Recovery/Towing

Hey,

Quick question. If I am pulling someone that is stuck in snow do you recommend using 4Hi or 4Lo?

That depends on the conditions. I have done both. Smaller vehicles that just need that little bit of extra traction 4 Hi 1st gear is fine. For something like this, 4lo 2nd gear and locked!!!!!

I would say 4 low most of the time unless the load is real light, it's just eaisier on the clutch and trans. to use low.
