Engine Swap And A Recovery
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 ก.ย. 2024
- We had to get the new motor swapped into the Scrambler so it can get sold. Then we took the new jeep on its first recovery after getting it setup with a backseat and tools. We got a call for a truck stuck in the mud on the mountain near Beef Basin. Mike and I headed up to get it. While it did rain on us and made it a little more difficult this was at the same time as the floods were hitting Moab. It took some work but we got both our jeep and the truck out and back down the mountain. Thank you everyone for watching and supporting us.

Well if you dont wanna damage your vehicle, dont go off roading it. Really simple. Really nice job guys
Ur free lol .
@@henriknordeng so true
22:52 Mike saying “oh no, this is bad” while snacking on Sour Patch Kids got a solid laugh
I love this channel. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy MORR, Fabrats, Chad's Fab, Rudy's Channel & Tom Toms now... but, if all of them come out with a new video at the same time, I'm watching a Rory Irish and crew adventure first 🤙👊
Fabrats, nah, Tom was better on MORR, Rudy is okay, MORR varies between dull and entertaining. Rory and co, genuine as they come.
MORR if the video starts with "another day in the shop" click away....
I’m 70 years old and have been around vehicles since I could walk. Family and friends working on vehicles, working in service stations and dealerships and being in trucking but I’ve never seen a Hillbilly Alternator Tester like that. If you don’t learn something new every day you might be dead. 🤷♂️
While I've never seen one exactly like that, I once had a test bed that the motor blew on that we replaced with a drill motor.
Its not on the market yet ! Proto type & waiting on pattons ! & insurance approval !!!!
@@davestevens4263 patent approval may take awhile; too many proprietary devices were bolted together to make it. But that doesn't mean that we can't use it!!
Funny can be educational! And vice versa!
Right on!
Most channels milk an engine swap for 2 or more videos, not these boys. 2 out, 1 in running and a rescue in a half hour. Legendary
I watch several different videos of off-road and watching what they are doing. Y'all are the only ones I watch that I always look forward to.
That looked like an entirely different eco system than you’re normally in. It kinda looked more like the trails we have out east.
Gee-eesh thatcwas greasyy!! It's almost impressive that they got that truck that far in! Great recovery....it shows your guys's versatility!!
I’ve always heard of that kind of clay referred to as grease. First saw that Ram and figured they didn’t go up high enough to clear the ditch and then Rory tried driving out and it was obvious what happened.
We have clay that in some places here in Kansas ! When it gets wet it's best to stay off of it especially if you don't know how to drive on it !
It’s not that hard when you don’t own it. It is a government agency vehicle.
The two coolest Jeeps ever built. Scrambler and LJ. Also the rarest.
I really love my LJ, it's got over 255000 miles on her. Glad to see Rory has one now, in yellow I looked into getting one that color with white hardtop and automatic transmission wasn't my choice. I wanted a MT and soft top. Later I found a hardtop for sale.
@@DB-yj3qc I sold my LJ because I didn't want to destroy it 4wheeling. It was mint. Got 1 of 3 million + JKs to wheel and after searching for a few years was able to find a Scrambler to take me back to high school days of Jeep CJs
15:26 - No wiser words have ever been spoken..
"Caption".
... Genius stuff.
This recovery was enjoyable to watch. I liked the challenge of the mud. The rigging was excellent.
Between you guys, Paul, Matt, The Peck Bros, that’s the first time I’ve seen a timing light come out. I was thinking they lived in the same cupboard as angle grinder guards.😂
😂
Nice night rider move Rory 😮
TrailMater Team has their own way of doing things! 😂 Epic! 👍🏼
That trail should be called "Nails on Chalkboard"
....or paint remover
@@AbeFrohman528 that’s just the Utah version of Colorado pinstripes. A very sought after and custom look😊
Snottys adventure! Snot the key word . It wasnt that wet when they drove in .

