On a positive note: With the 62mm throttle body, maybe you'll run out of gas *_BEFORE_* you pass the last gas station instead of after you pass the last gas station.
It is good that everyone in the shop gets experience in doing a wide variety of jobs. It makes the whole crew multi-dimensional. It should take some pressure off of Matt and Lizzy and Tom. You guys always seem to make things interesting. Which will continue to delight the fans.
Lol you know Matts gotta have 10 other "parade trucks" sitting in his lot 😂 That poor woman probably just wants to go on vacation and spend some 1 on 1 time with Matt
Renovating a beautiful old truck like that could generate a lot views and new subscribers. Speaking of which, is Rory ever going to make a start on Robby's wrecker build?
Chalupa Batman-I don’t remember if Matt has any daughters, but she could take a cue from Michele Cox and do the “Girl’s Vacation” option. Leave Matt sweating and grimy from doing off-road recoverys while she hangs out at the beach.
Awesome to see the repair/upgrade projects getting handled. The trailer winch really looks the business now. Plus the skills building for the "C" crew is good. Those guys have such great attitudes about not being good at stuff but getting in there, having a laugh, and learning.
Matt's smile at 17:17 into the video is priceless; like a kid walking into a toy store. Love it. We also love how gentle he is with the trauma dog. Great video. ❤
The “Vibe” in the Banana with Matt , Tom and Jayme made me feel the respect and friendship that you all have for each other... almost like a Sibling thing. Matt, and Jayme you have created a great Family, Community Oriented business that I truly enjoy watching. I met you all at Jeep Invasion in Pigeon Forge ( I was amazed at the line of fans at your booth) and look foreword to doing it again this year.) God Bless you all, be safe in the shop and out and about in your work.. MWP Cosby, Tn. You
Isn,t it great when a full blown Engineer with all his abilities describes how a throttle works , RRRRRRRRRRRRRrrrrrrrrrrrrrrRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Love it
I imagine working for Matt can be long, strange hours, but he seems nice and honestly very few places will train or help employees get better anymore, so that’s sweet to guide these guys to do a little more ( even if it is a punishment lol )
If I worked for Matt, I think I would just steal Eds old trailer and not even worry about what time it is and just sleep whenever there's a lull in activity 😂
it's great seeing Ed out and about...and it's great always improving the fleet and your trailer's.... and having the crew giving each other encouragement to each other...and the 🐕 dog's love the attention given 😀 😊...keep making great videos 📹 👍 😀 and always thinking about your community and willingness to help other's...thanks 😀
Ok it's good to see Jake and Colby stepping up and learning to weld. Matt needs these guys. Tom put a bigger throttle body on the Banana that should help and they repaired the trailer. Looks like Matt has a new project coming up.
A lot of people back in the day put Cadillac 389 OHV V-8's into Studebaker trucks of that vintage. My first boss back in '67 had one in his '51Studebaker pickup...with a same vintage Hydra-Matic. That truck screamed! A real blast to drive for a 16 year old!'
Grandfather passed away a few months ago, he had a lot of stories about working in the Studebaker plant. He use to do the final adjustments on the factory line for the door jams so they would open/close/latch nicely. His entire toolkit for the job was a block of wood and a hammer.
Thats cool lol those guys had more skill and craftsmanship in a pinky than most men do now days. Sorry for your loss brother his memories and stories live through you, make sure you pass them down!
So door adjustment on the factory line hasn’t changed much. Now they just use neoprene hammers and arm strength to tweak everything into alignment. New people send a lot of vehicles to final repair before they get good at it.
Nice job learning to weld. It was fun watching when Lizzie learned. She can lay down some nice welds. Regarding projects: Could it be time to work on the Tangerine and give it some love?! Jaymie does a lot. Keep up the great videos.
