@@thelonewrangler1008 the notification came.up on my phone, when I touch it , it goes click...so that's probably why that continues to be the choice wording still. My phone is my PC. It's much more capable than the last computer I owned many years ago.
I love how much you care about the park and nature. Nobody (outside the RU-vid comments section) would have an issue with you turning around there to do the recovery, or squeezing past on others but you go out of your way to stay on the track and set the best possible example for everyone in the process. Top tier human being right there.
@@REDMAN298 Rory for President? Now there's a thought. I wouldn't wish it on him, but he'd do a decent job of it. I have concerns about how the Secret Service would keep up with him in their Chevy Suburbans on those Moab trails?
only thing wrong with my life,, is 2 x wives.. & 20 yrs of my life lost, like the 2 houses, 2 kids, 200k..i see it as there loss,, not mine.. onwards, & upwards.. dont lie, dont cheat,dont hold grudges, dont look back.. maybe they, women, should listen to the song,.. if there war between the sexes........
Thanks for a great rescue video. Dang! the kind of terrain and elevations you guys have to drive are beautiful and scary at the same time. It is kind-of like "that is a beautiful rock formation, oh I could die here if not careful". Carry On Sirs.
Agreed. I watch some of these and think "Dang, that is beautiful, I'd love to be along for that ride." Then there's others like that narrow trail and reverse-up switchback and I'm thinking "Well, I don't know... How about I get out and film you while you drive up?" ;-)
Yep- extremely safe- Everytime I saw the hi lift jack come out, we would go ahead & call the emergency room to expect us. But- they're a must have in the off road world lol. Thanks for the video, & thanks for taking us along!😊
Big blocks will provide amazing TORQUE, if there is any movement by the crankshaft at all. They are amazing. Your ability to get them to provide work at low RPM is outstanding. There is a thing that used to be popular called regular maintenance, but it seems to be forgotten in our "disposable" world.
Definitely check knuckle studs. I have a ‘94 just like this one, I rebuilt the knuckles and one of the studs sheared off as I was putting it back together. Stress, and fatigue after 325,000 miles. Got all new studs just in case. Keep up the good work Rory and crew.
mine almost backed on on me on my LC. Luckily I saw a trail Mator video telling me to check my Toyota axles, and when I did, I could spin them with my fingers and they were a few threads from falling out. Thanks guys!
Great information about not turning around just anywhere i have never been out there but wouldn't have thought about that would have just turned around thanks
We learned about checking bolts from Shawn yesterday, and also, he taught us allways to fill up with gas before you go wheeling. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Thanks, Shawn, 👍 RoutineMaintenance is wonderful and cuts out cock-ups! 😂😂
Rory, Mike and Sean, thank you guys for the awesome content week after week! Love your videos and how you guys have so much fun together. You guys make a awesome team, keep up the great work!
6:31 that’s also why they started making the wonderful 6 shooter knuckles with 6 bolts instead of 4. Those axles are great if you fix the 3 weak points, I am building one right now.
You probably would have done better on the RTI ramp with the broken mount. I once won an RTI contest because I had a broken upper control arm mount. Didn't know about it til later.
Rory is the best MacGyver dude on the planet💯% The creator placed you exactly where you need to be💯% Your expertise with your Business is amazing!!! Your crew is amazing👍 Down to Earth hard-working sometimes breathtaking events so enjoyable to watch✊ Waiting for a build for a little trail Mater girl in the near future 👍 You’re an amazing individual Stay safe as much as you can doing the job that you do😱 And I will say it again you are the man👍✊🇺🇸
I thoroughly enjoy all of your videos! Rory, Shawn and Mike are all three very personable and knowledgeable men. I have learned much from just watching your videos. You're a great team! Keep up the great work. You are appreciated!
Just wondering if maybe the steering stop bolts are the same thread as the missing ones? Nice job getting it out of there and nice trail repair at the show.
I lost half a right index finger in a Handyman incident; I was wincing watching Rory under that booger... but the trail fix in downtown Farmington is classic Irish....cool!
I would love to see Bobby Layton do a complete body and paint job on Trail Mater. Give it some lovin’ that it deserves, working that hard for soo long. It would also extend the life of it to be totally checked out and refreshed. You got to shake things up now and then. 😊
The last video you said the buggy was ready to go and you get there and do a parking lot repair. Ha. Classic gettin it done! Good stuff guys. Thank you. We love it.
Elephant Hill! Wow! A blast from my past. When I was a kid my dad was building some bridges down there so we spent a lot of time there and it became my dads playground. I was so afraid to look where we were going on Elephant Hill that I laid on the floor of our ‘72 blazer. (I spent a lot of time there) Now I look at it as a beautiful adventure! Thank for bringing us along for the ride in your beautiful playground! 😊
First off, thank you for not having music in your videos, as I'd much rather hear the sounds. . Having been an import car and light truck mechanic for 30+ years, watching the field repairs is interesting indeed.
you do realise, that green buggy,, here in aus,, before the bolt broke, or got on the road,,would be crushed.. we just cant do that.. we have clipboard worriers, that hate any mods..
Always enjoy the vids..scenery..and the joking... i know the guy who will drive this out, well trained on the trails, knows his way around..and wont hit any rocks... was waiting for sean to reply.. where would i find a rock in moab.. lol. Always make it look so easy and effortless..
I know it's Rory channel and he can do as he wants but I'm so happy watching his videos unlike Matts channel that's become more talk and far less action and of corse obviously staged.
Thanks from England + always nice to have bolts that are going into a blind hole to have the heads drilled (pre-drilled AN) for lock wiring, and to lock wire them.
I saw a news story where a car owner had a High lift jack like the one your using, strapped to the hood of their vehicle and someone called the cops on them, claiming they had an automatic weapon on the hood of their car.
Those 80 series Land Crusers are fantastic on the trails with good coil suspension flex and a really nice ride. They weren't designed for rock crawling, but they're tough enough that they do a decent job in the rocks. They really excel in the desert and cross country in remote areas with terrible overlanding trail conditions. They regularly go over 300k miles before needing an engine rebuild. They're super tough rigs, but everything eventually has a wear or breaking point.
The Jeep sign is to show where all Jeeps go to die. (well it is Elephant Hill and elephants always have a place where they go to die, so logic says it is the same thing for Jeeps.)
Rory, Shawn and Mike. You all are AWESOME!!!! Don't change a thing. Your all real and truthful. Love it. Sorry Shawn if I spelled your name wrong. Keep up the great videos and great trail recovering.
Maintenance is key after each outing, my uncle taught me that when I was young. We would crawl under his blazer and tighten and grease after each run to Mexico
