I have found that it doesn't depend on what the vehicle is stuck in. If the vehicle is being pulled out forward, put it in "drive" and hit the gas slightly. If it's bein pulled out backward, then put it in "reverse", and hit the gas slightly. If the recovery vehicle is applying enough force, then the stuck vehicle won't have to pound the gas in order to "help out" that much. You can break an axle in pretty much any terrain.
