    Going off-roading or mudding requires lots of things to help keep your car and possessions safe. Jeeps are one of the most common vehicles to take off-roading and camping simply since these vehicles handle very well in dirt and rough terrain. To get the most out of the experience, people take off the doors and remove the soft top prior to heading out to the woods. While the tires of these vehicles are equipped with deep tread, they sometimes get stuck in thick dirt. This calls for a backup truck or Jeep, a winch hook strap, and heavy-duty ratchet tie down straps. The straps are connected between the two vehicles to help free the stuck Jeep prior to blowing the engine. Trying to get unstuck from the dirt can damage much of the vehicle because of the consistent pull it has on the engine when switching over between reverse and drive. While this technique generally works, off-roading and mudding require additional assistance. When packing for a camping, off-roading, or mudding trips, bear in mind the following information:.

    Strap winches can quickly snap, especially if what you're attempting to pull is heavier than what the strap can handle. Before heading out to the campground for some off-roading, examine all your straps and hooks. If there is any small damage to the strap or hook, consider purchasing a new one. You don't want to be stuck in the woods when something breaks and you're miles away from a store. Trying to use a damaged or frayed strap is incredibly frowned upon considering they can injure those standing near the strap. via

If your vehicle is the anchor point, ensure that your truck or Jeep is secure with the breaks on and attach the block to the tow hook.

    After taking all the proper safety measures to install the winch straps, the stuck vehicle should put the engine in drive and slowly give it gas.
