If you told me Chad's Fab was building a space ship I wouldn't doubt it at all! Great channel!
I would believe it. 😃😃
I'd go out and buy a telescope.
YOU DO KNOW !!!
HEAYNES HAS RELEASED A
MILLINIUM FALCON BUILD HAND
BOOK ... RIIIIGHT!! NO S H I T
Only if Chad built it it would never have a main bus B undervolt like Apollo 13 lol
Chad is Han Solo of the truck world!
Condolences & prayers for Tyson's family. Looked as tho ants were over running a dropped ice cream there for a while, lol. Hard to believe that many, in such close quarters, were such a grin & chuckles... Nice work! Thanx !
Chad, watching your boy do bodywork was amazing at such a young age. Well done teaching wiring and bodywork among many others. Those seem to be the two most difficult when coming to automotive specialties.
Also whoever does your editing with added information typed in at the top of the picture while watching the video at the same time, that's an added bonus. 👌 I've been enjoying your work both on your channel and whenever you pop into Fab Rats or Matt's offroad. You sir are important, and impressive wherever you go. Just the other day I had to sit down and rewatch the couple episodes where you received the truck from Paul. You deserve it and much more in the future. 😊All smiles from Anderson Indiana.

I'm surprised all those neighbors in that subdivision behind yall haven't tried to shut yall down
there were 2 easier ways to unload that roll back. #1 use the dollies on the back of the wrecker. this by far would have been the easiest. #2 shake the wrecker off the roll back. Both would have been less work than what you did. Was a good test for the crawler wrecker though.
We could have easily shook the wrecker off of the roll back. We wanted to use it as a test for the rat rod wrecker to see how it handled that much weight. We did everything wrong just to see how it would react and handle abuse.
@@chadsfab I wondered.
Tell that kid to use a kneeler, he'll thank you later!! If he's like the rest of us though he won't appreciate the advice until it's too late...
Mama Fab gave him a knee pad, and no choice but to get on it, right after she filmed him on his knees.
When you are young you got to do what you gotta do:). We learn only after but at least we had fun :)
I wish I had the calm /patient demeanor Chad has ! So easy to teach or learn from someone like that
One of the best channels to 420 to... 😜 Good vibes and positive energy are abundant here. That's why we are all subscribed (and addicted!) ...
RUclips radicalized me
Sadly, many of us didn't have great role models and we mimic what we were modeled to our detriment.
The good news and bad news is that it's a choice and it's teachable - IF you want to be a student. Most people don't.
DBT is one place to start along with meditation and prayer and counseling and finding a mentor.
It's practice and more practice. It's role playing to get your mind and your body familiar with what a controlled and calm response looks and feels like.
It's a mind shift from mindless reacting to mindful responding. It's practicing and role playing and filling your quiver full of healthy prepared and practiced responses to triggers.
It's a redefinition and interpretation of what a situation or confrontation "means" instead of what it is. It's deciding to get out of a defensive mindset which starts with being at peace with yourself and your Creator. So many people walk around with really, really horrible views of themselves. The voice in their head is screaming condemnation at them 24/7. So much so that when a situation that comes up questions their worth or credibility or value or validity, their immediate reaction is one of defensive attack instead of a calm confidence in who you are and the strength and the control that you have in any situation.
Anger is fear. Start seeing it that way and start looking at what is so fearful. You'll be shocked when you're honest about it that it usually comes down to pride and/or the assumed loss of face when it's not about that at all.
Those that are at peace with themselves and their Creator are the least likely to react in anger and the most likely to remain calm -understanding that the situation isn't a statement about them or their value. EVEN IF the other party wants to make it a personal attack of your value doesn't mean it's true. If you get pissed off you're agreeing with them. Those that are in control simply sidestep that flaming arrow and it flies right past. It may not be fun or even comfortable at the time, but it sure is peaceful to know that you don't have to accept every flaming arrow that is shot your way.