Didn't understand the comment until 22:20 😂
Waaaay back in the Old days timing was set without instruments. Remove the plug on the #1 cylinder The crank shaft was turned by hand until the piston was almost TDC, loosen the distributor & removing the Cap then we rotate the unit until the points sparked. Button it up and voila, the timing was set. I miss those days, my 1962 Chevy C60, mine had an L6 230 for light duty cargo hauls from the farm
Lol....eeww points. No thanks
@@samholdsworth420 I was driving a 1958 Mack B-61 Thermodyne when I was 12 years old hauling logs. what were you doing at 12? playing Nintendo? Oh, I weighed in at 165 pounds then, born in 1951.
That was a sweet recovery. Mike was on point with his initial comment of "that vehicle has no business being out here"
Nice new ride! You got it broken in with new custom pin stripes on the first recovery.
I live in Beautiful British Columbia and have lived in various regions from border to border but there's something about this area that appeals to me. Maybe it's the exposed geography where you can literally see millions (even billions) of years of rock. I've said it once and I may as well have said it a thousand times, this is beautiful country that you're in.
Listening to the sound of the branches on the bodies of both the LJ and the Dodge thru headphones is terrible. The places that people take their vehicles blow my mind.... good thing for Rory, Mike and Shawn.
Rory and crew work in harmony together
That’s what I like about TH-cam and these kind of channels it’s real crap going on there it’s not Hollywood made up stuff good job Rory that little yellow Jeep gonna be for the Daughter??😁
She’s growing up fast dad😝 everybody be safe catch you next time✊🇺🇸
I'm sitting here with tears in my eyes, I just want to watch you rescue people, it's what you do best, it's your calling .
There were times during the trail run of this video that I was leaning sideways because I didn't want to go slideways. I also grew to not really like driving through the brush mostly because you couldn't see the trail edge, not knowing if there was a washout hiding in the brush.
Otherwise that was beautiful country to ride in. As Mike said, that is a great dry weather trail.
One of your most enjoyable videos ever. Cretive boom work, YJs with lightweight bluetooth axles, hacktastic battery charging, flaming V8s, 'oh no u dinint' trails, slippery mud proving the gravity of the situation. One of your best.
Lots and lots of free pinstriping on the new to you Jeep.
I love the fire-breathing Jeep!
Yep, that bad timing made it pretty impressive. I’ve worked on old stuff that wouldn’t try to run if it was 3 degrees out. That 304? is pretty tolerant.
Mater for the win yet again. Your crew is unreal!
The Ol' Scrambled Scrambler is going down the road,
I always liked them and wanted one growing up in the 80s,
I ended up buying a used
84' Wagoneer with a select trac transfer case in 89' after graduation, the 4 wheel drive was on vacuum I guess, but the transfer case was old school lever into low, the engine was a 2.4 v-6, always wanted to soop it up but never did. I did install a 4" Rancho lift for wheeling and hunting.
it was Cherokee size, solid dark brown, no paneling design down the side like most wagoneers do,
Enjoyed the fixes and recoverys.
You guys make the day a little more tolerable. ❤❤

There was a Jeep dealership by my high school . That sidewalk had my drool on it from walking past them .
Soon Trail Mater channel will have 300k subscribers. Folks share this channel with other motorheads, RV people, and vehicle trail explorer's
500 By the end of the year. FYI
Rory should charge double for the recovery of that Ram pickup. Going to need the extra cash for a cut and polish on the new LJ (it needs a name please)! The noise of the branches scraping down the sides and top of the jeep were hard to listen to.
I'd call it Larry after my old boss LJ!!
LJ could be Tweety 🐦 Bird
You found the hardest-working small tree in showbusiness, and invented limitless free electricity, all in a single video!
Bad driving makes good film!! Classic
I don't think that the other bad apples out there can match TRAIL MATER AND HIS DIRT BILLY CREW IN DRIVING , CRAWLING, RESCUE, RECOVERY, AND OR EMERGENCY SERVICES!!!
oh look new toys👍
LOL
I have to wonder how many people watching this video.Have no idea what night rider is
On a side note I got to meet the guy. That was the voice of kit. I got to drive his brand spanking new rolls Royce fantom.
$486,000 for that car.
He was also a principal feeni on saved by the bell.
