Safety tip for next time: Don't EVER EVER attach a chain or recovery rope/strap to a tow ball. They're not meant for that kind of stress and can become a projectile when they break. Instead, hook up to the safety chain loops on the trailer hitch or anywhere on a vehicle's frame keeping in mind not to pinch parts or run the strap along edges that could cut it. Also good to use a weight like a heavy coat or another strap over the middle of the recovery rope/strap/cable in case it does break or come loose. The weight will absorb recoil so it doesn't come crashing through your windshield or smack someone in the head. Dangerous tensions at work - safety first!

@veteranheavyequipmechanic49905 жыл бұрын
Please don't use the safety chain hooks for recovery. They are not made for that. A short chain or strap around the hitch is a much better plan. A ball even a small one will take vehicle recovery all day but you have to apply some common sense, most importantly the ball can't be shorter than attachment point on the other vehicle or it absolutely can slip off of the ball. I don't recommend chains for recovery because if they break or come loose they can really snap back, you can limit this some by hanging a coat in the middle if the chain to help weigh it down if it snaps. I always use straps between the two vehicles.

@@veteranheavyequipmechanic4990 i saw another video on KZbin of the aftermath of when somebody used a tow ball to try to free a truck that was stuck in the mud, and the tow ball somehow came loose and ricochetted off of the steering wheel into the driver's head in the stuck truck. Obv he was dead. How would you avoid that if you are using a tow ball? Are there different stresses pulling a car out of snow vs mud?

1). Using the Hitch Ball 2). Using standard rope for recovery 3). No tire chains 4). Minivan needed to keep tires straight during the recovery until free 5). Chain? Hooked to the hitch ball?? Good grief. 6). Not one dampener or safety precaution taken. Normally easier to pull someone out the way they went in. Always use rated recovery points with rated recovery gear. Always keep people not involved in the recovery out of the danger zone. That includes inside the vehicles. If pulling someone out, going in a forward drive gear is always more forgiving for your rack and pinion than trying to recover in reverse. Whether it snows once a decade or once a week, ALWAYS keep tire traction devices on your vehicle if you don't want dedicated winter tires in snowy conditions. Don't venture onto a public road and endanger everyone's life and property by being unprepared. Thanks Ed for the share, we've all witnessed stuff that makes us cringe. Good life lesson.

If your in this situation, lower your tire pressure to where your tires look flat. If you don’t have a portable compressor, don’t go as low as 5-8 psi. But have the tires bulge more than a little when you lower the tire pressure. You will see difference immediately and have way more traction. The van doesn’t have much tire for it to be really affective but it would help for sure. The key to driving in snow is slow turning tires, never spin your tires excessively. Fast spinning tires dig, will only work against you.

They need to pull the van at a 45 degree angle, so that they pull him to the RIGHT with as much force as they are pulling him forward.

I have 2 sets of traction aids in my car (like this: cdnll.discountramps.com/images/xl/steel-recovery-track.jpg ) and I've used those to get my front-drive car out of worse spots than that van is in, without any help from anyone else.