His son is exactly the same also
well said!
We shouldn't surrender ourselves to other's attacks, we have way more power and control than we would ever think.
As a former electrical engineer who started out life in a panel shop, I fully understand the immense amount of planning that goes into making these wiring harnesses.
Chad, you nailed it perfectly every time. I really enjoy watching y’all. Great work!!!
Wow, thank you!!
I work in low voltage security. I'm often required to completely plan out the needs of a project down to the last contact, as well as providing for future-proofing as well as troubleshooting & repair that may be required in the future. It's quite an endeavor to have to plan out wire gauges, amperage requirements, load limits, battery backup requirements, future additions and have all that fit into the budget as well as making it, functional, user friendly, and understandable.
If that's not enough, the client is counting on you to to your best work for them, and have the work-hardened clairvoyance to anticipate problems as well as to suggest ideas and alternatives to meet their objectives.
This level of planning and dedication is not lost on me and I find it quite interesting as I can relate.
Of course, it all makes a hell of a difference when you give a damn about what you produce.
@@chadsfab What do you use for wrapping your harnesses? I use hockey tape... it's looks factory and it's fireproof. It won't catch fire like electrical tape. Great work Chad family & Co. 👏
The wiring is amazing. Neatly laid out and installed. And there documentation identifying wires and location. Perfection
With that amount of work you certainly don't half-step on the installation!
👌
Hey Tyson, Deep Condolences to you and your family. I'm sorry to hear about your loss.
Yee.....
Haw.....
FAB RAD RATT ROD WRECKER
Whatta country
If we could all learn to live as Chad lives, there would be no wars, hungry people, homeless vets, abused children, abused animals, pollution or global warming. Chad, all joking aside, you are a starseed, sir. You shine like a beacon to those who need to learn how to reduce stress. You have taught me some important lessons in my observation of your personal conduct. I of the things that I have learned is that if you have to raise your voice to make your point, then your point is probably too weak to stand on its own. Another is: "Those who demand respect the most are those who deserve it the least." ✊
I mean the whole video is great but the best part was knowing all the new owners moving into the new development behind you get to look at all that yard art. My kinda guy.
Ohhh and it looks gooood too! 😂😁
You have more patience than I'll ever have working on electrics. That being said, I would never get tired of the view from your place, just out standing scenery.
My thoughts and prayers go out to Tyson and his family. No matter what it always hurts 💔 so much to lose a loved one . 🙏🏼🙏🏼
The view of the mountains from your front yard are stunning.
The snow makes them look incredible.
Where was Paul’s safety glasses when he was cutting off that right fender? Safety glasses are cheap. You cannot replace a blinded eye.
Chad and his family and friends are so cool and wisdom : "remember to surround yourself with confident people that will lighten your load.." well said but tough to apply
I think he said "competent people".🤣
Even a Mechanics creeper chair like I use for doing brakes would be better than being on Kaden's knees, And Matt can hear that Horn from St george
I tried to tell him but he was happy doing it his way.
Your team is the best. You do the job correctly. I bet all the people that you have done work for are so thankful to have you! Great video
That crosses my mind every time they do a project for someone!
6:57 - It should actually be "Close only counts in horseshoes, hand grenades...and slow dancing"
“And slow dancing”...hadn't heard that one😂
Chad tell Paul he needs to put a shim in his pto. It would make it way quieter he is running to deep in the gears. That is why it whines so much when the pto is engaged.
I still think Paul would have been miles ahead if he'd built al the gauges into a removable gauge panel that would pop all the instruments out of the dash with just a few screws. That would allow changing, or repairing the gauges on the table and given a lot more access uner the dash for other trouble shooting. I converted my entire RV Dash to do that. I have 3 different pop out panels, mounted with 1/4 turn Camlock fasteners for easy & fast trouble shooting or modifying.
