FAQ
What should I do if my 4WD is bogged in mud?
Stay calm and avoid spinning the wheels, as this can dig the vehicle in deeper. Reduce tyre pressure to increase traction and try gentle rocking. If conditions worsen, arrange professional recovery to avoid damaging the drivetrain, clutch, or differentials during self-recovery attempts.
How do recovery operators access remote locations?
Operators use off-road trucks equipped with winches, recovery gear, and satellite navigation to reach stranded vehicles. They also rely on knowledge of local tracks and terrain. In some cases, remote communication is coordinated to determine exact GPS locations before setting out, ensuring efficient and safe access.
Can a 4WD stuck in water be recovered?
Yes, water recoveries are possible but require urgent action to prevent engine or electrical damage. Recovery teams use winches or tilt trays to extract vehicles safely. Operators also consider depth, current, and ground stability to plan the safest approach. Post-recovery inspections are often recommended for water-exposed vehicles.
