which GEAR to use when TOWING a STUCK vehicle?

[Olive Drab]

is it necessary to engage in 4L or 4H?

Depende sa gravity ng situation. Pero kung short burst lang, mas madali humatak in 4L.

2H or 4H.

If the vehicle is stuck in deep mud and cannot move and it requires some effort to dislodge the vehicle, the towing vehicle will be better off using 4L so as not to strain his engine and wear out the clutch unnecessarily. If the vehicle is stuck due to traction probblems (slippery surface) and only needs minimal effort to nudge the vehicle out, 4H should be okay. As a rule of thumb, if the towing vehicle starts to stall as it tows the stuck vehicle, engage 4L. Hope this helps.

thanks Wolverine for the tip.