Looks like Paul might need to make/install a wrecker tow bar to the bed. That way it'll stop stuff from smashing together. 😉😅😅😅😅🤣
Great work on the wiring being done at Chad's fab. 💯💯💯
That's the plan! He will probably use a standard sling for wrecker games. He is planning something more offroad friendly for the near future.
@@chadsfab
👍👍👌🏻👌🏻💯
The camaraderie within the Utah RUclips family is awesome.
We have switched, from watching cat videos to sooth our anxiety, to watching Chad's Fab videos. You guys are like video Soma (the kind from the book 'Brave New World'). The steps are, heat up water, steep some chamomile tea in the favorite mug, add some local honey, take seat at computer, and roll some Chad's Fab. :)
Glad to hear I'm good for something!!🤣😁
So- 24” zip ties go on drivelines perfectly…. Just to put them where they can wack wiring as they go down the road. Make a hellacious noise. 😂😮
I would love for you to do an up close and detailed tutorial on watertight wire terminations.
I'd also like to see the different blocks and connectors you choose and why.
I am working on some tech videos that will post in the nest month or so.
I love the way everyone just jumps in and does what needs to be done. As always entertaining and educational. Thanks for sharing.
Stay safe healthy and happy 👍
Young man go get a chair. I worked 37 years in mechanical contracting being on my knees on concrete. You don't even want to know what the outcome is. Get a chair and take care of yourself. LoL Great channel I love your videos
For the dropped connectors, sock or similar over a shopvac nozzle can help you pick them up quick.
Always a great informative show with family and friends....and a pretty lady pops up now and then...😉thank you..🙏🙏👨🌾🚜👨🌾
1972 Chevy 4x4 wrecker! I can't wait for the build series!
Hoping to get going on it in April.
It is just really enjoyable watching these trucks get passed around to the various craftsmen and their channels to get built and the finishing touches put on them. Great job to all!
These are all folks I would love to hang out with; and I get to, after a fashion. Have a great week y'all!
Loved the FabRats back lighting. Good job all.
Sorry for your loss Tyson prayers and love to you and your family.... Chad u guys are amazing when it comes to wiring God bless all of you and stay safe
A old sock or a rag on the shop vac works good for picking up dropped wire connectors
Great idea!
That truck sure sounds nice, I don't think of a wrecker when I hear it run. As always your wiring is art!
Found this channel through MORR and Fab Rats, but I'm subscribing because this channel ROCKS!
Thanks!!
Wow, what fantastic work, on what will be an awesome tow truck. Chad's family and friends are awesome and have such great sense of humor. So fun to watch. God Bless!
Thank you very much!
My prayers go out to Tyson and family, ❤️. 🇺🇸 God Bless America 🇺🇸. Be strong my friend.
Oh to be young Caden you won't want to do that when you get to be our age. God bless
Love seeing your family all involved.
Best wishes to Tyson, sorry for his loss always a tough thing to deal with.
Looks like your neighbors are building right up to your property. Only a matter of time before they complain you out of the neighborhood. Could fit a few houses on your plot of land. Just something that i have seen many times over the decades. Urban sprawl sucks.
Great job on the wrecker. Plans for the new wrecker?👍
I don't know how much longer before the city pushes me out.
My wrecker project will hopefully start in April if the weather is decent. Details and specifics will come then.
I would put counter weight on the towetruck you can see it can't take much more before it does a wheelie
I saw that also...she was doing the squats!
We didn't have the air system up and going yet so there isn't any air in the bags.
Seeing as to how even-keeled and detail-oriented Chad's fam business is... Paul brings an energy I'm sure everyone enjoys. Both have personalities I recall fondly from my own wrenching days. Clinical diligence is something I'm more biased to in work but we all need a Matt or Paul to remind us, the purpose of life is to have fun in service to others. Love your collabs and fabs, blessings from HI!
G.O.A.T 'S EVERYWHERE!! HOW DO YOU FEED THEM ALL?
Harbor Freight zip ties don't hold up well in outdoor use. You want the UV resistant ties.
