Its my friend Cody... the proud owner of a stock 93 XJ

" your heep, i mean jeeps stunk, i mean stuck huh? "

" yeah... the come along is keeping it from tipping... its half burried... "

so I get directions... climb out of bed.. throw on some jeans and a T shirt.. head out to the rig.. HOLY SH#$ ! its COLD !!!

Head back inside, extra shirt, Coat, change of clothes.... head back out to the rig.

I show up at the stuck place about 12:35... its burried alright... and about to tip over. High centered, about a pretty sharp angle half in this bottomless mud pit, half on dry ground. Poor thing is really stuck... two opposing wheels free spinning...

well I start looking for some recovery points on this trash heep.... none to be found. so Being cold, tired, a little hungry, and post 2 beers, I wrap the chain around the leaf spring. haha start giving it some good jerks, get it aobut half way out, and the front axle really digs in. One more good jerk and PLUNKKKKK BANG.... i think... oh ˟˟˟˟.. I ripped the poor guys leaf spring off !!! Luckly it was the chain... yeah broke the chain. Well I rig it back up, and one final tug and the poor things freed. haha

1:55 am now. Back to bed !

Jeeps aren't so bad.
Your friend isn't very smart for hitting the trail up at night alone.

Using a chain is a good way to kill yourself or a buddy. I suggest you get a quality tow strap and toss your junk chain.

Yoter

No. He was busy grabbing his wardrobe and being skeered of the cold.

Jeep driver begging for a yank in the wee hours of the night...priceless.
