Stuck Pictures

Thought I'd start a post with stuck pictures.


This was on the way to a favorite surf spot this morning. you can read a little bit more at www.sandcruiser.com/blog

not a very fun "wheelin" trip, only about 15 feet of real mud. Unfortunately, those 15 feet were pretty bottomless, and I wasn't in 4wd when I hit it :(

Here is my stuck this past year, right after I dug my rig out enough to climb out.

Is that when you realized you forgot your surf board?

Did you get warranty on that High Lift? They could use that pic on one of their adds.

I had a 60" Hi-lift bend in that manner lifting a fullsize Chev pickup out of a snowy ditch. Came back to mostly normal when we were done. Always had a bit of a curve though...

if you look very very carefully, you can see the 9.0 in the blue boardbag w/ a red 6 foot-something on top of it. Inside. Cuz there's no rack.

Besides, a 9.0 fits *perfectly* from the dash to the rear hatch. Heck, a 9.2 would probably fit fine.

Great snow stuck. What the *hell* happened to that hilift? and to what were you winching.

I tried hard for a warranty for same reasons. I had owned and used that jack for 30 years before that day. Hi-Lift did send me a new bar for $22.00 shipped

I was kidding.


I'm used to seeing then strapped to the roof or hangine out the back of a hatchback car.

Haha, Very cool man...gotta love cruiserheads who also surf..life altering hobbies.

I remember being so stuck in the rocks that 3 winches had trouble getting me out. I had to hi-lift the front end of my truck up and then let them winch me out of it. I torqued my rear drive shaft in half after it got a dent.

My 'stuck' pic is embarrassing. Picture Mtmn99, but with bald tires, out in the street in front of my house. After a couple ft of snow I tried to pull out my neighbor. She's a nurse and was trying to get to the hospital.

A 9.2 fits fine in a 60. I got stuck on that back road from Negra to Junquillal a couple years back (got some pics but can't find em). Got pulled out by Tim and Jim in their red 40.

Pura vida!

high centered. This is the only way I've been stuck in my 60, other than when my ARB aircompressor wasn't working....