Thanks for the video Chad nicely done with the wires 👍❤️❤️ it. Take care of yourself and family and be Blessed ❤️.
Thanks 👍
2:24 Thanks, Mom --- your kind caring motherly action of getting Kayden a kneeling-pad really "made my morning"! Sort of like when a young man falls asleep doing some difficult task, and so his mom brings a warm blanket to spread over him --- that was one of my favorite scenes in the "Black Stallion" movie, where Kelly Reno as Alec Ramsey is shown to have fallen asleep while tending the Black, and so his mom brings a blanket to drape over him, plus she also takes a moment to reverently stroke the stallion ("You're a really pretty horse") and thank him for saving Alec's life.
Love how all you different channels don't really care who's channel your on. Your working a project and working together.
A rising tide lifts all boats
Nice thing about having good friends. None of us are worried about who gets the credit we just things to keep progressing and have some fun in the process. Plus we get the added bonus of showing all of youtube family what we are doing.
@@chadsfab thanks for sharing your family and friends with us.
Great job guys. I love the wiring job very neat and organized.
Chad sure has Me beat in doing wiring harnesses, esp with narrow pins, Takes a LOT of patience!
Wow what a view I love the mountain scenery you guys get to look at everyday! Seeing Paul's wrecker moving is also a sight to see 😊
I believe that is the loudest I've ever heard Chad speak when Paul's boom about hit the garage door header. Hahahahaha
That was awesome seeing The RatRod Wrecker in action, great message at the end, Thank you Chad!
Thanks for watching!
is the safe anchored to the floor otherwise it would be a good idea to do so
I agree, take it from personal exp......get a kneeler pad. No shame in protecting your knees. Surgery doesn't always work....
Arthritis is not curable.
Concrete is not your friend 👍🤠👍
agree 100%
Wow sir I do a lot of mechanic work but I hate wiring and you do it so effortlessly. The calm and passionate you are about what you do is AWESOME.
I've just started watching your channel but am very surprised to learn I drive past your shop often and never knew! Our shop/yard is a couple miles away in the same area of AF! I'll make sure to honk and wave next time. Keep up the good work
*" Looks good for a Second Place Wrecker ". --------- Rory Irish*
😁😂
Chad, man how do I learn patience. I am about your age and my knees are blown out so I use these little pads and they are lifesavers. Dimple Kneeling Pad, High Density Thick Foam Comfort Kneeling Mats for Gardening, Yoga Exercise, Garden Cushions, Knee Pads and they are 1.5 inch thick get two off the Jungle for 20 bucks. Great show...
LOOKIN' GOOD, KEEP SAFE...
Very good video Chad. When you can film it try and get some close ups of you wiring. Reason is that's what ai did in my daily and hobby life. I would love tro make the wiring a pretty picture etc. oh, thanks for sharing
Look for some tech videos that will show more of the "boring" stuff in the nest month or so.
I am mind blown at the attention to detail and perfection you have when covering wires and making looms. If I lived any where fesibly close, you would my go to shop!!
Paul is going to have to put a little more air in the air bags.
He could do with some extra weight on the front like tractors have
We didn't have the air system up and going yet so there wasn't any air in the bags.
The front end felt pretty good with all the weight of the red truck hanging off of it.
Hey Chad and Family I love watching you guys and Paul Matt Rory Robby Rudy love All you guys ❤️👍🙏🏻✌️💪🏻
When Paul unhooked the red tow truck, I wondered if someone would remember to put the boom DOWN before putting Paul’s truck back in the garage. Someone was watching thank goodness!!
Prayers for Tyson and his family! Great vid! ✌
Don't know how I wasn't subscribed! My bad! People make sure you are subscribed!!!
👍
I really admire the way your family works together!
Sorry for your Loss Tyson I just lost a Daughter she got trapped in her Mobil Home and it Burned down it hurts so bad I can't sleep again I'm so sorry for your Loss. God Bless you and family.
