That was the real deal no take aways on that foreshore. You guys are making history that can never be replaced by high tech new stuff and will always be here to be seen. Incredible video love every bit of it even that city slicker camera guy. Love your channel thank you. Oh and Mara is a trooper.
Before I somehow stumbled on Trailmater and Matts Off Road and this channel, If I was standing on that spot and you told me any vehicle had went over that trail I wouldn't have believed you! Those two wreckers are amazing.
I was just thinking this if you told me that 1 one ton dually made it much less 2 I would have laughed but after watching these guys for years im a believer
I just got back from Moab and I can tell you that those trails are way worse than the video shows. And I agree, when i first saw a lot of those 'roads', I thought there is no way I'm going to be able to drive up that.
Rory is a beast of an off road driver. Trail mater is also amazing. I've seen videos of that man wheeling almost impossible roads all while towing a jeep without front wheels... he's amazing. One heck of a driver to learn from
Cliffhanger is the perfect name for that trail! Watching you two take those big girls out there for a dance was amazing and knowing the limitations of both rigs is even more exciting. Hats off to both teams for getting everyone out safely. 👍🍻
You can tell rory knows those trails well, but you can also see Eric's skill as a offroader by how well he followed rorys directions. I'm sure it made his day alot more fun having someone with the experience ,and the knowledge Eric has of the wreckers capabilities.
he knows who has experience here. a smart man who has no problem following direction from a rock crawler. Eric knows how to learn from others and will soon have the skills from his peers in the rock crawling scene. I could hang with this guy!!!!
I was a gunner for the EJS group. We went to the trail and held the group there for a long lunch to give Rory time to work on that jeep. They beat us out by a large margin. We finally got back to the trailhead about 6:45.
man the BSF recovery truck looked like it had no business on that trail but with incredible spotting from Rory it made thru and showed the capability of the BSF truck......awesome video
When I saw that trail I said Are you shitting me? Then I saw the two classic Chevy brutes and I said, oh, no problem. Two classic Chevys driven by two classic dudes? No problem. You guys handled that like NO PROBLEM. 👍👍👍👍👍
You couldn’t pay me enough to be out there yet here you are doing it for free! I also just realized That guy Rory is a heck of an asset to them folks! I don’t imagine AAA would have responded 🤣
AAA is a pyramid scheme! The ones getting screwed are the towers. The only ones with REAL money invested. A AAA vendor needs a full time person on staff just to make sure AAA doesn't screw them out of pay.
12:10 Oh my goodness, can’t imagine what’s going through Eric’s mind on this trail… well done BSF, you went the distance, Rory and Trail M8ter are the beast 👍🏻❤️🇷🇴👏🏼
You took that GMC to a new level on this one. Great video and you can be proud of just having the nerve and confidence to try just a tough trail. I imagine Rory has been there several times.
Amazing watching 2 very similar trucks with VERY different pedigrees tackling the same trail. Rory's out for a Sunday drive & Erik is thinking, "What am I doing out here?" Poor Seat Cover!
I would never ever take a late model truck offroad they're not built like the old Ford Chevy and Dodges. Those tow trucks are highly modified tho hence why they can do what they do.
Wow, I think you created your beast with the mindset of the trails you wrecker back home, and Rory did the same with the trails there... I think I would have just rode with him in his dually for the experience...
Love that hair-dew Eric, lol, how many times did you think, what have I gotten myself into?, lol, at least you were there with somebody that was very capable, and wouldn't leave you stranded, I'll bet your shackle-bolt broke on that big drop-off, your actually very lucky to get to go rock-crawling with somebody like Rory, great video guys, thanks for sharing.
That looked like it was a 8 or 12 trail for sure. The old Squarebody for as heavy as it is did damn good. Rory knows thoses hills and valleys like the back of his hands. Plus hes a wheelin fool...LOL..Hes very Good..Great Video..
