Always love the custom accessories! Never a boring episode. I have used alot of your temp/permanente solutions on my rides. Keep up the fun and GOD BLESS 🇺🇸.
Poor David! Your leg got DECIMATED! ooof! DA! What you and Matt go thru to bring us awesome content. THANK YOU!!!!! Signed, Sincerely, Justin. Forever in your debt, and Associate editor Chris for that time you put me in Hot Rod Magazine. Love you guys!!!!
This has always been a dream project of mine. I always wanted to get a crappy ford ranger and build a tube chassis with a couple ranger pieces still in it to not get pulled over constantly. P.s. can you guys go into depth on engine/trans specs, its pretty hard to get anybody to talk about it beyond cubic inches/number of speeds.
Short course offroad racing is what got me away from drag racing. My cousin, Dad, my buddy and I built Rotax 670 swapped 85 honda odysseys. There was a track in western PA that had a pilot/odyssey/utv class. My first step in the offroad world and I loved everything about it. Not to mention compared to drag racing it felt abnormally cheap. I drag raced the first 1000whp e36 328 so everytime I touched the track I knew it was going to be expensive. Once I hit my 9 second mark I was pretty much done. Oh and to return to the track a parachute was required for trapping over 150 lol
The truck intake long runners make killer mid range power and help pull through into high rpm’s. Buddies ultra 4 was wicked fast after ls2 heads and long runner truck intake. Think it was right around 475whp vs 320whp before.
I never knew about the dzus fasteners. I had a bike with them all over it. Totally life changing, haven't seen them since, never knew what they were called.
Omg I love roadkill, I just thought to myself for the 800th time wouldn't that be great if you could build a street legal race truck. Threw that thought in the tube, and bam!
Tech Tip: when drilling holes in lexan, run the hole saw backwards. It still cuts, but isnt as agressive and rip the lexan apart. Makes a nice clean cut. You're welcome.
I'm thinking of so many hacks and pranks the wireless lights can be used for now. Replace the lights with a horn or an airbag that's hidden in the shop or behind a bush.
My dad probably would have got that fastener reference.... he worked in the aerospace industry.... :-) I recognized the fastener but didn't remember the term.
Hey Roadkill and Motortrend I’m not sure I can do this anymore? Here in Australia motortrend in its wisdom have block us from subscriptions for what reason I don’t know but I can’t live without my Roadkill ! so much so that I’ve even tried to fill the void with my own roadkill type thing on RUclips called Backshed. Please someone tell me how to get my motor trend subscription to work again in Australia!!
Nice knowledge dump on the Dzus fasteners. That's funny people thought Zeus, got of lightning. Though, I suppose that fits. This is such a killer truck. How many banks did Finn rob to get that thing? o0 WAY too good fro RoadKill, but still lookin' forward to seeing it on YTube.
man, my father's old Model 40 John Deere had Dzus (named after the fella who invented 'em) fasteners for the hood, we used screwdrivers and quarters to remove 'em before finding out there was a specific tool.
Awesome truck for sure but a light bar around my area is against the law to run down the road with it turned on would of looked cool with some kind of fog lights where the headlights should of been
How did the fastener come to be? The designer tripped on a ship decklid fastener and severely messed up his foot. So he came up with a flush mounted fastener. Dzuz? Duez? I can't remember. Some aircraft types have wingnut style fastener, then again you don't walk on engine cowlings.
@@zoeystewart10 I’m glad your setup works for you. I like the shows, especially engine masters. I have a high powered pc that runs everything on the tv with super high speed internet. Every service I have used, has worked with my setup. Motortrend failed constantly on the main tv and iPhones.
That’s good and also you can get a truck on the junk yard to make a cooler car of it in the junkyard I’m understand how good it looks good take a ford or a gmc pick up I’m for sure about the cars and trucks going fast to be off road for the day I am in a mechanic in school and also I’m a fan of road kill that will be awesome 😎 If you need anything else to take a cool ride I love watching it all day Long every day I watch road kill of you guys
Nobody thought you meant Zeus fasteners. You were just trying to find an opening to explain something everybody knows about. And that's a starter switch button.
You would not believe how many people look at me I would ask them take off the dzus locks off the in side panels to pull the transmission. They look at me like I was stupid. I run up at MAR Raceway Wentzville Missouri. Back in late 90s an middle 80s i raced there only one pull in with my semi an I had my chimpanzee with me name Tuffy.
Been watching these guys since around 2013. I haven’t seen an episode of Roadkill for a while and this brought me back to those times❤️
same thought, but for me it took to long, before i saw the first zipp ties;))
Same here. Really missing roadkill!
Yah, Roadkill went pay-only and it's only available in America. :-( SIGH...
Motor trend on demand is worth every dollar
@@terminalpsychosis8022 use a vpn to get it to work in any country
Episodes like this bring back just how much I miss Roadkill being available easily here in the UK 😢
Thanks for uploading what you fo 👍
i am so much with you. same in germany.
Same, Finland.
Same sweden here 😓
@@nemo247 +1 😪
Same Thailand
This looks like a really good episode!!!!! I wish y’all were still free or just a one time fee 😩, I just don’t do reoccurring payments.
Wow a free episode.... Miss this show.
I used to watch this as a young teen and this episode really reminded me of those days. Glad you guys put it on RUclips for us to see
Part of it...
Nice to see you two again together…Finnegan looks so old…
Always love the custom accessories! Never a boring episode. I have used alot of your temp/permanente solutions on my rides. Keep up the fun and GOD BLESS 🇺🇸.
it would be nice to have mtod available in europe again...
You are living my dream with this one. Love these trucks and the racing. Great vid. I too thought Zeus'ing was welding. Learned something new.
I haven’t watch roadkill in years. Brought back lots of memories
Poor David! Your leg got DECIMATED! ooof! DA! What you and Matt go thru to bring us awesome content. THANK YOU!!!!! Signed, Sincerely, Justin. Forever in your debt, and Associate editor Chris for that time you put me in Hot Rod Magazine. Love you guys!!!!
Found the Norweigan :D
Just finished watching this episode. One of the best episodes. I want to see the hemi gremmie
"I'll just Zeus it back on there"
A comment that will never die and true fans will always remember. Have to admit, I too thought it meant weld!!
That's what I love about Arizona. We can street legal anything out here.
Maaaaaaaan!!!!! I want to see this whole episode lol. Love roadkill!!!
Off road race truck or not, that is WAY too nice for you guys! Soo looking forward to seeing more of this!
Been watching for a while now and seeing them in my home town is amazing
Thank you so much!!!! I learned so much from my Roadkill family!!!! Thanks for sharing!!!
Mirrors and beers, that's all you need 🍻
This is way too nice for a roadkill episode

