Here is a a glacial video.
This is how we use the crawl gear.
This snow was hard to drive in, if you spin the wheels, you are stuck right away

Tire pressure 1,5-2 psi.
Will post some photos later on.

So you have a good advantage over the bigger 4x4's on the snow it must be a pain to try and tow someone out is it even possible??

Yeah it can be a pain..

We use a rope that it bounces, so you dont use the towers power, you back up near the stuck truck, hit the gas if possible, and let the weight of the tower "bounce" the stuck car up.
We use the winch if that is not possible.

Will post more pics soon, have driven the Jimny about 15000 km in one year

I am putting 38" tires on it now. (AT 405)

Thanks

.

Now the jimny is rolling on 38" tires.

AT 405. 15.5" wide for 15" rim.

I mounted it on a 10" wide rim, it would be better to have it on a 12 or 14" inch rims.
