Another Broken Raptor

I got a call while I was in junction picking up Lilli about a Ford Raptor stuck at the bottom of Hells Gate. Make ran out to see how bad the situation was and if he could pull them out. Turns out it was way worse than the customer had stated. So he just gave them a ride out and back to their motel. The next morning we decided to go in with more rigs and more people. We got him out of the Gate and up to the main trail. Then we hauled him back to the parking lot so they could get it hauled to a repair shop. Thank you everyone for watching and supporting us.

Lily will have her own recovery rig before we know it. She always adds an extra smile to the videos.

[@thelastamx]

She'll have one before Robbie 😂

[@mooshaker]

Imagine...a Pink TrailMater

[@stephenabril7084]

She will have a Pink Trailmater.

[@1tulip]

Maybe she will have some glasses or goggles some day too.

[@jdfmfb03]

EXACTLY RORY take care of your daughter!!

[@jimmylove6153]

Love the after bits. Y'all do realize that once she can reach the pedal's, and Lilly performs her first recovery. It's gonna break the Internet.

[@davestevens4263]

I’m ready for it , it’s gonna be a great day . Rock on lily !

[@rudiekeyser2495]

True words 🎉😂❤

[@ljprep6250]

I can't wait to see what kind of rip-snortin', rock-crawlin', tow truckin' beastie Rory builds for her when she's of age!

[@phatdaddy1955]

Trailmater...is a beast!!! And Lilly? She's gonna take over some day! Great vid and peace out!!

[@DB-yj3qc]

She will probably take driver's education teacher out to hells revenge then drive up it backwards 🙂

[@donsalladin2935]

I can tell your daughter loves being out on the trail with her daddy :)

[@Steve-od6hi]

And she is quite at peace knowing her Dad is in full control. (for good reason)

[@seanhorton3811]

Always enjoy when Boss Lady is on a recovery. Her smile lights up the video.

[@mlsargent51]

Hard to imagine out in the desert, with nothing around, and still draw a crowd to watch you guys, but there they are :)

[@415s30]

Unfortunately there are plenty of people out there.

[@thelonewrangler1008]

This isn't the middle of nowhere, it's the largest off roading area in the country and it's overcrowded if you ask a local.

[@mlsargent51]

@@thelonewrangler1008 I understand, it's the appearance that there is nothing out there. But I didn't know it was the largest area. Appreciate the info!!

[@jeeperp3926]

$100K for a truck that can’t do crap.

[@MacGyver2154]

​@@jeeperp39262010 Raptors were affordable at 40 - 50 K

[@QuidproMoto]

I always appreciate the wide shots mike gets! Nice job from the Trailmater director of photography

[@nutronik9]

One of the highlights of my Moab trip was catching this rescue in person.

[@nsbhagwat]

We would love to see your version of this recovery. Please upload it to YT.

[@nutronik9]

​@@nsbhagwatI don't have a video of this, but if you pause at 13:43, and zoom in on the truck in the distance over the passenger headlight, that's my black gladiator over there

[@DeeRebel44]

Tell Lilly it is always good to see her out with Dad!!! Another great recovery. You always figure it out and always get it done. Thanks for what you do. Have a great day!.

[@terrypen]

I'm kind of impressed that the Raptor leaned over on it's side and didn't scratch anything... must have been pretty close!

[@OpieDogie]

Oh, I thought that the bar on the passenger side was a “jeez handle” but now I see what it was welded on there for . . . a back pack holder for Lily.

[@billbillinger2491]

Trail Mater is an absolute low RPM Torque Monster!!💪

[@trebornoslo1951]

Aint nuthin like a Big Block Chev for low end grunt. Trail Mater churns all 6 of them just off idle!

[@timgoodwin7566]

Absolutely love every time when Lily is out with you Rory. Her smile is so infectious 😂😂

[@Kiki-Kauai]

That was no simple recovery! Impressive. Always good to see lovely little Lilly helping dad. Such a sweet disposition. 🌺

[@mh-im2kq]

That's the way to raise your kids.. involve them.. make them fearless.. let them enjoy things from an early age.. thank you trail mater for being an example.. 😊

[@woodyholland9865]

And Lilli just sits there and enjoys her Dad's driving through amazingly beautiful country.