Why we can't watch in Europe?
This is the first glimpse at an episode that I've seen since they left RUclips 😅. Man I love these guys, I almost forgot the show existed.
The truck intake long runners make killer mid range power and help pull through into high rpm’s. Buddies ultra 4 was wicked fast after ls2 heads and long runner truck intake. Think it was right around 475whp vs 320whp before.
How much did the truck cost?
love the shows and everything but still sad i can't watch all my favorite shows due to my current location being blocked :(
This is beyond cool, an extension of my dreams !
Pity I can’t watch it in Australia
You guys are always fun to watch!
I never knew about the dzus fasteners. I had a bike with them all over it. Totally life changing, haven't seen them since, never knew what they were called.
Freiburger and Finnegan back at it! So classic.....👍
Omg I love roadkill, I just thought to myself for the 800th time wouldn't that be great if you could build a street legal race truck. Threw that thought in the tube, and bam!
You guys are the best! Never stop making content!
just keeps getting better and only get to watch teasers

A former customer of mine had one of those truck built and ran it in competition it was pretty cool
I'm thinking of so many hacks and pranks the wireless lights can be used for now. Replace the lights with a horn or an airbag that's hidden in the shop or behind a bush.
thanks guys!!
Nice episode,looks like a fun ride. Correct that rev limiter and have a lot more fun. 👍👍🍺

