I like how you use your rigging training and math to develop a plan that works safely on the recoveries. Very professional in your approaches and actions. Good camera work as well.
Your problem solving skills and knowledge is off the charts! Well done my friend and I wish you much continued success.
I appreciate that
I like you you explain your rigging for each recovery. Most recovery sites don't bother.
What I've found works well when stuck in mud is to raise the front of the machine as high as possible by pushing down with the bucket fully tilted, then slide in some large fence posts crossways under the raised tracks. Once the bucket is lowered there's usually enough traction to get out. The bucket also needs some posts under it to lift the front of the skidsteer. In this case I would have placed posts under the left hand edge of the bucket, so most of the lift was on the left hand side of the machine.
The explanations of "how" and "why" are great! Keep it up
Hey Matt I have been watching your videos for a little while now. I subscribed a few days ago. I'm amazed at what you do with a jeep and a winch. I have learned a lot. Thank you.
No problem and thank you
Found your channel about 2-3 weeks ago. Have been binge watching all your videos lol. I’m amazed at what you can pull out with a 12k winch and snatch blocks. Awesome content!!
Kudos to the Camera operator, great video! That is the gooiest looking mud....
Matt is an excellent person to pull vehicles and machines out of the mud. He’s uses skills and charts to decide how to pull. Great videos all the time.
Love watching you do these jobs with the right equipment. Never understood why so many people treat snatch blocks like they're a giant hassle to take the extra 5 minutes to rig up.
You are on the verge of redefining an industry standard.
Let’s hope so, no reason these jobs should be quoted out at 2 grand and a Jeep comes and pulls them out
If they quoted 2 grand you could be a hero for 1800. Super hero for 1600
Your videos and content have truly inspired me to continue and double down on my development of an off-road recovery business in my area. Coming from a career in excavation, excellent work on this recovery with no damage to the iron.
Between winning and los8ng. great to see old technics being used. Good old mechanical scotch blocks will anchor even better thansome hydraulic riggers Great job again. Hope your business is growing rapidly. Again your knowledge of rigging is the difference
Imagine buying a house and then later figuring out the groundwater level is 1 inch above the ground. Fail
Developers built a subdivision in a place known as Hidden Lake. Guess what happened when we had a wet rainy season! My grandpa used to fish there some years.
It's against the law in Massachusetts
Psh when he first pulls up it looks like the house is sinking and that’s what he’s there to pull out…
@@keithsuggs7935 guessing the hidden lake came out of hiding?
@@anthonybarton2103 What isn’t against the law in Massachusetts?
Been watching you for a while now. Never made a comment, but you have your stuff straight. You know what to do in a swamp, great show. God bless you and yours.
Thanks 😊
there mistake was not using the brush to build up the ground they were pushing back onto. florida ground is rough its just like cornstarch in many places solid till you jiggle it
Nice detail about centering the winch cable. Enjoying the explanations of how and why you do things. How do you clean your straps and ropes? I'm beginning to get the impression that Florida is nearly 1/4 swampland. Greetings from Australia, it's <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="680">11:20</a> on Saturday morning, and I'm enjoying a good start to the weekend - watching 4wd recovery videos.👍
More like 3/4 And we just use a hose nothing fancy
Wow, that thing was buried! The way it was plowing, I thought it was never going to pop up! Good job!
For some context the John Deere 333g skid loader weighs a little over 12k lbs. With the front of the track under the ground, he's DRAGGING a 12k lb machine THROUGH the ground. Lol
This is a 325g
I love your recovery videos brother! I ran a wrecker and recovery section while in the US Army as well as my own business afterwards! Great job!!
That new winch is great, with the remote you now have full control over the winch out job. Fantastic, Gerald Ingram, Feilding, New Zealand.
Check out Marty T in NZ and Angry Ram.
This is a interesting channel to watch!! ... Better that anything on the TV (I got rid of cable years ago!!) ... It's different than some other off road recovery channels I watch. One thing I like about Florida off road recovery, is it's more similar to my area of Ontario Canada, where people get trucks and equipment REALLY stuck in the mud! :) Another thing I like is it is very realistic, one guy and his wife (sometimes even the kids along) dong a job for PROFIT and charging reasonable prices. It's all real, "Florida" Off Road Recovery never shows up with 6 vehicles and 8 men, to get a vehicle or piece of equipment un-stuck!! :)
What a lovely place to build a house.
