- Getting a Gladiator out of the White Wash Sand Dunes after the front axle broke in half at the Front Axle Disconnect housing. Becoming a fairly common failure.

That chasing shadow scene just after 4 minutes where you're running east on a dune ridge for a few seconds, chasing your own shadow was incredible. That's one of those little happy mistakes that us photographers stumble into every now and then. What a great shot!
Man, the sound of that engine brings me back! The day I met Rory he took me to the Golden Crack via Rusty Nail and Gemini Bridges... FULL THROTTLE! I had Snapped an axel shaft the day prior and had to leave my rig over night...To this day I have never forgotten that ride! It was so BADASS! Trailmator made easy work of Rusty Nail and I gained a lot respect for this man and his craft. What an incredible service Moab Motorsports provides for the off-road community in Moab and the surrounding area!
Thanks for the kind words and the support over the years. Really appreciate it.
That rig is a monster , it groans , it rattles , it knocks , it bangs , and it dont care , it just gets the job done . nice one guys .
Man when you turned into the sand I had to keep replaying your beautiful engine note. Perfect sound for throttle snap on the sand. Even got me a couple goosebumps✊😂
Thank you ... 😁
That was my bro and sister in law
So happy you guys rescued them
I am sure they will be back to do this again - they had a blast 🌟
Trailmater, the ultimate " HOLD MY BEER" truck!
That looked like a fun recovery. Mike did awesome on the camera
New subscriber after watching Matt's off road recovery and Fab Rat.
Enjoyed watching your show.
Same. Started with Matt, then fabratz then robby now this
WOW. You hit the ridge on that dune and I almost lost my dinner. When you headed back to the trailer I was sitting here dozing off. How well I remember the sounds of those old gas V8's. It's like music to an old mechanics ears.That was the era when it was awesome to be a mechanic and the cars were a dream to work on in comparison to the nightmares they build today. We had an old '62 GMC 6000 cab-over with a 401 CI V6 engine for a wrecker. Every once in a while the exhaust would fall off and I swear it sounded just like the motor in the Trail Mater. A symphony. LOL
Thanks for the awesome video Rory. Keep 'em coming. Keep doing what you do best. Take care and for God's sake, stay safe out there.
Great rig makes these recovery look easy rory's knowledge really helps also
Trail Maters shadow looks awesome.
Got to love the growl .
It was nice to hear that big block “ stretching its legs” on the way in. Gotta love ol’ Mater.
👍👍❤️
Rory…would you please block whoever this is….it just looks NASTY!
Thanks.
👍👍❤️(you…not them)
The long shadow that is towing is wonderful.
"That thing will pull through the sand right?"
Trailmater: "What did he just say about me?!" :)
The guy could have probably left his jeep in park.
It was funny to hear the disbelief in the voice as they looked at this seeming old hunk of junk fixing to tow their fancy, new, expensive "trail rated" jeep out. lol
"You're gonna tow me out with that thing?" Lol, there's always new kids in the sand box...😂
That trail mater trailer situation is legit AF!!!!!!
The look on those guys face when Trail Mater showed up was priceless. There out there with their broken designer Jeep and the beast shows up. Show's you don't need to be pretty, just capable.
Great rescue and camera work. Love the sound of that big block, never sounds like it is even under load.
That truck is a beast.
Thanks + Big block sounded great.
Rory, I Got To TellYa!! How Much, I Love Watching U, Matt, and Paul!! Y'all Are Just Down To Earth!! Y'all Put Out A Video, Talk Alittle On The Video, and Then Get The Job Done!! Not Like Some Others, Talk, Talk, Talk!! Then Show a 7 or 8 Minute Video, Of Doing Something!! (ROFLMBO) YALL JUST KEEP REALLY!! STAY FAMILY ORIENTED, AND DOWN TO EARTH!!
Trailmator is a beast. Good job Rory
Great shadow shot at 20:13
Rory shenanigan's, I love it.
Great video Rory! So satisfying to watch a home-built beast of a rig drag a $50000 Jeep back to civilization.
$50,000. Ha ha ha keep going.
Good God, humble and competent... Please run for president!!
