Got a pair, they work great in deep snow. Got me out a few times now. I highly recommend.
Great video, short and to the point with great demonstration of actually being stuck with spinning tires. Thank you!
Four spinning tyres👍
Excelente. Saludos desde Veraguas panamá 🇵🇦
im a solo snow plower and these have saved me. no shovel needed. i will say it does seem like i will only get about 4 uses out of them, the rubber splits.
The rubber piece seems to fall off at the end of the video though?
I got a pair of them to improve contact with maxtrax. Sometimes in a send wheels just spinning over maxtrax, having no good traction, these grabbers help to start recovery.
Anyone else notice no rubber on the strap once it starts moving
These are over $100 for a pair on Amazon. From the looks on the video, the rubber block separated from the strap at 1:08. One use wonder for over 100???
Well spotted fella👍
I really doubt it came off, is black on a black tyre, just hard to see
Thank you👍🤝
Next trip to pismo for sure!
Interesting product. I'd be a bit worried about that strap grabbing hold of the brake caliper on close fitting rims. And then there is the risk of getting a bit of suspension bounce and wiping out your inner fender/quarter panel on the likes of a stock hilux, colarado 7 etc.
have used for 2 years in UK mud , they can take wheel spin , but slow is better. one tough product. one advantage is they lift the diff with every rotation . they can get you out when you're high centred (grounded). one trick is to attach a recovery strap to them , engage diff lock & you have a mechanical wheel winch.
This is a good product that has gotten me out of snow several times. But the straps with the D rings are so annoying I went down and bought ratchet straps for all of mine.
Very good idea actually
For the semi i just use a strap and a piece of 2x2 steel square tube
Patut dicoba ini👍
I like the idea! Guess no more maxtrax?
There we go done, hahaha. Just a quick edit in the video, Hang on pause, where's the shovels dig it out, now put the video recorder back on, hahaha there we go done. Hilarious guys
And you'll notice as he reversed.. that rubber stripped itself off the yellow stripe.
Great product NOT HAHA.
Donde lo puede adquirir en Spain
Great video. A bit of shovel work would have made it easier. Still its a great product, even for 2 wheel drives I guess.
Good idea wonder how long tough they are
The rubber came off the strap?
track grabber or truck claw?
The easiest and best way in the sand is to make the (tire pressure PSi) 15PSI, and the car will run easily and without damage to the engine and gearbox, in the long run.
FYI useless on ice or hard packed snow! Failed when I needed them. Good only for sand , mud and soft snow ( not hard packed).
At .58 as they say there it goes it is out, the black block is missing. what happened to it?
Not sure, but you are supposed to install it real tight! I'd say because he installed like a grandma it broke?
@@jarnosaarinen4583 It has flipped over so the black is against the tyre. Snow chains twist like that also.
pause at 1:17 run quarter speed & full screen not turned inside out 100% missing
Brasil português..GOSTARIA DE SABER COMO COMPRAR ESSA PEÇA
So when you got "stuck" you were driving forward only. When you put the rubbish on, you drive backwards. Why didn't you just drive backwards without bothering to put them on? Would've been a lot quicker. How much did you get paid for this?
How can I get a pair
Old trick using a wide piece 2x4 wood with a rope like this on old tractors.
at 1:09, rear wheel, wheres the rubber gone? was that the life span gone?
This is one time use only . I guess 🤦🏻♂️
At 16 psi in all wheels I'm yet to get stuck anywhere on Fraser or Moreton Island.
Mad dog
it can help to Crossing the sand dunes with suv cars 4*2????
how many p i need?
وين موجود بالرياض
Hello...
I like it...
How can I get it?
I live in Jordan
Hi, see this site: www.tracgrabber.com/
I used square wheels when 4x4’n
No brainer, 4x4 is 4squarwd therefor a square.
Now go digging in the sand looking for the rubber block, shame on you for endorsing this product.
Kalau ke 4 ban nya di kasih alat itu mungkin bisa lebih baik
interessante
Hello Sir I am from Sultanate of Oman how to get your product
Is possible wider and thicker than that
Should the tires be air-ed down or at full pressure?
If you can, air down. In that situation it might have made enough of a difference to get out, even without the straps. I used a similar strap once without airing down because I was about to get back on the highway and I didn't want low tire pressure causing problems.
Failed in one use? gone at 1:09
4x4 Australia... Trusted these guys and thought they are unbiased... But we are wrong!
1:09 the rubber is missing ?
It was sacrificed to the sand gods
I wish the cut wouldn't have been there. It makes me wonder what happened that wasn't shown. Not saying these don't work, just saying I have too many doubts due to the video edit.
Snake oil salesmen 😂
I'm not sure that sand has changed in the last 50 years - last time I got bogged in it, I used a piece of drift wood to get out.
Yer nahhhh
The block is missing, hmm does not seem a good product if it just fell off in the soft sand.
Hiç birinizin zinciri bir bqka yaramıyor
likely wont work in deep sand
Reeditado
I reported the video, it is clearly misinforming us. It is edited and also the product fails at 1:08
fake?
Producted failed!!
Grosser Fahrfehler....wer durch lockeren Sand fährt muss Gas geben bzw mit Schwung durchfahren und allrad ....untersetzung nützt nicht achse sperren auch nicht
Shit broke.
1:08 it failed.
It broke lol bad productt
It is good for nothing .the video was cut and adited .it needs something more wide to work well
