Born and raised in Florida, and one thing I learned right off the bat was if you're going to be offroading a good winch is a must or you will end up walking. lol.
And you can't count on trees, bring a land anchor lol
Or have friends with bigger badder vehicles
I have lost faith in wenches helping when I got stuck. They never want to get out of the truck to help, something about not wanting to get muddy?
I'm new to this channel and I how you explain your set up to winch out vehicles is a great positive for me. I'm form the UK work in woodland as my job and sometimes winching is the only option and its not all good fun. It can be tiring wet and cold and very time consuming. Good channel keep up the explanation of your winch set ups.👍 Take care and be safe.
This is down the road from my house. We ride fourwheelers out there. If there is water in the ditches better be ready in the trails and have a truck well equipped with a winch that works lol. Some of these holes go from 2ft-6ft deep! I've walked 10 miles over a similar situation when i was younger😅Now we just ride atvs, sxs out here. Good recovery though man SUBSCRIBED👍!🇺🇲🎄💰
That's what I'm talking about. You shine doing what you do. Still amazes me how good that little jeep does. I mean the winching part is simple. I'm talking about how good it performs off road pulling all of these much bigger trucks out. The winching part is simply knowing how to use your equipt. I run 50 ton tator and do things people can't believe. But I know how to rig and what my equipt can do. Keep it up. Great content.
Great explanations and thank you for sharing.
Unbelievable. Anyone who has ever rode sxs's or atvs in Osceola knows that you wouldn't take an F250 on those trails. There are trails out there where the bottom drops out and has four foot holes. Expensive lesson.
Had a friend years ago that woke up one fine morning after a bender in the bed of his truck. He had figured he was too drunk to drive so he had his equally drunk friend drive. The friend went wheeling after he passed out. Well they were parked in the middle of the Puyallup River in about 5 feet of water. They walked out, called me to bring the winch. I pulled them out and he was so pissed he fired it up and drove it home. Tranny, transfer case, both axles full of water. The real kicker was the great big muddy foot prints caving in the hood and the 1500 dollar ticket for "Parking a motorized vehicle in a salmon spawning stream" that the Fish Ranger left on the dash.
🤣
😂😂😂
Nice work! I'll have to remember you guys for when we are down in Florida. We got stuck down there this past summer briefly with our camper. Fortunately, we had enough recovery gear and our winch got us out! I own Arkansas Off-Road Recovery as well so always cool to see how things are done and learn from others.
What part of Arkansas y’all from
Would have never expected this behavior from someone with those classy taillights
The F-250’s and larger are in my opinion just too heavy for off roading in wet muddy conditions
That gladiator blows my mind.
I'm over by Live Oak, well actually Dowling Park but nobody ever heard of there. It sure did rain cats and dogs this weekend. Nice job getting him out.
It rains cats and dogs all the time in Fla. Used to visit my Grandmother in Orlando in the Summer, you could set a clock as to when it would pour down.
Reminds me of the days we use to head into badluck prairie and see people get stuck in the swamp mud!! GOOD OLD DAYS🤘🤘 Just a shout out from a Naples boy.
🤘🏻🤟
Rip badluck
Man your jeep takes a beating doing this work!
great video thanks for sharing
Makes me want my 1977 international scout 2 back it never made me walk out of the woods.
I enjoy different recoverys.
I live in the panhandle And this is why I keep my trucks jacked up!! Deep water, Keep it out if the engine bay if possible.
Hey Matt !! Don't think he will go 4 wheeling again with that ""FORD"" !!! HAHA 🤔🙄😵 Have good ""HOLIDAYS"" & Thanks again for the videos !! 👍👍👍👍👍
Nice work
Grew up in Jax and used to go 4wheelin in my buddies 84 Jeep CJ7. Warn winch and some serious Mickey Thompson mud tires. Only got really stuck once. Wish we could have called you in 1988.
Did I see street tires on the Ford? Every ford seems to throw shafts and axles.. I've seen this all over, in a range of conditions. Anyone out there know why this happens?
It amazes me that I see so many of the HD trucks stuck in the woods…. Why do people think it’s a good idea to bring an HD diesel into such a predicament…. Even when I owned an HD truck I rarely took it deep off roads due to all the weight.. lighter is better…. Buy a side by side or a midsized truck such as the ZR2 or Gladiator… Big trucks are not going to “power through” the muck like ya think….. I love my ZR2, can go pretty much anywhere where I need to be… On a side note, love this channel and the work that you do. I live in Ocala and may run into you guys one day. Keep up the great work!
we played in ocala alot even had dennis anderson from grave digger in the swamp one time , the good old days
Your going to need more than a boat with this
Your the MAN! have you added any engine enhancements to give you more power?
No, just exhaust gearing and axles
100 ft snatch rope and my old 1964 , I been all over florida back in the day.
Great recovery, you need some good hip waders! ; )
Definitely during the cold months at least
Florida sun has baked all there minds.
Awesome! 👏👏👏👏
Thank you! Cheers!
@@OffRoadRecoveryLLC 🤜🤛
Matt, have you ever entertained the idea of developing a floatation system for lifting the vehicles, then just floating them out? Could be a money maker!
