"More on jerking"

Okay, at the risk of people taking my "Jerk" talk to a dangerous level, I want to re-iterate.

First, you should take into account the rating of your strap!
-Mine is a 27,000 lb 3" strap, which can take a lot mor ethan others.

Next you should try pulling without slack, before trying to jerk it.

Then you leave JUST A LITTLE slack, Like for me, just having the strap resting on the ground before you take off is good. And you drive away and yank him out.

There is another method I read about called "running" And that is scary, and I wouldn`t do it.

I think I might invest in another sling, to hook to two tow hooks at once, because I could bend my frame pulling from just one hook.

Here`s a good link to some tow strap info!
