I've Waited FOREVER For This! The World's Largest Off-Road Wrecker!

[@coltbuildsit]

We're super excited for the Offroad Games and getting these Jalopys together!!

[@MattsOffRoadRecovery]

Thanks for the help!

[@kevoflynn9043]

Hey Matt you think you could put a supercharger on your wrecker

[@PMcDFPV]

It absolutely does look fake driving through the sand, it looks like somebody has a very nice Hot Wheels model and they're doing some scale video to make it look real. Amazing work

[@gregsierra414]

Nice to see that Paul is back for the wreckers games.

[@professornuke7562]

It sure is. I think we were all worried a great friendship had come to grief there.

[@TheCompjunkie]

Absolutely. They have been avoiding each other. Would be nice to see Merlin at the games too.

[@neddflanderz]

Nice lineup! I'm glad to see Paul is going to be there.

[@larrydavidson3402]

Wrecker is getting some love. It sure deserves it as it does a lot of great rescues and does them well.

[@TheGrateful55]

Always a pleasure to see Colt and his better half, I enjoy his explanations.

[@brianratchford5643]

Boy, that flatbed looks cool in the dunes. It reminds me of the big truck that run thru the dunes in the Dakar Rally. Great job to all of you!

[@Tec4pro]

21:33 you guys should add sound deafening material for cars inside the cab, which would help with Sound resonance

[@glenwestphal7510]

That thing glides over the sand so fast and effertless just like speed boat on a smooth lake and leaving now wake in it's path !!! TRULY AWESOME TO WATCH !! WAS WORTH THE WHOLE TIME IT TOOK TO DO THAT ROLLBACK !! Matt , your a true genius when it comes to Moab wrecker and towing vehicles , unmatched !

[@marvincarter870]

Things are happening at Matt's off road recovery with jalopy's and the big wrecker making big improvements. The Spud truck is alive and awesome! Nice to see Colt helping out!

[@sjaak2307]

You really need to put sound proofing material in the cab of the Wrecker.

[@Marty54GMC]

Yes, it will get rid of a lot of the noise. Right now it's an echo chamber.

Matt is an embodiment of "Plan coming together"

[@brontecountryrc]

i think matt's going to be making all the LS powered rigs 11% better with a supercharger

[@michaelcochran7531]

I agree with that statement 11% of the time

[@bobsullivan5714]

You can hear the supercharger moan while the Spud Truck is tearing the hill down.......Matt builds some kool stuff!

[@En-Pea-Sea]

That super charger sound just melts my heart. What a beast.

supercharger whine not moan...

[@bobsullivan5714]

@@TheWhatman21 I thought I would leave the whining up to you! Neither word is accurate. But MOAN is evocative of a slightly different mood than WHINE.

This is why I watch these sunday builds, to vicariously be a part of turning a nothing into a super something. That 6x6 is a BEAST!

[@tomd.3082]

The spud truck seriously looks like claymation going over the peaks of the dunes. It must be a blast to drive.

[@andryr2884]

Your're right Matt, LandCrusers were never been designed to do Jeep things and the other way around is also true, that's why you don't see a lot of jeeps in Africa

[@riaanlouw1874]

All you see in Africa is Series 3 LandRovers

[@andryr2884]

@@riaanlouw1874 Yeah, lancruisers have become too expensive, even the 70 series. I'm betting on the chinese brands and their cheap SUV to take over africa if Toyota doesn't drop the price of their vehicles

[@MichaelKuczynski-x5t]

@@riaanlouw1874 when’s the last time you were in Africa? Nothing but Land Cruisers

[@MichaelKuczynski-x5t]

The difference is a jeep is really not a jeep , when it’s all said and done it has different axles, diffs ,suspension , drive train and the list goes on , that’s what makes them so good . Land cruises on the other hand you just drive them to wherever you’re going , and then drive them back . I have both and love them like children. Thanks for sharing

[@scark00]

2000 years from now when southern Utah is completely buried in sand. A lone Archeologist will stumble upon the remains deep in the dessert of a Matt’s off road recovery vehicle!

[@imagseer]

and then they'll find Trailmater at Moab and put two and two together

[@scark00]

The archeologist will drive them out of the dessert!!!! Matt and Rory never lock their vehicles🤣😂🤣😂

[@blythkd9017]

Wow, check out Kaulin's new haircut, looking good! LOL There's hope for this guy yet! And yes, he is turning into one heck of a TIG welder. Good looking work. Wasn't aware that all this work on the wrecker was coming up but looks like a good deal. Kinda curious why buy finished headers and cut them up vs buying header kits and build them up like you need? Thanks for the video!

[@99Michael]

Spud truck sounds like a screaming banshee on the dunes.

[@Ezra0]

3:30 it moves so smoothly through the sand. Almost if like someone was playing with their hot wheels in the sandbox.

[@christopherthompson4359]

Can't wait til the Spud Truck gets it's first recovery. It sounds soo awesome with that supercharger whine.

[@mikew2256]

I feel sure that Spud is getting painted yellow, but it looks great in blue!