That shadow of Mater and the Jeep in tow was kinda epic... almost seemed like a cartoon. 😁
Man, kool set up !! The more I watch, the more I like your rig !! 👍
Hey Rory, thanks for another great video. Sounds like the first stop for one of those new jeeps should be a front axle replace. That is a crying shame, as high-priced as they are.
I don't think its Rubicon -rated anymore!!its rose garden rated, for sure!!
trail mater to the rescue!!
I found you and binge watched quite a few videos.. you are getting a lot better with filming and editing, a nite and day difference. Good job and keep it up
I never get tired of hearing that big block Chevy, no matter how old the video! Meastro of Moab...
LOL Rory. I’ve watched many, many of your videos and when you were off loading Trail Mater, I was thinking “ Dang, Trail Mater looks like the one in the Disney movie Cars. Then the guy you was rescuing mentioned that. So funny. ! Another great rescue Rory and Mike! 🤙😎
Trail Mater to the rescue, made it look easy. That's one hell of a machine you've built!

What a cool clip. Love hearing you let that big V8 growl across the dunes. I had a little chuckle when you come up on the sharp dune crest all of a sudden. The shot of your shadows across the ground near the end was a nice bit of camera work.
I used to weave loops in poly ropes for work, they work great on grabbing and locking onto themselves.
Trail Mater for the win 🏆
Those folks just found out how lucky they were.
17.07 the 🌞 siluet of the recovery process
impressive drive in without the front axle engaged!
Another expertly done job.
See you in the dunes Rory, as at 3:22 (ish) you said, "that’s exciting." It certainly was nice and exciting to see you in the dunes. It is amazing what Trail Mater can do with you at the wheel. Another one bites the dust. Nice recovery Rory.
Rory, im a new sub but my goodness watching you rig and winch reminds me of watching the old boys out in the northwest doing it with the big rigs... but then your offroad knowledge and how you just react... there arent many people around on this planet that can put everything together like you AND then your mechanical knowledge and welding skills you are a master of all you find interest in, my hats off and i am ever learning from your content!
Hopefully an upgraded aftermarket front housing is in their future. Thanks for getting them out of white wash sands area. You made this recover look easy. I know how hard it can be without the correct equipment. God bless you, family & crew.
Gets thru that sand pretty good when you feed Mater some hot sauce.
What a blast watching this romp in the dunes!
Thank you from KSA.
Great to see the ride in a little Play before work for Mater!! Such a great video
Lock in the hubs when you get there ...TOO COOL
OH YEAH, That's what I'm talkin ' bout BAY-BEE!
Oh I found your U-tube from Mat's too. I had been watching Matt's and Recovery team before. Then found yours. Keep up great work.
Hey thanks for the Merch! Crazy fast shipping and Great customer service. Ordered a Large and got a medium, Mark immediately made it right.
Thanks for another great video! Always an entertaining good time💯
Cool Trail Mater shadow shot!!
It’s so awesome watching you recover rigs on all the trails I know and love. I’ve seen you in person on the Poison Spider trail a few years back. Very impressive rig Trail Mater is. I know you’re not cheap, but when your rig takes a crap on the trail, you’ll give a kidney to get it out. Keep up the great work! 👍👍
How about "Reasons to buy a Mojave" for the sub title 🤣🤣🤣. Awesome video! Saw it in a JT group, gonna spend a few hours catching up on your stuff now!
Everyone did a great job. The camera man did a fantastic job:)
Any time any ware he will get you outa there ! I was thinking the Sand would be a problem ! But Nooooo !
Just watched this, great video, thanks. Love the shadows of your truck on the dunes would make a brilliant poster. The connection you have with the truck is great you obviously know exactly what it can and maybe can't do. 👍
great video wrecker is a monster.
👍👍 Outstanding Sir!!
Rory, you and Trailmater are superheroes! I always look forward to your next video! Much love and respect to you. God bless you and yours.
Absolutely enjoy the work hard play harder mentality the truck sounds good when you're getting on the angry pedal!
Really enjoy watching you work. The stuff you did with MORR & BSF was awesome. You guys seemed to compliment each other. I could see you all collaborating at other events like EJS, Rubicon, etc. Events all around the country. East, West all over. I don't know if it's possible or if the logistics work out, or if it can fit around having to earn a living. But I imagine it would be a TH-cam success for all of you. It's been a couple of years since I've been to Moab but I know next time I'll be watching close for a glimpse of TRLM8R.
