WoodsWagon Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 What have you pulled out with a subie? I pulled my friend's 1995 toyota extrended cab long bed with 31" mudders out of mud up to his doors. It took three hits, but the car dragged it out.

Ross Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 I tried to pull a 40 series land cruiser with 33" MTs out of a bog - sunk up to the floor in sticky mud - that didn't work at all. Dug some good holes in the gravel trying. Turned out we needed two other 4wds and a tow truck all pulling at the same time to get it out! I have pulled out a Hilux with 31"s on a few occasions.

Numbchux Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 I've pulled out way more than my share of my buddies' heeps. I can think of 3 heeps, 1 of which many times, 1 ranger, and one mazda 323.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

singletrack Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 John [the sucker king] pulled my disabled wagon out 13 miles of dirt with multiple stream crossings. We passed a Jeep Grand Cherokee on the way out. Oh, and here's Dave about to pull this Willys with his Hatch: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andyjo Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 So one of my friends isn't so smart.... and managed to back his jeep into a pond. Luckily we had my subaru, and a truck In parrell..... After some tugging, and sliding sideways towards eachother we managed to yank the heep out of the frozen pond.

singletrack Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 is that so?? No, but it's fun to pretend! Dave wasn't actually stuck; he knocked some wiring loose and we just moved it to a dry spot to fix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UniqueTII Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 One of my friends got run off the road today (and the guy at fault didn't even stop) and ended up getting his Sunfire stuck in 4" of muck and water in the middle of some tall grass. We left his car, ran to the hardware store to get a tow strap, which I'd been meaning to get anyway, and headed back to hook it up. I drove my WRX down into the grass (on a rediculous slope) and hooked up the cars. I was expecting to have to fight his car out of there, but it couldn't have been easier. If it were me who had been run off the road, I would have just driven out of the median and gone off chasing the guy who did it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dfeg Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 How many times, in your Soob, have you pulled (or towed) a car out of mud or snow? I've tried it with a Subaru pulling out a Ford Falcon but my other car, a Volvo (yes, I'm a bloody Volvo driver) just wrecks the ground! Those Soobys are Strong!

Snowman Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 I pulled the tractor out of the snow once. It was freakin' awesome! Pulled a couple of smaller fallen trees out of the road as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MorganM Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 One time I pulled this whole engine assembly out of the way at a junkyard so this dude in his new jetta could drive through. Some sort of small block V8. Just hooked on a chain, put it in 4lo, and drug it dow to the end of the isle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spanky_pete Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 I pulled my father in law's 85 3/4 ton Chevy out of the much with my old 84 wagon once. I had to put a new clutch in it right after that though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

northguy Posted October 5, 2005 Share Posted October 5, 2005 I once pulled a F150 off of the mudflats with my Gen 1 Brat as high tide was rolling in, only to find out it had 800 pounds of illegally-caught salmon in the bed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