[@Cunundrum1]

Keep it blue and have a pinstriper do hand lettering on the doors in yellow/black would be cool

[@DavidLorenTosh]

Paint it yellow and call it “ole blue” (Mr. Irish)

[@ChrisLaprise-p8n]

It's awesome to see Matt's excitement radiating through his whole body. He's fired up! Can't blame him because how long it took with all the shenanigans during the whole time. I was almost as excited as he was, but nobody that is alive today could beat his. Another of his dreams that came true. Please post other if his accomplishments in your own comments please! I would love to see a plack on one of the walls made custom tiers to hold all of his hot wheels inspired minnie trucks (and don't forget the Golden Nugget). A tag that reads... "Congratulations to Matt (sorry, I don't know how to spell his last name) for achieving the highest honor in the recovery world. He is fired up! MOOR crew is not just funny, but doers and makers." 🎉🎉🎉

[@drduandada4218]

Sunday mornings are always great at my house because MORR drops videos consistently every week. ❤ Thanks guys

[@TheKnifed]

One of the things with part stores is, the retail stores tend to have a range of years where they'll stock the most stuff at a given store. For example, Hondas and Toyotas that are 5 to 10 years old would have the most stock in a store whereas a second gen Honda Civic from 1983 would have to have most of the stuff ordered. They'll typically have stuff that's not as common in the local hub so you're inclined to order from them. My local hub from when I worked at AutoZone didn't like me because I ordered singular bags of potato chips.

[@matthew9867]

This is what I was basically coming to say. From my understanding parts stores only have space to stock the more common vehicles spare parts. If they stock too many parts for older less common vehicles those parts would take too much shelf space to be able to stock the parts needed more often. Then they have a network of their own stores and warehouses to hopefully be able to provide less often used parts to stores as needed.

[@anotherdave5107]

Now you just need to install the exterior sound system and the tape loop playing "... he'a a smoooth operator..." to strike fear in heart of the competition.

[@rodney1818]

5:37 Thank you for the i was one of the people who asked about the articulation of the rear axles.And was told it was for stability Which made sense to me Thanks more information is always better

[@martinreyes273]

Good morning! This was definitely worth the wait. Super happy for Matt + the ORR crew. Great job!!

[@Marty54GMC]

Next stop with the spud truck, DAKAR. Amazing how well it works in the sand.

[@DOPES4MAGA]

Matt's World-Wide Off-Road Adventures. If you are stuck in Antartica or Alaska, Matt will get you out.

[@downwiththesneaker9933]

Matt you should design some air scoops that draw air into the driveshaft tunnel to air out all that sand around the trans and driveshafts

[@andygrant5275]

It’s great Matt how your sons are learning and doing welding and mechanical things, they certainly have plenty of enthusiasm.

[@davehudson3439]

I think Matt actually got a little excited there!😁

[@MarkoMygun]

Matt I'm laughing so hard in the intro when you were saying who was going to be at the games ,when you said Murphys Diesel you called HellBoy HECKBOY. LMAO MURPHYS GONNA LOVE THAT. 😂😅😂😅

[@imagseer]

Yep... a Heck-Yeah for HellBoy going for the win.

[@abedanielspictures]

Looking good there, Kaulin! A lot less like a baseball mascot than before. Rudy?

Matt's sons can certainly weld! Impressed that Kaulin got the idea of how to turn Matt's idea for those pipes into action so quick.

The flatbed climbs the sand dunes with ease !!! Have you thought about going to Glamis sand dunes and trying to climb the China Wall sand dune ???

[@richardkatzman1215]

Matt, don’t mess with perfection! Put the hood back on and fix the passenger door. Congratulations finally on the road or should I say on the sand!

Fantastic build on Spud Truck! That is very impressive Matt and crew! Awesome awesome ! Job well done by LT too!

[@xAdamski]

That departure angle on the 6x6 is going to kill you. Good luck on the tracks

[@grantdavis5992]

The reason there aren't many parts available for old Land Cruisers is that they were so reliable that they rarely needed parts, so there wasn't enough demand to produce them...unlike Jeeps, which break regularly and there are lots of them. Toyota pickups and 4-Runners are a whole different story. So many on the road that, even though they are more reliable, some will break so an aftermarket supply is available. Case in point, my 04 Tacoma with 305k miles, now needs both outer door handles, and the pair are available for about $15 from multiple vendors. My 87 XJ was pretty reliable after I replaced its Crank Position Sensor, but it finally blew a head gasket on the 4.0 at 320k miles.

[@davidmarx1451]

Also, Toyota only sold 2-4 thousand Land Cruisers a year at their peak in the US so stocking parts for them is not a good business model.

[@cahammer]

It’s always great to see Ed in the shop

[@larryswearingen8129]

Excellent! I love it. Can not wait to see it start doing recoveries

I used to watch junkyard wars and scrapheap challenge so now I watch you guys and fab rats. I only wish I could buy an old vehicle but I live in the rust belt. Even if I buy something from a different state it wouldn't take long before it would rot away.

8:44 Angle of repose Range rovers go to the stealership for service, b/c they have an entire wall of specialty service tools required to work on them. Ergo, there is no substantial aftermarket parts support.

As a guy with 3 land cruisers, i can confirm parts are hard to get at the parts store. There are specialty stores of course but it means waiting for shipping. Worth it.