[@cactustweeter2890]

Rory, it's always great to see Lily with you. You're creating memories she will cherish for the rest of her life.

[@ewood88]

Great recovery by the crew. Going up one of the steepest parts, Lily casually reaches in her backpack, probably for some snacks, like nothing is happening 😂

[@electrontube]

that little girl has probably done more hard wheeling as a passenger than most adults who are into off-road driving

[@kenmurray4232]

Nice recovery. Always nice to see Lillie out for some Dad time. Thanks for sharing

[@olehickoryoutdoors6815]

Lilly loves her job you guys have become my favorite channel to watch mike must be in great shape to do all the walking he does keep those videos coming 😂

[@woody4u247]

Rory's daughter could use a set of ski goggles or sunglasses with the foam around the lenses to keep the wind/dust out of her eyes... But... Just like Rory, she didn't complain.. she soldiered on :) Let's take a second to recognize Rory's Masterful clutch work... about 15:25 or so... he's going up a STEEP grade, with a boat anchor pulling back... and Rory masterfully start off without rolling back & without over revving or slippin' the **** out of his clutch!... Well done... Think about it.. all the videos TrailMater has done, all this steep climbs, heavy pulls etc.... How many Clutches has he replaced? I don't remember any? I THINK.... one was swapped out, not because it was burnt, but because the tranny had to come out for something else, and it'd be foolish NOT to since it's apart.... But Rory has got mad skills on so many levels. Respect

[@lornemarr]

Listening to Rory work that big block low end torque gives me great pleasure.

[@Karengarrett-qz1vv]

Lilli is getting so tall. She looks like all arms and legs.. little cutie.

[@lory2622]

14:46… the sound of Mike panicking…. “Ey ey ey ey”. A calm fellow.

[@jonhutchens9770]

Rory has a good attitude and enjoys his job.

[@kevinpeters1596]

Happy to see that you’re taking trash off the trails

[@ggalland1]

Mater is a BEAST! No denying it! Great recovery!! Hopy you had a great weekend with Lilli

[@loose-arrow-garage]

Another great recovery. Mike, thanks for showing us your smashed thumb there at the end. It looks like it'll be about a year before the new nail completely grows!

[@clivehorridge]

That’s if he didn’t damage the nail-bed. I did similar to my ring finger nail when I was 14, and I’m 70 now, and the nail still grows in 2 halves, side-by-side. ❤️🇷🇴

[@jeffschaller1562]

Love the Tow Trucks low end torque. Nice Throttle, clutch and brake work as always Rory.

[@davebenson1504]

Lilli is becoming fearless riding those trails with Daddy 🙂 Excellent lesson in strap/cable length and retrieving ability/skills... 🙂 Trail Monster to the rescue 🙂 amazing that those wheels did hold on... 🙃 Thanks for sharing 🙂

[@ianscott9396]

Once again the camera man is the unsung hero!

[@Kiki-Kauai]

He certainly does a lot of walking/ climbing. Mike is awesome.

[@lanesworld4000]

" It's much worse than the customer said." Rich people problems. I broke my Raptor dude 😂 Good grief. Keeping Rory in business.

[@paulhall170]

It's a tribute to Rory's design and construction skills that a recovery like that can be done in what looks like impossible conditions. Trail Mater is rough-looking, but it's perfectly refined for the tasks to which it is called, and Rory could drive it off the roof of his house and back up again if he needed to, I'm sure. And Mike is a terrific cameraman, a great commentator, and a relentless affirmer of what people are doing; such an encouraging guy to have around!

[@bigunone]

Can you imagine the stories Lilly tell the other kids about her summer vacation with dad, and the rest of the team!

[@Zircon_215]

Always something different. Never a dull moment on this channel! Mike has done a fabulous job … as usual!

[@jerrybauman6927]

I hope I'm around and your channel are around long enough to see Lily start driving off road. I can't imagine the confidence and ability she will have. Now that's goin' to be fun to watch!

[@rjm7168]

Seeing lots of stuck broken Raptors. Glad I'm a chevy guy.