I drove 1976-77 Chevy wrecker for a big dealership in Mich, so I know how heavy they are, of course yours is a little newer and a tad lighter but still heavy dry. The way you drove first time level 8 with that wrecker of yours with Rory's spotting is very impressive of with cliffs of 600- 1000 ft drop. Successful recovery trip to vehicle and back. Watching your trust in Rory was amazing and I love how that young lady with you in the wrecker smiling the whole time shows how much she trusts you.👍 The best part was that you Rory did it with good old made American iron.🇺🇸 Absolutely love the video. Subscribed and shared The best to you and yours.
OMG that looks so fun! The wrecker is doing so much better than you'd expect for such a heavy truck! I had to wonder why Rory didn't pull you from the boom winch to help lift you up/ over instead of a low pull harder into the rock wall? Either way only 1 assist on a trail rated 8 is good. Great content. Happy you finally made it out there safe after the bad roads & Chevy losing an engine. Keep the great videos coming & have a safe trip home!
We are a sq body family. We are blessed to have many no rust rigs. We love seeing your and Rory's sq body tow rigs. Rory is amazing, the knowledge he has is amazing. He recovered our/his friend Don off Coyote Cannon. To think of a sq body on that trails is unbelievable. Maybe we meet you next year at EJS, we will be there.
2 awesome trucks, a group of awesome ppl, and one bas ass trail.. That =s EPIC Hats off to yall for doing what yall do and having two of the most awesome rigs on the planet!
Thanks for an excellent video Eric and Rory! Who would have guessed that you could get the wrecker in and out of there when it was never built as a rock crawler.
I love the recovery videos. Anyone can get in a 4WD and go out and break their rigs. Only a select few can take heavy tow trucks out to recover them. My dually isn't a tow truck it's a tow pig and it weighs 11,000 lbs. Definitely not a offroad machine at all. Great job on the wheeling and recovery!!
Your tow truck showed amazing abilities despite its weight. I would have used up several pairs of underwear on that trail. You were definitely in good hands with the master of Mohab. Great job out there. Now you can conquer pretty much anything the rocks throw you. Stay safe and enjoy.
I would want rory to be my spotter any day he knows those trails like the back of his hand, Eric taking an 11,000 lb tow truck up and down those trails impressive driving some of those looked like it wasn't going to fit lol. Great job to all.
Mad props to the BSF Recovery crew. We all know you're out of your element there in Utah, but you didn't come all that way just to sit on the sidelines, wave your pom-poms and look pretty. You're an offroad wrecker for pity's sakes. No sooner do you blow into town maybe hoping for a quiet minute to catch your breath and settle in after the arduous journey West, but oh no. As soon as Rory heard you were local, he was ready to put you to work. Oh well. That's what you're there for. Work is play for BSF Recovery. The wrecker did very well on terrain it wasn't built for, as did the nut behind the wheel.
Awesome job out on a pretty narlley trail for sure!! I definitely don’t think I’d even have the guts to try a trail like that!! But you definitely made it look easy!! Now for Rorey that’s a totally different way to even look at things on the trail!! For some one that gets the option to run the trails when ever he would like to at 365 days a year that definitely gives Rorey plenty of practice to make it look like running a mall car in the mall parking lots!!! Lol!! Remember keep up all the hard work buddy it will definitely become much easier for you every chance you get the option to go out on moabs trails!!!
"I don't know if I could get in here without Rory spotting me". I would need a helicopter. All you guys are doing great. Thanks for letting me 'ride along. Didn't feel any of those big bumps from my easy chair.
I have seen Rory sporting many times. You can 😃 trust him to be professional. The trail Mater is his well crafted machine. Your recovery rig video 😂 was excellent 😉. The square body's ability was proven with this job
I can definitely see why Rory ditched the wrecker bed. The bed on your truck has to be a huge stress on the flexing frame where the cab meets the bed .
Eric, ya know, Rory will make a crawler out of you yet. I just want to see the ADD A WELDER video on your wrecker. I know you said it at least three times to yourself. I need one of those on my truck. Great job wheeling and videoing. And now I guess the wrecker is going on a diet? LOL BTW, If you have said it, I missed it. How do you like the steering and other upgrades you did to the wrecker?
