Whats the best thing you've pulled out wheeling?

[BRAPP]

Best thing you've pulled out? Pics would be nice. Thought of this tonight as I was pulling out this girl im seeing in her Hummer H3.

well my story. I was out wheeling today in the school parking lot climbing snow banks, everyone has been saying latley Im gonig to get my truck buried but I told them my truck doesnt get stuck all day today..well tonight that changed haha.

Girl called and asked for a favour..her and our friend amy were out wheeling on a dirt road and were stuck in a deep snow drift. H3 threw service traction control right before they got stuck and it wouldnt spin a front wheel or lock into 4 wheel. Thought no dig deal..hooked up the strap to pull them out but no dice..back up and gave a little yank and nothing..one more yank and now im not going anywhere? Opened my door and im pushing snow with it. Well i slid over into deep snow. I was spinning full posi but couldnt go forwards or back, but the tow strap was too tight to get off my hitch. I called my buddy to come with his Z71 and help me out..while he was coming i got my hitch out and tried to rock out, but i just stopped when the snow was to the top of the 33's on the drivers side. he ended up having a hard tie pulling me out, then i gave the hummer a good yank after and had no troubles. Dang i wish i brought a camera, but i figured it was an easy stuck with the girls haha. oh well.

Lets hear your stories.

[shane_k1500]

best thing i ever pulled out was a bumper off of a ford ranger haha. My friend had an old ranger parts truck parked behind his house , she was rotten to the britches. The only thing that wasen't rotten on 'er was the bumper , so we hooked on the bumper and not 5 seconds later "BRAP!" Found me self a ford bumper not 4 feet from me rear of me truck. Thunder **** i said. (note I said bumper , because you dont tow anything much bigger when you have 38 michelins and 3.42 gears)

Not a wheeling story but ...

A couple of years ago I was out wheeling with some buddys in the snow on 4 wheelers. On my way back home I was approaching my corner when I saw this truck almost vertical in a ditch. As I grew closer I saw that it was my 65 year old grandpa in his brand new duramax. I'm telling you the truck was on its nose and straight in the air. Well, I pulled him out and He said that he better just go back to the house...his house was maybe a 1/2 mile away LOL. What happened was the road was icy and his truck had those panzy 245 HT tires on it. He went to turn and slowly slid into the ditch. Thankfully he didn't do any damage.

That same trip my buddy got my truck stuck in a 5 foot deep ditch full of snow....or at least my passanger side. It was clear up to the mirror. The sad thing is that a ford ranger pulled me out.

snow will get you everytime! tonight it didnt help i was one a base of pure ice. but over this winter i've pulled out 2 suburbans, 2 civics and a jetta from ditches. nothing to brag about but its always nice telling people what you've removed from the ditch

The best wheelin storie was 2 years ago when I went up to my Buddha house. As I pulled in the driveway I noticed 4 or 5 kids standin in the driveway. When I got out they asked if we could pull them out. So we drove out to check the situation. When we got to the end of the road where it turned to snowmachine trail they told us to keep going. We got over the first hill and could see their dodge dakota stuck clear up on a hill and a v10 excursion stuck pulling it out. So we went and got a dually 4x4 case and plowed for 2 hours. We got the excursion pulled out easy enough but when we got to the dodge we chained on we told the kid to hold the breaks. Well he slammed on the gas and rear ended the tractor so hard it totaled the bed of the truck. The coldest longest 3 hours ever but it sure was funny

[gubernosky]

went to an spring creek offroad park in houston one day. rode the quad around then decided to drive my truck around. mind you i drive a 94 cclb 2wd w/ no locker, and this was before the lift, anyways i drive out to the "beach" and get there and there's a lifted jeep trying pull out a lifted dodge truck. i hook up to the jeep, go 3 clicks on the e-brake and just pop'em out and he was on his way. the dodge guy was no way you can pull me out, hooked up to him go 3 clicks and yanked on'em twice,on the third yank he moved but didnt go anywhere, so i let the tailgate down and put the strap on my gooseneck hitch to get the weight on the axle pulled tight and gave it some gas to get'er moving and pulled him right out. both guys were amazed that my truck was able to do that(so was i !) it was a good day, the next day i got stuck in my own yard and had to get the tractor to pull me out.

