Title: Winch in Auburn
Post by: Lytles_fjc on December 28, 2014, 01:25:24 PM
We have the FJ stuck in the backyard. Sitting on the frame in a big mud hole.
I have tried all the trucks and tractors we have. I am located in Auburn outside of decula.
If anyone has a winch that can help please call 770-616-3173.
Thanks
Danny

Post a pic including the surrounding area.  Might need a way to anchor the winching vehicle(s) if the area is slick.  I could come out sometime tomorrow if it's still stuck.

Kvom thanks for the offer.
We have got all the trucks out.
Doug came over and winched us out.
THANK YOU DOUG!!!!
We had a jeep, the fj, a john deer tractor, and a Chevy 1500 stuck in the backyard. (http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/14/12/28/27dfa9426ff2112f9ac6c6dd1ad7e33f.jpg)

Thanks again

Private property.  Somebody lost a bet and then didn't make it.  Buried the big tires and axles.  Had 2 flats when we got it out.

Actually the tractor wasn't stuck. Battery died. In the end the tractor pulled the Jeep out.

I got my truck stuck in my backyard today and had to use the jeep to extract it.

Yep, they loaded up quickly and wouldn't release the mud.
