Rat Rod Wrecker Goes Back To  

Chad is the real hero behind the scenes of Matt and Paul's wrecker

What a skill set you you have and teaching/mentoring your kids is awesome. Great channel.

Truthfully It Should be Chad's Fab Wrecker Games, The Massive Wrecker of Matt's and Paul's reincarnation of Papa Sherman's RatRod Tow Truck wouldn't even make the Show without the Wiring Magic of You and Your Family

Wiring is such a time consuming and methodical process. Chad is the perfect calm and patient person for the job. I envy this type of patience that I don’t possess 😂

Chad’s voice is so calming and friendly I just can’t see him getting madd or even yelling… only yell I can hear him doing is calling for the dogs to come in lol what a just super nice guy! The entire group from the kids to Momma bear just a nice family! Love the channel ❤

It has been said 1,000’s of times…but there is no better way of saying it…QUALITY WORK! Thanks guys for bringing us along.

As a prank, you should have added an annoying chime for when Paul leaves his key in the ignition.

The dash looks awesome. Also, this "rebuild" seems like such a great way to honor the memory of Paul's dad.

Chad and family working hard to keep the wrecker games on schedule looks like they should get the trophy. wiring is the most confusing thing for most people.

I like hearing your little sayings at the end. I have said it before, all these guys are lucky to have your crew for their electrical needs.

Paul will be so happy with this wrecker/tow truck and Chad and his team have done a great job getting all of the electrical done and working. Bring on the wrecker games!

Wow, I can't believe the amount of work (all top quality work too) that you, family and friends have done on both Paul's and Matt's rigs! Impressive work ethics!

You all do such amazing work. Thanks for sharing.

You guys do awesome work, the level of detail is amazing. Chad you have the patience of a saint. God Bless

Your whole family and family dynamic is amazing. Love everything y'all do. Thanks so much for all the great content.

Quality work by a quality team!

Paul and Matt really know how to pack it in on these wreckers of theirs. Man, not an inch wasted. Can't wait to see them on a call.

Looks like the vast majority of the engines being used in all these projects are Chevy’s with the exception of the Bananas souped up 4.0. Why not just beef up a Suburban or Tahoe, no LS swap necessary? 07- 13’s already have 5 link rear suspensions and coilovers up front.

I'll be hosting a hole saw symposium at my shop soon, highlighting many of the tips, tricks, and methods to guarantee future hole saw success! Chad, you and your family are invited, and I'm extending to Paul, his family, Matt, his family, Robby, his family, Holly, ........................ this could go on for a while and get quite crowded. I love watching you guys! Thank you!

thats gonna be a really Rad Truck! can"t wait to see it in action & all these off road recovery friends work together! very cool Chad is working on all the wreckers. it takes a lot of chill composer& skill to work on all that wiring

I wish Sherm could see his truck!!!! I’m calling it THE SHERMINATOR!!!!

It's truly amazing to see the kid come out of Chad just by the sound of a squeaky wiper all the way back to 8th grade.

Beautiful craftsmanship. Can’t wait to watch your wrecker build. Chassis punches are the way to go to make nice holes in sheet metal.

"We're almost there". The definition of optimism. Love this family.

Just the man hours of work on both wreckers and the man hours of both crews is really impressive but the only way they make it to the games is with Chad's fab and great video and great job with the wrecker and God bless from GA and stay safe 🙏 👍

Hey Chad. You should have put a little bit of water that wiper reservoir and got Kian in the face.👍🏽🤣🙅🏽‍♂️. I won't judge you about the RV get camper. Remember cannot have power with that juice weather some liquid or spark.. good job Sparky.👏🏽🤙🏾✋🏽✌🏽🙏🏽🙋🏽‍♂️😊😎.

"Part Time" had me in stitches. Thanks for taking us along as always.

Respect the pennies and the dollar will follow...tools can't do anything without them..great outcome on Paul's wrecker..

Mr Chad you have nerves of steel, doing all that wiring and not going plumb crazy while at it.🤔😉😃😃😃😅😅😅🤣

Your customers are very lucky to have you and your family around to do what you do!! Awesome job guys. Love your motivational quips at the end too. Thanks for producing these videos guys!!

You guys make an awesome team. It seems safe to say that you know what each other is thinking. It’s cool that you guys take on the elaborate wiring jobs that other guys don’t want to do. Paul and Matt know that they could probably get the wiring done,BUT it would not be done 100 % and it definitely wouldn’t be done in a timely manner. I really enjoy the content. Thanks for sharing.

Chad and family are the absolute gurus of wire...you all are good...Paul and Matt are beaming because of your excellent work and ethic...

Nice back ground music 2 thumbs up 👍👍 keep up the good work Chad family.

That’s a real sweet truck there….💪🏼👍🏼🇵🇷

What Chad should do is put his stickers on the fab rat in Strategic places 😂 Like under the hood, on the dash…… LOL Love both your videos great team.

