Recovery gear addition just in case I do get stuck, it is for lifting the wheel to enable you to pack under them without lifting the whole car.
It works a treat the strap type is a bit of a pain to do with trying to hole 3 things while it all takes up but the extention on the jack is easy and won't slip out .

This would have been to thing for James when stuck at OCR in the Creek



REMEMBER WHEN USING JACKS TO CHOCK AS MANY WHEELS AS POSSABLE AND APPLY HAND BRAKE AND LOW RANGE FIRIST/REVERSE

These are a great recovery Item but extreem care should be taken using them

This would have been the perfect situation to use it, while James is lifting off the side the tyre is front tyre is dropping and the back tyre is coming off the ground as well.

With this you lift the rim and tyre only to allow you to pack it

yes lifting wheels is a great bonus with an otherwise useless highlift jack

though the strap type is meant to go through holes above the hub line to stop the wheel turning on you
