2012 fall freeze your ass off bc mountain meet

Wait, the tow strap was loose through both shackles? So when you pulled it put all that force into squeezing your shackles towards each other?

 

is it 3/16" steel?

thats some crazy shit.... makes me thing aliens abducted you, drugged you, and took Taco for a joyride by smashing it.

 

Is this meet bring your own exam gloves, or will they be provided?

 

oh yea, well your fucked...

NEVER PULL WITH A CHAIN EVER EVER EVER EVER

I think you were yanking it

I missed that post

 

I'm thoroughly convinced this is the issue. He made a triangle with the tow strap and the only fixed point was at the chain. Triangle wanted to be line, bumper obliged.

 

pull with a chain they said. it wont bend your bumper they said.

 

Freddie, you got a tire balancing machine at the shop?

 

So I should stop pulling bushes out with a chain hooked to the truck? And not bother keeping it in the truck with my recovery gear?

 

Hmm, I haz 100' synthetic rope, tow strap (forget how long), and chain (forget how long). Seems me chain is unnecessary.

 

Chains work best for bushes

 

Chains are fine as long as there isn't any type of sudden force applied to it...like if the chain is slack and pulling rig floors it. For slow, controlled pulls they are fine.

 

I agree, ain't gonna stop using it for that, works great.

It is kinda heavy, but it has a spot in the truck which is no longer a daily driver so meh. Oh, and I have two tree straps, shackles, etc.

 

I'd like to use that machine some night. I have a bent wheel on my car. Or a bent spindle. Need to figure out which

 

We need more pics.... I wanna see the other side

 

....and stumps.

 

it looks the same way
im pulling it off 2night or 2morrow night and trying to bend it back and put a new stud in

 

that's some crazy sh*t

check for cracks when your done bending it back.

 

I might have to sweet talk him into a quick balance check.

 

lurry's fix for his
