    plow recovery / gin pole

    yes, I had a strap around it to hold it in close to the truck. If was going to drive on a paved road with traffic i would have looped a chain from the lifting strap up to the pintle ring. I was using a electric planetary gear winch and don't think the drum brakes are super reliable on them...

    plow recovery / gin pole

    my friend followed me in his truck. 15mph on dirt roads. I pulled over when a car came up behind us. total trip was @ 8 miles. Felt fine on the last 200 yards of pavement. I was worried about bumps and the eyelets in the bed breaking I hooked the straps into the eyelets in the bed.

    Stuck in my yard....TWICE!!

    I was using my 108 (20,000lbs) in similar conditions Sat. My 1008 got stuck and it has 315/75 MTR's on it. Sank down. The 108 with its 46" XL's went where I told it to. it has been my experience that the skinny front tires sink and that is how it starts. Next thing you know your stuck.