That was amazing and I was pleased to see it all come off without serious incident. You did a great job considering the additional weight of your truck. Rory, well he’s as mad as a Hatter ha ha. He bombs along those trails as though he was on a minor dirt track. He is an awesome guy. I think that’s the hardest trail I have seen him tackle so far, its hard to tell cos he tackles so many difficult ones. It makes so much difference having a good spotter. I started off watching Matt’s off road, they introduced me to Paul and gang at Fab Rats, Robby Layton, Rory, Mischief Maker and now you. I’ll start following you as well, I've subscribed, and will look out for Rory’s take on this recovery. Thanks a lot Eric your off road skill were on show today and you passed with flying colours.
Wrecker performed excellent even with one busted shackle bolt. Hope y’all were not disappointed? That was exactly why y’all went!!!! What a trail, what a day, and great recovery!!!! Enjoyed
Eric, my money says Mara want's those rocks to practice rock crawling with her wrecker. Great video Mater. I like seeing him bounding down the rocks with no effort.
I’d have my hands full following Rory in my CJ. Watching you follow him in a wrecker is a masterclass in off-roading.
That was the real deal no take aways on that foreshore. You guys are making history that can never be replaced by high tech new stuff and will always be here to be seen. Incredible video love every bit of it even that city slicker camera guy. Love your channel thank you. Oh and Mara is a trooper.
If I was standing on that trail and someone said two square body duallys came through there I’d say NO WAY !
Dually tow trucks
Before I somehow stumbled on Trailmater and Matts Off Road and this channel, If I was standing on that spot and you told me any vehicle had went over that trail I wouldn't have believed you! Those two wreckers are amazing.
I was just thinking this if you told me that 1 one ton dually made it much less 2 I would have laughed but after watching these guys for years im a believer
Came to say

Nope, nope, nope. I'd be hard pressed to walk a lot of that. You're brave souls. Thanks for sharing.
The entire crews here are so extreme but yet so down to earth,humble and patient. Too freakin awesome!!!
Cliffhanger is the perfect name for that trail! Watching you two take those big girls out there for a dance was amazing and knowing the limitations of both rigs is even more exciting.
Hats off to both teams for getting everyone out safely. 👍🍻
You can tell rory knows those trails well, but you can also see Eric's skill as a offroader by how well he followed rorys directions. I'm sure it made his day alot more fun having someone with the experience ,and the knowledge Eric has of the wreckers capabilities.
It also shows how well that 9000 lb beast is built!
@@davep1445 very true, and like Eric said he made sure the bolts on his shackles were the weak link.that just shows people this ain't his first rodeo.
And he had spares on board.
he knows who has experience here. a smart man who has no problem following direction from a rock crawler. Eric knows how to learn from others and will soon have the skills from his peers in the rock crawling scene. I could hang with this guy!!!!
@@grogoncom you got that right .
I was a gunner for the EJS group. We went to the trail and held the group there for a long lunch to give Rory time to work on that jeep. They beat us out by a large margin. We finally got back to the trailhead about 6:45.
Man, they don't call it cliff hanger for nothing! What a gnarly trail. Hat's off to Rory for even doing recoveries out there. Mad respect.👍
I remember Matt saying, he is doing gnarly stuff, but, really, that is worse than imagined.
They should call the trail “ Nail Biter” 😬😲
Can't wait until MATT GETS DONE WITH HIS BEAST OF A WRECKER
I should just go ahead and take some stomach ulcer meds when I see Rory is involved. Mad props to ya'll!!!
man the BSF recovery truck looked like it had no business on that trail but with incredible spotting from Rory it made thru and showed the capability of the BSF truck......awesome video
Lower gears would have helped
Wild watching 2 wreckers on that trail! Amazing to see a full body full size wrecker tackle it so well!! Awsome driving!
