With another truck. Either push it, or try to use the winch.

Pushing it would be a bad idea. Your best bet would just be to rescue the truck to the garage & try again. :NZA2_Pentagram:

Exactly...if you cant rescue a truck manually in hardcore then its pointless to play hardcore as the chance to tip over is pretty high.
I was thinkin there might be a crane to lift it out, but cant find one. And with only 2 hook points at back and front there is no way to upright the vehicles if they tip.

You can winch any truck with any other truck. I used the UAZ to winch a turned over logging truck back up out of the river.

Just wedge the UAZ into/on a tree and hook the winch to the stuck truck. I play on HC more and have had to get a "rescue" truck a few times.
The winch seems to have unlimited pulling power, limited only by the weight and traction of the truck its coming from.

I have some good videos of winching other trucks out of the river and tuned over, just havent had time to edit and upload them.

As long as you have something with a winch and some way to get the winch to the stuck truck you can get it out.

Like I said above, I got the logging truck stuck flipped on its side in a river on the coast map. I wedged the UAZ on a tree and used the winch from the UAZ to the logging truck to flip it back over and pull it out of the river.

Once you find the bigger trucks like the 8x8 and the 8x8 tow truck you should easily be able to rescue anything.
However, if they get stuck I am not sure what you could do.

I flip back any truck if i want to... you just need training :P

Problem is that it is a D-537 with medium logs that flipped and the E-7310 can't move it. And even if it could move it the D-537 would just be dragged along on its side.

I may seem stupid but I cant find the answer, I tipped my truck over on the first map, coast, now you say I should get another truck, but how do I get back to base/the garage into a different truck??

edit; oh I get it, F1 and select it in the minimap..

Thanks for editing in how you did it. I've been trying to figure that out for a while now.

Like Titan357 said, you need to find a place where you can winch the truck perpendicularly to tip it back over. If you've tried everything and there's not much room to manuever where the tipped truck is, drag it along its side to somewhere with more options. You might damage it fully but if you do you can bring a repair add-on to get it going again.

I have to say I haven't tipped the D series truck yet... congrats on pulling that off, hahaha.

Done it with a winch but another more effective technique (except may need to winch / pull it out of the water firrst) is to use the crane like a hook over the flipped vehicle then drive backwards to pull it upright.

Winch for sure, just look which way you want it to flip and use winch
