This comment is unrelated to the video but relates to Matt. When we were traveling in Utah recently, we stopped at Maverik in Hurricane to get one of Matt’s favorite “Victory” pies (or JJ’s Bakery pies). Then, every time we filled up at a Maverik in Utah I got another one…and another. Today for Father’s Day my sweet wife gave me a dozen assorted Victory pies! Every flavor. Since we live over 1,600 miles from Hurricane, she ordered them. I’ll be sharing them with the family today and thinking of Matt.

@@southerndualsport3827 if it helps, sometimes being right there is pretty hard too. My dad was in ICU after a cardiac surgery. Two weeks to the day after he and I worked on a home improvement project all day I watched him pass. Nothing I could do but be there. Intubated for a respirator he couldn’t even speak. He was the kind of guy who always had some wisdom to share. I wanted desperately to “save” him but I was helpless. He was 68. I turned 69 this year. Just remember your times together with love. Sometimes even if we are within reach they are still lost.

When I first started watching this channel (back when Hector was a pup), I found myself talking to the screen, saying things like, “WHAT!?”, “WHY-Y-Y-Y (sob) WHY-Y-Y”, and “no, don’t do that…NO!!! DON’T DO THAT!!!”. Now, I just sit here with a bemused smile on my face, secure in the knowledge that the result will be 11% better than I thought, and very, very, VERY glad that I never had to train Matt as an aircraft mechanic!

Oh yes, the shop is TINY for the work that comes out of it!! I was there when the wrecker was in progress and there was barely room to walk around it!! It’s also amazing the quality of work and the ambitious projects that come out of the tiny shop, with bare bones fabrication equipment and only the people we see on the video; well minus Rudy who has his own shop now (wicked cool!!) and my friend Robert, rest in peace brother. Very cool folks!!! No off-screen fabrication crew, just a couple excellent office ladies and of course the incomparable Ed. The MORR team ROCKS!! Miss Lizzy, but so cool that she’s growing her family and doing their own thing too. It would be awesome if she could swing by and give an update, and Rudy too.

I worked for a small trucking company in Eugene, Oregon after high school, washing their trucks and gofering. In 1973 they decided to convert their truck no. 1, an old White cabover without a sleeper (it had 1 about a million miles) from a flatbed into a mid-length wheelbase semi. They used an old school SAW to chop the frame. The saw blade, if memory serves, was about 4 feet long and massive sized, for a saw blade. It did a full back-and-forth motion in about 5 seconds. The mechanic had to stay right there and oil the blade frequently. It took perhaps a week to cut thru both frame rails.

Same with Lizzie. I understand it's selfish but I wish they were all still around!

In South Africa we get 93 (inland 6000 foot above sea level) and 95 for coastal areas. We also used to get 98 octane for coastal areas, but since them removing the lead out of our fuel, that is no longer available. Back in the 60s and 70s, we got a sugar cane based fuel, 100 octane (Union Fuel), but it was expensive and you had to advance your ignition if you wanted to get the most out of the extra power. Most cities outside Durban only had about 3 or 4 Union Fuel fuel pumps.

I think having the offset rear axle as the front rear, then the normal one as the rear rear would be a better arrangement than your diagram. The carrier bearing for the driveshaft would be right down the centerline and it would have to withstand a whole lot less articulation than if the offset axle is in the rear.

Little bit of context for fellow European watchers: EU and USA measure octane rating differently. There are two standards: RON and MON with similar test procedure, but different condition , MON having more demanding, resulting in lower ratings. EU uses RON and USA uses AKI which is basically average between RON and MON. 91 AKI ≈ 95 RON and 87 AKI ≈ 91 RON (which is in EU abandoned because of low demand since most EU engines have higher compression ratio and require 95 RON).

Always attempt to comment. Peaked curiosity on the White cabover. We all or some of us anyway know that if you had a Passthrough Dif you would lose power to wheel the moment the front dif went out. Having friends with destroyed lunges gives me a unique perspective on painting in enclosed and non-PPE jobs. Most, but not all my friends have spent at least one year in a body shop. The ones that were religious about PPE don't have lung issues. One only worked 6 months in a shop but is now dealing with all types of respiratory conditions. He looks back and can only wish he had been more cautious. All and all, still enjoy coming to this channel.

I've never had the "Pleasure" of sitting on a cactus... The only place I could have done that was also the place where I learned why you shouldn't do it...I live in Southern Ontario, Cacti are not Native to the area (too cold and wet)... A friend of my Father had some Brain Cactus Plants and the first time I ever saw them, was also the time the Friend's new kitten decided to go exploring the Cacti...watching the kitten leap up onto the cactus and then INSTANTLY leap halfway across the room screaming like it was being burned alive taught me to treat the pokey-plants with caution... Yes, the kitten was fine, none of the cactus spines got stuck in it's paws and other than limping and meowing piteously for a few hours every time it's pads touched something, it took no damage...it also never went within 6 feet of the Cacti for the rest of it's life either... 😄😁😆😅😂🤣

You should do a fan collaboration project. When you said the crew was 7 years late it rang a bell. You probably could muster an awesome crew from your fanbase in Utah alone, a lot of us do our own work on projects and would jump at the chance, organize it and make it happen. If anyone can do it Matt can. Be great content too.

12:28 if you can't find a door, find a piece of metal that fits the dent, tack it in place, then pull it down with authority. In theory, if you match the vector, you'll undent it close enough for a panel beater action. That damage is pretty much fixable. Clean bend, nothing super mangled.

I like the double-driveshaft/offset differential idea because it's possible to break a driveshaft on one of the axles through accident or misuse, and you're still able to drive the other axle to get the vehicle out in theory. With the pass-through axle, there's just slightly less redundancy.

About holes in frame: you should avoid making them in stretch stressed parts of frame. That is bottom between axles and top on overhang part of frame.

Why not make Unimog style steps on there? Just having a motorcycle style chain on both sides, so they can move forward and back, if they hit the ground, but you can step on them end they won't fold back (meaning sideways in vehicles terms) :)

To get rid of a long end of a strap without tying knots everywhere is to roll it up really short, reach through the middle, pull whatever is left between the roll and the ratchet through, and with that loop you just created, you put entirely around the roll of strap. I've driven a flatbed for some time and never had a problem

Something I've always enjoyed about your business and your channel is that you work with the kids and young adults from your area in so many different ways. Whether you've hired them directly as part of your crew, or if you're giving back to the community in some way that helps the kids. Reminds me of my own childhood, working at a restaurant owned by a guy with a couple kids in school. Most of his staff were high school kids or recent graduates. It was a helpful transition from school to the real working world. That's what you're doing for these kids, and i love it!

Best cure for cactus thorns: need to be cool and dry, but don’t try to wash. Get in the AC, naked, and gently apply gorilla tape, and pull it off. Don’t reuse tape. After a few applications, apply tape and rub it on before you pull it off. After you get the easy thorns you can shower and use drawing salve. After you use salve you have to have to get clean before you use more tape.

Happy Father's Day I think the COE would make an excellent cab especially if you add to the back of the COE cab to fill it into the headache rack so then it would seat more people and look extremely unique.

A friend of mine(old hotroder/fabricator) swapped one of those White cabs onto a Nissan rollback frame. Turned out awesome and looked sweet. BUT it was a a LOT of work. And by the looks of it, you don't have all the original brackets, crossmembers etc. The pivot/tilt/torsion hinge was a lot of work on its own.