Rory taking his truck on such trails is one thing, but a fairly standard GMC wrecker doing it, too, is pretty amazing.
It was epic to watch you guy together in the Moab, the legendary BSF team and Trailmater!!!
That was some awesome stuff. Thank you. That wrecker is one tough old girl !
Rory is a master. Eric you rocked it. Go team
When I saw that trail I said Are you shitting me? Then I saw the two classic Chevy brutes and I said, oh, no problem. Two classic Chevys driven by two classic dudes? No problem. You guys handled that like NO PROBLEM. 👍👍👍👍👍
You couldn’t pay me enough to be out there yet here you are doing it for free! I also just realized That guy Rory is a heck of an asset to them folks! I don’t imagine AAA would have responded 🤣
AAA is a pyramid scheme!
The ones getting screwed are the towers.
The only ones with REAL money invested.
A AAA vendor needs a full time person on staff just to make sure AAA doesn't screw them out of pay.
12:10 Oh my goodness, can’t imagine what’s going through Eric’s mind on this trail… well done BSF, you went the distance, Rory and Trail M8ter are the beast 👍🏻❤️🇷🇴👏🏼
Even that bypass was hammered @6:20
That was a pretty gnarly trail. Glad you all made it in and out without any major damage!!
the rebuilt motor passed the test with flying color! hardcore trails!!
It is all about the Spotter! Great video, always something to learn about the trail when Rory is there.
A HUGE thanks for taking all of us with you .
This is about as good as it gets. Two badass wreckers going places most 4X4s can't go! These boys have skills and serious tools for the job.
You took that GMC to a new level on this one. Great video and you can be proud of just having the nerve and confidence to try just a tough trail. I imagine Rory has been there several times.
Probly feeling like little kids inside ..ridding these wreckers on bad ass terrain like that . Friggin nice rigs boys 👍🤘❤🇨🇦
Amazing watching 2 very similar trucks with VERY different pedigrees tackling the same trail. Rory's out for a Sunday drive & Erik is thinking, "What am I doing out here?" Poor Seat Cover!
Rory is the master of Moab, but you did very well on unown and unusual terrain for you!
That was hell of a trail Eric!!!! I'm with Mara.....I woulda had my eyes closed!!!!
Excellent job. Eric you have the record for heaviest vehicle driven on the trail, doubt anyone will beat it.
I swear by the square body, the only tow rigs capable of doing stuff that other trucks are just not capable of. Great work
Any truck set up by Rory will go anywhere .
I would never ever take a late model truck offroad they're not built like the old Ford Chevy and Dodges. Those tow trucks are highly modified tho hence why they can do what they do.
I’m astounded those rigs cruised that trail. I did it in a Jeep lifted on 37’s and thought I was gonna die!
Looking at that trail, and I'm over here saying, "SO MUCH NOPE!" Nicely done! You're friggen brave... one might say you got some... nuts.
Big ones
Wow, I think you created your beast with the mindset of the trails you wrecker back home, and Rory did the same with the trails there... I think I would have just rode with him in his dually for the experience...
Love that hair-dew Eric, lol, how many times did you think, what have I gotten myself into?, lol, at least you were there with somebody that was very capable, and wouldn't leave you stranded, I'll bet your shackle-bolt broke on that big drop-off, your actually very lucky to get to go rock-crawling with somebody like Rory, great video guys, thanks for sharing.
That looked like it was a 8 or 12 trail for sure. The old Squarebody for as heavy as it is did damn good. Rory knows thoses hills and valleys like the back of his hands. Plus hes a wheelin fool...LOL..Hes very Good..Great Video..
For not being built as a rock crawler that thing does pretty good! That rebuilt motor sounds good.
Guys, this one is a home run. your truck amazes me. Mater in one thing but yours is very different, and you went there too!
