      That's one of the ways you know Chad is an old soul. Patience and temperance like that only comes from many lifetimes of learning... His latest turn on the Hamster Wheel we call life is just his soul teaching the rest of us valuable lessons if we will only listen. Listen closely, Padawan. You will learn something very valuable if you do...

    Love the buss bar utilization, we build campervans and use them for battery linking and at distribution points, really the best way. Also, funny how these guys are turning you into their wiring guru, yet your fab skills are way beyond. I give ‘em the creativity, but clean precise fab you guys do it well.

    "I appreciate your work Chad...being a retired Elec. Contractor who specialized in Power Distribution & Machine Control, I can see the 90% of things going on in your head that nobody else realizes...you engineer it and can see it being installed, anticipate trouble and watch the project morph as it develops...right down to the start up. At times it's a challenging job as you have to keep a step ahead of all the 'helping hands' in the crew...anticipate their needs in material and have all that ready as the project matures. That said...I think you & I would get along just fine. We know these fabricators can build anything but if they want a 'SOUL in the MACHINE' they're going to be knocking on our door! Well done...charlie"

    It’s cool that Chads Fab is known for being the wiring experts, especially on these off road wreckers. It really says a lot because Matt and his crew , and Paul and his crew are super capable mechanics , fabricators , and troubleshooters , and they build these awesome one off rigs, but when it comes to wiring , they want it done 100 percent PROPER so they leave it up to Chad and his crew to do an awesome job. That’s pretty cool. Thanks for sharing

    I am so amazed at your skill and talents wiring up the wreckers. Note to Chad.. Bring a test light to the games. LOL. But I truly am impressed with your skills and attention to detail. But when you let the smoke out of the table I sorta wondered!! Hydraulic issues. Paul has an open vs closed valve issue. When they are both hooked up at the same time the pressure bypasses through the one not used. I know little but I caught that. In electric terms, diode kinda. Great show!

I swear if you can wire a semi truck then you could rewire the moon if it ran on batteries/LOL. I still don't know too much about the computer systems as it was after I quit doing much in the like of mechanicing or fabbing stuff up. I can really appreciate the work that your doing and think that you have a crackerjack team!

    Love watch Chad and crew take on a new challenge!! I would sure love to see an occasional detail segment on how you terminate your connections and such. Love your content!

    Good 😊 Jerb... but what do I know... always amazed at how you'all just jump in a get' r done... I would have to spend days planning and re-planning to ensure everything was in the best possible position for durability and usability... but then again, I'm a perfectionist and NOT a "Rat-Rod" type builder... but I'm really liking the STYLE and relaxed 😎 attitude about looks 👀 and a direct focus on function.
    Thanks 🙏🏻 for sharing... Love ❤️ your SHOW

      Thank you!!
      I spend a lot of time getting things planned out before any wire gets unspooled.
