TWO D8's? I ran D8's and pulled out many trucks, never had one I couldn't get out. Including one that left an axle behind! Truck came out, axle did not.
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
Everyone including manual says not to use reverse in low range. But we personally have used low range reverse in every truck we've owned without issue. In sloppy mud it doesn't have the binding action it would take to hurt anything. We only use low range in sloppy mud in SW FL. I've had 7 trucks and eveyone I've gotten stuck at some point. We always travel in pairs though and have winch with 3 snatch blocks. So always able to get out. Thats why we got a 2nd truck. Before that we sat for 16 hrs and an excavator had to pull us. We call it a learning curve. Now we don't play without 2nd truck there. We just got winch assembly off our 1st 925 we sold and installing it on our 923A2 so we'll have two winch trucks now. Last time we got stuck in 925A2 a couple weeks ago we had to use all 3 snatch blocks to get it out. But we were hooked to 2 buggies pulling them at the same time. We were using our 923A2 as anchor but kept dragging it to us so we had to hook a 2nd truck to the 923 as additional anchor. It was quite the scene. I'll look, we're on one of those R/C helicopter videos during the escapade. I have to find the video and I'll post it.I read about that somewhere on this site so I didn't try it. Didn't need to make anymore problems for myself! The truck doesn't like to go into low to begin with for some reason.. Easy to put the t-case in neutral but difficult to put back into high or low.
Those would be Redneck Yachts!HA! I'm not into the mudding scene, but **** that was a cool video! What do they call those vehicles that look like the party barge in Return of the Jedi? They're pretty awesome. Thanks for sharing!
