@aduckinthereeds Год назад

For your air line issue, switch to Camozzi brand fittings. They're made of metal and designed to handle the heat plus they'll work with the air line you're currently using. We use them on production MIG welding machines, which is a very nasty environment and usually run them 24 hours a day.

@deathshank1937 Год назад

Sounds like the ones on our robots at work. We cast aluminum car parts at 1200 degrees. The extraction robot has held up so much better with the metal fitting compared to the plastic ones. Even with a burn sleeve on the lines the plastic ones would not hold up. Metal fitting with a metal lock was night and day difference from the plastic with plastic lock.

@4x406Offroad Год назад

I have 4 traction boards on my rig, I do think they’re worth carrying. In addition to leveling my truck for the roof tent, and use as a base for my hi lift, They’ve saved me a lot of digging when snow wheeling, and that’s when I find I use them most, but I’ve also used them as ramps to get up rock steps or to bridge gaps in the bigger rocks, cause I’m still on small tires with bad approach and departure angles. I find them to be a useful tool with some creativity. This winter I intend to try digging a deadman anchor in the snow with them and some rebar stakes, see if the snow can take the shear load of a winch pull. If so, all the more reason to carry them to me. I can see why y’all don’t really mess around with them, but I will continue to.

@SilasSKnott Год назад

Mechanic and engineering student here. Never posted to your comments before but have watched almost religiously and really appreciate all of what you guys do. I have a simple solution the the header's heat problems both short and long term, you really should cut and install some ventilation in the top of the hood. I'm sure that if you could see the under hood temps with a thermal gun while it is under heavy load you would see an "air dam" where heat builds up in the back near the top. This would put a lot of heat right into where those locker lines are routed. A vented hood along with wrapping the headers should provide plenty of heat dissipation to prevent further damage to the lines/ other sensitive components under hood. Just some input from a fan with a bit of experience with heat management issues.

@kingcosworth2643 Год назад

What you do to save cutting holes in your sheet metal, is to adjust the rear of your bonnet (hood) up about half an inch when it is in the closed position. This allows fresh, cold air into your engine bay from the windscreen area. But I would do that as a last resort as not to change the aesthetics of the vehicle. First action would be wrapping, next would be ceramic coating and wrapping, third would be all this and stainless heat shields.

@vivalesvegas Год назад

I’ve just posted higher up, but what are your thoughts on cooling fins on the headers? Seeing as they’re open to the elements anyway in Matt’s application, my theory is they may help heat dissipation. May still need a heat shield for the air lines though. My thinking is that I’ve seen some motorcycles that have fins on exhausts manifold to head connections. They’re not very big, and are more like clamps than anything else, but I presume they’re more functional than aesthetic.

@SilasSKnott Год назад

@vivalesvegas We want less heat to come off of the headers. Those fins work well, though I've only ever seen them on air-cooled motorcycles where removing heat from the motor is typically limited by the surface area of said motor. In Matt's case, there is too much heat coming off of the exhaust already, so it would have the opposite effect of what's intended. Ceramic coating and header wrap both prevent as much heat from radiating out of the exhaust, though I still think venting the hood will be necessary long-term.

@ctrl_agent_86 Год назад

Concur. The problem isn't the header temp, the problem is the heat build up at slow speed (insufficient airflow to keep the firewall cool). Fans could help, but will push the wrong direction at high speed and reduce cooling. Either louver the hood as Silas said or add a heat shield that forces the rising hot air out the side. Maybe both. It's a heat buildup problem so I'm not entirely certain the header wrap will help enough, but it's an easy place to start.

@tobiastho9639 Год назад

He solved it that way once before on the banana with the black vents. Yes it's open under and on the side but warm air rises...

@lifelinefabllc Год назад

I get that you guys don't read all the comments but turn your part throttle cruise fueling up. Drop Lamda to about .95 or so. My Bronco had the exact same header temp issues on long slow climbs. Turning fueling up helped immensely. You can also try advancing the timing at thise rpms a couple degrees. Late ignition timing can also cause high header temps.

Like when a fireball goes off in the distance but you feel the heat in your face, the air between you and the ball isn't any hotter perse. A simple physical barrier shield would probably help a ton!

Matt.. You can wrap those headers and put a little metal shield above them and it would be more than enough to cool everything down. Even more extreme, you could rig up a fan on each side -- to blow the heat out of that open fender wells. Also another good upgrade would be to put shut off valves right at all of your four corners--- that way when there's a leak; you can simply pump everything up as it needs to be, and then shut all your valves so that it holds in the pressure at the bags and you can still make it home and fix the leak at the shop, rather than being stuck on the trail.

Agreed. The wrap is inexpensive and VERY effective. So is the heat shield. Summit will have both. I've used both on a 1999 Pajero (MOntero) with an engine swap and headers. No more cooking feet. The other thing to do is to get the headers ceramic coated. Also very effective. Here in Oz, heat is an issue.

Matt, I wish I would have had a set of those bunny boards in August 1980 in Sierras mountains. When I buried the back end of my 1960 CJ5 with small block vette motor on an under ground spring. Locked in the hubs and buried it to further. As I reached down to pop the lid up on the storage under the right sear. When Tall, dark and hairy took to roaring at us. He didn't us tearing around his forrest. We were bird hunting and only had 12ga. bird shot and three guns. My buddy handed me my pump gun and I said let's go. He said F. orget you. It took off up the stand tearing the forest up. I ran parallel to it on the dirt road. It acrossed ahead of me into the next stand. 2 1/2 hours later it caused a flock of doves to burst from a tree at the top of the road where it turned to the right, where it crossed with a boom, boom, crash, crash, crash. During that 2 1/2 hrs I sent rocked to China. Almost out now. Not enough winch cable to double line to a tree. Vietnam Entrenching and a Jack. Yes I would take the bunny boards. Broken right front axle was found later. My buddy never said a word again or during that except F orget you I am not leaving the ammo box and the guns. Cheers Club of No Return !

