bring a friend who can call for help, pull you out if something happens.
always think twice before doing something.
if you think you cant do it, do it anyway.
get your jeep as dirty as possible. <-- main rule

Make for damn sure your Jeep has recovery points, even if its a tow hitch, that is better than nothing.

Even more important, make sure the stock Blazer and Stock Commander have good recovery points and multiple tow straps...

And for the love of bacon, if you wind up getting pulled out by either vehicle, Don't tell anybody!
