yer not wrong!

what yer really need is a bird with ya so when yer get stuck you got something to do while yer wait fer the LZ rescue party to arrive

Of course you need a woman with you if you get stuck- you need them to point out the error of your ways and to describe in great detail how they told you it wasn't a good idea in the first place :)
 
[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6YscTH3JF68"]YouTube- Chapter 01 - Basic Types of Winches[/ame] obviously this guy is american and as such is a hoop but i found every one of his videos very very helpfull when learning about winching. especially winching backwards from a front facing winch as this is very usefull. he aslo gives you the basic calcs you will need and some very sensible advice. as with everything, know it before you do it!!
 
who aint safe???:eek::eek: oh and ratty i made that ground anchor you said about, with the angle iron and chain, tried it in an emergency rescue of my friend who has his winch fitted and it did not dissapoint!! was only a sj mind but was up past the arches and it done it a treat

How much did it cost you all in ? If you ever damage it it costs virtually nothing to replace the angle iron anorl.:p

I've only ever used mine once and that was in the truck rather than the landy. I had a disco 3 stuck in a ditch down a greenlane. The landrover assistance guy that went out got himself stuck on the other side of the ditched vehicle while attempting to extract him. I couldn't get my truck to stay still on the mud. I was just getting dragged sideways. I used my ground anchors to pull sideways while keeping my truck in line with the cable.

Worked a treat for me too.:)
 
Why has no one asked this guy why he is willing to drive a lane that may or maynot put him in trouble.... without a 4 x 4?

In this particular case there is no question... he WILL get stuck.
 
didnt cost me anything. im in the building trade and lots of merchants like me :D
i did find tho that i was more comfortable to just put all 5 in the ground leaning away from the landy and put a tree strop around them. did find if they was chained together then one would move and make everyone nervous. have you ever been down to a play gound near wroughton called burdrop hill?
 
i was thinking more of the positions ;)

good evening 110woman, how does this evening find you?

World in 110woman land is a happy and great place:)

Looking on map to see how far pub meet on Thurs is from me ? Who knows ,could come along and shatter all your fantasies and prove i'm no 21 year old swedish blonde once and for all :)
 
ah swedish blondes........the ultimate schoolboy fantasy

but proper men don't bother with the plastic porn airheads:D


mmm...... nicethought ..... but think proper men dont bother with them because the recognise they live in reality as opposed to fantasy and understand if they hold out for fantasy they're likely never to sex in their lifes-:Dhowever still dont buy the fact that plastic porn airheads wouldn't be ALL mens first choice, given a half a chance .
 
got my littlun on the way and i class the misses as a hotun. anyone going to this pub meet tomorrow??
 
please g-man for the love of all that is holy. as a man. say its not true

i know too many 'swedish blonde' type girls, all seem to be airheads they see someone in a BMW etc and think they must have money i will sleep with them to get it.....
 
if yer get a winch, do a winch course or similar.You tube vids are a good start but not really enough.
