We Got Asked To Help

So I got asked by Matt to help with a Jeep rescue. The catch was it was in the hills northeast of Los Angeles. Having never been that far into California I said why not. So Shawn and I loaded up and headed that way. After we had lost a trailer tire on the way to Hurricane, when Matt had an issue with a valve stem on his trailer we took the one out of our damaged tire and got him fixed. Then we made it down to L.A. and met up with the customer. Then it was a long drive up the mountain to where his jeep was. Then we settled on doing a rigging pull using multiple Yankum Snatch Ring XL's and so e Trailmater Superloops. We managed to pull it up and level. It fired up and drove itself down. Then it was back to Johnson Valley to recover someones buggy out there. We ended up using Matt's ‪@premierpowerwelder5095‬ to weld the broken knuckle to the ball joint so it could be driven out. Then while they drove it back to camp we ran over and tried climbing the obstacle called Back Door. It took awhile but I finally found the line. Thank you everyone for watching and supporting us.

I like the customer, asking how to improve and how to do it by himself next time.

[@Drones_and_more]

The customer certainly made the right choice by getting help, it was a nasty spot he was in.

"How do I not have to spend a LOT of money to someone else in the future" overkill is the answer. Prepare for everything😂

I am betting he ordered a couple of inedible donuts and soft shackles as soon as he could. And if not subscribed to Trailmater, he is now. 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

Nice of you to go look after Matt. You take your eye off him for one second though and he's nearly hurting himself.

[@patrickb5656]

That was genuine appreciation by the customer. Rightly so. Nobody local would help. He admitted to not being qualified to do the recovery himself and asked for help. The Jeep is out. ZERO damages as opposed to resting at the bottom of that cliff. Both crews thoroughly enjoyed the trip. Winner, winner!

Is a master class to watch the expertise differences in Matt from a sand environment versus Rory of Moab edge-banded trails or narrow passages, rutted with rock fragments and boulders.

Rory, with the recovery of the 2nd vehicle I watched Matt's video of it before this and I think you did it better as you told us and showed us what you/Matt was going to do and how.. whereas Matt just brushed over it and then we saw him cutting something... there is a lot to be said about telling a story and showing it which you and your editing team to better than Matt and his team do. Great teamwork always makes things work out better... I liked the part where you all discussed the recovery and then showed how to do it with just one vehicle and the rigging. The young guy asking about how he can rig it better is a great thing and showing that was also educational for others to see and hear... It is never wrong to ask questions when you do not know. This video definitely shows the 2 different editing styles of each of your channels.

[@ljprep6250]

Rory, we used to fly from Arkansas to HelL.A. every couple years to spend Christmas with our grandparents. We would get close to L.A. and the pilot would point out the big reddish-brown, mile deep cloud about 30 miles in diameter as being our destination. A few miles from exLAX. we would descend into it and sometimes land on instruments only, no visibility. As soon as they opened the cabin door, everybody's eyes would instantly start watering from the smog. Today, they have only about 10% of the smog they had in the '60s. Be happy! Good play, Shawn. Keeping the ferocious beauty calm. ;) (The 2 things I miss about California are the gorgeous women and the gorgeous scenery. // WOW!
