Thanks for the recovery Matt! That’s my ZR2 and I drive the heck out of it. I had the front locker on climbing an optional line when I got humbled by the tie rod! Matt and team did a great recovery and Sand Mountain did a great repair and the truck is back on the road!
Hey no shame in getting stuck, the shame is never going out. These are so often just sitting on city roads and driveways
Love the truck/ZR2! I have a 21' ZR2 Black/Midnight Edition. Took it to Hot Springs ORV Park. Got lost on some #3 trails & it handled it great! Love this truck!
I’d left it alone, that 9mm wrench may have lasted forever! 😂 I do hope you kept it as a souvenir though.
Tierod upgrade available like the new Broncos?
hopefully you kept that old tie rod and wrench for a wall mount.
A 9mm wrench makes a good extension for a 11mm wrench. Therefore improving leverage by 11%.
Psst; "thereby"
@@pantarkan7 Fhhhp; "their buy"
And "odd" sizes are great up here in the Rust Belt for rust encrusted rustiness.
@@UberLummoxPfft; "they're bye".

This is another video that shows why MORR viewers are going to miss Tom. He's smart, witty, and an overall great guy to have on your team. I salute you Tom!
Oh No..is Tom leaving MORR already? If so then how come?
@@royjenkins9681 He is growing his own channel, filmed out of his garage.
he's still near Hurricane , & said
he hopes to still work with MORR
on projects & recoveries . I'd
assume it will be a lot less
frequently , though.
Tom seemed to be a smart and personable guy who is in short supply at MORR
From the in cab camera, you can see the wrecker loves his job. He’s always smiling! Can you see the smile?
That welder is going to need an autocharging dock. Otherwise it will often be dead. I've seen how they treat trailer batteries and gas tanks.
Good point lol
Just like the gasoline
9mm wrench are for stripped 10mm nuts
lol 😂❤
This is gold😂
This is so true 👍
And for stripping a 3/8" bolt....😅
hammer on and tack weld, gets 10mm`s off lol
Wow. That wire feeder is quite the nifty new toy. I am going to miss seeing Tom around on the regular though.
"This looks like something I'm going to have trouble putting away" Truer words have never been spoken! I feel the same way with stuff like that .
Absolutely right about the 9mm. I would much prefer if they just gave you three 10mm in each set instead
little known fact, 10mm wrenches go on a diet and hide as a 9mm in your toolbox.
45acp or nothing. God cal
@@findpeac3😂😂😂
Hazard freight sells a kit of 10 10mm sockets and as soon as I saw them I grabbed them
@@findpeac3 You are who I don't want as protection in the woods.. .45cal🤣🤣🤣... You do understand a misquote penetrate a bears hide deeper than a .45cal, right?
.357 / 10mm. / .44 mag / 45-70 / .500 S&W is the flavors you should choose from!
We're really gonna miss Tom on this channel.
I hope he winds up being a frequent collaborator but like more on his time table and doing things the tom Tom way.
@@zyebormyes very sad, like all the other "gone" people like Trevor, Lizzy and all the others 😢
@@Breenild Lizzy got married and moved away. Just wish happiness for them.
@@Breenild
Have you ever changed jobs?
@@Breenild how about Tucker
Goodness. You spoke an absolute on the internet! OK: 6.5mm is a loose 1/4" (something like 6 thou over). 20mm is a loose 25/32" (many antique cars use this size fasteners). 9mm is about a third of an inch and therefore a loose 1BA in Whitworth - perfect for those proper British cars (keep your upper lip stiff).
@maxironpaw, Really? I never knew that some metric wrenches were almost the same as some SAE wrenches. I never knew that the 10 mm is an oversized 3/8 or 9/16 is close to a 15 mm, etc.
They're both a form of measurement so there is going to be some crossover between the two of them.
"1BA in Whitworth"...?
I have seen 20mm used one time in the wild - on a car from soviet union, on some very oddball nut and bolt combo.
@@andybelcher1767 Yes, sir!
@@Xtroll1738 11mm is 7/16" 13mm is 1/2". 14mm is 9/16". 15mm is 5/8". And so on. Not exact, some interchange better than others, but 9 times out of 10 are just fine.
