      Seriously. When I take my son to visit his grandparents, it's like crossing most of the UK from the north to south. Then when Europeans crap on us, they don't realize every single state has their own culture and people, we're not one country, we're 50 small countries united together. It's a miracle the majority speak one language, while again referencing the UK, until very recently on the timeline you had different languages in different regions.

So in summation please use (Left) and (Right) when designating direction just state at begining all directions are as if you are the driver foward reverse left right no confusion unless you are my wife who even got in and out confused.

    I think my favorite thing about Matt is that he always builds/ modifies his rigs and then doesn't test them. Instead he take it out on a job to test it and doesn't know if it will break or not and rarely does it break on him. It just makes funny noises and he tells us not to worry he will fix it eventually.

    First double Pinocchio today Matt, lol. I was at Kingman beginning March late on a Sunday, but unfortunately all business were closed. Took pics of Santa Fe engine and caboose. (Engine was a pigeon coop) two of pink carts. Biker shop behind Mr. Ds didn't know what they were for. I had not been to Kingman since 1966, driving a VW from Connecticut to Anaheim after deployment in France. (DeGalle kicked U.S. and NATO out). Many memories, leaving Anaheim at 3:30 a.m. in 50 merc 4 door, 6 kids and Mom, hot desert, windows open, watering hanging from hood ornament. Yea, I'm old, (79 pushing 80 in Sept. 2 yrs ago stopped in, met Ed, Lizzie and Jefe. Last year stopped in met Rhett, Matt and Jaime were just leaving, but were gracious to stop say hi and wave. Will be by end of March or early April. Hope to meet and greet. Hello from Oregon.

    Get some Colby valves. On the trail easy fix. Replace a valve stem in 2 minutes. They are awesome.

    I've fixed a tire with duct tape before. Tractor tire. Knocked it off the bead so I could put a piece of duct tape on the inside. Worked like a charm. I've also repaired a torn sidewall by using 1/4-20 carriage bolts to bolt a piece of galvanized sheet metal on the inside and outside , and sealing it with Silicone caulk. I have also pulled a tire back onto the bead with sheet rock screws. Old racing trick. Drill holes through the bead of the rim, and put screws through. That was how they used to deal with the rim spinning inside the tire before there was such a thing as beadlock rims. None of those are permanent fixes, but when you have an $1800 tire that won't hold air, and you have to order a new one and wait for delivery, you do what you need to so you can get back to work. Also, I recommend keeping an inner tube that is about the right size for the tire in your rig, as well as some bailing wire, a cordless drill, and a bit. Tear a sidewall, and you can drill a bunch of holes around the tear, and basically sew the side wall back together with the wire. (twist the ends together on the outside, keep the holes a couple of inches from the tear, spread them out and do a couple of rows, and when you think you have enough stitches, keep going, because you can't overdo it.) Knock the valve out, put the tube in, reinflate, and go. Won't last forever, and it isn't safe for highway speeds because the tire will be grossly out of balance. It can get you off a trail, and to a tire shop. If not, you're still stuck with a torn sidewall, which you had anyway.

    • @jeremyhicks6889
      @jeremyhicks6889 Месяц назад +5

      Note that the screw trick will ruin the rim, but if you're trying to get the tire to seal on a bent rim, it's already ruined.

    Lived 13 years in AZ, and done lot of wheeling in around Kingman and think we did that exact wash a time or two. Did that area in with our 1996 XJS (2 inch lift, Detroit rear, limited slip front on 33x12.50s) and our stock 1990 Land Cruiser LJ78G Prado Light (32x8.50s and select-able rear/open front), although the LC did have a pretty high off-chamber pucker factor on that loose decomposing granite typical of central and western AZ. I hope the JTR owner was a 4x4 newbie. Where he stopped, could have easily jacked up vehicle, then driven off the jack. Maybe that is how he pretezeled his jack tool. Glad to see Colby did not rock tattoo any doors or 1/4 panels.Matt, also be wary of those mine tunnels. Someone mentioned snakes, but we did a lot of mine investigating in western AZ (wife wrote for AZ Highway magazine). We ran across many that still had explosives (dynamite or even older nitro) stashed in them (miner stocked the mine, but never came back). Be very wary of any mine that was wooden boardwalks in them. Under the boardwalk is where a lot of stuff got stashed, and if a foot goes through....BOOM. Remember, it is always funny until someone gets hurt. Then it is freaking hilarious. Semper Fi.

    I have been in that canyon and even have a chunk of copper ore from the stream bed there where you turned around at. we came up from the bottom like you did and decided at that fall we had enough. That a bone stock Gladiator made it down is testament to the driver and that piece of equipment. He was wise to stop and let the professionals finish for him. About 3 miles up the road in Kings Canyon Gold Mine, a really fun ride. Glad you enjoyed our neighborhood and neck of the woods.

    It might be a clear day, but Lighting can still come out on anywhere at any time to get you Matt "I for one Always fuel up before a job?" "And I never run out." Hmmm. Most gnarly jobs? Where's The WLOR Wrecker? Hopefully the owner heard you about larger tires and maybe some upgrades too since stock is not really a good 4x4 vehicle except for gravel roads. The Jeeping World is definitely a different world, and it is Awesome. Always go last into an unknown mine, that way you can run out if something goes wrong, nobody to trip over. Challenging recovery but fun to watch. Duct Tape a 4-Wheerers essential item.

    • @capt.stubing5604
      @capt.stubing5604 Месяц назад +3

      I can answer that. My built Gladiator would have done that trail with little difficulty. And I could have taken a lot more creature comforts with me. But I agree a stock rig has no business on that trail. 37s and a lift are required for those trails in that rig.
