I used to drive these in the Australian Army, like first comment, need ballast in the back. Also before all water operations we took off all inspection hatches and drain plugs then greased them up and put them back on. We sealed everything with grease!
I really love how Heavy D gets a phone call at the lake about a recovery and he gets so excited that he starts thinking about everything he needs before they even leave the lake. Can't wait to watch it
I drove the M548 in the Canadian Armed forces, with an empty back you need to add ballast, it keeps the front up. Just for future reference if you try any of the other 113 family add ballast. With the amount of water coming in it looks like you lost a drain plug
My guess would be that those would be more used for crossing a river when theirs no bridge or for swamp basically where their isnt a proper road. Don't think its really meant to be a boat
Back in the 80's , me and my family were camping on the north end of Deer Creek when the National Guard showed up with some type of amphibious vehicle about 3x the size of Heavy D's machine here. They loaded up a bunch of us in the camp ground we were at and then proceeded to head towards the boat ramp and splash! Only, I was about 5 years old. I had no clue what was going on other than I was going to take a ride on the Army vehicle. Imagine my shock when I thought they were about to murder me! Anyways, they took us out for about an hour Stroll and allowed the adults to do dives off the water craft. I totally recommend you do this if you ever get the opportunity.
I started watching this channel because I met Diesel Dave in Moab rock crawling. Really cool guy. One of the kids that was on my Rock Crawling tour wanted his autograph and he stopped everything and even took a picture with our whole tour.
It was super cool to actually see this in person! We were the people who met you earlier that day with the red MasterCraft. We saw tons of smoke/steam from the other side of the lake and assumed something really bad happened to somebody (assumed it was the tank lol). Glad to find out it was only water in the fuel
Heavy D thank you for your great videos. Love watching you guys. Thanks m glad your best friend survive his accident. Prayers are truly answered. Be safe brother from one patriot to another GOD BLESS you and your family. You have made a lot of people happy with your kindness.
That looked like a blast! The water was gorgeous and the tank driving down the ramp in the water was mind-blowing. Never a dull moment! Peace and Love always...
That bilge pump was still finding plenty water to pump when you guys were halfway home. Where is all the water collecting? It might be worth finding out and trying to calm it down a bit. Maybe a job for the new owner.😁
hey D maybe put some air baffles on the front of the tank to compensate for the extra weight and maybe put tanks on the back that you can fill up with water to level it out and then you can drain the water out when you get back on dry land so its not so heavy!! btw love this video!! you always come up with some awsome shows
AWESOME! Heavy D, in this next recovery, can you do a segment on snatch blocks, how to use them, and safety? I am about to procure some for personal use should I get stuck in my new (to me) Raptor.
Dealt with many of these in the Cold War days...ol V53 Detroit...we swapp those packs and hope the one you installed didn't run away ...the ol Super Charger GMC 671 Blower could such down and chew up 3 to 4 inch Army TM manuals and spit them out ...same packs used in the M113 APC'S , Vietnam Era equipment. We had a lot of fun with those ol tracks ...this type chassis was also use for the ADA Chappell 's which shot the surface to air sidewinders .....Never Ever forget the old V53 sound ... cool deal to see the ol Warrior still moving forward ... 👍
That is so awesome even the part of break down cause so many track veh can’t be towed when they lose power and being able to pull it onto land and even showing how fairly easy it was to also load onto trailer makes ya feel better if u break down and not have to leave it somewhere
Heavy D the best part of this video was that you guys had a big smile on your face and y'all had a lot of fun and my book that's a lot of good energy and positivity on you guys God bless each and everyone of you thank you for the video watching all the way from Spain peace out
I wish I knew this channel was up and running again sooner. I started watching in the beginning and stopped when the videos did. But I'm extremely excited to see you're going again. I'm not able to watch the TV show but absolutely love your RUclips channel!!!!! I just spent the last few days catching up to present time and can't wait to see more of what's happening. Great job to everyone involved and keep safe!!!!
Man I have so many ideas running through my head of fun things that could be done with that machine! Our freaking military builds some of the most awesome machinery on this planet! Can't wait to see the excavator recovery! Gonna be a good one!
M113 Family, and not a troop carrier. We use to call them Track Load Carriers here in Australia to move cargo . . . and Yep . . . as the others have said, there is a process to follow before swimming these things. Checking all your Drain, Inspection and Service Hatches seals are sealing correctly so no water gets in at all. Extra weight added to the cargo area to trim them out so they sit nice and even in the water. If you do it right . . . your bilge pumps don't pump any water, and providing you have flat water . . . they'll swim all day . . . use to be fun operating them.
You guys have such great times...looks fun. Never disappointed... You should have a fan day -where one or two fans get to hangout with you for an epic adventure/ recovery... I want to be the first
M548 Cargo carriers were primarily used by the field artillery to carry ammunition. The largest difference in controls between the M113 models and this variant is the steering. All models use independent braking on each set of tracks to make it go left or right. Primary steering is by those two metal rods "laterals" (its not an "A3 model, those have steering wheels and power brakes) What's missing from the M548 are the two upper steering levers for water operation. I drove 113A2 and M577 A2's (among other vehicles)until 1995 when I left Armor for Engineering. Beats walking ! Death before Dismount.
Hey Dave, the military has a load schedule for fording their vehicles. That being said, ballast added to the bed at near the scheduled weight will bring the nose up. I heard DD say something about a Gamma Goat. Those I do know about. We tested the fording capabilities when I was in the service. 1 of three the first trip out. Learning curve. 4/4 on the next. You have to load them properly or you will sink it. QUICK. Good luck.
dude on the jet ski was awesome. that thing is a beast. my dads dad was a US Marine who fought on japans soil with his m16. i wouldnt be surprised if he rolled on one of these brand new. love your videos bro
Those are designed to have heavy loads in the rear. Like 30+ guys or full of equipment. It’s designed to ride in water at the water line that the front was at. So it rides lower in water actually.
So cool to see a truck builder actually working their builds. Most others build prissy mall crawlers, you guys build working trucks. Next Utah lake you should visit is Bear Lake. It's over 7 miles wide and over 20 miles long. Plus Logan canyon is a scenic drive and Raspberry days started today.
I might comment to much but I wanted to say I actually watch every minute of your videos. They are really entertaining and different than anyone else. I remember years ago when I seen your first 6 door truck build. Well the first one I seen anyway. I thought these guys are amazing. That's something I think all of us truck guys dream of. On a side note the van build would have been epic to see as well.