Yea that's not good, condo dwellers do not like the noise from industrial shop garages and people road testing mods. Yall already have major water shortages out west, you need to protest your local governments until they stop permitting more developments when you don't have enough water for what you already have. It's bad enough idiots terraformed the desert and commifornia decades ago so people could live and farm there. And you wonder now why you don't have enough water, it's a DESERT idiots! Nature will reclaim what you tried to steal from her, what once was desert will be again, it's only a matter of time...... Millions of people are going to be displaced from the west and commiefornia in the coming decades due to no more water from WAY over use and abuse from housing and farming that should not exist there. A reckoning is coming for those folks. Twas a foolish man who built his house upon the sand......
My Mom has a 1949 2R5 Studebaker flat bed like that in her garage that was her Dads when he passed away... It has been parked there since 1977!! One of these days I hope to get it out and running. It was an old local ice delivery truck and still has the name on the doors and cab.... I'd love to see you do something with that one!!
Changes like that require a retune to actually get any notable difference. The computer will take a long time to “learn” the new fueling map and will probably just max out the long term fuel trims. So it’ll never actually be right if it can’t add enough fuel to make up for the extra air.
Actually… if you don’t change the size of the tube hold the MAF sensor or whatever type of air flow sensor they are using you shouldn’t need to retune. The amount of air should still be correctly be accounted for. Changing the size of the throttle body shouldn’t throw off the calculations… but yeah still a good idea to watch fuel trims
All Tom’s revving noise got my cat to perk up and pay attention. Must have been pretty genuine engine sounds. As for noise and interference with video taping…..nothing too significantly bad. Sounds good. Hope it works out on the trail.
I had a hot metals class in high school (I think I was a sophomore). I choose oxyacetylene welding and the forge. The welds were judged on the consistency of overlap of the beads - meaning consistency of strength across the piece - and then the welded piece was put in a vice and hammered over 90 degrees. If there were no fractures, that was an A.
A larger TB normally effects bottom end and mid range more than top end. Depending on how smart the ECM is it can take several drive cycles for the ECM to optimize the new MAF/TPS numbers.
In my youth, I stick welded the roof trusses for a very large airplane hanger. Not only did I weld each truss piece together, I also welded them up unto the roof structure. It was my first time welding and I was able to get proficient while welding the trusses on a horizontal bench. By the time I had to weld them in place up in the air from the under side, I was able to make smooth solid welds. I went through four long sleeve shirts and two pair of jeans from all the welding sparks. The only complaint the owner of the hanger had about my welding, was that I used too many welding sticks. He just wanted me to make small weld tacks. He changed his mind about how many long welds I made when a tornado hit the hanger 3 years later and the only damage was the metal screwed on roof sheeting that came off. All the trusses were intact. Thank You for sharing the newbies welding experience.
I took flack for how heavy I built a little plans table shack that was installed on the roof of a grocery store we were wiring until the day the thing was hit by a bail of roof insulation from about 200 feet in a 40 mile an hour gust with us being about 15 feet away from the other edge of the roof. It bent but it didn't sheer off and take us with it. Some people are asses.
You guy's need to build a roof/shield for that winch your putting on the trailer ✌️protect it from rain and snow in winter, will help alot when the time comes... No frozen wires or anything 💪👌
Tom, as a former mechanic school instructor I believe that was the best explanation of how a throttle body operates ever! Those "carburetors with wires" fuel systems confuse a lot of folks.
you should have a anderson connector on the back of the tow vehicle to hook up to the winch much better idea so you can have the truck running winch runs better and faster as you have to make sure battery is charged up on the trailer all the time !
Put a 50 watt solar panel over the battery. The trailer isn't used daily and the solar panel would keep the battery hot when it sits in the yard between jobs.
I said this to another reply. We are just gonna see them using the jump box on the dead battery all the time now, if they can't remember to get gas, they sure as hell won't remember to keep the trailer battery charged lol. Hard wired to the tow vehicle with a plug like an Anderson is the only way to go for a trailer winch.
