The amount of energy required to pull a stuck 4WD out of trouble is tremendous and by using the right gear for the job you ensure that you increase the safety for you and all your friends and family on the tracks!<\/p>\n<p><strong><br \/>What do you need? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This is a completely subjective question, with answers ranging from dual winch setups for complete comp truck performance on the tracks, all the way to having a simple recovery <a href=\"https:\/\/www.4wdsupacentre.com.au\/products\/recovery-gear\/hercules-snatch-strap-kit.html\"><strong>Snatch strap Kit<\/strong><\/a> which can pull your 4WD free from trouble smoothly and quickly, only requiring a little bit of timing and a friend in a convenient spot on the track ahead or behind you!<br \/><br \/>Now the question is asking what exactly you need for your vehicle setup and where you are going, first thing is to consider your vehicles GVM or Gross Vehicle Mass plus considering the weight of anything you might be towing as well, that means the fully loaded weight of your vehicle, this will help you to figure out just how much strength your setup might need, for example you might need a heavier load rated strap, such as the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.4wdsupacentre.com.au\/products\/recovery-accessories\/hercules-snatch-strap-11000kg-nylon.html\"><strong>11,000kg strap<\/strong><\/a> instead of the standard <a href=\"https:\/\/www.4wdsupacentre.com.au\/products\/recovery-accessories\/hercules-8000kg-snatch-strap.html\"><strong>8,000kg rated<\/strong> <strong>strap<\/strong><\/a>. <br \/><br \/>When pulling your 4WD free from trouble there are factors of force that can be increased by 200-300% due to suction from mud and drag from sand meaning your 4WD may be as high as <strong>3350kg <\/strong>when a particularly sticky section of mud can result in a load in excess of 10,000kg meaning the standard rating 8,000kg strap may not cut the mustard. <br \/><br \/>By assessing the standard track conditions at the locations that you are likely to drive in and anticipating the worst-case scenario, for example, if you are heading to Fraser Island, you will want to pack gear for the most gnarly sand recoveries. Or if you like to head to hardcore tracks well out of reach of any help then bringing a reliable winch to pull yourself free simply makes sense.<\/p>\n<p>The brand new <a href=\"https:\/\/www.4wdsupacentre.com.au\/products\/winches.html\"><strong>Domin8r Xtreme Winch<\/strong><\/a> is the latest release of affordable and powerful winches that are ready for action at a moment\u2019s notice.