As ice and snow goes, I've pulled out a few, nothing notable. Last winter a guy got stuck on this one small gravel road, not very deep. Nobody could get to him except me, only guy with a "big" truck. So, no problem, I blast through and make ruts, get to him, we hook up a couple chains (I know, I know. Chains = bad, but its all we had and it wasn't a major pull, shallow snow and mostly an ice cake underneath, no big deal) well I hook onto him, give a little tug, nothin. Okay, a little more pull, don't want to push it too much since all we have are chains, so I give her a little whirl... bam, stuck. I was on a pure sheet of ice, and traction was on vacation for me. No big deal, I made ruts, somebody else can get in and pull me. Well, the snow was deep enough behind me that nobody could get close enough, and we were out of chain to reach me. The chain on my front end was taunt, so ultimitly we ended up pulling the cotter key and knocking the hook off the chain. Then of course the guy that went to pull me out got stuck, since his manual kept popping out of gear. Thankfully we had one more truck behind him. Kinda funny, seeing a line of FSC's stuck in a row, where we shouldn't have been stuck. That ice will get you, and it's a major pain.

Best pull I ever did, easily, was a little 4 door Rodeo style SUV dingy, and a FSC behind him. We were down near the bottoms, in a path a truck's width carved out of the trees. Going back and forth, I was literally just plowing over small trees in front and behind me, since I sure as hell wasn't backing up the whole way, and there was no other way to go but through. Anyways, this kid in a mid 90's Chevy was goin down this trail, it had just rained, but most of it was pretty dry and grassy, til the little SUV thing in front of him found a mud puddle. He made it a ways through, but the FSC wasn't so lucky. Got in just enough to get all the way in the one mud spot on the whole dang trail and got buried. And I mean buried, he was layin frame, stock FSC leaving 4 ruts that went up to my knees, and he was going nowhere. I got in there to a good sturdy dry spot and gave her hell. Nothing, so again, and again, and again, 4Lo and them 35's were screamin eagles, over and over and I couldn't get him to budge. At first he hooked it to his bumper, til he tweaked that. Then he decided to hook it to his spare tire crossmember. Bad idea. I was pullin, and pullin, and WHAM! free!! a little too easy actually... well, I ended up ripping out his entire crossmember back there, clean off the frame.

So let's tally up the score: one for the bumper tweak, one for the crossmember souvenir, oh, and one for his ignition. The kid lost his keys on the trail out of his sweatshirt pocket, so we ended up spending a good chunk of time just breaking into his ignition tumbler with a couple screw drivers and whatever we could pound them in with. So here we are, I've just tried my damndest to get him out, and he didn't budge. So we get to thinkin. Well, it's tractor time. So a little while later, we procure a front wheel assist tractor. Alright, this aughta get er easy! No. Not even. After widening the path getting to him, we proceeded to hook up chain to the bucket. As hard as that tractor tried, that truck was a big anchor. So we cut some slack out and hooked the chain real close to the bucket, and tried to lift the ass end up. Well, we had the rear of that truck 10 feet off the ground and still nothing. Wow, this ain't good. All in all, we went from 11pm until 5am trying to get this truck out. The truck's ruts were deep on their own, but the ruts the front tires on that tractor were far worse. We left nice wide, deep ruts on all corners of that tractor, but the front ruts were at least to my knees, and we had almost got that tractor stuck. Had we done that, I think that trail would have gotten really wide as we took a dually tractor or a large combine down there. So after we were all weary and red eyed trying to get that out, we had one more truck to pull out. Yay.

So the next day, after a decent amount of sleep, we went back down there and hooked up about 100-150 feet of chain from my truck to that little SUV, after all, I didn't want to get close after that tractor left ruts that would swallow my 35's and wouldn't notice. So I stick it in 4Lo and am waitin for a thrashin again. He signals he's ready and I let my foot off the brake... and we are rolling... in 4Lo at idle, I pulled him out of where he was stuck. That was probably the best (or worst, depending on how you look at it) recovery I have done. I've done a few pull outs, but by far that one takes the cake for the biggest PITA.

[ryan_thompson87]

Turned off the highway to find A 98 Z71, A 98 Ford, an 03 Crew cab GMC, an 02 ext. cab GMC, and the to top it all off an 05 Cummins Quad Cab Long Box dually 1welding rig with both his welders and plasma cutter and torches in the back buried in the ditch on either side of the road.I knew the guys. The dually was stuck up to the top of the box. I pulled all the them out, and the dually three times (he kept hitting the ditch) broke two ropes,

Had alot of fun. I really wish I could get pictures of it Because to get them out I had to make it through the ditch they were stuck in then I hooked on and pulled them into the field and they just drove out the approach when they were done.

The Dodge I actually had to pull through both ditches (out of one ditch across the road and through the other ditch)

My truck impressed the hell out of me. And the other guys too, we all went back and had some drinks at the guy in the fords' shop.

Sub'd for more stories.

[easttxryda]

i love bragging because i always have to pull everybody with my 4.3(sig) lol. i think the most awesome pull i've ever had was once when my buddy's jeep was stuck on a pretty bad road in a deep ditch on the side. i went down the road which was really narrow, passed him a little and reversed back to him, i couldnt get perfectly centered but i thought hey i'll get him. first little tug my back tires slid into the ditch, with him, i just kept on it and turned the wheels full lock to the left and floored it. I was just going down the road completely sideways pulling him out. My motto is if i start going into the ditch hold on, because i'm not slowing down to get stuck in it. A few weeks ago when it snowed i ended up bulling my buddies 03hd as well as a ranger, i always f around afterwards... Man that v6 sounds pretty good doesnt it? lol

[shane_k1500]

I'm surprised you towed a 03hd ... I couldnt pull a weed out the ground with my 1989 4.3 and 38's.

[nick613]

My buddy decided to drive into a mud hole in his stock 2.3l rwd mazda pickup thing... Pulled him out very easily then drove through the mud and went back to work.

[easttxryda]

I'm surprised you towed a 03hd ... I couldnt pull a weed out the ground with my 1989 4.3 and 38's.

lol thats funny, my 4.3 has some balls i guess

[ryan_thompson87]

LOL that's an oxymoron. You more than likely have gears, he had 3.42s, IIRC.

[easttxryda]

yep i'm runnin 4.10s and 33x12.50 s i'd never run 38's on a 4.3. let alone with 3.42s lol. my tires are a little too small, but no bigger meats unless it gets bigger under the hood.. I'm tempted but i'd rather keep the engine i have right now, than it kickin the bucket soon.. might go tall and skinny tho..

[BRAPP]

my all time favourtie is some guy in a stock cherokee was in the quad trails driving through on a dirt road in spring. pretty positive he was going to plant some dope because he was offely sketchy. anywyas. my brother was out riding with his buddies and they found him stuck at 9 am. at 3pm they went back and he was still stuck so we came home and got my brothers truck..wheeled back to where he was to give him a yank. naturally no trailer hitch in so buddy wrap the strap around his bumper..after 4 yanks the bumper was off. finally wrapped around the frame and got him out. buddy said he'd give us 40 bucks once he went to the bank..so he followed us to our house to know where to drop it off..havent seen the guy since. what a surprise

[shane_k1500]

fooled me , tires on sig look a lot bigger then 33's. Gad damn bottom angle picture shots. But yea , I had big plans to swap a 454 and SFA on my stepside , just never got around to it. Figured buying an old 1984 3/4 ton would be a smarter move.

[easttxryda]

wait so the sig truck has a 4.3???

[BRAPP]

well the buddy that pulled me out three days ago gave me a call tonight to return the favour. he was stuck on the same road and pretty much same spot. took a few pictures this time. basically he just bottomed out in the snow because is was friggen deep. problem was his all terrains floated over the first layer of snow, but when i went to back down the road to hook on him my trail diggers, well just dug to the bottom so i had to go about 500 ft with my truck bottoming out. well that didnt work so i had to pull him from reverse. problem two. he has yet to put his hitch on his truck so he had to hook onto his bumper..well i didnt a toll on that haha. bent into his box. dont think it did any damage and the bumper should straighten out.

Here are a couple pics of the passenger side. the drivers side was up to my knees and over my boots so i didnt feel like trudging through to get a pic. im uploading a vidoe on youtube of it right now too.

I haven't had the chance to pull much out, but it took two trucks to pull me out of a hole one day. i was hooked up to my buddies 1985 RCLB, 350, 4" lift and 31" mudders and hooked up to him was my other buddies 1993 ECLB, 454, 3" BL and 35" A/Ts, took both of them to pull me out (Dad's 1995 ECSB 350)

[easttxryda]

finally almost got my truck stuck last night.. I've gotten it stuck when i didnt realize my 4wd wasnt working... never gotten it stuck in 4wd tho.. I was scrappin metal down a muddy road, it was pretty bad still rainin a bit.., but i just drove slowly, hit the gas when i needed it, stayed on top and didnt make any ruts.. then my idiot freakin friend decided to come down there in his stock 2500hd, and he doesn't know how to "drive" on the mud i swear... he stays on the gas way too much,, he slips and slides everywhere cuz he pushes it too much, he doesnt just drive, hit it when needed. he ends up almost gettin stuck trying to turn around and ruts it all up... i had just been cruzin over the mud not leavin any ruts, now right where i have to turn around is all rutted up.. freaking back up, turn and then just start burying lol... ended up puttin it and 4lo and gettin out, i left huge ruts they were past my knee lol, Bitch try to go through my ruts is what i told him.. lol some ppl even tho they are your friends can piss you off, i swear he's an idiot sometimes.. maybe ill take pics later

Last Summer a few guys from work figured it'd be a great idea to go out wheel'n by themselves. His mid 90's Dodge with 40 inch Ground Hawgs and ended up burring this thing up to the frame. They found a little spot that was next to a small creek, the spot was full of silt and wash from the big rains back in June and was still fairly wet. They went through it several times before they ended up burring his truck. Of course they call me that night, it was too dark so they left it out there over night and I went back the next day to help them get it out. I've seen people stuck before but never burried like this! They were dug so far down the holes where the tires were filled with water from the creek. I hooked up to the back of the truck and yanked on it from the other side of the trees, and we used a winch mounted to a tree and powered by another guy S10 Balzer to absorb the slack and hold the truck so I could get another bite at it. It ended up taking about 10 good hits at it to get the dang thing out. Enjoy the pictures......

[Harv06]

My best so far has been a F 450. A guy I work with was taking a load of lumber to a job site and got sucked into the ditch by a good size drift. It took about 3 good yanks but my truck got it out ( it's a 03 f-150), I was surpirsed. The F 450 is worthless in the winter though 2wd dulley with a 6.0 powerstroke that is in the shop every other week.

[traxxboy]

The must stuck things I have winched was a f-150 with 9 inches of lift on 36x14.50 claws and a avalanche on 35's that were both buried to the frame overnight. The two biggest truck's my little 4.3l has pulled have been a 70's ford 5-150 mud truck with no bed on 36 TSl's and a 90's dodge ram 1500 on 37 ssr's. Both were pretty well buried.

[brandonj]

one for you guys(chevy pulling a ford) to make a long story short my dads PSD ended up in the ditch, northern,mi in the dead of winter=lots on snow anywayy call my grandpa shows up with his 92 half to chevy pulls out a fullsize 4door psd lol

[dozerboy]

I've pulled a few trees out of the ground..... We hook the biggest one about 15' up and I yanked on it several time. My buddy said my tires came 3' off the ground, but we had plenty of wood for the bone fire.

[mrbray101]

One day at work one of my co workers got a skid stuck down in a muddy area. I didn't know it at the time but my boss calls me and wants me to come pull him out. I get around to where they are at and I see his truck, a GMC half ton similar to mine with really wide pro comp x terrains on it stuck about 20 feet from where the skid was stuck. I pulled him out first, of course spraying his truck with as much mud as possible, then backed into his ruts and pull the skid out. It wasn't really stuck too bad but it was nice to pull the boss out and embarrass him a little.

[big-boi77]

After prom last year me and a bunch of friends went to a mud hole we tore up alot.. it had rained alot and my tahoe, a 97 z71, and a 99 4 door hoe made it barely. it was downhill from there i pulled out a dodge dakota and then i tried to pull an explorer out but i didnt put the chain on and this guy put it on the bumper and off came the bumper. we got it out bout an hour later.

[gravedigger472]

last night got a calla 'bout 11:30. says got a car stuck on the side of the road. figure no biggie, quick yank and on my way. The kid walked home, so i went his apt and drove to the spot. Turns out its a mid 90's wrangler that just got a 4" lift and 33" mud terrain tires, not sure what kind. But instead of being "right on the side of the road" he wanted to try out his new tires and lift in the snow. He drove over a snow drift and into a farmers field. He made it about 150feet before it sunk. I get out and assess the situation, try to drive around the back of him, but quickly realize that's not gonna work. There is about 2 feet of snow, and hes buried down to the frame. Looking for another line, i find a smaller snow bank to make tracks through. Its an uphill pull through a snowbank, in really crusty snow, not the fluffy kind. I back up, perpendicular to the front of the jeep, and hook up my 30' tow strap. put it in 4x give it a couple of tugs. Move it a few feet, but no real progress. I ask the kid and what gear he is in, and hes in 1st low range, no wheel spin. I tell him to put it in 3rd and get some real wheel spin. I step on it, my 454 is turning those STT discoverers making rooster tails worth a pic. It climbs up the hill, through the snowbank and back onto the road. Was a fun night, and my first real rescue.

[TayMaker]

Colorado has always had a great supply of opportunities to pull people out of tough spots with my trucks but my favorite one of all happened before I even owned a truck. A group of friends and I went up to Rocky Mountain National Park for a little camping trip. We hit some of the surrounding trails in his brand new at the time, '92 Jeep Wrangler and went down a hill he finds out he can't get back up. After several attempts at finding a line that will work, he's just not getting enough speed or traction to make it anywhere close. My buddy, not willing to make a more serious attempt at the run and break something on his new Jeep, I made a quick run back to the camp and return to pull him out with a couple of straps attached to the first car I owned, a 1981 Mazda GLC very similar to:
http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh200/kirk_316/blog/Mazda_323_Notchback.jpg

Thus ending the much s--t talking about how bad ass his jeep was.

[The-Redneck]

short answer, fire truck. it was a early 90's f350 4x4 like rescue truck deal. had a small water tank and hose reel. they were back fighting a brush fire where we were wheeling. they got stuck, pulled him out.

i pulled out a dodge 2500 hd 5.9 cummins that was layin frame last night for a half bottle of whiskey and a case of beer

[confusedxj]

well ive pulled out many thing is my few years of driving, ill save the first for the last, with a samurai i was very suprised what i could actually pull out, but i do have to say when i got stuck in my cherokee two sweet z71s hooked up and yanked me out of the drying clay

with my samurai ive pulled out jeeps, toyota trucks even a z71 but it was just high centered on a steep hill

some of the best ive helped pull out was a 7.3L excursion on 35s locked, and some serious weight it didnt need, no i couldnt pull it out, but my sami was the only thing able to skip over the mud to hook up the winch cable for the guy, took us over 16 hours to get this thing turned around and out of the mud, it a very bad design putting the power steering cooler under the front bumper, he ripped it off and lost power steering and power brakes.

http://c1.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images02/140/l_1afae8bc2b5b4a40adcb68b221d2e01c.jpg

another time as a 00 z71 that went hualin into a mud whole, samurai again couldnt pull it out, it was dead weight, we ended up using a well pulling truck to lift it out of the whole, kid was 16 and his dad got tot watch the whole thing!
i wish i had a picture

this one time i pulled out my **** when we were wheeling then i rammed it through a bunch of ****

[Peyton]

first time i ever went mudding my tahoe was completely stock minus straight pipes. i went with 2 friends, a tacoma with 35 inch super swampers and a 2000 jeep Sahara on 33/12.50 All terrains. They both got stuck and i pulled them both out then drove through the exact same spot and had no problems. They didn't find it as funny as i did. I've been pulling that jeep out ever since.

On a big group trip down to the outta banks NC some how our friends s-10 blazer got into some really deep sand and his 4 wheel drive broke. The jeep i mentioned in the previous story tried to pull him out and after about 20 min of him trying to pull out the s-10 and the s-10 just digging itself deeper and deeper i hooked up to it and drug it all the way down the beach. here's a video below, its from facebook so i'm not sure if it'll work.

Had a good one May long weekend. Buddy buried his 77 Ford F-250 (460, 36s) and then it died. (water) Everyone was yammering about a tractor I said here let me try. Linked two ropes and yanked three times FVCKIN HARD and I dead pulled him. Pretty impressed considering my truck weighs probably about 1200 pounds less and I my TSLs were chewing the entire time. Not gonna lie I extinguished my cigar on the windshield first pull :aniteef:

Best picture I can find of course that's the same Ford pulling me out. This was long before he got buried.

I had to pull him out along with a few other friends once I got out.

last spring my buddie called me and said he was stuck in a flooded field trying to pull out a mid 80s dodge on 35s, so i go there and one light little tug pulled the avalanche out. then i hook to the dodge (on frame, BIGTIME) and it wouldnt budge even backed up 20 ft with a 30ft snatch strap and wouldnt budge him. i then hooked a chain to the dodge with my truck(92 k1500) and pull the chan tight to where i just barely spun and hook a snatch strap to the front of my truck and the back end of the avalanche. i told him to back up to my bumper, put it in drive gun it and dont let off. all i saw in my mirror was a dodge ram airborn and nearly landed in my bed LOL. the dodge didnt have any bumper or tow hooks, needless to say we bent his shackle mount pretty bad

When i had my Ranger, i pulled out a 4 door short bed chevy that was buried to it's frame on street tires, and all i had was bald 32x11.50 Bridgestone All terrains and a 3" body lfit.

