OK, I'm new to Hummers, so don't jump on me for this question:
I thought pulling in reverse was a bad idea due to its stress load on the drivetrain, which is not designed for greater torque in reverse drive.
I always attached tow straps to the rear frame points of my 4 x 4s and pulled forward. Is the Hummer a tougher breed to where towing in reverse is not an issue?
Obviously you can winch from the front by setting the parking brake and tranny in neutral, but that's a situation of stationary pulling where the extraction vehicle acts as an anchor.
