    @JoeOvercoat 12 років тому +1

    Or the morgue. One also has to consider that your rig might pull part of a vehicle clean off. You clearly know what you are doing, and it seems like you keep your gear in great shape. But I, for one, feel better about watching you work when you toss that cover over the cable, for those long pulls, to tame it a tad.
    Keep it up, whatever you do. You do great work. Anyhow, you can always operate the winch with your other arm. ;)

    Make shift winch blanket. Basically incase that cable snaps, that strap will help reduce a lot of whiplash as the cable snaps back. An actual winch blanket works much better.

  • @offroadrecoveryteam
    @offroadrecoveryteam  12 років тому +1

    Sounds like you still have a fuel restriction, you can verify that with a fuel psi gage and if you tap in at different spots like at the t.b.i. or before the fuel filter you may be able to pinpoint the problem. It is very hard to get a fuel tank clean after a problem like that, you might just have plugged up the filter again.

  • @offroadrecoveryteam
    @offroadrecoveryteam  12 років тому +1

    It's to let every one approaching know that we are doing a recovery so they keep a safe distance, just like on a roadway. The trails are busy, and sometimes drivers are not looking very far down the trail when climbing over rough terrain.

      @@nathanhearld474 if he backed up all the way to the hole he had to use the front winch to pull him forward instead of using the powerfull hydraulic winch to get the bus out. maybe he could do it with 2 pulleys but that would be a very long day (i'm not sure if there is even enough cable on that winch to do that) and i'm pretty sure nobody wants to lay down in that mud to pull the driveshafts out, would you want to lay in that mud? but that's only my opinion on this one.

    @Mercmad 9 років тому +1

    I was wondering why you didn't hook on to the chassis tow rings to begin with .I always used snatch block when pulling gear out the mud,without going into the maths you decrease the load on the winch and double the weffort being used to shorten the rope.
    What size rope is that? We used a 1/2 Rope ,which was changed every year and even broke that a few times. We always laid a ballistic blanket over the rope. It doesn't look like it would do much but it does prevent the rope whipping and possibly killing someone.
