Maxtrax MKII Recovery Boards

They work, I've used them. Bought a second set after I buried my first set several feet deep in thick mud. Hint: use the orange leashes that come with the boards!!! My buddy and I found 1 of the 2 lost recovery boards emerging from the mud about 5 months later and it was as good as new.

worth the price...saved my bacon

I purchased these, recommended by 4X4 enthusiasts. I gold prospect in some pretty rough terrain, getting stuck in the desert by myself, I resorted to what was at hand to get unstuck! After that experience, I knew I needed more help than just tumble weeds, to become unstuck! These traction boards are more than I expected. The rigid boards are made with many bumps and protrusions, that help tires get a grip on the boards. The quality was amazing, even though these are one step down from the top of the line. Thankfully, I haven't had to.use them yet, to get out of "sticky" situations. I did use one like a "shovel," to see how well the advertised use would be. Yes, at least with.sand and soft dirt, you can move a lot of dirt. Straps are provided, you attached to the boards, for easy retrieval after use. The boards may get covered with dirt and hard to find otherwise, the straps are bright international orange (easy to see).

I drive a rear-wheel drive 15 passenger van for a hot air balloon crew chase vehicle pulling a small trailer. On rare occasions the van gets stuck mostly on gravel or unmaintained roads after it rains. I purchased two sets of the Maxtraxs just days ago. Last night the van got stuck in deep powdery sand in a field. This was not the a wet muddy gravel road slipping tire situation I intended for the Maxtraxs. This was deep to the hub, off road real world stuck in the sand just like in the videos situation. Two sets of Maxtraxs, a decent shovel, 15 minutes and three attempts the van was unstuck and we were on our way again. I never expected to really need the Maztraxs. There is usually another vehicle around to pull the van far enough along a road to get traction again. I purchased as a backup just in case there was no other vehicle around. In this situation, short of a tractor the van wasn't going to be easily pulled out by another chase tuck or van. I see why these are so highly recommended recommended. These are very sturdy and yet flexible enough to handle the weight of the van in uneven ground. The cost stings. Is Maxtrax worth it? I knew nothing of recovery and extraction tracts a week ago so I could not say what is great, good enough or not good when I purchased the Maxtraxs. I could only judge based on reviews and videos that the Maxtraxs are the choice if money was not consideration and serious use was intended. I could not afford to try something just to have the product break and fail while customers were looking over the shoulder. Not in my business. I paid the extra cost because I figured either these will work or not. At no time did it appear as if using these tracts working was going to be a wing and a prayer.

I purchased these about five years ago for a Toyota. I can say I have never needed to use them (knock on wood). I would invest in a carrier for your truck or jeep. That is the only thing I need to keep them out of the truck bed.

The off-road standard in recovery of your stuck vehicle. I never leave home without them. Works just as well in snow as it does for mud and soft sand.

Durable

this color did not match my 2012 FJ trail teams despite the name FJ red! i returned them and got black which looks 100x better. glad i purchased real max trax. they look awesome and i’m confident they’ll perform when i need them to.

Saved us from being stuck in slush in the mountains. Heavy duty material shows no signs from using with our truck. Thank you Maxtrax!
