Back tire stuck in wet ground

Thanks to all for responding. Ed is reviewing all and will be back at work on it tomorrow.
Fortunately in our yard and not too urgent. We were getting it ready to take to mechanic to work on our jacks. One had been stuck down so in getting it up think weight shifted and tire dug further in. All jacks now up. It’s a very heavy MH. Will let you know how we do (we not me but the guys). Haven’t looked at it yet but utube video looks very helpful. Putting rocks and carpet piece in hole too. We have plenty of wood.
Speaking of Jacks have you ever heard of https://trailerlegs.com/ guess kind of new on market. Ed’s going to research but thought since 2002 MH instead of paying mechanic to find parts and work on jacks maybe go with Legs idea.
Thanks again for the help...very appreciated.

That is a really poor tow truck driver. Usually they just back their truck up on to solid ground, let out more cable and pull.

A snatch block will allow the pull from a different angle.

I have a 30 ton 4" diameter 30' long braided nylon strap that I can no longer lift. Quicksilver at 18,000 lbs snatched a fully loaded propane bulk truck out of a ditch. Boy did it ever stretch the strap. I tried three times, the last one almost bumper to bumper. Quicksilver has a 100 pound Pintle hitch. Heavy rigs are a challenge. Good luck to you!

I got out once by jacking the vehicle and putting firewood in the hole. Since we were camping firewood is what was available.

If you have leveling jacks it should make it real easy.

Yep-- did that once too

scrap plywood under the tires

get a winch double lined and hooked to the rear axle housing itself. Don't pull on brake lines and wiring there is no strength there :)

be gentle and take your time. Don't let the winch operator drag stuff that will break on the ground.

steer the front past the ruts from the rear.

Call a different "Heavy Duty" tow company.

Have tried several different methods to get unstuck. The issue with using wood in any form is if stuck due to water the tires will slip on wood. Water and mud acts as lubricant! Tiny gravel, sand anything added to gain traction on the wood.

I carry scrap wood leveling blocks. I paint them and add very coarse sand while the paint is wet. Color choice is up to you LOL

Traction mats get very good reviews...

Thanks for the help! We used dirt, rocks, wood, carpet piece, Traction’s mats and in the end 4x8x16 cement blocks to roll it up on! We have reasonable nice front lawn tow service would tear it up pulling it out from back so didn’t go there. Laid cement blocks all the way to fence gate so when ready to take her to a shop to work on jacks can go. While she is gone will configure block so under tires and jacks. Side note shop ordered parts from Newmar and very long wait.

Thanks for the update & congratulations on the success!
