We're excited to have just introduced a brand new recovery board to the family - the MAXTRAX LITE.
At MAXTRAX, we really exist to bring products that give you the confidence to get into adventures, and the gear to get out again. The all-new MAXTRAX LITE provides a more affordable entry to off-roading for lighter vehicles and those heading out less frequently, meaning there's now a recovery board in our range to suit everyone.
In this blog we wanted to highlight some of the reviews of MAXTRAX LITE coming in from the 4WD community, as well as giving you our own rundown of the entire MAXTRAX family - the Minis, LITE, Mk2s and XTREMEs.
In this video Ronny pushes MAXTRAX LITE to the brink of destruction - Ronny hits the recovery boards while travelling at 80km/hr, bends them to 90 degrees twice, and performs multiple recoveries with everything from a Jeep to his 79 Series.
Ronny then runs through a very honest review of the full range of MAXTRAX recovery boards that will leave you with no questions about which MAXTRAX you should buy.
Ronny's verdict if you're wondering which MAXTRAX are right for you? You'll have to watch to find out... But ultimately, Ronny does a great job of showing that, although they'll take an absolute beating, the MAXTRAX LITE boards aren't designed to be the best or even for every vehicle, but they do have a place for a specific vehicle type and off-road frequency.
Josh Collins does a great MAXTRAX LITE review, running through the full MAXTRAX Family Range:
In Josh's review he also places his MAXTRAX LITE recovery tracks against a rock and rolls his Hilux up on top of them muiltiple times to test their flex and ability to bounce back into shape. Jump to this point here on his review to see that test, and how they bounced back from the flex.
Malin from ExploreJimny gives some great advice for Jimny owners considering their recovery board options, and choosing something that aligns to their roof load limit capacities. MAXTRAX LITE are perfect for lighter vehicles like Jimnys with load carrying restrictions.
The guys at @sidetracked.australia shared their view on the MAXTRAX LITE recovery tracks, noting that they're suitable for lighter or less frequent four-wheel driving, lighter vehicles, and people who are looking for a more affordable recovery board option while still wanting a quality Australian Made product with lifetime warranty.
Massive thanks to all of the four-wheel driving and MAXTRAX community who have shared their LITE reviews so far. Make sure you tag #MAXTRAX and #maxtraxLITE to show us your MAXTRAX adventures!
With four choices in the MAXTRAX recovery board range you're probably asking yourself which MAXTRAX should you buy? Check out Ronny's video above, and our overview below, to answer that question! But here it is in a nutshell!
