Jeff....remember that stuck I got into last year on Outer Limits where we had to use the Hi-lift. The axle tube was on the rock and we couldn't winch forward or backward because the rest of the rock was jammed up against the tranny, wedged between it, the control arm, and the skid. (slipped off a rock and parked it in the million dollar position, so to speak)

While I prefer to use a bottle jack, there was no way it or a winch or tow stap was getting me out of that situation. As suggested, maybe one person needs to carry one for those every now and then situations?
