You Should Never Go Here! Off Road Waterfall Rescue

thank you so we got a call for a buggy that is broke down on a trail called Hanging Tree near Ephraim actually this is somebody a lot of you know this is Hillbilly's Bronx star Robbie called me and said it totally took it up there and beat it to death and we've got to go get it it's a beautiful morning like 65 degrees clear and sunny gonna warm up today got an early start like 6 a.m so we should get there and for lunch we could we brought our lunches again so this is back to back yesterday we were out on the Arizona strip why are we eating it well it kills tapeworms and pinworms I didn't have any worms and hookworms well I didn't know that today we're in Northern Utah North Central Utah I think there's a pin that says this is the geometric Center of Utah right next to where we're going to be oh nice we got Greg back there he's gonna be swinging the camera again we've got an opportunity to explore a great part of Utah that I've not seen before I am really excited about this Trail I've heard about this Trail I know that it's supposed to be really gnarly obstacle after obstacle but I have not been on it so looking forward to that and we get to eat lunch on the trail again Lizzy I didn't bring a peanut butter and jam sandwich this time over rice and teriyaki chicken so the next stop is Robbie's shop we're going to be picking him up they're going to be offering support for today's events it's going to be a good time we'll get them out all right we are here at Leighton auto body and he's from Utah Robbie is supposed to be here getting ready for us but I just texted him and he said that he's busy doing other stuff that is so Robbie I think I'm just gonna block this street because I got no other choice hey there's Robbie hey kids good job how are you good that's for you well I heard you done it good it done itself good yeah and he's not even going with to get it so what's wrong with it I never even no steering no steering no transfer case but no four-wheel drive and no steering okay so there's no drive no there is Drive there's no way two wheel oh so it has rear wheel drive that'll help yeah but no steering and no four-wheel drive it would have steering sometimes unconveniently and it'd go whatever Direction it wanted is it full Hydro no that's the problem with this it's just normal steering this is what finally stopped us once it blew that out then we had nothing it blew it out it was a power steering pump and gearbox got so hot when I poured water on it it was gone instantly boiled it off okay so you cooked it we'll put that on put some fluid in it and at least try to have a tiny bit of assist yeah well we can always just pick it up there's a couple spots you're gonna let it down and winch it everybody always says that well I hope you don't have to it's like a 20-foot waterfall with water running down it and it's like this it's such a fun trap but we don't know if we're going up or down but once we get it are we up that's what we're gonna figure out once again yeah it'll be a long coming back down yeah is this three course without knowing anything I would say that the brakes work brakes work phenomenally oh great all right so we're heading up here to the trailhead Robbie's showing us the way he's got his Can-Am I've heard stories about Can-Ams and razors flipping on this Trail all the time like it's supposed to be really aggressive I'm a little bit nervous a lot of you guys don't know this but on top of being cheap and lazy I am also a big chicken and maybe that's why I'm a chicken got the butterflies yeah yeah it's just me my crew Robbie's crew and the wrecker going up that canyon to rescues something broken and it's a bad one it's a baddie huh it's a fatty come look at this Robbie this thing has an interesting situation I'm just heating all this up so bad these wires are just blasted hot they're just too just close to them headers so this morning I got up early and I wrapped this all up with cheap tin foil we're gonna see if it makes it she needs some serious heat shields yeah so I'm gonna we're gonna do that these aren't the these headers aren't in their final form we'll see how this goes I'm a little bit proud of that that look looks Factory to me that looks like a delicious tinfoil dinner looks like dinner's on the record tonight one of these things is not like the others one of these things just isn't the same now it's time to play our game [Music] we're gonna call it tipped over tree Trail I've never been on a trail like this yeah they're pretty unique [Music] so Tom and I were just jabbering away I hit this rock at an incredible rate of speed and we did a terrible snake bite for this tire we got a hole right there and a hole right there when all the air went out so the plan right now is to send a razor back to town to get a tube a couple of patches and then inside there while you're doing that I'm gonna try to get this ring out off get the bead lock out of there just be ready for when you're back perfect well I've done it good this time I was I was picking on hillbilly you know what it makes it funner now we have an adventure at least we have food and water and good company some of our good companies leaving dang it I think we want the Rock [Music] foreign one that may slip down in