Loved watching the pickup truck become the VTR !!!!! ....An ol Arny term for Vehicle Track Recovery ....aka Tank Retriever...M578, M88 .....GLAD the ol Warrior roll good ....yall brought a smile and laughs to this Old Soldier ☺
Now that's pretty cool.👍👍👊 What brought me to your channel in the first place was the recovery of the bulldozers and the two excavators. Can't wait to see this one
I worked on these in Germany in B Battery 1/75 Field Artillery Unit. They were used for hauling 8 inch artillery shells for our M110 howitzers. Never used them in water tho.
That's one cool video Starting watching when you rescued the excavators in the desert. Didn't know you were diesel people. Just thought you all were a good group of guys doing cool things.👍
The M548 is a cargo carrier not a personal carrier. It was mostly used to carry rounds for the M155 and M110 howitzer in the US Army. There is no HI & Lo on the M548 it just a three speed. You also need to add counter weight to the rear of the vehicle and it will level out. Those plug that you were trying to pull are bleed valves for the disk brakes there that are used for swimming. The two handles by the master cylinders right in front of the lats.
I was a squad leader and operator of one of those in the Army stationed in Korea. They'll float but not like a boat. Its front heavy. Any minor hole and it will take on water. Drain plugs do rattle out. We kept her moving at all times and could not wait to get off the water
My boyfriend and I are stuck in the grand canyon national park with a 2000 ford f250 7.3 with a blown tranny, a 35ft long camper, and now a 2000 Ford focus. We tried pulling the camper and truck out with the car and it blew the radiator hose. No taxis will come into the park and get us neither will tow trucks. His birthday was the 5th and mine is tomorrow! If there is anyway we could get a rescue tow out of the canyon we'd owe you a big one!
I was a recovery specialist back in the army in 19 95 and you need to look into the ma I think it's a ma 257 recovery vehicle am 880 full recovery vehicle I think you would love these vehicles, I also drove the 5-ton record back in that date and transport vehicle the Oshkosh and transporter the 8-inch howitzer had a lot of fun you bring back a lot of memories thank you very much
Another quality Vlog with Big Boy Toyz, thanks Heavy D!!! Looking forward to the excavator recovery you talked about in the end of the video, can't wait to watch it!!
Our artillery corps use these stuff all day long to carry shells for the propelled artillery vehicles... But I had absoloutely no idea these things are amphibious as well. What I love about these things is just the fact it handles like the standard M113, only it sits much higher and its easier to operate because you got a lot of visibility as well just like a small truck.
My dad showed me this video because the old guys you chatted with were my dad and my uncle! My dad had no idea who you were but now he says he’s famous for being in your video. 😂 it was really fun to see my dad make you laugh too. The interaction with him was so fun for me to see.
Huntington!!! That’s my old stomping grounds. I lived in Cleveland and spent most of my time in Huntington. Been gone to long so I can’t recommend any food there but close to price is carbonville. Groggs is the place to go or in Helper balance rock for the win.
Good showing,watching y’all is better than watching TV keep it up great job love watching y’all’ keep it up have a great day. And well see ya next time see ya by.
Thinking on it, the Weasel would have been better to go rescue that stuck school bus. Weasels have lower ground pressure (per sq. inch) than FEET do (this is why they do so well in a swamp/snow). There should be a trim vane on the front (where those hinges are they had their feet on) the bilge pump(s) (there should be a battery powered electric pump) EITHER OF THEM, should be able to nearly empty it, if she was full, in less than five minutes.... P.S. I did notice that ONE of you was smart enough to have/put on a PFD!
Absolutely love you guys and your constant " pushing the limits " problem solving. Bad@$$ capacities. Truly my enjoyment in the day is watching what ya'll have going next. Keep the adventures going! Sparks Adventures International!
Man An O Ring in a fuel cap brought the beast to it's knees it always the smallest least expected piece that will get you Great recovery. Hangin' for the Next big Dozer recovery you announced.
U guys are awesome. Should have 10 mill. Subscribers. I was born in Ogden Utah and left when I was 2. Wish I would have stayed. Def would have followed yall to help. Keep up the awesome things you guys do for your state and our nation.
What a trip that was . It was like watching camp Pondo live in Germany. Swimming exercise with Chaparrals.. testing uses a tow cable . So far out Incase they sunk. If they pass the test . They swam across Pondo..so much like it just no cab. Blast shields went there.. what it trip man... .👍👍😎
I used to drive these in the Australian Army, like first comment, need ballast in the back. Also before all water operations we took off all inspection hatches and drain plugs then greased them up and put them back on. We sealed everything with grease!
Well gosh golly, we are missing some Boy Scouts, you know the ones that are always prepared.
even door gaskets?
As an Aussie, thank you for your service 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
@jay l very cool. Hopefully @heavydsparks sees your comment
Thank you for your service!
I really love how Heavy D gets a phone call at the lake about a recovery and he gets so excited that he starts thinking about everything he needs before they even leave the lake. Can't wait to watch it
Heavy D to the rescue
thats a fact that got my hype to watch
I drove the M548 in the Canadian Armed forces, with an empty back you need to add ballast, it keeps the front up. Just for future reference if you try any of the other 113 family add ballast. With the amount of water coming in it looks like you lost a drain plug
Exactly. I'd like to add gaskets and cracks.
Thanks for serving!
that drain plug will get ya everytime
Was it fun
God bless our Canadian military!
My guess would be that those would be more used for crossing a river when theirs no bridge or for swamp basically where their isnt a proper road. Don't think its really meant to be a boat
The black pickup dragging that thing like nothing was pretty impressive honestly.
That's because it was a ford.
@@AbandonedCanada-333 yes being a ford it's more impressive. It's probably a fummins.
Ford does make some pretty stout shit if you have the money to spend 🤩
yup built ford tough heavy d loves them!!
Thing called ROLLING RESISTANCE
14:00 I like how you guys are talking about the thing sinking and Dave is just fishing
I love the tiger shark paint job. I served in the unit when it was reflagged to the 1/229 so we painted them on our apaches
Awesome. Thank you for your service
I live in SLC and I’m pretty sure I saw his new “mystery vehicle” being delivered on the freeway. It’s also an amphibious vehicle
Absolutely love too hang out with these guys full of passion and joy for what they do. Fairplay to ye men. Love from Ireland 🇮🇪
Hey poncho I think you misspelled your name there bud. Has two Ls. Unless that’s what you’re going for.
Diesel Dave is definitely the star of this channel the guy never disappoints
agree!
I would say they all are the stars. Wouldn't have an awesome channel like this without all of them.
@@kimballr35 yeah they are but he’s the stand out guy with the way he is
The dudes personality is awesome
They are all crazy in there own way. They always have fun with each adventure. Fun to watch.

