  • 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.

      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.

    Rory, young lille is starting to develop a little CZcams star type personality. I think in time she'll be rocking the channel there with you guys. I enjoy watching her progress.

    I used to drive one of those around Denver. Glad I wasn't the owner. If you think the 454's drink gas that 460 is yelling Hold My Beer! I'd consider putting that wheel lift on your blue squarebody.
