World’s Largest Off-Road Wrecker

[@JLewis1979]

The comparisons to Matt's wrecker, which I love are like apples and oranges. They are both wreckers, and both will go off road, but of course this one will haul way more weight when finished, and Matt's will go way more places than this one ever will. Comparison is the thief of joy. Just enjoy them both for the awesomely fabricated vehicles they are.

Matt already talked about there being off-road wreckers at the wrecker games that were even bigger than his "the biggest off-road wrecker". He doesn't care, it's just a name, a running joke.

[@Questionable_creations]

Why would Matt care? He doesn't own the right to be the only one making a big wrecker. Neither heavy D or Matt are that pathetic

[@pseudocoder78]

I agree, Matt is wise enough to know that what's important is that it's the best off road wrecker for him, not that it's the biggest or anything else about it other than it works for him and his company.

[@jcar1417]

Here’s my prediction 1; it will breakdown on first deployment.2; it will be too big and cumbersome for any MOAB trails. Rory Irish does more with Trailmater than any of these giant wreckers and he does it every day. I’m always interested in the builds but reality is they are more show than go. But as an aside his two main fabricators are amazing.

[@Mark_Bridges]

To be fair, other custom vehicles and custom modifications on stock vehicles usually have reliability issues when first used. I agree it will probably be too big for many trails and situations.

When squaring something long use the 3 4 5 rule. If something is 3 foot long and 4 foot wide, measure from the 3' to the 4' it should be 5' it square. If you apply multiple of each leg it has to be applied to each. Like 15' 20' when square it will be 25' if square.

My guess is 24,700 lbs. it could get much heavier depending on the rotating assembly they choose, but I can’t imagine a single use for it. What is going up those trails that need to be hauled out that weigh anywhere near what that things capable of getting out?

19,250lbs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Good build so far!

Seeing this video, gave me a great idea......... An 8x8 off-road platform rollback tow truck. I work for a tow service and it would probably work for off-road recovery.

[@BillEffinMurray]

oh wow, maybe it could even start as a spud truck!

Hey, you have a 4x4 El Camino, right? Ever think of building a crewcab 4x4 El Camino? There's one on the internet, but it's just a wagon with the roof cut off, and only 2 wheel drive. You need a wagon or 4-door, but you have to cutoff the back end, including the rear window and weld on an El Camino box, including rear window.. If you look at the angle of the door on an El Camino, it is the same angle as the back door of a wagon and 4-door. Why? Why not? One of one.

For the spare space on the back you should build a little chill room or a sleeping area or something
