FJ80 Lost Its Steering Above Rose Garden Hill

- We got a call from a gentleman who had left his rig on the road above Rose Garden Hill the day before because his steering had broke. The lower balljoint(trunnion bearing) had come apart. So we gathered up some parts and loaded the rigs and went in to get it. We came in from the top which is accessed from Dewey Bridge. Along the way we managed to spot the bolts on the trail that had fallen out and broken. So once to the vehicle we got it picked up and put back to together and was able to drive it out. Thank you everyone for watching and supporting us.

This has to be the most boring channel on TH-cam. No click bait, no drama, no yelling, impossible situations turned mundane. You guys are just too good for your own good. There is a term used in special operations “the quiet professionals” I think it applies to you in the recovery world and as long as you keep churning out these videos I’ll keep watching no matter how boring you guys are! Just joking, another great video👍
and No clown show and No cleavage showing, WTF is wrong with this channel. don't they want 10 million subs, like the other tubers.
Haha! Great job with that. It should be stickied.
truth
If it get's to boring just let Sean laugh for a minute. I always get a smile in my face when he laughs. Same with Ben at the Fab Rats.
lol, nice!
It sure beats the hell outa me as to how Rory saw those nuts and bolts in the dirt, with all the twigs, little rocks, and general debris on the track - the big guy must have eyes like an eagle. I'll say it again fellas - it's not that this stuff is easy, but simply the fact you guys male it appear so. Impressive, very impressive. Go Team Trailm8er!
😆 "male it appear so"
Awesome job. Especially finding those tiny pieces in the dirt.
Add Eagle Eyes to his list of talents.
I am not surprised that he knew they would make a difference, and even where on the trail they most likely dropped off. But to find them amongst the dust and distractions.....the Force is Strong in this One.
eagle-eye Rory.
I'm in heaven: TWO videos in a little over a day! awesome. Thanks Rory and crew for making these videos.
Here is an idea: underneath the "Thanks for watching" maybe write "And thanks for subscribing 👍"
Your channel deserves a lot more subs! Hugs from Belgium.
Rory is a repair master on these trail's Sean and Mike are excellent backup team members. Rory knew to look for the washer's that he knew would be missing and he recovered them and completed the repair as needed and the owner drove it out! Good job 👍
Watched for the Fj recovery; stayed for the rush hour quote. Keep it up guys!
Another trail fix … great! Scenery … awesome as usual, even beautiful flowers in bloom: thanks Mike! And Rory has a new nickname … Hawkeye Irish! 😊😊😊
Rory and the Mater Crew are the best.
It never ceases to amaze me how beautiful your "office space" is.
What's not to like? V8 noises and adventure in beautiful scenery!!!
Rory and the guys are awesome they speak to everyone. That’s why we like uns
Little Miss Broken Record here....just absolutely awesome all around yet again! Keep on rockin, we'll keep on watching!!!
Can't wait to see the blue wrecker with lockers and doing digs!!!
Amazing scenery in this one 👍
Still watching, love the content 👍🏻👍🏻
Lovely scenery, trail repair, funny interactions and trail mater's lovely engine.
😂 Honored to hear those squeaks eh...
✌️🇺🇸💚❣️
Very good video. You guys were prepared and things went smooth.
That'd be a great game - scatter parts on the trail (most of which you'll need for the repair) - you need to find them, and decide what's broken before you get to the rig...lol. That's a great episode - thanks. And some Blue work too - impressive - 3 broken bell housing bolts...
You never cease to impress!
You guys are a riot, great joy to watch!!❤
Rory has created a new job. Trail Parts Prospecting ! Who needs an Auto Parts Store? 👍
🤣Shawn always giving inside info!!! Heck yeah Ole Blue.
While Trail Mater conquers the trails, you are the Trail Master.
Great video and great job with the repairs and stay safe and God bless from GA
I was in Moab last month and I didn't Trailmator,so I thought, reviewing dash cam video, there she was at the shop and I missed it. Keep going team, every video gets better and better!
fantastic video Rory, Mike gets all the awesome shots walking or riding shotgun with you , Shaun is just super chill doing his thing, the FJ80 owner super happy you fixed his rig in record time, the next video on old Blue will be fantastic to watch it get the upgrades it needs to continue on the trail for capability and safety for you 3 👍
Some awesome outtakes at the end...more!!!
This Team's skills are very high level.
It great that you can do so many things, and as always another great video thanks
Certainly beautiful country! 😊 Nice trail fix .
I loved the elderly gent with Matt's hat hiding it in shame...lol
No tomato, with you all the way 👍
Nice fix guys !!!