There is one thing about odd metric size wrenches you might not know in US. Like spaghetti are growing on trees in northern italy and get harvested, we got tool trees that produce all kinds of metric wrenches in continental europe. A lot of those go into export. So, what we do is: we keep the useful sizes like 10mm and put stuff like 9mm, 6,5mm and stuff like that up for shipping abroad because for us that is as close to metric system as we can get.
6,5mm fits small hex bits, so if you need such bit in a very tight space - that how it is done. But this is like 1 in 10000 situation.
As it happened with the keys, the petrol.... Im waiting for the moment they want to use the welder And It's Not Charged 😂
9mm is used on BMW vw audi brake bleeder screws honda dirt bikes and a ton of bicycles use 9mm ford back glass uses the vag clutch pressure plate bolts also I can keep going lol love the use this adds to the list!
5.5 is also used on Ford door panels, back and quarter glass.
Vag clutch you say ? 🤔
Never had a use for 9mm myself (even in a metric country) but good to know they do have a purpose.
I believe the carrier pin bolt on a Ford 8.8 rear end is 9mm
@@gtluke4939 Yeah, just asked my mechanic friends in MI, there is a bunch of stuff, but also its not used often enough where using one in a trail repair would be a bad thing.
Nice to see the Welder in use. I looked at those during Winter 4x4 Jamboree and thought I should buy one, and that would force me to learn how to weld for trail repairs. It doesn't have to be pretty, just functional 😂
How much were they?
Great little portable welder...nice work on those recoveries.
I love that little welder.
Yes first time seeing it what is the name and where can I get one please.
Yes please
Karnage Welder
I agree with the 9mm being less useful in a cars tool set, but I use it a lot in the bicycle fixing world. Those engineers love using the weirdest and most annoying parts 😂 I love your content Matt and team! Been a proud watcher for a few years now and thank you for all the good laughs and the many lessons!!!
I used a 9 mm on a newer Ford once and it wasn't a rounded out 10 or a 3/8ths. Just a messed up bolt - mismanufactured.
Don't get me started on the cycling industry.
You are lucky if you only need a 9mm. Every second thing you touch needs a brand specific special tool that costs a fortune.
I can assemble a whole motorbike with a basic tool kit.
I use the 9mm for adjusting the cable on a mountain bike derailleur
I went to my old bike and found 3 9mm nuts on it. I was pretty sure I'd used that 9 on several of them but it was just 3. My NEWer bike has mostly allen wrench bolts. Sure there's the bigger stuff but I don't see any 20mm on it or the older bike.
This is what I came here to say. Every department store bike with gears has at least one and probably three 9mm nuts. Silly bikes.
Great video!! I've seen the wrecker in all kinds of situations and it still surprises me. It truly is a beast!! You guys all did an amazing job designing and building it to do exactly what you need it to do!!!
Thank you Matt and crew for the adventure , seeing some beautiful scenery and nice recoveries !
The wrecker just proved itself again. Love that beast!!!!!!!
So glad to see Tom knew he couldn't hole up in a garage all day yup needs his occasional input thank you Matt for showing us how to utilize whst we have ❤ 😊
the wrecker is formiddable in all terrain, love seeing how it makes most jobs seem easy, thanks for sharing
I have one of those welders its great, not only in case you need it but for fixing that fence in the back 40. It stays in my JK but ready for duty anywhere. (not sponsored)
Appreciate the support!
Yup...in the Fire Dept. Bizz they told us never "dry steer" it especially on pavement cuz you can pop lug nut off. Keep up with the great words of wisdom Matt.
I was waiting for someone to mention "Dry steer". I've had so many people ask me what that is when they are cranking the wheel back and forth in a trader joes parking lot. lol.
"A lotta people will turn and steer while they are on their brakes...man that is hard on stuff..." Sigh. My wife backs out of the garage full lock right, stops, then turns the wheel full lock left on asphalt to leave. Makes my bones shiver.
Even when I'm not driving my own vehicle, I always move forward or backward while turning a steering wheel
those of us who learned to drive without power-steering!!
Does she leave little circles when the asphalt is hot? I'd take her keys away. (I'd take *her* keys away. I'm not crazy enough to take my wife's keys away.)
