literally the day before I got stuck for the first time in my life. I drive full sized school busses w/trailers at a Raft company at Glacier NP, and got stuck at a river access that ends on a gravel bar. Had been driving on the gravel bar all summer without getting stuck(though there were a few close calls) but this day I got stuck twice with two different busses. The second time I took my time walking the rocks and finding a nice packed down area too... but it just wasn't my day. Anywho, it was super fortuitous that I had stumbled on this channel the day before as I knew absolutely nothing about recovering stuck vehicles. Saved me from looking completely clueless as we worked to get it out. "We got 'em out." Off topic, but I think I'm developing a bit of a crush on Lizzie. She's always on it, jumping in and doing what needs doing as soon as the need arises. Plus the combination of looks and good attitude don't hurt either.

Pick up a pancake hood for overhead stuff, gives you more clearance and leaves the lense itself closer to your eyes so you can keep your neck straighter and still have good angles of visibility. You can trim the top of the faceplate down and it will save your spine, thats what i used when I would do tight quarters overhead stuff. Its also much lighter so less neck strain, nothing like going home after a long day with a mad crick in your neck 👍

It's not the winters that kills vehicles, it's that salt they put on the roads. I personally wish they would ban it. Sand and tiny gravel works better anyway.

Matt two steel plates sandwiched with grease or sand between then put under the tires. This allows you to do these adjustment and alignment stuff much easier. Slip plates. Lets tires slide around and not fight you. As always. Great video.

@@jasonmalone155oh, I don't know, except maybe a pretty succesfull youtube channel and a workshop that brings in a fortune, and his derby car was usually the last running on the track. The cooling on the FJ was sorted recently and i dont think he has ever not completed a recovery , not to mention all the other rigs. Maybe I missed something, I'm a hardcore MORR fan but sorry to Matt and Paul,I think Rory will take the Gold.

I used to sweat bullets welding, and it probably was not nearly as hot (Maine summer) as y'all have there! Id be chugging gallons of water too. Get some ice packs to keep in a freezer so you can put it on the back of your neck and in crook in arm at elbow to help bring temps down too. The ice cones sound Yummy! Great job so far team! Cant wait to see it done 😀
