Hey guys I just wanted to fill you in on a great tool I found,at a phenominal price.
I know..I know..."I know about these" but wait.......This is less than half the price of a Hi-jacker!!
I lost my HJ last season,it got bucked off my sled and I didnt ralize it till I went to use it.No chance in hale I would find it again.
Ya...I'm out $350 + dallars.
The guys that make this system are in Co.and its about half the price of the other.Heres a link to the web site.Hope I just made your day

You trying to sell something than you need to go through the site admin to become a vendor. Or your breaking site policy. Once to say how happy you are is ok, but when you post it in every sub form your obviously selling something... And btw high jackers are a waste of money. They dont work in powder. In set up snow they are ok, but in powder they suck.
Recognizing that I volunteered as a Ranger, fully knowing the hazards of my chosen profession, I will always endeavor to uphold the prestige, honor, and high esprit de corps of the Rangers. Acknowledging the fact that a Ranger is a more elite soldier who arrives at the cutting edge of battle by land, sea, or air, I accept the fact that as a Ranger my country expects me to move further, faster and fight harder than any other soldier. Never shall I fail my comrades. I will always keep myself mentally alert, physically strong and morally straight and I will shoulder more than my share of the task whatever it may be, one-hundred-percent and then some. Gallantly will I show the world that I am a specially selected and well-trained soldier. My courtesy to superior officers, neatness of dress and care of equipment shall set the example for others to follow. Energetically will I meet the enemies of my country. I shall defeat them on the field of battle for I am better trained and will fight with all my might. Surrender is not a Ranger word. I will never leave a fallen comrade to fall into the hands of the enemy and under no circumstances will I ever embarrass my country. Readily will I display the intestinal fortitude required to fight on to the Ranger objective and complete the mission though I be the lone survivor.

So you want people to put an extra like 50 pounds on to ur sled?
All that thing looks like it would do is bary itself into the snow as well. So you would have your snowmobile stuck and a huge piece of metal barried by your feet while your trying to dig out. What a tool you are.
If you cant fix it with duct tape, tylnol, or band aids your screwed.

In my opinion, i9f you can't even get you sled unstuck by yourself or maybe a buddie if your really stuck, then you shouldn't be riding the sled you have..

Although I won't ever buy one of these because I have friends that can help get me unstuck, the Jack is useful. I've seen it used in the mountains. What I'm noticing here is there are a bunch of people who probably don't ride the mountains where this is most useful, which is why many don't see it as a good product to buy. In the mountains their are areas where it is hard to get a good lift on your sled because the snow is so deep and its hard to get leverage. Thats where this product becomes handy. It wouldnt be as useful in the ditches or on the hardpack many people around here ride. That being said, it serves a purpose and can be useful. Just another product or accessory to buy for your sled. Don't knock it till you try it.

Having lived in MT I know for a fact they suck. They dont work until you hit a base, it is more work, maybe not as hard work but more period to use one. Throw the added weight and they wont go in any serious mtn riders kit. UP snow sure, Spring snow maybe, not as advertised.

Ya but for the jack to actually lift it would need to dig itself to the bottum of the snow. So it wouldnt matter if ur using the jack or lifting it urself whatever is lifting it up is still taking the weigh and will still sink regardless. I dont run mountains but we get pretty deep snow aorund here and these just seam like extra weight and probably extra work as well.

Sorry for trying to share something I thought was a good deal and a good product to save your back when getting stuck.

The extra added wieght is not noticable at all and once you have tried it you would see how well it works.