@@andrewausterfield6710 and people like me who still drive with no power steering
@@andrewausterfield6710 Back in the late 60s when I was learning to drive, I got a chance to drive a 1960, 5 ton Ford dump truck without p/s on a jobsite. I was driving through a plowed field and the owner was in the passenger seat snickering, I didn't know why and asked him, he didn't say anything. When we got to a part of the field where the furrows were deep, almost right away the steering wheel just rotated wildly, that's the reason he was snickering. I had my thumbs between the spokes on the steering wheel and when it jerk, It almost broke both of my thumbs. Moral of the story, never have your thumbs between the spokes of anything that does not have power steering.
Man, when you said you were going to use the 9mm on it, I thought you had given up and were going to unload a clip, and put it out of its misery. Honestly, adds new meaning to "wrenching on the 4 wheeler".
Great job guys. Thank you 😊
"Well know if he breaks, he'll either stop quickly or head off the road" 🤣 🤣
😅
One of the best lessons taught from my youth was never turn the steering wheel unless moving, 😊.
If you've ever driven a car that didn't have power steering (and back in the day, a lot of small cars didn't), it just got to be a habit. These days, even the smallest cars have power steering, and it's easy to forget.
As the other guy said. Without power steering it feels abusive to turn the wheel.
@@user-bx5bh6yn1i It's easier to turn a vehicle with manual steering than it is to steer a vehicle with broken power steering, as you're now fighting the hydraulic steering as well as the road.
@@kade115 Not by too much, and doesnt change the point. Driving a car with manual steering makes you understand just how hard it is to turn the tires when sitting stationary on the brakes.
@@user-bx5bh6yn1i. Back in the day even the large cars didn’t have power steering. I learned to drive with a 1953 Plymouth Belvedere without power steering. And I was a 15 year old skinny kid.
I broke a tye rod on my 94 chevy one time with my offroad club, the guys used a metric Cresent wrench (because those are useless also) welded it to my tye rod end, and bolted the wrench to the knuckle through the hole in the handle of the Cresent.
We used a pair of jumper cables with a stinger on one cable, and two truck batteries.
I drove it back to pavement and then used that tye rod wrench combo to move the parts truck a few months later
The wrecker in it's element, doing what it was built for, love it!!
Matt,tell us more about the portable welder 👍
I live in a metric country, 43 engineer, I have use wrenches as far as I remember and this is the best use I saw for a 9mm.. I HAVE NEVER encounter a situation where 9mm was the right one... so maybe this or grinding it down to 10mm, bc that one ALWAYS get lost..
Mercedes uses 9mm.
@@CarswithNash and I seem to recall an old Alfa Spider sump had something odd like 9mm A/F nuts?
Chinese moped/atv. Occasionally have 9mm nuts The one I'm curious about is the 16mm socket. GM fuel fittings in 90s used 16mm wrench but I've never seen a place for 16mm socket.
My V40 Volvo has 9mm bleed nipples. It's really a Mitsubishi... So I guess some jap cars use them as well.
@@Sonos45 Spark plugs is 16mm. So are some of the bolts on my Volvo. Like seat belt bolts.
I own a 9mm pistol, and it's quite useful.
I was glad to see the in route footage with the background music. You used to do that more. I like it for the views of the scenery. 👍 And you do good work too 😁.
That needs to be a shirt. "It's hot but I kinda like it!" - Tom Tom, with the welder he's using underneath it 😂
Tom is gone started his own thing you want that shirt look him up and tell him 😎
I thought I was the only one I have three 9 mm and have never ever used. I'm 55. I'm taking them out of my tools and putting something else in it's place maybe a 10 so I have a extra. That's one that get used. Cool little welder. Nice to see the crew together.
Good luck with the new ventures Tom❤
Absolutely love watching a videos makes me work on my jeep just wish I knew how to fix it I'm stuck not knowing what's wrong
7:04 i know what you are saying Matt but if you lived in a complete metric world, there are lots of 9mm and 20mm bolts. Especially if you include commercial machinery and electrical stuff, and sometimes LPG stuff too.
You can go through any tool set, and the best condition sockets and wrenches which are pretty much guaranteed to not be missing is the 9mm, the 16mm, and the 20mm.
You'll buy a metric set, and they will include the 9mm and the 16mm, but omit the 14mm or something stupid like that. Whoever decides what goes into these tool sets need to seriously get their head examined.
GREAT trail repair and recovery.
Nice camera work new guy.
Another great video Matt. I always come away from them feeling better about life which is so refreshing given the propensity of CZcamsrs to spin events in a confrontational and often hateful way as a substitute for worthwhile content. Keep up the good work.
