I like the looks of the Smittybuilt winch, for the price I think its worth a shot.


Also, something I see about winches, my friend snapped his synthetic line like 8 times from straight winching off another truck. Would it take the strain off the line by using a pulley on the winch line and an extension strap to the vehicle being pulled out? That would also increase the pulling power of the winch correct?

Edit: Yes Snatchblocks do help... I googled my own question. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />
