Uplifting a dead Land Rover Freelander with a locked auto gear box [video] (youtube.com)

I’m not sure if there’s any point to posting YouTube videos on HN, but I thought this was impressive in a number of ways.

It's a cute low profile crawler, no doubt, and handy to have if you're doing a volume of recovery work of bricked vehicles not road adjacent, however this comment:

> This is the only way it could be uplifted and taken away ..

is a bit of a stretch. There are many ways to lift and move a dead weight that won't roll - before this crawler existed there were wheel cradle axles that could be fitted after jacking making a towable brick.