You did a excellent job on getting that out way to go
That remote controlled winch is a whole new ball game, it allows you to be in two places at one time You don't have to depend on someone, you now have both ends coved Well worth the investment.
Absolutely, which will make the jobs much easier
you go when others wont't. great job and thanks for sharing your knowledge so freely. i think i need some merch!!
I can't believe that jeep truck can go anywhere! Amazing, good job!
Great vid, thanks for making your channel. It's one I regularly watch.
Glad you enjoy it!
Perfect, textbook stuff. Very well done.
You are very skilled at your craft, enjoyed watching, thanks for sharing. Eric, NH
I'm new to watching your channel. Very good content and very educational. Keep up the good work.
Put a cable through the center of each track. Secure to track with a shackle or rope clip. Secure ends of cables to deadhead or tree. Drive tracked rig up cables. It will lift the rig right up out of the mud. The diameter of a set of tracks makes a huge winch drum.
Started watching cause the JT. Love that btw, but im sticking around for the content. I feel like im learning a lot about safe recovery seriously. Best kinda YT videos
Thanks 😊
I enjoy the content! That Gladiator of yours is a beast! We need a video with specs and mods! (You might have already made one. I haven’t looked…)
Well done my friend and thanks..... Old F-4 2 Shoe🇺🇸
Amazing stuff!
One more snatch block off the tree then all the presure is between the tree and the machine. Plus increasing the pulling strength.
Its not too joke with the mud, but happy ending ...🤝🏻
Years ago my wife decided to do a little work with the tractor. She stuck it. The tractor weights around 5000 pounds. She goes next door and gets her sisters tractor to pull it out. She didn't bring her sister to drive the stuck tractor which only weight 2400 pounds. She gets it stuck with the chain tight now. Then she took my truck out there and again got the chain tight and stuck it also. She finally stopped and waited for me to get home from work. I told her to stay off the tractors from now on. I had hell. I finally got them all out. We had water tables on different parts of the property and we would have to break them up and let them dry up. Today after 25 years we can drive anywhere on the property. A brother inlaw who lives next door still has them with people getting stuck from time to time on his property. I tell him to call a toll truck.
Snatch blocks are our friend's people!
That’s what I been saying
great recovery at first thought you were going at it the wrong way but once i thought about it knew you were correct
What's your opinion? I would have pulled backward. When our skids get stuck, it's always been easier to pull out from the rear if you can get to it.
I'm now watching your channel.last I saw Matt's off road recovery needs more ppl at his off road game sometime in March I think and you'd be a perfect candidate plz consider there's a group of close friends out the in Utah you'd fit in
we keep getting asked but we are super busy, we do 60-80 rescues a month so taking 2 weeks off to go do games leaves our customers stranded
@@OffRoadRecoveryLLC ok your probably right I just thought it would be good for your channel and theirs I do enjoy watching your videos I'm in TN we have no real trails or recovery ppl of your or Matt's caliber
Trees and winches. Golden!
Man you are the real deal!
Good work!!
The equipment rental companies must have you on speed dial.
Kinda Customers call them They say call this guy They text me Sending you a stuck machine let me know if you can get to it thanks We get them out and charge the customer not the rental company But the rental company appreciate us getting them out without any damage or issues And Being affordable that the renter can afford it If they can’t then the rental company has to pay to get them out it’s his machine and he’s not gonna just let it sit there
Do you have a link for purchase of the scotch blocks or a pattern for them?
Nice job! 👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Nice work!!
When you use the bucket like the front end of a Jon boat, you know you are really stuck! 😂
winch wins every time, keep parting the line with a proper anchor you could pull a locomotive out. Well done. 1st time viewer
As usual. Great job.
This jeep is the crowned king.. if it’s not then send a link to the other or the best.. until then all hail!!
When I was ststioned at RTC ORLANDO I saw my first sink hole. We get mine collapses in Aridzona but y'all get Serious Mud!
Could have used your services in the sandbox!
I'm thinking that's where he learned to do that. Most civilians don't have that knowledge.
That was awesome
Nicely done sir
Very impressive for sure, I don't think they will push it backwards next time..
been there, done that... it sucks
Me Too
Rule no. 1, never stop working because of the conditions, props to the stump grinder for knowing this. lol
Block out one "do it yourself" but not the other one. Genius.