Hey Eric !! With ALL that has happened to get out there & Then have another SMALL breakdown ,,Is something to remember for sure !! Mara
I have to say. Impressive driving Eric. Getting the wrecker in there with Rory i was on the edge of my seat the whole video. Just awesome
I drove 1976-77 Chevy wrecker for a big dealership in Mich, so I know how heavy they are, of course yours is a little newer and a tad lighter but still heavy dry. The way you drove first time level 8 with that wrecker of yours with Rory's spotting is very impressive of with cliffs of 600- 1000 ft drop. Successful recovery trip to vehicle and back.
Watching your trust in Rory was amazing and I love how that young lady with you in the wrecker smiling the whole time shows how much she trusts you.👍
The best part was that you Rory did it with good old made American iron.🇺🇸
Absolutely love the video.
Subscribed and shared
The best to you and yours.
Good job, Rory on a Sunday drive cruising on side of a cliff, I'm hanging onto the arm of my easy chair 😄
He makes it looks easy ! I was freaking out!
Whew, I was on the edge of my seat, my anxiety was at 99 just watching you guys wheel through there..Excellent video..
Good thing you freshed that old beast up eric she seems to be running good
Sketchy trail for that rig good driving
Trucks going where trucks can't go. Pretty good driving for a guy from the flat lands of Wisconsin!
Wow great driving Eric. That is a big heavy truck through some crazy trails.
OMG that looks so fun! The wrecker is doing so much better than you'd expect for such a heavy truck! I had to wonder why Rory didn't pull you from the boom winch to help lift you up/ over instead of a low pull harder into the rock wall? Either way only 1 assist on a trail rated 8 is good. Great content. Happy you finally made it out there safe after the bad roads & Chevy losing an engine. Keep the great videos coming & have a safe trip home!
Great driving Eric … that is one bad ass trail for sure

That =s EPIC Hats off to yall for doing what yall do and having two of the most awesome rigs on the planet!
Great driving Eric. Nerves of steel Well done indeed I wouldn’t tackle anything without Rory
Rebuilt engine and steering held up well - better you than me driving that trail, my vertigo was on edge just watching the video.
That trail is tough enough for a light vehicle. Taking a 9000lb wrecker over it is amazing. You couldn't have a better spotter than Rory.
Thanks for an excellent video Eric and Rory! Who would have guessed that you could get the wrecker in and out of there when it was never built as a rock crawler.
How many times did you say to yourself: What have I gotten into?
You guys and those trucks are nothing less than awesome!!!
I love the recovery videos. Anyone can get in a 4WD and go out and break their rigs. Only a select few can take heavy tow trucks out to recover them. My dually isn't a tow truck it's a tow pig and it weighs 11,000 lbs. Definitely not a offroad machine at all. Great job on the wheeling and recovery!!

Rory learned of those bumps the hard way! He is a good spotter as well.
Two of the best recovery crews!!
Thank you
wauw!! Epic steering with the wrecker!! I had a good time with a cup of coffee on Easter Monday morning!! Greetings from the Netherlands
I would want rory to be my spotter any day he knows those trails like the back of his hand, Eric taking an 11,000 lb tow truck up and down those trails impressive driving some of those looked like it wasn't going to fit lol. Great job to all.
Mad props to the BSF Recovery crew. We all know you're out of your element there in Utah, but you didn't come all that way just to sit on the sidelines, wave your pom-poms and look pretty.

I know the wrecker is a very capable machine but that was damn impressive. Would have never guessed it would do that.
You made it through places I didn't think you could!
Good God man it gives a whole new appreciation for what you guys do.... I drove a few easy trails in Moab. Nothing like what was In this episode.
Awesome job out on a pretty narlley trail for sure!! I definitely don’t think I’d even have the guts to try a trail like that!! But you definitely made it look easy!! Now for Rorey that’s a totally different way to even look at things on the trail!! For some one that gets the option to run the trails when ever he would like to at 365 days a year that definitely gives Rorey plenty of practice to make it look like running a mall car in the mall parking lots!!! Lol!! Remember keep up all the hard work buddy it will definitely become much easier for you every chance you get the option to go out on moabs trails!!!