That last truck that Matt was driving was a Chevy or GMC somewhere between a 60 and a 66, by seeing some of the interior, but not sure what size. Probably one ton based on the mirrors. Just testing my memory of what I remember. The Banana has a good running 6 in it with enough power to get the job done. The trailer looks great and a 12,000 pound winch should be able to load about anything that will fit on the bed which by the way always seems just about a foot too short for the 4 seater side by side.
Great video..this group of guys is a blast in the shop..and Ed getting his spunk back is awesome! I thought Matt had a new girlfriend till I heard her talk and realized it was Jamie..that new hairstyle looked great..or maybe it’s just humid out in Utah and them curls are showing up! Are we gonna have a classic truck mixed with giant military axles?
Matt, your next project should be the world’s largest off-road flatbed recovery truck. Just load it up and go. No more worrying about downhill sections with the wrecker.
The Edge throttle body on my 4.0 make the same sucking sound I heard the banana making when it was cold. It came with a programmer that all 3 sensors plug into & makes the throttle too jumpy for smooth off roading.
Don't forget to install a dual battery isolator and add the power wire to the trailer plug so the tow vehicle charging system can keep the trailer winch battery charged.
Are we seeing the beginning of the WLORRB Worlds Largest Off Road Roll Back with that old truck? It would be so much better than a trailer. It wouldn't be good for all jobs but a good portion would become super easy!
Speaking of that, Matt said the banana is faster than the Morrvair....I don't see how that's possible? Doesn't the Morrvair have a bigger corvette-built motor with a supercharger? The jeep just has a pos tiny jeep v8. Sorry I'm biased, Jeeps suck lol. Toyota all day every day if you want real quality and reliability.
Add a simple 2-5a solar charger on the trailer. It should be enough to never worry about charging it again. Also I would love it if there was a workbench sized "Sally".
Come to the hospital I work at and checkout the orthopedic surgical team I work with. We use a lot of tools you would find familiar. Except we don’t weld.😁
You need to “dyno” that bad boy! When AMC brought this engine out they were able to get over 300 HP out of this motor experimentally. They brought it out in pretty mild tune. I had one in my 1987 XJ and it was a good motor. It was much better than my 1984 Chevy supplied V-6.
On a positive note: With the 62mm throttle body, maybe you'll run out of gas *_BEFORE_* you pass the last gas
station instead of after you pass the last gas station.
Most Jeep owners know that stands for Just Empty Every Pocket lol
this guy.
6:07 Bahaha don’t think Ed can lie, he just says it in a slightly less blunt/more polite way.😂
Ed with the brutal "That's welding?!".
Ed’s always ready with some shade, haha.
Sarcastic !i see
That made me laugh!
I love Ed! Can't beat honesty! Lol!
😂😂
Tom's throttle sound effects are golden. 😄
Ed : "that's welding?" lol
Been missing Ed in the vids, really great to see him popping back in again.
As an ASE certified mechanic, I can truthfully say that TomTom's description of how a throttle body works is _spot-on_ !
Even his sound effects? 😉
@@TrevorDennis100 Especially his sound effects!
As a guy who changes his own oil...I agree with the professional lube tech
Lol sound effects were a little off😂
I heard ASE stood for “ask someone else” Jk it’s an old mechanic joke.
It is good that everyone in the shop gets experience in doing a wide variety of jobs. It makes the whole crew multi-dimensional. It should take some pressure off of Matt and Lizzy and Tom. You guys always seem to make things interesting. Which will continue to delight the fans.
67 is my favorite year for GM trucks!!!
Last year for the small rear window...
"that's welding" - damn, Ed, you're a legend!
ya i hate people that are 1 dimensional. stupid dots
Jamie sure did a good job of hiding her enthusiasm about the new parade truck…..
Lol you know Matts gotta have 10 other "parade trucks" sitting in his lot 😂 That poor woman probably just wants to go on vacation and spend some 1 on 1 time with Matt
Renovating a beautiful old truck like that could generate a lot views and new subscribers. Speaking of which, is Rory ever going to make a start on Robby's wrecker build?
