    Note - The Demon Child was experiencing a rear locker failure, that Chris & Bec did not realize during this recovery (the issue is found and fixed in an upcoming video). And although Kevin & I took a Factor55 kinetic rope with us to the Arctic Circle, we also left one at home. But they were in a hurry & unfortunately didn't grab our Factor55 recovery bag, which had the rope and other equipment inside.
    (Also, our FedEx drive did not get in trouble. He's an awesome dude & his boss seemed pretty understanding from what we were told. Especially considering that the reason this particular road has not been plowed yet...was because the plow truck had also gone off the road.)

      Definitely the difference between someone who does it every day of his life for a living (we’d certainly hope he’s good at it), and two people who have very little recovery experience. 😊

      I'm not even a bit blaming.. I grew up in Alaska way before these recovery ropes. Chains. 3/4" chains! Still a soft pull but on the frame... These trucks the "recovery points" are just asking for damage.

    I love seeing neighbors helping neighbors.
    Sometimes a way to recover vehicles like this is to sharply pull the rear back up on the road and have the stuck vehicle turn the steering wheel down hill ( right in this case). This tends to almost slide the vehicle sideways back on to the road. It causes the front and rear to come back onto the road at the same time. It’s not intuitive and seems backwards but it works.

You guys are in where...? Utah! 2 plus feet of snow! Nobody has a snow shovel! Noooo'body has a snowplow or even tire chains...! What's with you kids?! Get a plow mounted on 1 of your beater trucks w/ snow chains & use the winch! There will be a next time! Love you kids but ya need to get your ear bent on this one!

    I work for a towing company and next time when u hook up hook to the far side of the stuck vehicle and so in this case hook to the right side of the FedEx truck and the left side of the Jeep so ur pulling more up onto the road and it will pull out and back onto the road easier it will still take some pulling but then it’s trying to pull back onto the road instead of pulling down the ditch. Great job guys.

    @karlbrown3214 Рік тому +2

    on these recoveries first remove the bumper to get to good tow points noted...🙂. Only thing that might have been a better tow point was the passenger side of the Fed Ex truck to pull it more toward the center of the road. But still a great job helping neighbors, this is one thing I miss is more people willing to help their neighbors.

    • @LiteBrite
      @LiteBrite  Рік тому +2

      Yeah, since the truck had zero dedicated recovery points on the front, the bumper is what the FedEx driver chose to hook to. We would have gone to the front axle beam (because we’ve recovered 18-wheelers from sand pits like that before), but we weren’t there. I believe that’s what Chris hooked to once the bumper was out of the way. 🙂

    Since he couldn't get his front tires to catch and go up in the road you probably should have shortened the strap and pulled sideways across the road to get the front of the FedEx truck up onto the road and then pull diagonally across to get him up but this was way more entertaining.

Maybe on a car/truck prior to the mid 70’s, but not any more. Remember when you jacked up the vehicle from a slot in the bumper you jack went into?