Now that's something you don't see every day...two kick ass off-road dually wreckers side by side on PAVEMENT! Looks awesome!
You guys have some balls of steel wheeling those big rigs out there. Awesome stuff!!!
You got that right!
Obstacle course from hell! No mercy from that terrain! You guys are totally gutsy...damn! Awesome wreckers..totally impressed big time!
That's pretty awesome the wrecker is killing it in Moab
"I don't know if I could get in here without Rory spotting me". I would need a helicopter. All you guys are doing great. Thanks for letting me 'ride along. Didn't feel any of those big bumps from my easy chair.
Better than (almost) anything on television. Yet again, an amazing look at extraordinary scenery, and in old trucks with real engines.
I have seen Rory sporting many times. You can 😃 trust him to be professional. The trail Mater is his well crafted machine. Your recovery rig video 😂 was excellent 😉. The square body's ability was proven with this job
Love it, hey Jeep guys, let us show you how its done with a WRECKER! luv it....... but y'all make a great team, beautiful scenery.
Great ride of the wreckers !
Eric , watch this and observe how your frame '' Flexes , torques and twists . watch it will help navigate off road !
I can definitely see why Rory ditched the wrecker bed. The bed on your truck has to be a huge stress on the flexing frame where the cab meets the bed .
HOLD my beer..RORY's a Awesome spotter..Great job guys..And gals...
Eric, ya know, Rory will make a crawler out of you yet. I just want to see the ADD A WELDER video on your wrecker. I know you said it at least three times to yourself. I need one of those on my truck. Great job wheeling and videoing.
And now I guess the wrecker is going on a diet? LOL
BTW, If you have said it, I missed it. How do you like the steering and other upgrades you did to the wrecker?
Would never have gotten in and out of that trail without it!
Good thing you freshened up the engine before that wild trip!Wow!👍💯
Once again AWESOME!
I love this stuff!! Never gets old
Roary makes everything look easy when it isn't !
Should build some rock sliders to help keep the cab looking good
Holy cow! that is a drop off at 11:30!!! Great recovery!
Sure glad I was able to shake your hand Eric at EJS
You got to admit trailmater is the second coolest off-road record around
That machine of Rory's is an amazing rig, it just goes anywhere.
Eric, a 9,000 LB rig I thought the wrecker did very well. Two thumbs up!
Yep. Square body for life. Wow. Nice driving
Wow guy love how you guys work that tow truck, you have everything working good on your rig
That was amazing and I was pleased to see it all come off without serious incident. You did a great job considering the additional weight of your truck. Rory, well he’s as mad as a Hatter ha ha. He bombs along those trails as though he was on a minor dirt track. He is an awesome guy. I think that’s the hardest trail I have seen him tackle so far, its hard to tell cos he tackles so many difficult ones. It makes so much difference having a good spotter. I started off watching Matt’s off road, they introduced me to Paul and gang at Fab Rats, Robby Layton, Rory, Mischief Maker and now you. I’ll start following you as well, I've subscribed, and will look out for Rory’s take on this recovery. Thanks a lot Eric your off road skill were on show today and you passed with flying colours.
Thank you, and welcome aboard.
You won’t be disappointed Bernie…
Love the 30-minute video
Wrecker performed excellent even with one busted shackle bolt. Hope y’all were not disappointed? That was exactly why y’all went!!!! What a trail, what a day, and great recovery!!!! Enjoyed
You guys give me hope for my full size leaf sprung truck. (You and Rory are my heroes) all I need now is lower gears ,lockers ,bigger tires and guts.
You forgot 5he balls of steel.
Eric, my money says Mara want's those rocks to practice rock crawling with her wrecker. Great video Mater. I like seeing him bounding down the rocks with no effort.
haha! Great video! The wrecker got some serious "street cred" on that one! Nice Job.
Hat off to you! I really didn't think you would be going back up over that huge rock! Very impressive, well done!