[@harveystephens6115]

Lily needs a cam for some special footage shots! What a sweetie!!!!! Always smiling! Dad ya gotta be proud! Oh nice recovery!

[@billmorton6977]

Very very impressed with y'alls ability to recover broken rigs from the worst of places. Well done Well done

[@61rampy65]

Looks like Mike's thumb has healed enough to hitchhike. Another great TrailMater video!

[@Keinandrew3]

Good morning Trailmater

[@Sebastopolmark]

The customer did a good job on the brakes and that was an expensive repair! !! !!!

[@Doogie_Causey]

Those ole square body chevys always rescuing fords, Good Job Fellas

[@Craig-dq5cu]

Thank you for sharing .I must say again your SOLO outing video a few days ago,was superb.

[@mustafayildiz563]

hello to every one

[@josiewayne6004]

mikeys thumb still looking ruff..!!!OUCH!!!

[@Dave_Smith_1958]

Love to see the Chevy pulling the Ford around 😅

[@LaDonnaShielded-kc7zm]

Good morning Rory and trail mater team 💚❣️

[@agentcrm]

That rotor calliper really performed hero duties keeping the axle in that Raptor. Wouldn't have been a fun vehicle to carry out. Lilly is that point where she's growing quickly again. It will be cool to see her driving the trails soon.

[@jkwfo]

that's the only thing that's heavy duty on it , it was anticipated

[@sumo_steve45]

Excellent work Rory. You, your Team, and your equipment work soooo well together.

[@shirleyallen6072]

Wow - the power & know how of the Trail Mater team never ceases to amaze me...and our sweet Lily!

[@moopurce8973]

Morning from Prescott,Az!

[@jamiegodwin9881]

Rory, I wish I could have my boys see what I do at my work. I envy you taking Lily with you on Your recoveries. She will remember those experiences forever.

[@ronreith5185]

Great tow ... the towee in the Raptor did a great job of maintaining the right amount of tension

[@Krawlergarage]

It is always nice to see Lily on the recovery. She is becoming quite a young lady. I won’t be long and she will have a rig of her own.

[@alecfromminnenowhere2089]

This is when having the dual tires paid off. Having that much more rubber on the trail. Nice work everybody.

[@garychelf9201]

Lily is a sweetie and trail mater is a beast, love the video!

[@michaelmeyer5347]

Trail Mater, awesome hard working rig !! Crews no slouch either👍🤠👍

[@paulcost6446]

Awesome recovery, surprised that broken axle stayed in. when my rear axle bearing collapsed on my Holden one tonner just rolling it slightly forward the axle came virtually all the way out the diff.

[@michaelcauser474]

Is there any truth in the rumour that the US military have "requested" full detailed drawings/specs on Trail Mater so that they can create their own efficient off road recovery vehicles? Also, the rights to create Lilli clones to ensure they have an efficient supervisor in every vehicle? Do the car companies ever check your channel to see what the weak points in their off road capable vehicles are so that they can improve their products? Seriously, great team work as usual. You are still the first channel I check for new videos every time I turn on KZbin.

[@roygotham]

Once again you guys are amazing making that recovery look easy!! Job well done 👍. Thanks for sharing the adventure!

[@marvicty]

Trailmater is a f*****g BEAST!!!!. On a different note, what would Rory do without Shawn and Mike. Shawn wearing those stunner shades and Mike just being Mike

[@chrismcdowell5515]

Lilly un fazed as the truck bounces on an obstacle with her hand in her backpack, that's hanging on the grab handle is the best haha!!

[@garlandremingtoniii1338]

Outstanding!! Another, Absolutely outstanding recovery!! TRAILMATER STYLE!! Woo-Hoo!!

[@seanmonahan5268]

Sketchy awesome show you guys ,,,

[@rodney1818]

I would say that this video is clear-cut evidence of why Rory needs a 454

[@ShaunStinson]

Like the O shoot grab handle doing double duty as Lilys backpack hanger. A smaller set of daddy’s sunglasses is in order for her bright future.

[@lonhoschar1943]

Nice recovery guys!! That poor guy was NOT having a good day! LOL!! He definitely made the right call!! You guys are always great at recovering busted vehicles out of tough situations!!! 😄 Mike you do a great job getting those shots!!

