Create a pull point by using a tree saver/choker to attach a snatch block (pulley) to something (another tree) off the trail.
Run an extension rope from the van, thru the snatch block, to the item your trying to pull.
Pull with the van, the pull is redirected via the snatch block and the tree is pulled off the road.
Doesn't always work due to space constraints, or the availability of good pull points.
got it! yes i just ordered a front hitch..im shocked these vans dont have a front recovery point from the factory…i run winches and front hitches on my jeeps sometimes its quicker to do a straight line pull than to un do the winch line
Front hitch is installed…I saw a video that recommended taking the bumper off… WAY easier then the directions or other videos…excited to have a recovery point…also lowered the spare tire and made sure it was the same size and in good condition.
Front reciever looks good. I have a bunch of those shackle mount reciever things. I like them.
In a pinch, you can just use the pin to secure a tow strap, way better than looping it on a ball.
Thats a Dana 60, right? I was gonna drop some 10.25 knowledge, but I guess it's not applicable.
I've had several 'lunchbox' lockers... they can be noisey at times but do their job. 100% improvement in traction. Literally. It's math.... it's 100% better.