Boy meets world
How many knew about the TPS cover sheet? Only 1 boss, not 8.
@@Kyle-ev4fk Could be ....... my bad.
Pin stripes look nice on Rams. hahaha!
Sweet LJ, Mr. Rory!
Thank you Rory and crew for sharing this with me !
Old enough to know better!!!! But young enough to do it anyway!!! GEN X BABY
The llama totally looks like a seal waiting for a fish
Best intro ❤ y’all are awesome!
TH-cam never ceases to amaze me. The bot that stole your comment 2 hours after you posted it has 86 likes, but you only have 12.
"ahh thats the problem, the spark plugs are crooked"... dying here now. should watch trailmater "Rory" more often, for good entertainment and howling laughter. 🤠
That truck now has some nice pin stripes
0:03 I was always told “R” is for race mode
Unbelievable that someone would get such a vehicle like that in that deep. Great job!
mike is the best commentator for a video, so calm and positive. he is the human valium.
Nice little jeep -- and well worth whatever you paid for it -- mainly since the stereo says it has "BASS BOOST"!
Matt's sitting there salivating thinking about slapping his biggest morr sticker on that jeep
That new motor on the Scrambler sounded the coolest runnin on one cylinder. So unique!!! And the fire! And then one of you commented about it being "fired up". 😂
Rory is gonna become the satellite office for MORR with that yellow jeep lol
@14:30 wow ain't that a ditch lol.
Some of these people seem to get the least capable vehicles in the worst/weirdest spots. It's almost like a hidden talent at this point.
😂 True that.
It's a fun adventure though.
And most of the time you ask why ? I drink & im dumb! Whats there excuse? Bahaha
Them commercials be hella deceiving with "professional drivers private course" written in all Capps on the bottom😂
State of its truck…they don’t care
I liked the "James Bond" opening! Now I want to stay for the whole show.
Ohhh I’m liking the new LJ . Maybe you guys can do a walk around and show us what it has . Looks like Her father had some good taste when he built that thing it’s nice !
Congratulations on the LJ! I would love to have one.
Awesome I could hear every rocky-mountain-pinstripe being created as you drove through the brush.😅
Nice job! Goes to show what the right vehicle, driver and spotter/cameraman/driver can do!!!
No, guys. That's what I call a slick job.🤙🏽👍🏽🤘🏽🤟🏾💪🏻💪🏻😎🪶
Old yeller did a good job.✋🏽🙋🏽♂️
I said now. That was a slick job.
I bet we will be calling it (new) old yella even after it’s painted green ! ! 👍🏽😎
that slippery stuff reminds me of the santa cruz mtns way back when you could get out there. minus the massive ruts.
WOW, that red clay is some kind of trouble when wet, thank goodness for having a winch. Another good rescue by the Boss and Mike !!!!
Rock on Mike - enjoy the sour patch kids
Nice LJ Rory.
Looks like it was the almost perfect tool for the job.
WHY was that truck there in all places?????
Great recovery.
Great crew effort. The new ride proved itself.
DEMO flashing on the CD player is like the old VCRs flashing 12:00!😁
Goes to show even the best drivers in the world can sometimes get into trouble. Trick is, knowing how to get yourself out of it. Good going, Rory. And nice Jeep, wish it was mine.
Cool new Jeep. What a recovery! That looked like a 4 wheeler/dirt bike trail. Nice scenery! Great video.
Chris's dad cringing as the new rig get scrub brush scratches all over!!!
First day out and Rory putting nature striping down the sides of jeep. Customization!!!!!
I'll never understand how people expect to tie their shoes today 😂😂. They keep driving hyway vehicles into atv trails and expect a different outcome. Great job making a successful recovery, and nobody was injured. I'm happy to see you get your dream Jeep Rory
All I can say is I'm glad it was you out there and not me. I'm a big fan of traction and you didn't have any.
I need a wrecker to pull engines looks way easier
No exaggeration, it's life changing.
No worries on the raffle! We understand.
And you're the best! #nofanboy 😅😊
Edit: Your natural ability and wealth of experience, to understand pulleys and levers is outstanding. I learn something every time I watch your channel. Thank you!
