Recovering A Wrecked Ford And Adding To The Fleet

We went in to get the wrecked Ford on Steelbender Trail. Once we got there we decided on winching forward then driving it into position to winch it out. However we found the right line and managed to drive it right out with some spotting. Once out we rigged up the Scrambler behind Trailmater and headed out. We got it down to the body shop for repairs. Then we happened across yet another tow truck. We worked out a deal with Dustin from Moab SxS and we are going to build him a SxS specific recovery rig out of am old Ford ranger rock crawler I have. Look forward to that being introduced soon. Thank you everyone for watching and supporting us.

I want to see trailmater pull a trailer with another trailer attached to it with only a bicycle on each trailer and on a trail “not rated for trailers”. Just so the haters will hate.

Make it an old ten speed road bike 😂

[@cdodge2996]

Last video, I commented Rory should do it with his big gooseneck.

[@charlesbolduc2796]

That makes recovery more fun when you are not prepared

[@michaelc.3812]

Wow, Lily is really improving with her video recording! What a smart, talented and pretty young lady! Good job dad.

[@kevbev1524]

Mike better not take off too much time, Lilly will be taking over.😊

[@GULIVERSOFFROAD]

man you guys walked that thing out like it was on pavement awesome job

[@philipstaite4775]

Agreed. If you really want to get a stock 4x4 crew cab pickup through there, Rory and crew are the guys to do it. I was surprised at how easily it got un-stuck and drove out.

[@davelee9087]

Except for the wheels buried in the sand, it came out using the finesse tool!

Dramatic rescues, great scenery, great chemistry between the 3 amigos. Please do some collabs with other youtubers to increase your exposure and subscribers. Your content vastly surpasses what is on many of the other channels in this genre. You deserve MORE.

[@sasquatchd0012]

Man! I gotta say, I drove right by the new and old shop this past Friday evening. I dont know if it's just me, but the videos just don't do it justice, all of your rigs are beasts! And it brightens my day when you, matt and Paul all drop new content! Keep up the great job guys!!!

[@LaDonnashielded-kc7zm]

Lucky you. Trail Mater does look tiny. Knowing Rory is nice and tall, when he stands next to her it puts it in perspective.

[@macattack1392]

So did they say way they are moving? I know the place before appeared to be big & multiple bays. New 1 has 1? Jist curious. Down sizing is fine & smarter if that's what works for him.

[@lonhoschar1943]

WOW!! Nice job!! I can't believe with just a little winching to start off with and then you guys drove that Ford out of that spot and back to civilization!! I figured it was dead for sure! LOL!!

[@johncraig406]

I love that Grin that Lilly showed us in the first few seconds.... again Rory, I want to say that I really Appreciate the Fantastic Resolution of your Videos now.... your channel is putting the other Recovery channel videos to shame for Resolution.... even underneath the trucks, I can see in the background, features in exquisite resolution...

I love that after a little tug, she came out under her own power.. kudos 😄🤘🏼🇺🇲

my exact thoughts...looked like a pretty long wheel base for that clearance...P.U. had the guts, Rory provided the brains making it easy for Shawn to drive out with some cool AC on high.

[@williamson8078]

nice you know that little lady will remember these days! one dad to all:)

I like the idea of a Ford Ranger SxS recovery rig. It will be the right size and have the right capabilities to handle the majority of problems SxS get themselves into.

Yup. I think we now know who can skin a cat! Who could argue with that? Good score on the old Ford. I have had my 7.3 for 27 years now - Love it :)

[@dstaff4134]

Proper planning definitely made that Ford recovery look simple on camera. Always awesome to see Lilly getting more experience with recoveries and filming. Pretty soon she should be able to help Dad run the brakes in the towed vehicles!! Another tool to the fleet? AWEOSME!!

Thought for sure your copilot would ask you to stop midstream so she could soak her feet in the cold water to cool off. The FORD project will not only be great content but, like you said, offer another dimension in recovery.

Nicely done on the recovery. Buying a Ford for a new wrecker, all the Chevy guys will lose their minds. The trans sounded like one of my old ZF's lots of noise but never blew up. Lillie is getting really good behind the camera. Thanks for sharing.

[@scottcochran384]

at least he's not out anything When he has to abandon it on a Trail somewhere..cause it quit running..

[@jlyonsden3677]

I think the furds wrecker parts will morph onto a square body in quick order. Place your bet.

[@edwardscott3262]

​@@scottcochran384Come on it's a Ford. It's not going to die on the trail. It won't make it to the trail. Found On Road Dead. 😂

[@S0REN_]

At first I thought it was worn syncros, but making that sound letting off the gas makes me suspect otherwise. At least ZFs are pretty straightforward to rebuild, if that's the plan.

[@vega1975]

It's ok to be a ford the body not bad. Just break out the welder and torches and the chevy mounts put that spare 454 and chevy tranny and chase. LOL LOL

7:03 Just did that obstacle in a rented UTV a few days ago. We went down it, then decided we were way in over our heads and turned around. Wife and kids got out, locked the diff, put it in low and hoped I wouldn't get stuck. Felt way gnarlier than it looks on vid.
