    FS - 1991 Toyota HZJ77

    Why put a new Lexus or Audi under the tree when you could take advantage of my “HZJ Holiday Sales Event”? Price lowered to $27,000 and that’s pretty damn firm.

    How did you pick what size hilift jck you have?

    You're not saving tons of money buying a 48" and why a man would carry around a 48" and 60" stanchion is beyond me. There's a fine line between "good enough" and "not enough".

    How did you pick what size hilift jck you have?

    Buy a 60" - you won't regret it. Great as a jack and the extra length is a godsend if you need to use it as a come-a-long. If you just HAVE to have a 48" jack and you're worried about suspension droop compensation then use a tree strap and Jack to lift when you "Jack and stack" or use a...

    Winch, rope and winch bar limitation calculation

    ? A 2:1 - with incoming leg and outgoing leg of line at 0 degrees to block sheave and hook at vehicle - results in a traveling block. The lines share the load equally. The block will of course see a multiplier of 2 or a doubling of the load. The block and mounts on the truck - no matter where...

    Winch, rope and winch bar limitation calculation

    You're not "doubling the power" of the winch.(That would be "magic") You're effectively "half-ing" the weight of the load in RELATION to the winch.(whatever load must be moved) This is in a 2:1 pull. But remember, whatever load is being "lessened" by the the snatch block(s), in relation to the...

    Is this a decent recovery setup?

    Join a club -as in get time behind the wheel off the highway. Never said all club members were knowledgeable instructors. Just be careful hiring anyone to "teach" you this stuff. Unlike road racing schools or HPD - off road driving instructors do not carry credentials. And certainly don't rely...

    Is this a decent recovery setup?

    My personal opinion, knowing MANY I4WDTA "certified" instructors? Save your effort and money. Read, read, read! Jim Allen's 4 Wheeler's Bible is a great book to start with! Many'a COI at schools is based off this book. Get active in a 4x4 group. Anyone - and I mean anyone - can pay their fee...

    lift mate stress on tire bead

    In several years of teaching the use of the lift mate I think on,y one time did it contribute to the "de-beading" of a tire. If you've placed the face of the device 100% on the sidewall AND you are aired down quite a bit you maaaaaaaaaaaaaay have a problem. Next time just place the face 50% on...

    Considerations when upgrading from wire to synthetic rope

    We used a blood knot once and then tried a double eight. Both worked - they do create a good bit of heat and any knot compromises strength and throws WLL number out ofthe window at the knot but in the middle of a pull and in the middle of nowhere when you don't have time for a splice it works...
