No not the Sony PSP. I'm referring to Pierced Steel Plating, the military used to use it a lot and I've only seen a few other civilian vehicle carry it. I've found a web site that sells the stuff, and a few other different kinds.

Well the stuff looks pretty awesome for the sand, and maybe mud? But does any one here use it, or seen em in used? It seems a little expensive, and I know that's why some of us carry axes, shovels, and the occasional chain saw with us. Other than using nature to get us out does anyone use anything homemade?

I was thinking about getting 2 boards 1-2ft. wide and maybe 4-5 ft. long, reinforcing them and putting something on there for some traction.

Here is a Nissan Patrol forum thread on the MAXTRAX they sound more favored to MAXTRAX when conmpared to ARB tracks http://www.patrol4x4.com/forum/showthread.php?t=14128

Anyone used these?

At 19 lbs each, they're lighter than steel. They add bridging capability (vs ARB ladders). But they're spendy: $278.95 including shipping in US.

:iconbiggrin: Well, I think you guys know I'm a little to old for real EXPEDITIONS, so I don't need any traction "bridge" capabilities so

I got those ARB sand tracks, because they're very convenient/easy to carry/easy to pack away and you can vary the length to suit the terrain--KEWL

The HD bridge sets are needed for real explorations, in wild new country and the rigs used, have racks on the sides to hold up to 6 of these bridges--I don't really need that

Make your choice, I'm standing by mine

:scratch: You guys probably don't remember these LITTLE hinged tracks, I got 4/5 months ago, while setting up a large order from JC Whitney

They're not much and they aren't REAL useful, but for $19.99, they'll do in a pinch and fold small enough, to fit onside my recovery box, just trivia stuff

The ARBs are MUCHO

:pirate::geek::geek: JIMBO

If you're going somewhere with sand or mud, you could go to Lowes first and get two or four 2X6s (or 2"X8") any length maybe 6-8 foot long.
When you get there set them in the fire pit. :violent3:
