Stuck truck?

Post by Hilux11 »

Well i went for a 4WD in the Eyre mountains , and ended up walking out. i followed the 4wd track ,good track rough in a few places but my mistake was turning around, and that i dont think the front wheels are working to well in 4wd in the truck that i had just brought (which is now stuck), i am about 15m down from the track on a slight slope on tussock. what is a good option to pull me out ? ground ancor , winch and would a quad bike pull me up ? even better if any one could help out please let me know?

Haha bugger thats a good wee walk mate. Flat mate might be heading up that way soon if that helps. Could try a big 4 wheeler if its not too bogged. If you have a winch then a ground anchor or bury ur spare tyre, or borrow a hand winch