@@b52goats "What do you mean you want to go on a vacation? We just had one! Picking up that Corvair and driving it home! Just the two of us!!"
I noticed the SAME thing..... It's just like me and my wife looking at " cool old junk"😅
Priceless!!!
Chalupa Batman-I don’t remember if Matt has any daughters, but she could take a cue from Michele Cox and do the “Girl’s Vacation” option. Leave Matt sweating and grimy from doing off-road recoverys while she hangs out at the beach.
Jefe: "That's not even good for a farmer's weld!"
Ed: "That's welding?"
Pffffffhahahaha, you guys are brutal! 😂😂😁😁
Time for a new Ed T-shirt. "That's Welding?" Great to see Ed up and around.
agree
Love it!
Tom has the amazing ability to explain how a throttle body works in terms that a layman can understand :)
It's all in the sound effects 😁 Expertly done!
more airflow...done
Tom's description on how throttle bodies work was the best explanation I have ever seen or heard!
we replaced Matt's regular throttle body with Folger's crystals. Let's see if he notices!
Matt is smiling when he punched it. That tells a lot.
Awesome to see the repair/upgrade projects getting handled. The trailer winch really looks the business now. Plus the skills building for the "C" crew is good. Those guys have such great attitudes about not being good at stuff but getting in there, having a laugh, and learning.

Peanut riding on the forklift is hilarious. I guess she's hoping they're going on a rescue 😂
She just loves being on things. Seeing her jump on that chair got a good laugh out of me

A healthy dose of "you broke it so you fix it" also encourages more respect for the equipment.

Now if they would only get on the Bombi while they have good weather and hopefully time for it.
Gm MORR! Colby and Jake are great additions to the team. Glad to have em on board.
Do you mean good MORR-ning?
@@timothylumbrix5881 Damn! Why didn't I think of that?! 🤦♂️😂
A new cab for those giant axles that just came in? Can't wait for Wrecker-v2!
Ok it's good to see Jake and Colby stepping up and learning to weld. Matt needs these guys. Tom put a bigger throttle body on the Banana that should help and they repaired the trailer. Looks like Matt has a new project coming up.
New project is a 67 to 72 Chevy cab. Is it a wrecker?
A truck?
Rollback?

Thats what i have waiting for, and lizzys ride too.
Take that old Stdabaker truck and make a wicked off road rollback so you don’t need to take a trailer.
I can't wait to see what y'all build with those huge axles! The WLOW build was awesome and it has lived up to expectation.
That looks like a lot of condos going up around the shop. It's amazing how many people are moving to different places around the country.
Yea that's not good, condo dwellers do not like the noise from industrial shop garages and people road testing mods.

Toms explanation of how throttle bodies works couldn’t have made more sense! Perfect!
Sometimes you can turn the trailer on its side for repairs and easy access,
Mattman likes to keep everyone working hard.😊
If the Banana could speak: "MORE POWER BABY"
Fitting after the Donut colab :D
The Banana does sound more “Snapper” Also, Tom Tom crushed mechanical operations demo. Thank you Matt 💛 & A Team.

A larger TB normally effects bottom end and mid range more than top end. Depending on how smart the ECM is it can take several drive cycles for the ECM to optimize the new MAF/TPS numbers.
Welding is all about understanding the settings and proper consumables. Also, good prep work is handy. Looking good.

Dave Sparks has that record.
Matt's full throttle grin says it all😂!
"Can't wait to show it to you" dissapear... Touchè hahaha

Well I'm no welder but it looked ok like it will work . Can't wait to see the new project .
Don't forget to install a dual battery isolator and add the power wire to the trailer plug so the tow vehicle charging system can keep the trailer winch battery charged.
When Matt punched it, it downshifed, and his smile told the whole story.
Jake and Colby are brilliant! So positive and entertaining. MORR of this 😊
I love the dogs! I have a border collie too. I love the breed. Awesome dogs
Looks like it's new project season, wonder if the snowcat will get any love this year.