[@jeepin4on4]

Another great video, Thanks Rory. Mike your thumb is looking good man. 🤣

[@ohiomoto]

This is impressive on many levels. The customer did a fantastic job handling the tow vehicle. It got dicey for a second or two but he kept it together. You guys made that look easy.

[@donalddarbonne779]

Even 6 BFG'S have a traction limit. Lol.

[@paulcooper2897]

Disc brakes are the only reason that wheel stayed on! It's why I love upgrading to them on C Clip axles .. one last get out of jail card .... Thanks for sharing 🇨🇦

[@crf4502]

That truck is amazing. The gearing, traction and torque is awesome.

[@paulchapman3948]

Ms. Lily’s wild ride! Looks like so much fun.

[@drewledbetter526]

Mike has the best job cuz the camera man never dies

[@albertdehn8381]

Great job thanks for sharing 👍😀

Rory , Mater is just awesome. Cheers Capetown 💥😳👌🇿🇦🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲

[@chiefvilla3167]

Good job Lily. Sitting there all quietly not worried about the job. Keeping those guys inline. Get er done girl.🤷🏼‍♀️🙆🏼‍♀️👍🏽🤙🏾👏🏽👏🏽✌🏽😊😎🙋🏽‍♂️🦄.

[@warrenjohnknight.9831]

Woow the Full A team, is on the case today, 😮😊.

[@mrfunnylookinhayes9088]

I just notice when I just clicked on the thump up it was 826 my mom heavenly birthday today. You always have some great and crazy videos.

[@timoldenburg2249]

A little touch of pink brightens up Trailmater 😂

[@golfaddict5276]

Lily is absolutely the sweetest thing (net to my granddaughter) in the world. I need to bring my granddaughter to you to take for a ride on those hills to see how she does. She is quite the daredevil, so she would probably do good.

[@JaniceParrish-uz5ts]

Yet another great recovery. Love your videos.

[@BobbieJeanM]

Even the wildest roller coaster is nothing compared to a trail mater recovery. Lily’s boyfriends better be prepared to do some serious rock crawling if they ever want to impress her on a date…in about 25 years! Old grandma’s opinion. 😉😂💕

[@Daniel-S1]

Thanks from England.

[@lcguitars2393]

How to make a Raptor perform off road. Step 1: attach it to the back of Trail Matter.

[@DanielLargo-vx4sc]

Awesome 👍💞

[@davidbartley6891]

Great opening sequence!

[@deshb22]

Yep, built "Ford tough". 😊

[@markB40]

Great watching as usual 👍 The torque and gearing never ceases to amaze me of the abilities that can be achieved with the right person behind the wheel. Shoutout to whoever is in the towed vehicle because they can make your job harder with wrong decisions.

[@williamglaser6577]

Thanks for no crappy music.

[@joeym2675]

Good Job Guys! It always amazes me that Little Lily never gets scared or worried in these trails! Half the grown women I know would be outside walking or at the top or bottom waiting for me to get there!

[@Kevin-go2dw]

No Lily is likely to say "Just back it down to him dad".

[@Greg-bu7mi]

Wow, Trail Mater sure inspires confidence! Having been there, that was quite a pull up out of Hells Gate. Nice work!

[@sgmrock4107]

I was hoping to see the Raptor "Transform" and just walk out! LOL

[@DownNDirty_OffRoad]

Great to see Lilli out with you again!! He broke that ford good!!

[@littleoldlady1863]

Hi Trail mater we are coming to see you sometime this month the 31 ok I hope you will be home 🏡 ok I can't wait to see you ok love Lorilee xoxoxoxox

[@1944chevytruck]

amazing!

[@96kylar]

Rory,.. you and the boys, need to be on next years UA....

[@jonviol]

You really ought to think about making a side impact safety bar or half door to protect your little Lilly . Could be hinged at the front and a simple drop bolt retainer at the B post . She looks very exposed even though she is belted in.

[@tylerwelken5790]

Thank those rear disk brakes for keeping the axle in! Only drums will come all the way out.
