2WD Tips #2 - Recovery Equipment

[@DB-qm4jx]

Don’t use that ball as a place for your recovery strap. You killed easily kill the guy helping you when it snaps.

[@RM-bx2zt]

This is what I came to say. Hope he listens. Never use a tow ball for recovery.

[@VidadeAP]

Correct . He can buy something where he can tie the rope to that actually clips in in the same spot as the tow hitch (forgot what it’s called but it’s those little metal u shaped things for pulling people out lol)

[@hoppermantis7615]

Wait? NO NO NO.. DO NOT! Use that hitch as a recovery point. It will KILL YOU. Many people die that way. Better to make a bridle , bolt a chain sling under the bumper...use a treesaver or a recovery hitch D-ring. If you do not have a winch. I highly recommend you to get a high lift jack. Or redneck it with a a 2x4 (notched or slited ...for a strap on both sides) to strap onto you positive drive tire Edit... I see I'm late to the game.

Hopefully you have a license to run that baofeng or I’m coming for you. Sgt of the ham police.

[@jaredl.1738]

Get a hitch shackle, don’t ever use a ball hitch as a recovery point…

[@UnknownJJP]

Get rid of that hitch asap and get a proper recovery hitch. Look into why and you’ll thank everyone later

[@dodgecitycycles1477]

NEVER USE A BALL HITCH!

[@michaelblock3998]

Seek training from a I4WDTA certified trainer in your area. Do not blindly trust some guy making a video on KZbin.

[@andyr5389]

You know what they say....4wd just means you get stuck further in. 😂

[@gregsandoval4595]

Cảm to say throw that hitch away

[@kendraliany8670]

What type of carjack do you recommend ?

[@mtower235]

I carried a come along and high lift when I had 2WD too

[@GoSlowTaco]

The only 2wd trip you need to know is buy a 4wd

[@JFroMG_YT]

tip 1: get a 4wd tip 2: if you cant get a 4wd then learn where not to go and dont risk it

[@Gideon-300]

4wd just means you get stuck further out. I think Tip 2 applies to 4wd also. Know where not to go.

[@Chippy_777]

don't use a ball hitch.

[@alexplante9880]

What traction boards are those?

[@apollojohnson3319]

He has a 4x4 what?

[@hi9580]

The hitch is risky

[@ManuelGutierrez-zb5xm]

I absolutely love this. Thank you. Please make a video of each and take a bite of that sale please.

[@ElectricDanielBoone]

“Any situation”?? Is there a disclaimer I didn’t see in there somewhere? Looks very sketchy, but your enthusiasm is great! You can have a lot of adventures with a 2WD pickup, but you have to know your limitations, or the adventure may have you.

[@scottbeach3190]

Everyone thinks the hitch is a big issue. Taking a 2wd tacoma out on a trail is the real issue

[@seannelson3699]

This was awesome, why is there so few likes?

[@kellanlaw3984]

Thank you Sean!

[@countryswagg365alldaylong2]

I have a question i just recently bought a tacoma prerunner trd sport, and was wondering if the truck you have is a true 2wd or does it have a rear locker?

[@guitardaddy6]

Because the advice isn't solid. The compressor is cheap and takes forever. The ball is a terrible recovery point because it COULD AND DOES KILL PEOPLE. that radio is a short range radio and nobody would likely hear you if you got stuck. The only good points about this video are the air down tools and the traction board.

[@fantasticfaart]

Some resl world expamples of how to use the traction board would be an amazing video
