Now that's how you sell Electric Winch! We are heading to Trek this week and were trying to figure out how this highlift jack winching works thanks for the Demonstration!

Jeez Simon, you earned your Thumbs Up on this one. Very interesting and a great demo of manual recovery, thanks.

Thanks for the demo - its a lot of work and can be very dangerous, but when and if it becomes necessary, then its necessary!

This video is much appreciated and very well done. Sure beats the official how to video from hi lift Jack. I have much more confidence in using this kit now. Thank you.

Lol bought that kit years ago never used it thank God for winches 😁

Excellent explanation? In principal its similar to how a linesman would clime a telegraph pole. Clamp - tension - ascend. then again on the other foot (chain) This is similar to the method i have used in the past. Only i do two other things 1: i have a large heavy duty D ring on the " your truck" end of the hi-lift bar to feed the main chain through (on the 2nd hole in tjhe bar). It keeps the stresses more parallel to the hi-lift bar. And stops the chain pulling away from the jack bar 2: On the "your stump" end of the hi-lift i have a heavy duty D ring with two bushes through the last "top" hole on the jack bar. Cheaper, more flexible and easier to get anchor strap tighter. Nice clear explanation...

Thanks heaps mate

Thanks for the useful information, I think you need to put a shackle on the chain at the bottom, there will be a straight line-tree-belt-hi jack-chain

Hi I can’t find part 3 looking forward to watching it, big fan

I bought from arb Jack mate. Which puts the hi lift Jack in line. There video on KZfaq inline pull for hi lift

Another AvE viewer by the sound of it

It’s a big pain in the behind. And even more work with the 48” jack. I like the extended handle, not sure I like the telescopic feature though. Less feedback on how much tension is in the system.

lol we need to see a winch demo with a snatch block involved

The original HiLift 10mm chain in the G43 class has a load capacity of 1800kg, the 8mm chain in the G80 class has a load capacity of 2000kg The thinner one is more durable and lighter

Hi. Great demo. Just wondering wondering how you get the pin from the 1t bow shackle through the 8mm chain link? The Crane and Gorilla shackle pins are about 10mm on the thread end so don't go through. Are you using a different brand that has a smaller diameter pin on the 1t shackle?

What essential oils do you use in your beard? BTW great video.

It would be interesting to know how many people have or use an extension handle. I notice this vehicle has no front winch on it.. so in your opinion which method would you use, the winch or the hi-lift jack? Great video.

Жалко что лайк можно ставить только один раз .

Where do you get the handle extension?

Just get a winch.

give it a thumbs down twice! haha
