Stuck, really stuck

   / Stuck, really stuck #112  

If recovering an imported vehicle, can you use an SAE snatch block or will metric be required? o_O
I have metric ones for the Unimogs and standard versions for Jeeps and the M936.

I carry one of each in the trailer toolbox since I don't always know in advance what will be winched up on it. Also, these days it's important to check the percentage of contents of vehicles since some "imports" are made in the USA and some domestic vehicles are made outside of our borders.

Equally important, the snatch block should also match the size of the wire rope. For example, the pictured one does not work well with 3/4" cable.
