Today I was on site at an old convienence store for work. It was a small parking lot, but there was enough room to pull through if you were a competent driver. Enter two men we’ll call Elmer and Fudd. Fudd apparently didn’t check his mirrors, or well, the width of the space we left him to pull through. Fudd backed one wheel into a ditch. This left one of Fudd’s truck’s wheels over the ditch, while one was on the concrete. While laughing my ass off, I notice Elmer explaining how he fucked up, while Fudd was revving the piss out of his poor Cummins(2wd drive, completely stock inb4, FUCKING BROS). He had an open diff. He was not succeeding. This is where the title comes in, I knew the solution. We call it “Redneck Posi” in Alabama, but basically you use your parking break to apply friction causing both wheels to spin. Fudd got out after many minutes of embarrassment. SO, if you are in a bind and need both wheels to spin, apply a LITTLE of you parking brake and give it some gas/diesel. It will save you some of the embarrassment of Elmer and Fudd.

I'll have to keep that in mind.

That’s quite clever.

I’ve never had to use it(4WD life), but I’d always heard that it worked, and today proved that it did. It worked way better than I expected it to. I assumed there would be a little drama, but nope, just pulled right out.

I misread your title as “pro-life tip.” I was like, “ruh roh.”

That’s how the “traction control” in my 1992 Grand Marquis works. It applies a bit of the ABS for you.