Had to pull out a 89 blazer 2 door, on 39.5 Super Swampers buried beyond the axles, on my motor with less then 1000 miles onit, poor motor lol

Then last night had to pull a F150 out because his 4wd wasn't working, and since my front driveshaft isn't in due to my lift, i had to yank quite hard

My room mate's first time at the badlands with his 35s, he tried a hole that was a little too deep. Got a little water in the intake and the truck shut off. I had to pull at ~7000lb suburban out of the hole on loose sand, with a brand new strap, brand new hitch, and rand new shackle mount. After a couple test pulls to make sure everything was stout, I yanked him a few times really hard and then hammered the gas once I got the tires over the edge of the hole.

one night there was this 05 d-max on a leveling kit and 35's, he had it framed out in some of this nasty black florida mud and water was just under the top headlights and it was up to the taillights also, anyway, so i try to pull him out and i started snapping their tow straps, 4 times to be exact and they were doubled over for every snatch, finally they quadrupled the strap and i only had about 5 feet of yank to it. put my foot to the floor and in a mater of seconds i had both front tires hopping of the ground. even though i was positive i was gonna snap an outer shaft, i kept my foot to the floor and stayed in it and finally drug him out. with no breakages, thank god. sorry for no pics but i was drinkin' that night and pics was the last thing on my mind.

You guys are lucky, 2 years ago, I just finished the drivers side demolding my truck, welll I was running a kerosene heater in my garage, I had to go to Wesco to get more kerosene and it was like 8:30 PM so it was dark out.. on the way back from Wesco I took the "Scenic" route.. well that was a seasonal road that was in the middle of no where.. and I had a gay Trac Fone at the time and it never got service unless I was in town. To my surprise I got stuck and my truck has an Open diff and 265/75r16's, that are about 50% tread. Around a corner it kept going straight and I was in a mini ditch. I tried the phone crap, that didn't work.. I spilled my kerosene so I tipped it back up and zip tied a rag around the top of the can. Anyways I waited and waited in the cab with the heat on and engine running. I decided it's time to start digging, so I remembered I have one of those fold up shovels you take camping with you, I used that bastard for 2 hours digging out everything, finally I backed up and went back the way I came. Hands were purple, even hot water on them felt bad.

Last night me and a few buddies were hanging out on the beach when somebody decided to go find a coyote that was shot earlier in the night. So we hopped in my truck, an '02 dodge diesel, and a '97 chevy and went driving through the dunes trying to find the "dead" coyote.

The guy in the dodge is following me through a little muddy patch in the grass and I started to see him slow down. So I got out of the mud and turned my lights on him and saw that he had successfully buried his truck to the frame. So the guy in the '97 hooks up to him with a 20 ft towstrap and a 15 foot chain. This guy ends up getting stuck with the strap and chain to tight to undo from either him or the dodge.
So now we have a dodge and a chevy stuck back to back attached to each other.

So I remember back from high school physics when me and a buddy were talking about mudding and pulling people out. My physics teacher told us that if there is two trucks stuck back to back hook them together and then hook a strap to the middle of the strap between the two trucks and pull and a 90* angle from the two trucks.
Well thats what i did..and by god it worked. My 2wd chevy pulled out the dodge and the other chevy at the same time with just a small little yank.

That has to be my best get people unstuck story so far

THe best thing I pulled out was my own truck :(. I used my brother's 82 F150 with a stock 150k 5.0 and a 3inch body lift. But he does have granny gears and lockers. My./ poor 82 Chevy at the time had more than double his HP butsome dummy at GM decided 3.08 open diffs in a 4X4 was a good idea. I fell in some tractor ruts with my two driver side tires and the passenger side was on dry ground. They would not pull traction for the life of me. Im ashamed to say he just bumbed me out easy. Though I learned an exspensive lesson, now I have 3.73 with lockers. :bawl:

well this was a few years ago rather then pulling someone out my dad had to be pulled out. they were out on lake winnipeg all day ice fishing on there way back following same tracks over the crack well the crack had gone from an inch wide in the morning to about 10 feet wide at six at night they came around the corner to cross slowly but not enough and slid into it luckily the running boards caught and kept them from going for swim, a bombider came along and he couldnt get it out just kept dragging them along the crack, so my dad said just get that f@#king thing out so he gave it a good yank and it finally came out it was an 99 f150 by the way