Definitely "Chad's crew" should at least get an "honorable mention" since they don't officially have a vehicle in the games but probably have a substantial commitment to the vehicles they've contributed to. "Paul's pig" at least got some lipstick (paint) while all the others are presented in their various stages of "rusted gory". Jimmy's even got working windows. Busted but working. This has been a few busy weeks for us binge watchers. Thanks for the videos Matt, Paul, Jimmy, Cassey, Rory, Chad and I know I'm missing at least one more. See y'all at Hurricane. Regards to all from Canada's banana belt. 🤞🇨🇦🍌🥋🇺🇦🕊️🇺🇲💩🦃💩❄️🌞👍.

Morning Chad and C-Fab Family... Your wiring expertise is mind-blowing!!! Love that the boys have followed in your footsteps!! The FAMILY aspect of all the UTAH BUILDERS we love to watch is what keeps us coming back!! In this day and age of families being broken, scattered or TOO BUSY to make time for relatives, it is refreshing to see so many of you who keep the family unit together. Don't ever stop being the wonderful, humble folks you are!!! Safe travels friends ❤️❤️ Stay FROSTY... Keep your powder dry and your head on a swivel... 🇺🇸🇺🇸WWG1WGA🇺🇸🇺🇸NCSWIC🇺🇸🇺🇸

Chad get yourself a stepped drill bit they work great on sheet metal.

Those horn solenoids are a definite weak link. I predict a manual lanyard pull valve in the Fab Rats future 🤠

After day 1 I would just start cramming wires under the dash and everywhere else. I could not do this tedious meticulous detail. It’s great they someone can

I think the control box for the strobe lights flashing in my face would drive me nuts or can the flash pattern be turned off?

What you've done to the Rat Rod is very impressive. Wiring is space shuttle quality.

Ahhh...can't wait to see your nice work dragged across 'abuncha rocks.

I think I can get behind "judge less" but do I have to "love MORR"?

So glad you got the Rat Rod tow truck done and back to Paul. This thing is going to be a beast on the trails. Wise I lived closer to all of you's so I could hire you's all to do work for me. Getting to old to work on things nowadays.

You are going to have get off your wallet and get a knock out set. If you get a speaker magnet. A round donut type and place it around your hole saw location the metal chips are easier to clean up.

Chad you and your boys do great work. I know you are very proud of your sons. I love to watch y’all work your magic.

Annular cutter is the way to go for that type of work

Judge less and love more?? Well, what do you do when Judge is your last name? Haha 😂

You ar A wizard chad 💪👑

Your editing skills, whoever is on it,. Is really good. Thumbs up, really appreciate good job, I have been trying it, and it's not easy.

You and your boys do great work love how you work so well with the boys

you guys are so talented... it a pleasure to view your videos....

Hello, Chad, you and your boys are just brilliant. I don't miss one video that you post. Great job and well done. George Julius, Cape town, South Africa.

“This thing doesn’t even have seat belts!”😂😂😂

That's brothers you're in an uncomfortable place. Let me push you in further. LoL God bless

Nicely done, Looks good, Paul will have fun with it eventually, It's just going to take some time.

Matt will wish he had a light bar system like yours before the games are over. Mat's rig should be named BABY HUEY. Anyone remember BABY HUEY?? BIG, YELLOW, and STRONG.

Hey Chad...hole saw trick. When starting, drill backwards until you have a decent groove. Then go forwards....smooth like butter with no walking. Defies logic really.

Where do you get your factory wiring diagrams? I'm guessing you have a subscription to an automotive data service.

Hey Chad !! Great work on ""3CPO"" lights & rest of the wiring !! Yepper--trying to find a loose connection is a pain in the butt for sure ,,but you found it !! HAHA 🙃🙃😗🤠😎😳👀👀👍👍👍👍👍

I Plained to Stop at ur Shop to get some Shirts BUT i haven't been thru Salt Lake city area in Over 40 plus yrs. OOOO Im telling u that area is BIG Now 😲 !!! I came thru Sat. Early so i thought the traffic would be light , WRONG !! Cars Everywhere and driving a 34ft. MH and Towing my ole 73 GMC 4X4 One ton stepside , i just went thru !! Im Sorry 😔 But Now ive moved to Moab from Lake Tahoe and im sure ill see uall Sooner than Later ! Boy has Moab got Big Too !! Thanks ferr Another Fine Video and Happy trails ✌️😊✋

Hey Chad that was mani white lol

I had a big toy at my elementary school 😂…..good times!

Chad, Good Job. I'm not surprised by the way you guys are all working together for this event. I'll bet everyone's metrics are trending straight up. I know I'm following everyone involved. LOL. Let's Go Brandon... FJB

As usual, great job guys. God bless.

You all have the patience of GODS. I don't know how you do it. I love tinkering, but at the first sign of hidden electrical gremlins, I just can't take it anymore. The ability to stay cool and track down these things is a superpower, I kid-you-not. Thank you for all you guys do! You're the nervous system that keeps MORR & FabRats running. 💪

Judge and adjudicator. Well done team. Rory's truck is well tested. He has the most off road experience. Matt has alot of experience but truck is not fully tested. Paul's truck is not tested, smaller but powerful and well put together. He may surprise. Merlin is old school. Tough and durable. But this is the Olympics, which team is best prepared: design, machine capability, confidence, skill, comfort zone, spares.

