Little of my time is worth it to help keep people safe.

I have one of those. South Texas salt marshes have very few anchor points. Usually my Hi-Lift along with my spare tire are buried in the ground as an anchor point. Thanks for commenting this it is a viable solution in some situations. Pretty sure the wife would kill me if I started...

A large soft shackle or a proper sized bow shackle with a line damper over it would both work.

Ok I finally set down today and drew up some rough plans on my trailer. Up until now they have just been bouncing around in my head. I'll take these and get with my buddy with the plasma table and get the .dxf files drawn up and hopefully I'll get to get some more done on it. Today I'm down...

I'll have to check it out.

Great write up. I can definitely recommend leg protection. Chain saws don't care if it is a limb or your leg. Watched a saw kick back on my grand father and do some serious damage to his left leg. He got real lucky on this injury and had no lasting side effects but it could have been much worse.

You know the exact areas I am talking about sounds like. I have used the winch carriers before and never much cared for them. The truck always seems to get hung up in such a way that you can't get them in the receiver. The trailer I am referring to will be a purpose built enclosed camp...

Yes the size of the cables is very important this is a great point! Being that I weld and fabricate for a living I don't often even think about mentioning stuff like that. I keep spools of welding lead on hand at all times in various gauges. I just grab what I need off of them for projects...

Thanks for this. Saved for future use.

I am in the process of building my rig and trailer. I have 3 new in box winches sitting in my garage. One of them I purchased for the truck for the front. The other 2 I actually won in a raffle at an off road meet. The wife and I travel solo a lot into the marshy areas if the Texas coast line...

:sunglasses:

There's another sticker on the Prinsu rack. I better get this thing on the dyno stat. And we must not forget the EAF points...

If I am not mistaken I believe the same foundry makes both of them.

Not to mention I'm pretty sure I read they are good for 50 hp each. LoL

So these came in the mail today.

Well the garage is cleaned and I got all my measurements laid out today. I think that is a good place to stop for the day. Now it's taco time.

I see a g2 sticker so I'm going to say Nitro.

Safe travels and look me up if y'all pass through central Texas.

Note to self... Never put another flatbed on a truck that lives in the garage most of the time.

Um.... I think I have got some cleaning up to do today. Better get at it I have a trailer to build!
