Wheel Winch, where to get?
Wonder if this would really work... Are they available in US or just Down-Under?

this would not be a good idea for real wheeling where you don't have a straight pull at your jeep this would only work if you are driving straight and can keep going straight but if you need to pull side ways or a heavy object that would possible rip your studs off and cause mayham ans destruction :ban:

Interesting concept

This idea has been around since WWII. As mentioned, there is no fairlead so only very straight pulls.

i think it would work for a simple stuck as in the video, but its not going to get you out of any real danger. Also what do you do when all 4 wheels are good and buried, or you pinned yourself against a rock with an open diff truck, wheel winch isn't going to help then

If you have open diffs and put yourself in the position of getting pinned against a rock, or bury more than 1 wheel, YOU DESERVE TO BE STUCK... |
cool concept but there is still no replacement for the old standby electric winch and a little common sense when wheeling