there pretty good we'll try that one more time that was a lucky one this time I'm gonna do it good okay getting some dirt in there but what are we gonna do about it there's nothing we can do this is some real caveman stuff right here kind of want to keep this kind of clean okay so set up set it like this on top of that back wheel of course we don't have a shovel of course that was so stupid to fly up there like that they're just gabbing not paying attention throttle to the floor so then this has to come out like this and I hope we can do it kind of spin out of everybody all right all right we got this all prepared we got it taken apart we had to use rocks and sticks and it was pretty brutal but it came apart so we're just waiting for them to get back with the parts that we think will get us out of here so we had us some lunch we're sitting in the shade drinking some Gatorade not a sponsor no not a sponsor Tom's sleeping on the job [Music] okay we went to Napa and cleared them out of stuff we have like five different tubes I brought a grinder we got a scraper we have all the juices Give me the give me the grinder and we'll all just start doing this we'll get this boot on what kind of valve stems on the tube [Music] [Applause] [Music] this one looks like the bad one but it's not well it's fast it's going sideways through the cord it doesn't yeah but it doesn't go all the way through on the inside this other one does there's a big one going to get both of them at once yeah this big one is big put it on babe go big or go home the blue area is not in a whole bunch bigger than that pack so we've got to be pretty accurate with it on the outside okay let's put a tiny bit of air in that tube not much stuff it in there first maybe we could talk on purpose and then bring it down these are pretty straight they have almost no taper so if they're crooked they're too big to fit let's put a tiny bit more air in it and roll it a little bit more there's one under the without losing the middle [Music] so there's a theory that we'll be able to pop this tire on the bead with the proper with a little bit but we can't do it all the way shut with it because the tire will be pinched in it okay I'm gonna have to feed the hose in the screwdriver to hold it on that's the plan you can push it straight in it goes straight in it won't go straight in because I've got a rotor oh oh we were talking about not putting rotors on this too dang it you're close okay here where's something that I can go from this oh okay put it put it back where it was [Music] right well pull it your way okay don't move back to this thing don't move it Robbie oh we were on okay you're on we're airing up I'm not moving my hand until we have pressure in it do you have the Stop Standing deeper thingy to tighten it up oh it is tight oh cool man yeah because I couldn't see it but you were messing around us okay Tom I need you to kick this tire something huge another month it was a monster truck tube forty seven five six and five four okay is this getting anything in it let's go with it the only way the air has to escape out of this tire is around this valve stem yeah because it's completely sealed so that's where that air is coming from [Music] okay put it back on it I sure hope that's the sound of residual air is this the one that had the cut in it already yeah it has a cat I think I purposely mounted the spare for the left or for the right hand side because of that reason this is the tire that gets there oh so it's mounted on a wheel oh it's ready to go oh that's smart but with as good of a trail repair as this is you'll never need to spare enough well because this is such a quality repair all right with the help of all these good people look at how many of them came to help us we were able to get this tire back on the wheel I feel like it's in good shape yeah it's holding air it looks good you got more air in and out than you had before so yeah we lost the bead lock so we compensated with more air and we're gonna drive smarter not harder and we are back on the trail that was a long delay there as we repaired that tire and we've just started and this thing is pretty gnarly right off the get-go giant rocks Boulders really twisty and it's tight it's gonna be a challenge for the wrecker to get through here Once Bitten Twice Shy definitely uh turning up the caution Trails become increasingly boring as we as we do that [Music] [Music] well now that we're not popping tires I feel like we're dominating the trail I'm still pretty nervous about popping tires but we're doing it it's working it's pretty amazing driving for a chicken yeah I'm a tough chicken talking to Nick Shawn he told me that beyond the shade of doubt this is the largest vehicle to ever go through Hanging Tree and he's never seen a wrecker here so that might be a little bit of uh evidence for this actually being the world's largest off-road record this is definitely a trail for narrow Vehicles without the rear stair there's no way we would be getting through here yeah we're using the rear stairs right no question about that um do you see how sketchy this is yeah I'm trying to capture the sketch [Music] how did that one feel it's just it was bad loose dress it was really bad you did a little Tippy at all from that side yeah you're just