agreed. With some bigger wheels/lift there's no stopping it on that trailPretty impressive for a stock Rubicon with probably 38psi in the tires.
Stacking rocks may have been a good option. But not knowing the drivers skillset or how far into the trail he was, it may not have worked. Seems he was alone. How much time/patience would you have meticulously placing rocks and getting in and driving a few feet, only to repeat it again and again. Based on our limited information, it looks like that might have been his only alternative. I would have tried it and stayed out there all night if it was working.Thinking about how to self-rescue that stock vehicle from that high-centered spot without calling for help. Jack up all the tires one by one and stack rocks under, to lift the stuck center skid? Drive over the spare tire?
Use a LiftMate and a high-lift to raise each tire and build a road under it, then drive off. I've rescued vehicles this way in the past, it's low impact and minimizes the chance of damage.Thinking about how to self-rescue that stock vehicle from that high-centered spot without calling for help.
