Actuall, I was trying to say that they are not created equal. I shouldn't try to write late at night, I tend to make more mistakes, leave out more information, and not get my point across.


Oops! I 'not created equal' is what I meant to say. I guess we both suffer from post-while-tired syndrome!

Yah, we have a set of vbar chains which are heavy duty and have an extra grippy bar welded on. Actually, we also have a pair of sets of diamond sytle too which are a bit more road friendly.

You might consider a tirfor/griphoist style hand winch.