looking down into this waterfall yeah yeah that's crazy I think that's why they call us the Hanging Tree because you typically would tie a roof off to that tree to drive around that oh my goodness oh look what's in the bushes here [Music] there it is okay this is where the plan stops and the work begins agreed that was let's pull it up here if we can get steering back which I don't know there's something wrong yeah oh yeah steering box is broke power steering pumps junk we're gonna put a line on it and fill it full of fluid so at least if it doesn't have anything yeah put the hose on let's see what it does okay it's the first bad lines winch I've ever had and it literally lifted the back tires off and was pivoting on one tire tell me what's moving [Music] you're moving side to side a little bit you don't have a ton of triangulation I don't see anything broken okay [Music] [Applause] so we need two of these [Music] okay you're wrong just pick it up and then we'll figure [Music] out so I think last time we went around here and then um across and then cross them with those long ones [Music] so yeah the the biggest shortcoming of this wrecker is that it's just not done yet do we want to chain this axle up I think it's worth it let's just see how it goes if it becomes a problem we'll change it all right we're all hooked up here and it's time to head on out of here we're just going to take it easy [Music] [Music] [Music] foreign I was worried about the boom hitting it but Bronx Stars not got a regular hood so not too big a deal I'd like to point out that the record is doing exactly what we designed it to do it's just walking through here it's going good [Music] that one's crazy but they say that's not the big one there's a bigger one up here that was awesome I man I just this is I love this truck [Music] [Music] [Music] foreign [Applause] [Music] [Music] [Music] star died which is understandable it was standing straight up like this it probably ran out of fuel holy smokes this is a cool Trail rob you can't tell anybody about this truck no because everybody want to show up good job that was so awesome so is that in the last big enough so now we just have to get out of a mud hole so yeah we're basically at the top 54 inch tires so they still kind of help you'll dig down to the base and get through it yeah that was cool that was awesome it's funny because when this is empty like the trail was that was difficult to hook that onto it just it's just doing the record does record stuff doing its job and it's doing it well man and that pre-trail trail repair I would say a plus for sidewall repair look it's down there that's holding together we got our our hobo dinners in there and there's a big difference in the temperature of the floorboard so we know so it works it let me slap you around so we know that we can fix the heat problem we did it with with tin foil so we could probably do it with some stainless steel and some heat wrap [Music] [Music] I just found some trail damage right here exhaust tip starting to get a little rainy on us we don't have any windshield wipers oh we actually have wipers we have no way to make them white yeah though windshield wiper motor is in a bag back in the shop but we have a windshield they don't even have a windshield how you doing Greg that was great shower [Music] [Music] [Music] hey all I gotta say all right that Tire's good to go I we were talking about it we're gonna pull that patch off put a glue tread on it and just run it boy just did that yeah and I'm not gonna do anything that sketchy again except for when you come back how's that rope look it's got a pretty good wear spot up in here I would like to sorry that's where it was yeah that was a long drive yeah that's where it always ends up too so that that's got all the jobs on it right now every few months that needs to get tied cut the tide back yeah and that'll keep this so was it a very struggling Trail for this oh man no of course we almost climbed the last waterfall I had the front wheels completely up over but they said I didn't have my lockers on and it and I stalled that out right right as he was topping it and then we shot down there like a bobsled how do you think it made me feel seeing this thing coming at me excited yeah excited okay look at this tire oh my gosh so Matt did his thing again today he was like he just has this attitude that I've been doing so much with so little for so long that today I feel like I can do anything with nothing and he did it he changed out this tire or he took it apart patched that thing from the inside out pulled out the bead lock put it back together with a socket and a pile of rocks the guy's impressive man you gotta appreciate that I worked in a tire shop for a lot of years when I was younger and I patched and plugged a lot of tires but I have never seen it done with so few tools that was pretty impressive today we made the impossible possible again thanks for watching on the road again we got Hillbillies Bronco on the road again just can't wait to give it back to my friend and I can't wait to get on the road again hillbilly broke his rig he took it up to Hanging Tree the dick he broke his drive shaft they had uh almost everything else he broke his driveshaft like a little twig we can't wait to get on the road again