Why isn't this on the app when you say at the end it is
we need a compilation on the roadkill muscle truck every episodes

i like how they taped the sparco-logo on the seats, but focus right on the one of fuelsafe on the cell
Awesome
The boys are back
man, my father's old Model 40 John Deere had Dzus (named after the fella who invented 'em) fasteners for the hood, we used screwdrivers and quarters to remove 'em before finding out there was a specific tool.
Are those tires cut and grooved? Never seen any open country's that look like that
i miss this show
Would love to pay too see the whole thing
I would buy Motortrend OnDemand if I could but I'm in Australia and it's region blocked... please allow us Australians to watch the Roadkill boys!!
Wish we could still watch it in england
Cool 2 roadkill boys and truck yes made m'y day✌
I learned english beacuse of roadkill and now I speak fluent thanks to roadkill
Motortrend administration, please work on making motortrend on demand available to the rest of the world again. It's been too long.
Living the dream I see
In their case, I would fit some OE headlights and taillights, and some side markers around the vehicle also
Can't get moto trend in nz which sucks.
you guys are crazy... i love it
The bands back together
Awesome truck for sure but a light bar around my area is against the law to run down the road with it turned on would of looked cool with some kind of fog lights where the headlights should of been
Ahhh, the heat. Like riding my Ducati Panigale.
Finnegan is living my dream
Man, yall gotta do a Takua special where yall turn a single cab Chevy pick up into a certified "tuned for racing" monster
DZUS - "Danger Zone Unless Secure"
Roadkill is back to youtube???? Ok
Finnigan Block and the hooninkill
I miss Roadkill. Yes I know, no I'm not going to fork out for a subscription. Thanks for the teaser though. :)
No VIN, no go in Wi.
Tons of old pro-2s, 4s, and Pro lite rollers laying around.
rpm limiter ... fantastically great at extending the engines life span .. But for gear-heads ,the rev limiter is bliss wrecker
Especially at 3500rpm !!!
What’s with the taped off sparco logo ?
Remember when they just threw a dart at a map and looked for a car to road trip back?
Didn't know these guys were still friends
How did the fastener come to be? The designer tripped on a ship decklid fastener and severely messed up his foot. So he came up with a flush mounted fastener. Dzuz? Duez? I can't remember. Some aircraft types have wingnut style fastener, then again you don't walk on engine cowlings.
Apparently we can't watch roadkill in Australia anymore
It's the US only now. I was super dissapointed when I first found out
yeh sorry we cant afford to pay for the subscription service guys still love the content
If anyone tried this in Australia, the vehicle would be seized, crushed & driver fined about $2000 and lose 4 licence points.... SIGH
realy nice yall
Y’all should turn it into your version of the batmobile
The guy with the shorts and a pronounced “Lisp” has chicken legs lol
Motortrend on demand is garbage. Come back to RUclips. I’ll never use that app again. Crashes every 30 seconds.
I got motortrend on demand on Amazon Prime on my TV Never had an issue

why would people think dzus meant weld when mike said they had to make flanges first? 🤦♂️
i would love to watch this episode but some bright spark at motortrend decided to black australia
That’s good and also you can get a truck on the junk yard to make a cooler car of it in the junkyard I’m understand how good it looks good take a ford or a gmc pick up I’m for sure about the cars and trucks going fast to be off road for the day I am in a mechanic in school and also I’m a fan of road kill that will be awesome 😎
If you need anything else to take a cool ride
I love watching it all day Long every day I watch road kill of you guys
If you have gray in your beard then it's time to start bending that hat brim lol.
Bring mtod back to Australia.
Best ever
Nice flip flops

Motortrend, I have money, I'm in the UK and I want to watch roadkill. Wanna trade this money for the ability to do so?
longeeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrr episodes please.
Legal really , show the insurance card on it
FSM...... Flying Spaghetti Monster? Have you been touched by His noodley appendage?
Na zues means weld now
I'm soooo jealous
Awsome
What are you going to name it?!?! Off-Rhodey?
