As a Canadian resident who doesn't do hardcore offroading. My biggest concern is getting stuck in mud, I use a long piece of snowmobile track. It's hard rubber and flexible so it's no good for a few of these situations, but it's got unbelievable traction.
@ED-es2qv Жыл бұрын
Nice. I used mine once to turn around in about 6ft of snow, where the road ruts I was in were built up, meaning if you backed off the road you would sink. I used my rear winch to pull the back out of the icy rut and onto the max trax, then I drove back into the ruts pointed the other way. Saved me backing up 5 miles.

I've seen them mounted on the roofs of 4WDs permanently , maybe for use in the shopping centre car parks etc . They must be some kind of symbol for the die-hard 4WDriver , they will perish in the hot sun and be useless when they break when used , put them away till needed in an off-road situation . Nice handy tips Ronny :-)

I think you, Ronny and team, should make up some basic kits that viewers can purchase from your merchandise store (I don't know if you have one). Like a beginners kit, 2 trax, snatch rope, hard & soft shackles, tree protector and a hand winch. You know what people need and could put comprehensive kits together for all needs and I am sure many suppliers would be on board. Then the viewers could rely on your integrity to source the best quality/value for money. Matt's Off Road Recovery do a similar thing with snatch packs and tie downs. I get around in an old Forester but at the tip today was looking at a jacked up dual cab with chunky tyres and thought I could put money down that I do more mudding than he does but I do get over confident at times and a simple grab bag on the roof would be great esp. with your logo on it. Chasing the troopy was funny as F$%^ :)

And the bottle jack problem. I haven't yet found a bottle jack that allows enough movement to raise a 4WD high enough out in the field without having to do some extra stuff. To get one that will raise a raised 4WD high enough to swap a tire means carting around something that weighs 4 tons !

Carry two or keep the stock one (which are normally crap especially 70 series) use the first one to compress the spring/lift the axle and then the bottle jack to actually lift the vehicle.
@chrissybabe8568 Жыл бұрын
@@MrNeroDiablo I wasn't worried about using it on a Toyota. However I have found that the best solution is the OEM scissors jack as it is quite a bit larger than the usual car jack. I also bought the middle sized bottle jack from SCA but found afterwards it should have been the larger of the 3 and this one weighs 4 tons (not really but it is still a lot heavier - so much so that I have gone off the bottle jack idea).

I'll find a use for the bottle jack one of these days.