As always great time boys. Thank you for all the time you guys put in making videos for us.
Thanks for the adventure and also thanks for the excellent video editing. You’re keeping the important scenes and at the same time cutting the unnecessary details. So many utubers are going for long videos and they leave in the yip yap and boring stuff. Keep up what you’re doing.
I just ordered a few shirts,
I added a note, not sure if you get the notes before the merchandise goes out,
I asked if you could all sign the back or upper front of the rock pecker shirts, even the editor and Lilly,
the whole team that makes it work, appreciate it so much.
🙏🏻🤞🏻🗽
That woman sure has balls taking that truck up that trail.
Thank you guys along with Matt's off-road recovery and his crew along with fab rats Tom Tom etc. I'm glad I found crews that seem to be good Americans and don't just want to show off a bunch of new toys and destroy the land some of us americans would die for
We appreciate the support! Thank you for watching!
Great Job, learned a lot about using the doughnut in combination with driving as well. Super thanks for the video and insight. You guys are simply the best at what you do, and the shade tree engine swap like the good ol' days can't be beat!
Guys it was a great video really enjoyed it, the new jeep worked great, maybe I'm wrong but I think a winch in the back would help out a lot on the narrow trails, you wouldn't have to turn around as often 🙏
Beautiful place, could you imagine living there.
Sarcasm?
We were just out in Moab and had a great time camping on some BLM land. Running some trails including part of Metal Masher with our 4Runner. We didn't have time to stop by, but did see Sean drive by in the white Ford wrecker. Glad we made it through without having to call you. The new Jeep will be a cool addition to the fleet.
Edge of my seat Video...
Good job guys.
I was more than just "entertained"
Love your videos.
Gettin them back country Squeeze Strips.
😲
That trail looks like a great place to block off completely with boulders, plant tons of trees in the trail all along, and forget it was ever there. 😂 Yikes!
Isnt that where you guys did that recovery a couple weeks ago? Wow.
Nice job not losing vehicles down the hills.
That was not a relaxing weekend scenic drive sort of video. 😂 Enjoyable nonetheless.
Very interesting. How the heck did that truck get in there! Good grief! And then she wants it out with MINIMAL DAMAGE????!!!! 😂😂😂😂
Y'all did an excellent job. Fortunately for the truck owner, you guys are the masters of minimal damage, unlike whoever took that truck into there.
Impressive!
I didn't know Matt's Off Road Recovery worked out of Moab now! 😉
Grand wagoneer that had the amc 360 is what you need to collect for spare jeep motors.every now and then you'll score a 401 in one.
Hey team! Quick one, love the channel, the radio in the jeep is on demo mode, if you hold the silver nob in for about 10-20 seconds while the radio is off, you'll get through options to turn off demo mode 👍🏻👍🏻
Solving life's biggest issues one at a time... Lol
Nice job boys and congrats on the new rig!
You guys are awesome. I'm really liking your new Jeep acquisition. 👍
I still want an LJ! I’ll live vicariously through you until then.
That clay is so slick once it gets wet people don’t even understand unless they use to drive in that excellent driving gentlemen
Mud just makes the ground softer in case you fall. 🤓..👍
I love the longer videos 🤘🤘 I don't even care if it's drive time
Amazing skills dude
That’s the type of mud where you start out with 37’s and end with 46’s . When you walk you start out 6’4” and end 7’3”
Don't forget the weight gain.
Love how the 3 of you can do a full motor swap faster then most can change a tire. Really not understanding people on why you take a full size pick on a goat path. Then they have the nerve to say don’t cause any more damage 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
Great video ...covered a lot of cool stuff today..thanks for the ride along
That was fascinating back country. And, I appreciate how much work goes into making these videos. Rory taking a picture of Mike taking a picture of Rory taking a picture of Mike.
Further, that sky was awesome.
The alternator shenanigans are exactly the kind of entertainment I came for. Hey Mike, did you get the memo about the TPS reports?
No worries, I'm having a righteous riot enjoying your material 😊
Loved the longer video.... can't get enough!! Thanks!!