What a fun video to watch. Can you imagine those guys riding that thing into battle from a ship? Great respect to them for their sacrifice.
It was super cool to actually see this in person! We were the people who met you earlier that day with the red MasterCraft.

Shoutout to DIESEL DAVE, super hilarious, and overall seems like a genuine dude...
I think this would give cleetus' "submarine" a run for its money
Dave is living every mans dream life. I am definitely a little jealous
That bilge pump was still finding plenty water to pump when you guys were halfway home. Where is all the water collecting? It might be worth finding out and trying to calm it down a bit. Maybe a job for the new owner.😁
I love how you all get excited about a recovery job!
Diesel Dave you are one badass guy I love the part when you're carrying the chains through the water you make this channel fun to watch
New Saturday routine with my 4 year old.......watch Heavy D shenanigans while Mikey cheers everyone on.
hey D maybe put some air baffles on the front of the tank to compensate for the extra weight and maybe put tanks on the back that you can fill up with water to level it out and then you can drain the water out when you get back on dry land so its not so heavy!! btw love this video!! you always come up with some awsome shows
Thank you Heavy D and crew for helping out with Adventure With Purpose today at the dam you are real hero's bless you all
AWESOME! Heavy D, in this next recovery, can you do a segment on snatch blocks, how to use them, and safety? I am about to procure some for personal use should I get stuck in my new (to me) Raptor.
One thing I can say about this is: every time you go out it’s an adventure!! Love it!! ❤️❤️
Honestly was pretty insane seeing the jet ski pull it in. That was pretty sick not going to lie.
Dealt with many of these in the Cold War days...ol V53 Detroit...we swapp those packs and hope the one you installed didn't run away ...the ol Super Charger GMC 671 Blower could such down and chew up 3 to 4 inch Army TM manuals and spit them out ...same packs used in the M113 APC'S , Vietnam Era equipment.

