Can you hook a tow strap to your front tow hook and pull someone out while going in reverse?

That's the best way to pull someone out. That way you can see what your doing.

What about the weird reverse gear of the Liberty though?
Most Libertys shake and vibrate like crazy if backing up a hill.

not the best idea if they are realy stuck
I have seen folks break ring gears while pullin in reverse
I think it has to do with how the power is being applied to the gear in forward vs reverse and the way the gears mesh in the diff that causes problems

So,
Towing in Reverse 2-High or 4-High = Bad
Towing in Reverse 4-Low = Good ?

Nope tow going forward so that YOU can see where YOUR jeep is going
it is up to who ever is driving the other rig to wach where they are going

Besides all of that if you are towing with your back to what ever you are towing and somthing like a hook breaks it must pass through both the rear head rest and the front head rest to hit you towing looking at the other rig your only protection is the winsheild

I guess my KJ must be an odd ball. I do not have a shake in reverse and have had no problem pulling other people out in reverse using 4 lo.

Do a test. Find a hill and try to back up it real slow. That should do the trick.
If you go fast it won't do it.
If you still don't have the fluttering transmission then you're lucky !

My KJ doesn't shake in reverse, fast or slow. I was just out today backing up a hill on a really rough "road" (and I use the term VERY loosely) and I had to crawl because of the ruts. No shaking. Why do we think it's normal for them to shake?
