I spend quite a bit of time in Northern Canada during the winter.
My recovery and safety kit provides a warm and fuzzy feeling when its -40 (C or F) and the nearest civilization is 300km out... also meets mine/construction site safety requirements.
Probably overkill for most folks

Thats just the recovery stuff. I got a bunch of other tools and survival stuff in the truck too. I can list out that crap if you want.

 

sub'd

 

what are those exactly? I'm assuming traction aids..


thanks

 

Yes... pic attached.

These things are great on uneven ground (mud and ice) where the planks are hard to fit... have also inserted these under the planks for grip.

Purchased at Canadian Tire. Came in nifty plastic box... but the box took up too much space.

Cost about $40 CDN... think that's about $1.25 US

I want Skidooman's winch.

 

hmm cool, they look they'd work pretty well, and much easier to stow than maxtrax..

 

At least you probably have trees to attach to. Not sure if you've ever been to Nevada. Not many trees here, hence the reason for me needing a pull pal. Haha.

 

Straps, winch, hi lift, just about every accessory you could require..

So, what is a good, reliable and affordable high-Lift Jack to purchase, and from what retailer? Amazon?ebay?
