Truth is, it can be downright dangerous. There are lethal forces at work when lifting a heavy vehicle on any off-road terrain. Read this book and learn how to raise your vehicle correctly with the right jacks, tools, and accessories.This InfoBook also covers the topic of in-field tire repair. Whether you are a seasoned off-roader or new to vehicle-supported adventures, your chances of having a tire problem in the remote backcountry are good. It's not a matter of if you will have tire problems off road, but when. Read this book and prepare for the day you damage more than one tire in the backcountry.