That 454 sounds mighty healthy 👍
Towmater badass truck,it's like mad max.and the driver has got some mad skills.love the videos, keep it up
That was ………AWESOME
I really can relate to trail mater wrecker - nothing fancy at all but everything where you need it and it does run well ...
AWESOME JOB, AS ALWAYS!
Just relax a little bit you're extremely good at what you do actually you don't know how good you are but you are very good and achieving the gold that is required to bring people back to civilization with four wheels just be patient slow down you don't have to get in a hurry talking to people just be cool I appreciate you and I love what you're doing
Another MIGHTY JOB Rory
Great coverage on this one.
Found you through Matts OR and Rab Rats, love it!! Been in towing for over 30 years, but flatland here in Sac CA, loving it!
Great job as always .
You've built a great truck and recovery system!
I LOVE THAT TRUCK , TOW RIG , WHAT EVER YOU WANT TO CALL IT. ITS A FREAKING BEAST !!! GOD BLESS ALL, BE SAFE, I AM NOT YELLING JUST SEEING BETTER, SORRY CAPPS
The cameraman is certainly an upgrade, but I like your footage either way….
Hang tough, Rorey!
Gd- GO AWAY. WAY AWAY!
Hard driving on the sand. Wow! Always great watching. God bless Rory.
Old International Harvester Scouts used to break front axles when they flew over sand dunes
Just a little comment to help your channel grow :)
We are gonna head out some day to meet an wheel with y'all :)
Thank you for the videos - We love your work and attitude :)
Dee Dee :)
Good job mate 👍
That rig could have been named "Brute Force" .
All that low end torque just makes that thing amazing.
Interesting that every time Trail-Mater gets into a sand environment the throttle gets all excited & throws the Big Block power into unbridled beast mode.
awesome rescue Rory!
2:35 .. let'er eat!
Easy looking recovery.
Thanks for sharing 🇨🇦
And as usual another awesome video
Everyone loves Tail Mater!
Ok so mat ur the king of orr yet u still help these new guys with skills and Rory he has skills ya all just a good bunch a guys
Lol when I'm watching with my surround sound it makes it sound like I'm in the cab can feel the vibrations of the motor 😅
It's interesting seeing you use a chain bridle to sling the truck. Driving a newer integrated wrecker I can't effectively sling with it so I use a similar technique but with J hooks that are separate, and individually connected to the wheel lift, called a hard bar. I was expecting to see a typical rubber sling for something like this. Interesting touch with the soft straps for the safety cross as well. Looks like I've got some more tricks up my sleeve if need be.
Nicely done.
Have been enjoying your videos. Subscribed after watching you help Matt and Robby with that big snow rescue job!
that woman REALLY likes her pringles
Trail Mater got one hell of a take em home rig!
Another awesome recovery.
New suscriptor today... Fantastic Job !!!
👍 Another enjoyable video. 👍
Your getting better at this youtube stuff brother:) keep up the good work!
Nice video. And those headsets are so cool, helping a lot. Nice job my friend.
Yes, those headset comms are first class. You are the first I have seen use them and I think they improved safety so much when towing vehicles out of rough areas like you do. Good job, Rory!
Awesome recovery! Does make me worry a little about my brand new Gladiator though. I'm also over here newly from Matt and Paul's channels.
the thing to remember for longevity of your rig.... treat your foot pedal likes it's made of glass and the lower the gears you have the better. this gladiator problem is of a different nature, Jeep put the disconnect back in for fuel economy... they got rid of it for the Jk, brought it back for the JL and JT, so the company as a whole can meet the federal mandates of fuel economy.

Try to not get air under both front tires at a time. The landing is a problem then. I can say that with experience with my XJ. Same setup on axle.
Cool recovery!
Someone asked if he takes that tow truck into the rocks and stuff 🤣🤣🤣
Yah. Busted Jeep owner: "Really?" Cracked me up! Even a quick look here tells the rest of the story.
Umm, yeah, and comes back out of the rocks towing busted Jeeps!
