Season 16
Episodes
ZMax Training Truck
Class is in session, and Bruno and Matt learn about the ZMax Training Truck and how it makes stops across the country. They fix some problems on the truck by adding bigger brakes and installing some helper springs in the back to carry the extra weight.
Steele's Old Truck
Matt bought an old '86 Chevy truck, and the problem is it needs some work, and he can't do it himself. So how does he convince his buddy Bruno to help him out?
Truck Hero Gladiator
Bruno and Matt have never had more parts for the new Jeep Gladiator. They install a 4-inch lift, snorkel kit and fender flares just to name a few. This Truck Hero Gladiator project is going to be a beast when its done.
Diesel Drag Truck
Matt and Bruno bring in a purpose-built F-250 drag truck. It's making 40 lbs. of boost and keeps losing intake boots and head gaskets. The guys will fix the problem with a wastegate and blow-off valve and watch it take a final pass.
Driving is a Privilege
Matt gave his 2011 Chevy Silverado to his son, and now it's back in the TU shop for accident damage. Matt explains why sometimes it's better to make the fix yourself than to go through insurance.
Pair of Duramax Engines
Matt and Bruno look at the newer and older Duramax engines. Just like any diesel engine, L5P still has parts that can be improved upon, and that is exactly what the guys will be tackling. They take care of some common problems of the Duramax, while also adding performance and reliability.
Great Mud Debate
Matt and Bruno have a new LJ Jeep in the shop that is going to get some performance goodies and other cool styling options. Matt thinks it's a good idea to put it through the mud, but Bruno is not so sure. He thinks it's more of a Mall Crawler than a Mud Crawler.
Older Daily Drivers
The guys bring in a pair of older daily driver trucks. An F-350 needs a new transmission, while an '88 GMC gets a few much-needed interior components.
Package Deal
Matt and Bruno agree to a package deal with these two trucks. The owner said to have fun with the new Ford Raptor, but it order to work on it, they also need to install a chrome accessory drive on a '76 truck.
Transmission Conversion
If you've ever wonder what it takes to retrofit a heavy-duty five-speed overdrive transmission into a Jeep JK, Matt and Bruno are going to show you today.
World's Fastest Diesel
It's always a good day at shop when the guys bring in a race truck, but this isn't just any race truck. It's the fastest diesel truck in the world, and they're going to show you how it ticks.
Alumni-Duty
Matt and Bruno take a stock F-250 and give it all the bells and whistles: lift kit, electric running boards, fender flares, bed cover, wheels and tires. They're just tired from talking about it. Time to get to work.
Show Truck
The guys bring in a classic C10 show truck to fix a leak in the rear pinion seal and upgrade the rear brakes to a disc-brake setup. They also add new springs and shocks to the truck, and that way, it will be ready for the next show.

Moonshiners
The secret and illegal world of moonshining stretches all across Appalachia raking in a pretty penny for those who choose to shine. Moonshiners will go to unprecedented extremes in their efforts to hide their still sites and cloak their distribution networks, some can hide in plain sight. With new styles of shine being tested and sold there is a king's ransom waiting for those bold enough to grab it. But those who enforce the law are wise to shiner deceptions and more determined than ever to catch them red handed and in the act of making Moonshine. The day of reckoning may be around the corner, but don't sell the Moonshiners short. Each has a keen understanding of how to stay one step ahead of the law in their region, and in this ongoing cat and mouse game you never know who will end up in the trap.
Jeopardy!
Jeopardy! is a classic game show -- with a twist. The answers are given first, and the contestants supply the questions. Three contestants, including the previous show's champion, compete in six categories and in three rounds (with each round's "answers" being worth more prize money).
Son of a Critch
Based on the award-winning, best-selling memoir from Mark Critch. This new original comedy is the hilarious and very real story of 11-year-old Mark coming of age in St. John's, Newfoundland in the 80s. It's a heartfelt window into the life of a child – much older inside than his 11 years – using comedy and self-deprecation to win friends and connect with the small collection of people in his limited world.
The Last Woodsmen
The Last Woodsmen takes us deep into the secluded wilderness with these courageous and highly skilled loggers as they literally risk their lives. It's a rarely explored, dangerous business which translates to incredibly engrossing television.
On a floating barge hundreds of miles from civilization, veteran logger Jared Douglas puts everything on the line to harvest the largest timber in the world. One misstep in this high-risk industry could cost tens of thousands of dollars, or even a life. Joining him at the edge of the world is a tight-knit crew of lumbermen who, with only axes and hand-held power saws, take down massive, highly valuable trees that can be worth up to $70K each.