Kaden should get in front of the camera more, out side of Chad he's my favorite. He is just like his Dad you never can tell when he's gonna say something funny but when he does it is definitely funny. 😊
I'm fairly new to this channel and thoroughly enjoying every video past and present, thank you for going through the work it takes to share your lives.
Sorry for your loss thoughts and prayers 🙏 for all involved 🙏
Poor souls condemned in hell, have to read electrical schematics while listening to "Copa Cabana" by Barry Manilow.
Nice that all the body and fender was done so you could get after the wiring.
Paul needs to put his wrecker head to head against Matt's "WLORR" and blow the regular horn... Let Matt respond with his horn thinking he's won and then hit the air horn... LOL
Chad and family- I just subscribed tonight to see the towtruck run and boy was it worth it! You do a great job and I look forward to many more videos! May God bless you and yours real good!
Paul your truck is too load. Better mufflers.
Chad you and your crew do awesome work, I was in the heavy equipment industry for 40+ years and what you do is no easy feat.
On my second time watching this video, this is the only channel I enjoy so much I watch the videos twice, but on my second go around did I hear that you're gonna paint Pauls truck??? A Fab Rats Vehicle getting a paint job, is Paul feeling OK? 😀 🤣😂😅😆 is the Wrecker Games bringing out a side of Paul we have never seen? 🤔 🙂🙂🙂
Thanks again for the videos.
Yeah. I'm like you. Did he say paint? 😊 Maybe some kinda clear eh?
Yep, a little bit of paint for the fenders and hood and some sharkhide to protect all of the bare metal. Look for it on Friday's vid.
@@chadsfab thank you for the heads up.
I find your wiring very interesting. Could you sometime take a few minutes and explain the process of "pinning" some of the different connectors?
Look for my tech videos in the next month or so.
Paul is going to have some interesting mishaps with that boom...unless he is a 'quick study', ...he almost took out Chad's garage header & door!
As always...beautiful work Chad & Crew! ...👌😎👍785
Yep, thought the same thing. Good thing he's got to have close to 20 foot door at his place.
You guys humbley make the magic happen! I love yalls friendly group of Tubers. Every builder needs a "wires guy" and it seems like you're the go-to friends in your area. Keep on keepin on!
Wow, thank you!
Your last comment is so true... When you surround yourself with good people, good things start to happen. God bless.
A true story about a airhorn I was driving trucks, and I was running with a friend who had air horns mounted right behind the cab on the passenger side. A car was pulled over. I was behind him. He blew his train horn. The woman stood straight up in the air on the passenger side, I know she Peed all over her self and I felt bad for her, but could not stop laughing
is it me or does that front bumper not look level ?
Watching you and your family work gives me hope and inspiration to complete my own projects ❤😊
Eric from BSF needs the light bar
"Till next time, remember to surround yourself with competent people" I'm still struggling with that one Chad but I'll get there eventually.
If the color of the Fab Rat wrecker hasn't been chosen yet, they should have a contest for all of the internet viewers to pick the color. Don't ask me how, I don't have any idea. But if it could happen, it would be awesome.
The sheet metal of the wrecker will all be the same as the cab. All of the bare metal will remain bare but will be treated with a protectant.
Chad, you are an amazing man who is surrounded by a beautiful family. Love everyone's spirit. Everyone seems to be kind and all do the best possible job. Appreciate your videos and channel!
The ridiculously BIG bumper LED lights. Looks like a clown car 😲
That is going to be a fine tow truck. Paul's dad would certainly be proud of that!!!
Your channel is getting to be one of my favs on YT. Love the family dynamic and work ethic. Keep it up!
Awesome! Thank you!
I really enjoy your videos! Thank you so much
This will be the wrecker to beat at the off road games
RORY will be the wrecker to beat at the off road games
@Fabrats I think Paul needs to hook up that air horn as a back up alarm. Most Annoying Back Up Alarm In the WORLD! 😎
