I just received an xt1053 with 4.4.3 and I can't seem to find a way to root this. Any help would be much appreciated. :)

yes. finally figured it out. wow, what a pain in the a$$. couldn't find the damn mfastboot file to flash recovery.

Can you let me know how to root? I am also on 4.4.3 TMO when I use towel pie root it works until I restart my device I can't find a way to make it stick.. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Did you not read anything in the TowelPieRoot thread? The answer to why you can't get root to stick is in that thread. The answer to your question is unlock your bootloader.