Diesels should only be used to tow your toys out so you can have fun in your toys. They’re just to expensive to go muddying in
I just want to say hey to that dude who's telling that Ford pickup hours Jeep he made the impossible possible that's one intelligence smart son of a gun I bet he's one of the best recovery guys out there
what??
Your should start including what the cost was for the recovery and maybe a little of why the total charge.
its all about the tires good tires that self clean you can go most places
Who would have thunk that street tires would have made it that far in.
It has already been argued in the comments. I will say this I do not think "stock" diesels can spin up fast enough for serious off roading in mud or sand. My little Taco 4x4 has gone places F350's could not. I have a stock drive train and 33's. Just my opinion.
I have a 6.7 power stroke with 38s’ I’ve never been Stuck my turbos are stock and my motor is stock she picks up good and doesn’t give a hint of fatigue
Weight for plays a factor also. Many many other factors
Plus diesel rigs weigh more and that doesn't help.
No slight against diesels.... I would love to own a a unicorn Ford or Chevy 4x4 F250 or 2500. It comes down to weight and length (which I did not mention) for getting into and out of places. My v6 stock Taco makes 190hp... I wish I could swap it with a more modern 3.5L ( I think 305 HP). Either way brother if you run across a old '96 white Taco stuck in the mud... pull me out!@@user-zp3le3pe8g
Diesel has torque. Don't need to piss rev them like a gasser! 😉 Weight is a major factor in diesel engines. Built more robust VS a gasser.
ah swamp. perfect.
Just curious. What have you done to your jeep. Lift ,tires, battery power to run winches . What engine. What about did you need to beef up the fram to move the heavy stuff?
Jeep build breakdown of MODS kzhead.info/sun/mrF6pd6yeHqggac/bejne.html
I had a 7.3 for a long time,2wd... I kearned real quick a 7400 pound truck can literally get stuck just looking at mud and sand...
🎉🎉🎉
Great job, hunter. You just fkd your trans, transfer case and diffs if you don’t drain, flush and refill immediately 🤯🤦🏻😬
They turned it into their insurance
@@OffRoadRecoveryLLC that was a wise decision
Stuck in muck you have to put constant tension and not snatch pull slow and release suction is the only way
Cats think them big ass 4 door diesels gonna go through that shit. To damn heavy
Does anything left on that ford work? Talk about coming apart under pressure. It will take a donor truck just to get it back going.
Impressive jeep ! 3.6l gears tires and wrench?
Tires gears lockers axles and winch
do you get water in diffs or transfer case very often
We don’t
I'm amazed that out of 6 vehicles, no one had a winch. And the stuck truck has street tires on it.
Haven’t you heard Winches are a waste of money A strap and a ball hitch are the way of the professionals
Jump Start, though water in the oil
One look at that truck owner checking his water AND oil mixture with his cigarette and I knew EXACTLY why he was the owner of that truck!!!!!!☝️🤣🤣🤣! Completely explains itself without comment!!!!☝️🤣🤣🤣
Nice work. What are they hunting out there?
Deer 🦌
Ok what’s the set up on your vehicle I need that for my hunting truck
6” lift High clearance fenders 40” Mickey Thompsons 5.38 gears Chromoly rear axle shafts RCV performance Front shafts Heavy duty front drive shaft
you must be getting alot of calls from the rain we have been getting in north FL
Yes we have lots of people stuck in back yards actually
@@OffRoadRecoveryLLC wow people not offroading after this we have learned from the swamp
Delivery vans Grandma trying to go to the store Work trucks picking up the work trailer Ect
Buy a noco... least you would have some power for windows etc.
You should go to matts off road recovery and sign up for off road wrecker games
Who's gonna take over for him?
What size kinetic rope are you using
1” by 10 foot
👍👍👍👍👍
A bunch if people came out here and broke stuff trying to get him out. Hooks up winch pulls him out lol
Winch is a great tool especially if the vehicle is dead and stuck
He must’ve wanted to go hunting pretty bad That place was too wet before we had those last rounds of storms Damn sure wouldn’t be out there without a winch
Osceola a swamp 8-9 months out of the year, we learned that the hard way lol. Need an airboat for that place, I don't see what guys like so much about that place lol. smh
One of the very few places to go most of them Don’t have a choice it’s either there or parking lots
I sank a vehicle deeper than that years ago
Is there no dry ground in Florida?
Certain times of the year - no.
@@Ridesaway24 Florida folks would probably be shocked at what we do in snow.......Or what a blizzard is like
All the more reason to have a dedicated woods/ hunting truck in the woods . Not a heavyweight sreet truck. P.S. Always know when high tide comes ,its Florida man!
No way I would take my F250 out there,like some others said an older Toyota 4x4 is the truck for that.I had a 1982 Toyota with 33’s.I could go anywhere I wanted to with that old truck.
Seems like swampy land there.
What mods are done to your gladiator? Is it stock motor or did you swap a hemi in there?
Motor stock Yukon 5.38 gears Yukon rear shafts Rcv Performance front CV shafts 6” lift Front and rear winches
@@OffRoadRecoveryLLC nice, where in Florida are you? Do you recover in central fl?