Chad's Fabulous Fabrication! Excellent work by excellent people!

As near as I could Tell, the 'Honorable Customer' was willing to accept what you Delivered. (Or it might have been that he was so close to being "Between a Rock and a Hard Place," that he was just Tremendously Pleased to have it back under his "Glendale Control." (Tell me; was Michelle pleased? No -- she'd have wanted it, however many corners had to be Cut -- she wants to Tack some MORR skin out Flat, to the back of the woodshed.)

Y’all guys are geniuses! Awesome job!

Nice Job!, is there a binding issue? watching the passenger tyre coming out of the trailer it was locking.

What a pleasure to see and hear your calmness. Great job, guys !!

Pride of American FARK, UT PAINLESS, you make Chad and his Fab crew look real good.

Absolutely beautiful work guys! You're the secret weapon for both Paul & Matt's teams‼️💪🥊🎉🤩🎯💯

Absolutely appreciate your videos especially when you talked about Judge lesson live love more I think you said anyway, this is six in a row Jim from Kennerdell Pennsylvania yeah I’m that guy it’s got that 91.5 dodge with six in a row under the hood doing about 300 hp in about roughly 600 foot pounds of torque it’s the real deal man.❤

Hole saw hack. Remove 1/4" pilot drill and replace with 1/4" rod ( high tensile ) Use 1/4" drill for pilot hole and then use hole saw with rod guide. Stops breaking of pilot drills. And can make pilot rod/guide as long as required when not square to work. Hope this helps.

WOW guy's just an AWESOME JOB! Love watching and listening to you guy's!

Yes my brother! 'nobodies perfect, judge less, love more. Spoken like a real, strong, influence in your families lives. Great thing you folks have going here on RU-vid.... Looking forward to seeing your next video..,. Oh wait,....! Is it called a 'video' ???¿?

For how much work you have done on Paul’s wrecker I’m starting to think it should be team CHAD-RATS

I wish I could give you two thumbs up 👍 👍🤔

So the question everyone has but won't ask because it isn't "PC". 🤣. How can Paul and Matt possibly compensate Chad for what he has done? If you count man-hours they can't. Just sayin'.

Chad are electrical wiring harnesses getting more sophisticated? Or things unique for Fab Rats truck? I think Paul and Ben took the "Kitchen Sink Approach" to this build!

Great Job on the Rat Rod Wrecker! I so glad you painted the front clip to match the cab! ((((Was wondering if anyone thought of dedicating the build to Paul's Father? - Maybe put a sign inside the truck somewhere? - Just a thought! - Thanks for sharing! - Keep up the good work!))))

Love that you guys are using grommets as, left to Paul, the 'water proofing' would be squirted out of the End of a tube of RTV!! Hahaha!!! .

wow Chad!!! fabulous job!!! All of your team work Miracles .... Great job !!!

“I’m just going to build a harness real quick…”i hope everyone who knows you appreciates your knowledge and talent….i could build a wiring harness….it would take at least 2 tires and at least a week to happen. 👍👍

Your crew is soooooooo talented. Fantastic looking wiring and creative design for the wrecker. Great job 👏

You are an incredibly still and patient man with the ability to teach and pass on your knowledge. Thank you for sharing these jobs with us, the quality and dedication shows in your workmanship. Great effort 👍🇦🇺

Nice job Carter family I thought Paul was building off-road wrecker not a space shuttle like I said before if it wasn't for Chad's Fab Matt and Paul would have yard art

Always thought the squeaking on wipers was the dry blades. You taught me differently.

Looks good, runs great, now lets see if she has GAME!

@24:13... Indeed, like a Turd of Hurdles! @26:04... When Paul is backing the wrecker out of the trailer and pulling it into the Shop, you can see why it's important to run the same size tires, when you have a 4x4. Those front tires were "Skipping" a bit!

TBH, I wished I lived closer to you folks. I have a 95 silverado step side extended cab that I am trying to put together with a 327. Sometimes I just need a little nudge in the right direction and some good friends thats willing to help

Chad and his boys are the MVP of the wrecker games. Two trucks completely unable to work without hundreds of hrs of there expertise.

Very Nice work, A Lot of people hate doing the wiring. Me, I love love doing the wiring in Vehicles and Aircraft. The biggest trouble I have is deciding all the stuff I want to install and control. All wiring looks like it will be trouble free. How if you can get Paul to paint all exposed metal so it won't be rusty looking next year.

Oh, just a thought watching you crawl up under there....One of yall needs to design a flip up dash while you're chopping and fabbin'

The "Professor" works his magic once again! What would the "Utah" crews do without his expertise!

Wow. So, so much custom wiring but that is expected for a custom wrecker. Another great vid and another job well done.

I feel like giving you a hug for Paul Chad. I can only imagine how happy Paul is. I wouldn't want your job for nothing but you sure make it look easy.