Great video...
See ya soon.
That’s a good eye Rory finding those washers.
Damn, you got good eyes! Thanks for the great videos!
Really enjoy your videos, thanks Rory and team
Great video, guys. thanks for the laughs.
Great work as usual Gents! Looking forward to seeing the improvements on Old blue
Love all your videos. You guys are awesome 😂
Thanks for sharing.
Awesome recovery Rory Shawn and Mike (Trailmater)
Love it Rory: not happy to concentrateon the rigours of the trail you can also spot dropped parts on the ground from a 1000 yards - brilliant: great video again guys thanks :)
I really enjoy the shop videos. Keep them coming! Please!
@12:13... Imagine the size of the Diamond-Billed Rockpecker that made that hole!!! 😲😲 Woohoo, Blue's getting Lockers!
Thank you Rory and crew!
Like I used to tell my kids all the time....."My truck, my radio, No touchy..no touchy". LOL You guys are awesome. Love seeing the mods coming to Ole Blue. I think she is ready.
I've watched every video and press the thumbs up every time!!!
Rory, great work on the surface grinder! I will sometimes use a body speed file with 80g for a nice flat finish. Love the channel and content!
2nd video I've got to watch within the first hour of posting
Man that’s some killer terrain out here love the video
cant wait for the rebuild vid
Hopefully your luck woth ORD is better than mine. They strung me along for 5 months before canceling my doubler order. Thanks for the video!
Great recovery on top of building the excitement to see how amazing Blue will be when she gets some goodies/upgrades 😊 Keep up the amazing work
Excellent video
Curious if you checked the other side. Another one in the books for the celebrity.
IDK why, but I was thinking Ol'Blue needed some engine work for some reason, maybe because it's a Chevy, IDK, lol, great trail-fix guys, thanks for sharing.
Picking up parts on the way to the recovery, that's using your dipstick Jimmy. I also like the too many torque's, breaks everything.
What motor do you use in Trail Mater ???? whats the cubes ??? Everybody loves you.... I love seeing people recognize you on the trail....
You should carry a stack of Trail Mater stickers in your rig to cover up those "Traitor" hat emblems. 😉
Hey what’s up eagle eye Rory spotting cone washers from a moving vee hickle. Love your videos. Keep having fun out there guys
Did you say mysteriously loosening nutz & boltz? Rudy Wetzel had mysteriously loosening hardware while out and about in rural utah also. Are diamond billed rock peckers migrating north for the spring being attracted to rusty metal?
Hey! It’s the famous guy!😂😂
that suspension sounds like chickens and a angry cat in a sack but it works good job on the rescue.
Were those Pinzgauers you passed on the trail?
Hey you're the famous guy.
Rory (the Duke of Moab)
I've started dreaming (in my sleep) of climbing over sharp, scary edges.
Should have told the guys with the Matt hats to call Matt if they git in trouble. 😂
Again,, great video and content! Love the scenery shots! Who made the trails and roads? Who decides on new ones?
Maybe keep an eye out for another bell housing, a comment
There is the famous guy!!
Hey ALL Viewers !!! Let's get ""TRAIL MATER " to 200k by the 4th of July as would be a great treat for Rory & the "Shawn & Mike "" show !!!! HAHA 🙃😉🤔🙄👍👍👍👍👍 Thanks Rory & Crew for the ride along again !!! Those rear springs on ""MATER"" sure are noisy as the spring shackles // straps or loose center bolt need looking at ???? 👍👍👍👍👍
All I can say is I feel bad for Shawn or mike for riding underneath the truck to get those great under carriage shots !!!! 😂
Please like this video! We need to get Rory’s like to view ratio a lot higher. This will keep him around much longer.
Always the first thing I do and comment to keep the algorithm content!👍🍻
@@mr_mongo7228
Me too 👍🏻🇷🇴
When I bought my 11 year old 80 Series 17 years ago, the first thing my mechanic said to me was watch those cone nuts don’t come loose, check them regularly!
I always have ant they’ve never come loose !
Over 500k km on the clock and still going strong 😂🇷🇴
Aye aye kapitan.
I'm not one to comment on video's, but I am going to try to comment on each one watched. Simply put this channel (ROCKS). 🇺🇸
I subscribe to Matt, fab rats and you guys. I’m telling you that Trailmater by far is the most amazing, skilled group of men I’ve ever seen. The scenery is incredible, the repairs and recovery are always done masterfully and everything looks like it’s no big deal to you guys. Coming from a retired aircraft mechanic you guys are golden.
