Hi bwilsk,
If you are having an issue with being unable to restore your iPhone and getting an error 53, you should first try the steps in the following article -
Resolve iOS update and restore errors in iTunes - Apple Support
If the issue persists, I would suggest using recovery mode to complete the restore. See this article -
If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Sincerely,
Brett L
