RAT ROD Tow Truck Rescues JEEP!!
It was time to test out the Tacoma upgrades, so Fab Rats went out on a leisurely trip, along with Matt's Off Road Recovery and friends.......at least that was the plan! Our plan took a turn when one of group's jeeps broke and our leisurely trip turned into a recovery! Did we get back before dark? Check it out!
Make sure to follow along with us as we build and fabricate cool stuff!!

That's the best tow truck I've ever seen hands down.

@TrevorDennis100 3 жыл бұрын

I can't imagine any other tow truck being so happy off-road. That had to be the same soft sand that Matt needed to help the white Jeep get through, but Paul's tow truck air'd down a bit, and not only got up those soft slopes, it did it while towing another Jeep. It seems to me that if they ever film a Mad Max sequel in America, they'd do well to hire Paul to build the vehicles.

That old sling truck is sweet! As for the Hi-lift jack, I have a strap that stays with my Hi-lift jack that I use it to strap the jack to the bumper so if it tries to kick out the strap stops it. It's just a pull strap that tightens when you pull it, and then you lift up on the clasp and it releases it. It tightens and loosens like the shoulder straps on the 4 or 5 point racing harnesses. It just makes me feel better about using it.

Between rat rod tow truck and the work on the Corvair you're doing for Matt, it makes me want to drop off my 85' F250 (4WD w/ the 460 motor) with you for a few months. It needs to be either a plow truck or a crawler. Or both. I'm in Idaho, but it'd be worth it. Fab Rats would show it the love it needs.

As others have said, what a special group of people Having fun, giving each other crap, nobody is upset or getting offended. I love it. Was that axle kinda undersized for what you were doing? When the jeep was climbing the rocks earlier it just looked much less substantial than the Tacoma or the Banana.

@RenaxTM91 3 жыл бұрын

Its a much lighter car than the Tacoma and Banana, so it doesn't need the same size axle.. Its a bit of a tradeoff, a lighter car doesn't need the strongest parts, if you want more durability you can build with stronger parts but then its not as light anymore..