We go all over We are based out of Jacksonville And the farther we go the more expensive it is
@@OffRoadRecoveryLLCWhat exhaust are you running? Sounds Good!
How did water get in the oil?
Not 100% sure It did sit valve cover deep for 3 days
@@OffRoadRecoveryLLC Oh, I didn't realize it got that deep.
@@MrMattMohler front was much deeper then the back, and the 2 days before the water level was higher as well
i do think that all diesel pickups should be 4wd but still not sure how much 4wheeling they should do with so much front end weight
you just have to match them with big wide tires so they can float a little better
Big wide tires create more resistance in deep mud though. My full bumper and winch added 300 lbs to the front of my truck which is less than half the weight added from a diesel and even 300 lbs hurt me in deep mud and sand.
@@rockie307 if you air down they float pretty good the only time you want skinny tires is if the ground has a bottom to it. some places there is no bottom you just dig to china
@imchris5000 No substitute for weight and weight distribution though. I understand psi and such but if you add wider tires to offset the pounds per square inch of the lighter rig you just created more rolling resistance in the mud. Diesel engines hurt in the mud wider tires hurt in alot of situations as well its why the wide size tires ain't 3 peak rated for snow and ice they fail the test where the skinny tires pass.
@@rockie307 the added rolling resistance is negated by the fact that diesels have plenty of torque also its entirely area dependent florida does not get much snow. also snow tire rating is more about the traction on ice which is the reverse of everything its a hard bottom situation like I said skinny tires work but only in places with a bottom
What makes anyone think to even try that i own a 350 and there to heavy yes with asphault under it there hard to beat but u would need full tractor tread on a truck that is built to do that sad to see a truck like that junked all for somthing like that if its more then 2 inches i wouldent even try the engine in that truck is as heavy as a small toyota
It's amazing to me all these guys with all these trucks done have a winch and couple of blocks. Just trying to brute force stuff with rope is dumb.
Did he get it running?
Insurance is totaling it
@@OffRoadRecoveryLLC Kinda shocking they would even pay out on it and say no this was on purpose and good luck.
How much do you charge for a recovery? Hopefully you're getting thousands for each recovery.
I don't understand why ppl think it's better to pull with force instead of witching.
Someone who actually knows how to drive in reverse should've been in the f250!! Lol😂
No power steering was the biggest issue here
Driver's side of that truck has a bunch of scratches from dude not centering
👋👋👋
Hey hey 👋
I really enjoy your videos. However in this video the "doing what others can't " i found obstructed the recovery and was distracting. Regardless, thanks for the video and look forward to the next one.
We are playing around with things We agree it’s annoying on screen just like the green logo But there is a reason We currently have several other channels screen recording every single video of ours and zooming in a bit and reposting them Currently one channel pretending to be us and copying all our videos is pushing almost a 100k followers on Facebook 😞
They must be close to where I hunt. We got six inches of rain in one day. I chickened out and walked the last half mile. I don't dog hunt and I'd rather not break my 83 F150 4x4.
Osceola Forrest
@@OffRoadRecoveryLLC Oh. N.E. corner of Ocala National Forest for me. Your Jeep is amazing and your ability to not just drag them when in precarious situations causing more damage is eye opening.
little Jeep rescues big bad ford diesel
I hope he recovered his dogs.
He was with friends and the friends had the dogs
@offroadrecoveryFL😅
Ford has crappy tires too
Wonder how many beers that dude drank to make him decide it was a good idea to drive in there
Matt goes wading, again. Fun to watch but I'm glad it wasn't me.
We usually don’t mind but boy that water was cold 🥶 this time around
Floridian should stop driving their trucks in the swamps 😂
All of Florida is a swamp so that would mean quit driving 😂
Just use the snake swimming around there to tie the strap on
Why don't people buy them airboat for going thru the water and such
Are gators or snakes ever an issue for you guys?
Yes
Golly! At what point do you have to say "enough's enough"? Any further and this guy would need SCUBA gear.
👇You need more than a boat for that you need a Sherpa
I’ll never take my 3500 off road like that He needs to drain all that oil and water and leave his plug off for a couple of days before adding more oil and starting his engine smh
F250s are pretty hard to get stuck. most full sized pickups Its a shame he went a little too far it was a good truck
Ne needs mud tires to go out in wet area`s.
@@davidelkins3229 bro right, anything not mt will lose instantly to mud
Why the hell would anyone drive back in that mess in the first place?
Correct
thats what happens when ya run off in the woods with street tires
That truck wasn’t worth the trouble. It’s totaled .
He needs a sxs
I swear them flordians are the worst drivers. "Your not supposed to park there!"
And then the Toyota on 31s flew right through the same hole.
You know it has to be a FORD...FIX OR REPAIR DAILY..
Why would you drive in to a swamp
Once again street tires and no winch come on guys if you're from Florida you ought to know better I run a 97 f250 HD lockers front and rear winches front and rear with super swampers not saying I ain't never been stuck but at least I can get my own truck unstuck