Matt killed all kaulin's cool factor when he told him " I'm driving the wrecker" ....😅😅
LOL, you could see the riz leaking from his facial expression.
😂
Awesome!! It is so cool to see the WRECKER power through situations and even surprise MATT! Go TEAM MORR!!
Matt and crew members, love the videos. Super job on both recoveries. Keep them coming and have a wonderful weekend. David B.,Utah. ❤❤❤🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸.
Fan from Australia, love the youtube videos, family and staff are all friendly. Ever thought of showing what happens to some of the vehicles you rescue, repairs etc. Have a great Day
Karnage Welder for the win!
9 mm on some 80s Fords, Crown Vic corner lenses, bicycles use them as do many brake bleeder valves, it can substitute for the 8-32 Vex EDR wrench in robotics. Some battery hold downs also need a 9 mm. They probably should be 10 but only the 9 fits. I believe my son's old Honda motorcycle has some 9 mm bolts. Just because cars and trucks don't use them isn't enough reason to eliminate them as there are a lot of other industries out there that use them including those from other countries. A 19 mm lug nut with those dumb caps that expand with rust take a 20 mm socket well. I have a 33 mm and a 36 mm socket that aren't used every day but every once in a while they are. I can't remember the last time I used ignition wrenches but they are in my tool box.
Good luck on your future endeavors Tom.
I love watching you be responsible
Karnage welders are awesome. I used one a few years ago in south dakota to weld up my exhaust, otherwise it would have ruined the trip
Always great to hear success stories!
I use a 20mm damn near every day.. semi tech life..
I’m gonna need some proof here. Lol
Thanks for watching!
As well 90's 2000's Chevy frame inline fuel filter, dodge power steering hoses at the gear box, ECT.
Thanks for sharing 😀👍
It's crazy how the wracker is still surprising even matt and the crew in its capabilities of what it can do and handle❤❤
Karnage welder is the real deal. We have one on our yearly trip. Have saved many tow outs.
Glad to hear it! Thanks for the support!
I am pleased to hear Tom doesn't have lice
Nice welder. It had plenty of heat for no bigger than the battery can be.
Matt and his rant. I love it
I enjoy your crew and all the antics and commentary. You're always going to get them out, and that attitude ROCKS‼️
Tom's welding mask is still set to Eclipse mode 😂
I really like the rant about the 6.5mm fastener size, yet lack of 9mm - also 5.5 mm on my Dad's Mercury... some mysteries just defy understanding!? Thanks Matt - and we'll sure miss Tom on the channel - but I wish him well!
Lovin the new welder !
Did you ever notice that the view out of the windshield shows a happy-faced tow-truck? The shock towers are the eyes, the center hood hinge is the nose, and the cowl vent is the smile. Just thought everyone should see this. Matt, you made the ol' truck happy again by putting it back to work!
It would make for a good bill peet style drawing. Look up Jennifer and Josphine, Smokey, or The Caboose who got Loose.
I can't help but think "HIS" Name Should be HARVEY!! After all He Is A International Harvester.... H A R V E Y 😊❤️

Keep it up!

Find yourself a business where you can romp around in your work vehicles and it's STILL a write-off! yessir, Matt and team.
It looks like that welder may be a great asset for you. When Peanut is in the "weather seat," she needs to do a running report. Your editing crew can probably figure out how to do that. Just give them extra popcorn for motivation.
I been watching y'all for a few years now and some of the old wrecker tools are a necessity. With that said "The Worlds Largest Off Road Wrecker" when towing could really use a pintle hitch on the back that a pipe that's adjustable with a spring in line on it or possibly a shock absorber off of a bumper that could be fastened to the vehicle and hook up on the pintle hitch on the back of the wrecker would be ideal for some of your recoveries. JMO
I love my Karnage welder. It does a lot around the farm too
Good to hear!
The dogs need some MORR gear since they usually meet the customers first. They are part of the team too❤😊
Matt's going to have a hard time replacing Tom Tom that's some big shoes to fill
Tom Tom is going to have a harder time on his own.
@@whatnow5313 Tom Tom well do just fine
They both are the dynamic duo, I feel they both deserve credit also s/o to the team. without Tom or Matt we couldn’t have gotten to where we are today.
Matt trains up CZcamsrs to then go start their own channel and make bank. I'd make them sign a contract saying they can't start their own channel for 5 years. Those are trade secrets.