Здравствуйте.Отлично работаете! Хотел дать вам совет, вы находитесь на против троса, если он порвётся то может попасть в вас и нанести травму. Мы когда вытаскивали из грязи, снега грузовики то наматывали на трос тяжёлую куртку "fufayka" по-русски это снижает скорость оборванного троса и меньше вероятность получить травмы. Отличный канал у вас смотрю с интересом.
Do you ever stop during a pull for the winch to cool down ?
Another well done rescue. The skid steer tracks appear to be not very aggressive. Or were they work?
Do you use line locks instead of having someone holding the brakes in neutral?
i like this channel because its not clickbait, i watch another that uses some clickbait and unsubscribed from and quit watching one because its mostly clickbait
That a boy Matt good winch work
Thanks
I guess someone will be out with the pressure washer later...
You are awesome dude!
Friend good work 💪 jeep
Get a bigger machine piece of cake, but I would just use block and tackle! Do it all the time!
Would love to work with you guys a show you some tricks,
This guy's good!
Use the bucket to float the front up just pulling the tracks into the ground tip for next time awesome video
Apologize for the last comment Cat skidsteers have eyes on the loader we hooked up straight down pressure on the bucket out she came don’t ever try to pull one out backwards they just dig down amazing job with a jeep hats off to you
I really wonder how they thought the ground was firm enough to use that machine? Just one look should’ve told them it wasn’t.
that rope you use is unreal strong. what is it?
Should have did a rear pull so you can use the bucket to help push the machine along and the tracks wouldnt have went under the mud.
that ground needs a soak-away at the end of the land
Sweet!!!
Nothing sinks like a Deere.
Best WAIT for som sunshine son!
How does one turn that mud hole into dry, firm land?
Most people underestimate how much one of these "little" skid steers weighs. I'm guessing this one is around 15,000 lbs.
Great !
Excellent !! What did you figure the stuck resistance at ? What is the MBS on your Spydura Pro 3/8 winch rope ?
Mbs is if I remember correctly 18,900 We had it doubled up so 37,800 ish
@@OffRoadRecoveryLLC thanx Matt !
@@joeking3339 sorry didn’t see the first half of the question Ok so our base line calculation started at Operating weight 12,100lbs Over the tracks means 200% of weight required But we figured one one side is buried so really you base the calculation off 6,050lbs x 2 So a 12,000lb pull should be enough up to 24,000lbs if both side started getting buried Now this is also with hydraulics released and rolling Not with machine helping So ideally we planned it out as Apply 10,000lbs of winch force Move machine Apply 10k force Move machine Until it was coming out then winch and move together
@@OffRoadRecoveryLLC gotcha ,,, appreciate !!
Something tells me that home might have some water issues
There goes that Florida mud that ppl say is so easy to go threw 😂😂😂 come on down and show us is what I have to say to that
Lol...I already knew how you were gonna get it out before I even clicked on the video......and winch and jeep was not my answer......logical planning and rigging were the first things to come to mind and lofl......calling casey ladelle was my plan b......which is safe because there is no plan b when you do it right the first time lmao
This is the price the pay for liveing in florida
Starke Leistung.
Hi may I ask what kind of Winch do you have on jeep thanks for sharing
Warn Zeon platinum 12-S
Wouldn’t backwards have been a better option in this case.
When you know your stuck stop where are things only get worse when your in a skid loader
Should be pulling from bottom skid steer chassis it better and less leverage.
Matt used the bottom of the bucket as a skid plate to help lift the tracks, so his anchor position was optimal. If he attached to the chassis, he would have been plowing the tracks through the mud.
I would have pulled backwards. Would have been a much easier pull. Track wouldn't dig in and Pulling on bucket pulls the machine down.
“At what point did you think you might have a problem?”
The only thing i dont understand is why you dident wrap the ropes on top of the bucket, so that you could press the bucket down and raise the front of the machine.. 🤔❤️🇸🇪
It’s under the bucket to allow a lift If we had to push the bucket down to lift the tracks Plan was to push the bucket down and let it slide on the bucket if we had to
Wow, holy shit!
What exactly are you blurring
It’s got tracks it won’t get stuck 😂
