Winching: 4X4 recovery technique

As hunters, we rely on four-wheel drives to get us into the field … and back. Even the best 4X4 can get stuck, though, and that’s when you need to know how to rescue it using a winch and a recovery kit.

ARB has some of the best recovery gear in the business (not to mention all the rest of the gear for your 4X4). We hooked up with them to find out how to do a winch recovery when a 4X4 gets stuck.

The Premium ARB Recovery Kit we used contains all the items you need to make the most of your winch and get you out of a predicament, but ARB offers other options, including the ability to put together your own customised kit. Find out more on the ARB website.