The sheer fact it still did its purpose despite how old it is is amazing and it just goes to show they don't make things like they used to!
I cannot describe how happy it makes me that in 2021 people are still allowed to have fun. Kickass video.

I just took a break from work and grab some lunch and like always watching Heavy D & the Gang on my lunch break is so enjoyable

I NEED IT..
HOA would love that 🤣
Was that Squidward? 😂

Let's chip in.
WE NEED IT
What a unit! Love it! 🤘 Also, stoked on the giant excavator recovery, those of some of my favourite videos on this channel!!
Living life on the edge. Love it

That next video sounds pretty exciting!! This one was great too. Keep up the good work guys
Your an absolutely mad bunch 🤣🤣🤣. Seeing you all makes me wish I was there with you'll xx
That's one cool video
Starting watching when you rescued the excavators in the desert. Didn't know you were diesel people. Just thought you all were a good group of guys doing cool things.👍
They have a tv show all about diesels
My boss has 2 DUKW boats. They are amazing to drive and see in operation. And yes they do still float. God Bless the USA 🇺🇸
Love these kind of videos y’all just keep it up doing what y’all do and loving it everyday and I can’t wait to see this next recovery of the excavator
I'm loving Dave's Truck.. Super Slick.
Should of looked into how the water reached the fuel tank the first time but the tank is sweet!
The M548 is a cargo carrier not a personal carrier. It was mostly used to carry rounds for the M155 and M110 howitzer in the US Army. There is no HI & Lo on the M548 it just a three speed. You also need to add counter weight to the rear of the vehicle and it will level out. Those plug that you were trying to pull are bleed valves for the disk brakes there that are used for swimming. The two handles by the master cylinders right in front of the lats.
''Eathan rate this from one to ten''. in the back ground.. Dave just flicking a line completely unfazed by the situation haha!!
I was a squad leader and operator of one of those in the Army stationed in Korea. They'll float but not like a boat. Its front heavy. Any minor hole and it will take on water. Drain plugs do rattle out. We kept her moving at all times and could not wait to get off the water

That’s a sweet freakin ride bro! Being as old as it is and and still floats is mind blowing!
A new toy and a new recovery sounds like a double win to me
What an epic adventure cruising the M548! She’s a beast and the fact it was chugging along drinking lake water and some diesel, is simply epic
