Just pulled this big chevy 4500 out of some dirt today. Really impressed with my jku! Especially considering that my jeep was half the size of it!

I know I should've gotten pics, but I was more into the fact of actually trying to get it out! Just trust me!

What kind of setup on the jku?

What kind of setup on the jku?

I'm asking the same thing. Because, I'm less impressed at this point without know more information.

I'm running all stock right now.

Okay….but what were the circumstances and what did you use to pull him out?

It was just dirt, but the truck had about 1/4 of its wheel stuck in it and had no grip.

I had a buddy with a dually like that and it would get stuck with two wheels on the pavement and two wheels in wet grass.

I got a dually 3500 4x4 bucket truck stuck in well manicured grass once at work. Had to have a back hoe yank it out, broke a couple tow straps doing it too.

That thing was an ungodly heavy pig.

it must have been barely stuck or stuck going downhill, the physics behind pulling that thing out with a jk are not looking good..

they have commercials with a tundra towing the space shuttle. just getting something to move isnt that hard if you have traction and whatever is stuck isnt deep in mud or snow and the ground is relatively flat.

I like my JK, but my dually has never been stuck in the mud or snow, even with 12,000 pounds behind it. Just sayin.........................................

Good answer. This is correct.

A dually with no weight in the bed has half the traction of a single tire truck. Not hard to get stuck on wet grass with one. Ive had plenty of them stuck . With some weight and good tires they can go good.

Well I think it's impressive! Way to go!

I'm happy for you and that this situation worked out for you. Be very careful in the future and learn the correct ways and equipment to use when dealing with really stuck vehicles as this can lead to serious injuries for the uneducated and or bystanders.

Providing help to the stranded can rewarding but requires knowledge of "how to" do it safely & correctly.

Just some advice from an old retired Bostsun Mate & Salvage Diver.:happyyes:

How much did you charge him?

Had my brother in laws full size Chevy Pickup pulled out of the sand by a Suzuki Samurai .
He still hates to talk about it but there are pictures.
I have got stuck on wet grass before,very embarrassing.
Doesn't take much to get rolling if you have the right tires.
