dperone Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 We received a call from a traffic control company to winch one of their crash trucks out of the sand on a rural road about 20 miles away from our shop. I happened to be on another call about half way between our shop and the location so I was dispatched along with our heavy to give him a hand with traffic and pulling cable. I arrived to find a truck about 50' from the road way buried on to the axles front and back. Being as impatient as I am, I started rigging my little winching monster to pull the truck to the roadway. I ran a 4 part line to the truck and started pulling. Once the chocks got a good bite the truck came right out of the hole it dug. I winched it all the way to the road then repositioned to get it to jump the 6 inch lip back onto solid ground. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