What most people would say is impossible, you guys would say it will take a couple of hours. Incredible channel. Thanks for sharing your work Rory, Mike and Shawn.
💯% agree
I agree Fab Rats and Matt’s has their own things they do well but trail recovery and trail fixes it’s Rory All Day Every Day!!!
Rory and his crew can fix almost anything. When I was younger I was the kid on the job and I loved working with the older men. They might ride me some, but they were always looking out for me. As one older worker said one day on the job, "I can fix that. Fix anything from a broken heart to the crack of dawn." The older I got, the more I worked along side of them, the more I learned and respected them.
FOR REAL AMEN TO REAL MEN DOIN REAL MENS WORK..
Great to see Blue getting some upgrades and repairs. Also, way to go telling us you weren't using front dig to protect terrain. Thanks for sharing!
As an FJ80 driver, I'm glad you are bringing awareness to the knuckle stud issue. Guys, always check your nuts!
every day before i leave the house :-)
I'm in my 60's and my nuts won't tighten like they use to 😢
Always good to see a successful trail repair. Likewise always good to see in-shop required equipment maintenance, improvement & repairs on the tools that do the heavy work.
The Trail Mater team is just awesome .
The creaks..the sweaks...the cobling of parts...windshield wipers that work...the scenery...Insanely Groovy...
"Hey thats the famous guy", that guy yelled out. Rory and team y'all are touching many peoples lives around the globe 👍👍👍
Thank you for the protection of the terrain... (no front dig)... nice to se the pretty "paint brush" flowers along the trail 🙂 Thanks for sharing your beautiful piece of the world.....Great to see Old Blue getting the TLC and upgrades... another Monster Mater 🤩 You make the mish mash of cogs, gears and trinkets sound sooo easy... 😂 but I am sure it is all very delicate mechanical surgery 🙂
I am impressed with your repair it was so awesome to watch the master do his thing. Ya'll rock, thanks for sharing 🇺🇸
Trail mater and Rory, the all purpose shop that comes to you! Your crew is awesome, what a great bunch of guys.Thanks for sharing
Can’t lose Rory, Mike and Sean, I’d miss the sound of creaking suspension…
1. Driving off road = impressive
2. Repairing broken stuff in the boon docks = impressive
3. Spotting small broken off bits of vehicle on the trail while driving = super natural
There's a saying in the 80 community, "Check yer nuts!" Every time after you go wheeling, you need to retorque them. There are also stronger ARP ones, and wits end makes a "nut hugger." Easy upgrades and very worth it if you're hard on your 80 like me. Peace!
Finding the absolute necessary parts is icing on the cake! Stay safe and looking forward to seeing blue fixed.
Can't believe you actually found the broken bolts on the trail! And Mater did that entire recovery in 2WD? You guys are awesome! :)
I like watching all your great recovery and mechanical skills. You guys make my day, because you are real.
No front dig to protect the terrain. That is awesome! The scenery is amazing and there was some nice footage from Mike of it today. You truly know your stuff when you know ahead of time to look for fallen parts before you even get to the rig. That’s impressive!
One thing, among many, that stands out in your video's that I really enjoy is that you guys always have great shots of the scenery where you go to recover or fix rigs. It is prodding me to get my Willys project of the ground and go see your beautiful country, keep up the good work!
Rory, Like a hound dog tracking an animal! He can sniff those loose parts like no one else! You guys always make it look easy. Thanks for the videos :)
Every video you post, makes my life more enjoyable. Thank you and God bless.
Not only are you a wheelman... you truly understand the repairs. This shows in your ability to know what to be looking for, what to bring, etc and effeciently get these rigs/people safely off the trai.
Keep up the awesome work!!
Thanks for sharing this incredible video. You and your team are incredible Good Samaritans working in difficult and potentially dangerous conditions is an everyday event! I Agree with what some of your other viewers previously stated. You guys are truly "the quiet professionals"! Your rescues are like trauma repair in the dirt and mud and then add to that, an EMT evacuation of the vehicles with all people safely from very difficult terrain conditions. Carry On Sirs!
Happy to see Blue getting the upgrades she needs. That was a great repair/recovery. The scenery is crazy great. The fans on the trail were great too.
Amazing recovery team. They do what I often think is impossible. Great videos all round. 👍
That would be awesome to see you guys build up blue. Still trying to learn some of that stuff.
Another great trail repair. I am looking forward to watching yall upgrade Ole Blue
Love the recoveries! Would also love to see more shop/ build videos too.
Great job again guys, and Rory you make an old truck mechanic proud of the trade buy repairs on the trail that most won’t even attempt in the shop👍
