Recovery Calc

Winch & recovery cheat sheet

Free · Designed for iPad

Take the guesswork out of stuck-vehicle recovery. Recovery Calculator is the first iOS tool built for off-roaders who’d rather finish the trail than star in a viral fail video. Punch in your vehicle's weight, your terrain, mud depth, and slope and get an instant result with clear rigging advice to execute a safe winch pull What You Get • Load Calculator: Calculates the power necessary to execute your recovery and flags when you need to introduce snatch blocks. • Quick Reference Guide: Condensed safety guidance from the legendary Recovery Bible. • Personalized Settings: Store default settings such as vehicle weight and winch rating for quick reference. • Offline-first: No cell service required where the mud is deepest. Why It Matters A 5,000 lb 4×4 buried to the frame on a 30° hill can need more than 18,000 lb of line pull. Guessing wrong breaks gear—or bones. This app crunches the numbers so you don’t have to. Built by Trail Nerds Developed by 4x4 enthusiasts for 4x4 enthusiasts and battle tested on Texas limestone and in the trails of Uwharrie National Forest. Disclaimer Physics can’t protect you from bad decisions. Use proper recovery gear, follow training, and stay outside the line of fire.
