Now that's how you sell Electric Winch! We are heading to Trek this week and were trying to figure out how this highlift jack winching works thanks for the Demonstration!
It's not easy, but it's never going to run out of battery either!
Jeez Simon, you earned your Thumbs Up on this one. Very interesting and a great demo of manual recovery, thanks.
Thanks mate!
Thanks for the demo - its a lot of work and can be very dangerous, but when and if it becomes necessary, then its necessary!
Not usually something you would do for laughs! But another recovery tool in the arsenal.
Excellent explanation?
In principal its similar to how a linesman would clime a telegraph pole.
Clamp - tension - ascend. then again on the other foot (chain)
This is similar to the method i have used in the past.
Only i do two other things
1: i have a large heavy duty D ring on the " your truck" end of the hi-lift bar to feed the main chain through (on the 2nd hole in tjhe bar). It keeps the stresses more parallel to the hi-lift bar. And stops the chain pulling away from the jack bar
2: On the "your stump" end of the hi-lift i have a heavy duty D ring with two bushes through the last "top" hole on the jack bar. Cheaper, more flexible and easier to get anchor strap tighter.
Nice clear explanation...
This video is much appreciated and very well done. Sure beats the official how to video from hi lift Jack. I have much more confidence in using this kit now. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Lol bought that kit years ago never used it thank God for winches 😁
Sometimes!
Thanks for the useful information, I think you need to put a shackle on the chain at the bottom, there will be a straight line-tree-belt-hi jack-chain
Hi I can’t find part 3 looking forward to watching it, big fan
I must finish it! Thanks for the reminder.
@@LockyourHubs4WDing did pt 3 ever get uploaded? Had a search but couldn't see it. Cheers
Thanks heaps mate
Glad you liked it!
It’s a big pain in the behind. And even more work with the 48” jack. I like the extended handle, not sure I like the telescopic feature though. Less feedback on how much tension is in the system.
You're right, though the extra leverage is great!
I bought from arb Jack mate. Which puts the hi lift Jack in line. There video on RUclips inline pull for hi lift
I think the extreme jack head was in responce to the Jack Mate. Though I still prefer the Jack Mate of the two.
Another AvE viewer by the sound of it
I do like him!
The original HiLift 10mm chain in the G43 class has a load capacity of 1800kg, the 8mm chain in the G80 class has a load capacity of 2000kg
The thinner one is more durable and lighter
Definitely lighter!
@@LockyourHubs4WDing The weight of a chain depends on the material it is made of, the length of the chain, and the diameter of the links. According to a Calibrated Chain - Break Load, Weight and Volume Guide by Jimmy Green Marine, the weight of 8mm chain is approximately 1.45 kg per meter and the weight of 10mm chain is approximately 2.3 kg per meter 1.
lol we need to see a winch demo with a snatch block involved
Great suggestion!
It would be interesting to know how many people have or use an extension handle. I notice this vehicle has no front winch on it.. so in your opinion which method would you use, the winch or the hi-lift jack? Great video.
Thanks! There's no doubt that an electric winch is easier than hand winching, though it puts weight on your 4wd exactly were you don't need it and is pretty much limited to winching forward. Where as the Hi-Lift can winch forward, backward or sideways.
I've been stuck, in my 80(with winch) and nothing to attach the winch to! I winched out backward using a tree behind, using a double line pull and the Hi-Lift.
Hi. Great demo. Just wondering wondering how you get the pin from the 1t bow shackle through the 8mm chain link? The Crane and Gorilla shackle pins are about 10mm on the thread end so don't go through. Are you using a different brand that has a smaller diameter pin on the 1t shackle?
The shackles are from Noble and Sons in Dandenong Victoria.
What essential oils do you use in your beard? BTW great video.
Thanks, and nothing but organic, ethically sourced palm oil! :)
Жалко что лайк можно ставить только один раз .
Haha, thanks!
Where do you get the handle extension?
My garage! Sorry mate, they are not a commercial product.
Just get a winch.
Hard to winch backward with a front mounted winch though.....
@@LockyourHubs4WDing Get two winches (one front, one rear)... anything but this!
After you get to winch a vehicle 10 yards or meters you will definitely decide to buy a good electric winch. I got the "pleasure" to helping recover a large 4wheeler out of a swamp in a vehicle restricted area. Luckily I had my 60 in High-Lift jack in my Jeep. A few miles walking with it and at least synthetic winch lines.
give it a thumbs down twice! haha