@@CoolhansoloI have a feeling it’s with Matt’s blessing. It began with his son.
Matt and his team gotem out and the big wrecker is doing amazing work!
Testing is responsible. Gotta put things a a bad place when you’re expecting it so you know how to react when it’s a surprise.
That wrecker is dialed in!!! A beast!!!
Matt, there are 4.5, 5.5 and 6.5mm nuts and bolts out there! Mostly in electronic components and RC stuff. 🙂
The first time I needed a 5.5 was in the late seventies. My buddy had a Ford product and his ignition module had taken a poop. You absolutely had to have a 5.5 mm socket or you could not remove that module. That wasn't the first time I felt like a hostage to the snap-on man, but it was one of those aha moments.... There have been many since.
Yep. An M3 nut is 5.5mm. Lots of those on rc cars. Used one last week on my SCX10 Honcho. That 5.5mm box wrench is much handier than holding nuts with pliers.
So that's what the 9mm is for then, to turn 2 4,5mm bolts at the same time !
Only because a lot of those fasteners are secretly inch sizes that have been "metrified". If you look at ISO engineering standards they're supposed to be standard metric mm size. Only M3 is weird in being 5.5mm. But for most consumer products imho as an engineer if you're using M3 nuts you're doing something wrong anyway
@@danwilcox7650 And a 7/32 wouldn't do it? They're literally like within a couple thousandths of each other.
🤣🤣 .... responsible and then the cut... great! I love that point of view!!
Great job on both recovers nice to see Tom Tom too.
cool welder for off road
‘If they can’t handle getting the heck beat out of em I don’t want em workin for me.’
Also applies to his mechanics.
is that why to is leaving?😂

@@geraldteelajr957 Tom has his own channel now !
Matt these vehicles belong to you and/ or your business and if you want to beat the crap outta everyone of these vehicles you do so ! Not to mention you and the crew are the ones that maintain these vehicles so keep on keeping on !!!! Thanx for the great entertainment!!!!
Off road games were very fun too watch ,that welder I've never seen before thanks for sharing,And I've never thought about 9 mm wrench but I do know every tool set is missing 10mm lol
That welder is pretty cool It would have been nice if you had said how much power was left when you were done.
🔥🔥🔥
Just great videos on this channel. Every. Time. Thank you!
Looks like an awesome place to fly a paramotor, such a beautiful view !
That little welder is sweet!
Karnage Welder
But Matt my Great Grandfathers 1905 Stutz Bearcat has a 9mm fuel bracket bolt and he lost both legs and a thumb in WWI cause he forgot to duck and I need that wrench to continue his legacy.
Love it when they get surprised by their own wrecker
Those Carhartt seat covers are sweet! I have a friend that made bucket seat covers out of old bibs. They went on backwards, so the pockets are on the back of the seat for some storage.
Have a selection of small pipes to put over the tie rod , note: slide on before you weld together then weld in place, have holes predrilled in pipe for button welds
Trucks good to go. Just needs an alignment lol.
Finally!! A zr2! Just replaced my dssv suspention in mine, i guess i know whats next
I would be honored to have tomtom reinforce my tie rod with a 9mm
It’s pretty cool that the wrecker still surprises you with how Awesome it is.
Colin wearing a RAD shirt, awesome!
6.5mm is the metric spanner (wrench) for a 1/4in AF head. 9mm is the spanner for M5 nuts/bolts
1/4" is 6.35mm...
As a mechanic, I use 20mm a lot. Agree about the 9mm. Never seen the 6.5, but occasionally use the 5.5mm. Engineers are responsible for all the confusion 😅
Mercedes uses 9mm, 90's GM trucks used 6.5 on the bumper fillers and Ford used 5.5, Not sure if they still do the newest I have noticed it was a 2003 Taurus, it started in the 80's I know.
I have a set of metric no name spanners in a drawer next to me that goes from 4mm to 11mm including some half sizes. I don't know where it came from or what it's for, but I'm keeping it just in case ! I suppose they must have made metric magnetos ?
3mm nuts is 5.5mm. Used a lot on rc cars. So is the 7mm which is M4 nut.
Welcome back Tom !!
That sand reminds me of the texture and color of this this orange powder coating we used for some gym company's equipment. However, it doesn't seem to bother the wrecker. That big footprint and the power to move it around. Good stuff.