That sucking vacuum sound is what I hear every time I start one of these videos. Damn. A few new welders. Must be the end of Lizzy too.
A nuclear certified welder once told me the only difference between a good weld and a great weld is a grinder and a coat of paint.
Wasn't from a certified nuclear welder, just another certified welder like myself, but have heard that numerous times over the years
I've heard that expressed as "A grinder and paint make me the welder I ain't"
Can’t wait to see what the ‘67-‘72 you are driving at the end is!
Now that you did the throttle body the Banana really should be put onto a dyno and actually tuned.
12:14 C'mon Pawficer Peanut, parkour isn't safe. You're the resident OSHA* officer, you should know better.
*Official Staff Herding Apparatus
Ah yes, vertical overhead welding. Took me a few tries to pass that test in school.
Matt's got that smile, now he wants to spend more money. Two weeks ago he was thinking about retiring her...
Some really good editing and video work particularly the welding . Thanks for sharing
Tom is amazing, may he stay forever!!
Its beyond obvious that a message is being sent to Lizzy with all the bad welding going on !!!
Everyone misses her , goes without saying anything
Great... now Matt's gonna run out of gas even faster! 🤣
That's crazy you guys only welded a cpl day congrats keep it up and good to see you guys on the channel more 👍
NEW GUYS DO REALLY GOOD ON CAMERA, TOM TOM YOU ARE A GREAT ADDITION TO THE CREW
It’s cool Jake is getting more screen time. Keep it up bud! 👍🏻
Good to see the 'cross training ' happening...makes the business as a whole much better.
Gorgeous Studebaker truck!
Love seeing Ed on video again, even for a short time. This was a wonderful video . Thank you for sharing!
Good job guys, trailer fixed up and a new throttle body - no more flat spots.
Perfect sound effects demonstrating how the throttle body works
For my entire life I've battled to get my head around how throttle bodies work. I'm glad to say I now understand them perfectly. Thanks Tom!
Nice! Seeing the Studebaker I just thought that I'm in for more MORR classic restos.
I welded Cable to mine. Because I'm awesome at forgetting to either put them back or not locking them in. Now they just drag behind if I forget.
gotta love this interaction between Jefe, Jake, Coby and Tomtom
Is anyone else thinking that the cab of the truck at the end could be cool for a off road flatbed build with the new axles !!
Really fun episode chaps. Enjoyed that a lot.
Are we seeing the beginning of the WLORRB Worlds Largest Off Road Roll Back with that old truck? It would be so much better than a trailer. It wouldn't be good for all jobs but a good portion would become super easy!
I didn’t expect a noticeable difference from the new tb but I didn’t realize or forgot it had a 4.7 stroker so I can see using a larger tb now.
Speaking of that, Matt said the banana is faster than the Morrvair....I don't see how that's possible?
Doesn't the Morrvair have a bigger corvette-built motor with a supercharger?
The jeep just has a pos tiny jeep v8.
Sorry I'm biased, Jeeps suck lol.
Toyota all day every day if you want real quality and reliability.
Another 11% upgrade. Sooo, the Banana performs at 1111% now. Weld done! 😆
That steering wheel alignment would drive me nuts 🤪
That's a nice explanation about the Throttle body.
Here we go Sunday
I think this big ol' 6 is gonna love that bigger throttle body.
“Dirt road into a hiking trail”😂😂😂
Add a simple 2-5a solar charger on the trailer. It should be enough to never worry about charging it again.
Also I would love it if there was a workbench sized "Sally".
This is the most supportive work environment I’ve ever seen.
Come to the hospital I work at and checkout the orthopedic surgical team I work with. We use a lot of tools you would find familiar. Except we don’t weld.😁
You need to “dyno” that bad boy! When AMC brought this engine out they were able to get over 300 HP out of this motor experimentally. They brought it out in pretty mild tune. I had one in my 1987 XJ and it was a good motor. It was much better than my 1984 Chevy supplied V-6.