@mikecliff2367 Год назад

For the air line heat issue, I think your best bet is really heat shields. Small pieces of sheet metal that prevent the header radiant heat from getting to the air lines. Heat shield just need to be a thin piece of sheet metal between the heat source and what your shielding. Of course, with air gap on both sides.

@charvakkarpe Год назад

Or double walled exhaust pipes.

No try fixing the tuning. If that is running too hot, its lean. there is no way that thing should be that hot.

@robsmart239 7 месяцев назад

Ceramic coating, heat shield & wrap. It should make a huge difference

@outdoorsinoregon Год назад

Matt, you may want to try wrapping those air connections with self-fusing silicone tape. That would insulate them from the heat while holding the connections in place and I believe would fix your problem. The tape can be cut off if you need access to the connections, and it would be much cheaper and easier than addressing the exhaust. Once you start using the tape, you'll wonder where it's been all your life.

you can do it with wheat seeds as well. Wheat doesn't really taste like much though so it's a bit more enjoyable.

@shullln Год назад

5:23 Not controversial at all. I used to have a gov job where we had to 4 wheel into the back country on a regular basis. I said it all the time, if you could extricate yourself, you weren't really stuck, you were just inconvenienced. You weren't "stuck" until you had to call for outside assistance (usually after a significant hike! lol).

@kevinanselman Год назад

I would like to send a special shoutout to traction boards for getting me and or friends out of many deep snow drifts. Each time it’s occurred we only had 1 vehicle so getting pulled out was not a viable option and traction boards got us that little bit of traction needed to climb out. I think they are useful enough to keep in the rig at all times for self-rescue situations

@joebriggs8422 Год назад

Matt, getting the headers ceramic coated with a quality motorsport functional coating (inside the pipes as well as outside) (as opposed to cosmetic coating) aids greatly in keeping the heat flowing out the exhaust and reduces radiation of heat into the engine bay.

@jeremiahsmith7977 Год назад

I absolutely love the longer recovery videos it reminds me of the really good older videos like the one with the banana and Rudy and Paul’s wrecker pulling the dead red keep up outta that canyon where Paul’s wrecker boom dented the hood that’s one of my favorite videos!!!!

@chuckvedder1227 Год назад

1. You could have a shop custom build you headers to any shape you want. 2. They make an insulation coating (not referring to heat wrap) that can be applied to headers that keeps most of the the heat in. Headershield. 3. Place some hi-temp insulation board between the hoses/wires and the exhaust. 4. Use some fold-down boat seats for extra people on the back of the wrecker.

@desertrat8322 Год назад

Awesome video !!! As for controlling under hood heat is ceramic coating the header inside and outside . As for keeping wiring and hoses protected by heat they have wire sleeving that will protect up to 1500 degrees Also you need to extract under hood heat by using louvered vents or screens . Doing this will significantly drop under hood heat

@edzinator8499 Год назад

Matt, for the heat of the headers, just get kevlar wraps with the stainless ties. Always use brass quick connects under the hood on air lines, sir.

@scottcummings8074 Год назад

Matt, I agree! I live in the rockies and do not see pavement often. I have been severely delayed, had to use a winch, shovel, chainsaw, traction boards, but I have never been stuck because I went prepared...... unless snowmobiles count. But i had help with me!😂

@jefferyengelhardt5266 Год назад

I have used traction boards many times to help people with two wheel drive vehicles "stuck" on ice with a little snow. A quick pull or push would also get them out, but using those on the drive wheels is a quick and easy way to get those vehicles un"stuck".

@shredz420 Год назад

I think Rhett is my favorite of your kids. Not that all of them are not amazing but he is funny and a dang good driver. And I think Tom is way over qualified for this job but such a perfect fit. I love your videos keep it up guys. I am from Utah too so much love.

@stathisbikos6563 Год назад

Try covering the surrounding surfaces with reflective heat tape. I'm betting some of the heat problems are due to the headers radiating heat rather than the hot air per se. Also, someone already mentioned: you can get all-metal air fittings.

You guys are forgetting about radiant heat off the headers. They need shields, aluminum heat shields all around them. Air gaps and shields are the most efficient way to reduce heat transfer. Wrap won't do much at all. Shields!

How do you define stuck If you have to exit the vehicle to adjust or address a problem stopping your movement This is stuck for some people If you’re movement is stopped forward or backwards this is stuck for most The very adventures take it as a challenge And a test of their skills Stacking rocks Digging a path for a tire Using a jack to place stuff under a tire in a hole Using a come along or a winch by your self is just part of the challenge Only when a third party has to be called in are you officially stuck This is how I define stuck

@AlexiCult Год назад

Traction boards are useful when your vehicle is generally capable of going over the given terrain, but there are a few places where you need to cross a ditch or go over a high rock, or a patch of the surface is too soft and you need traction (hence the name TRACTION boards). If your whole path consists of soft surface (like sand dunes) or rock-crawling, then of course the traction boards are useless, as you won't be constantly putting them under your wheels. You just need a more capable rig then.
