who has tried? who has failed? and who has succeded?

i managed it with a selection of differant sized strops and chains to move both my rangie and ambulance in tight spaces up and down hills Laughing
takes a while but gets there in the end
i have seen a few funny attempts this year Laughing

but great as a last resort
