[QUOTE="macleanflood, post: 458610, member: 23653"] Observe the duty cycle of your winch. That's the best way to keep em alive. Snatch blocks for two or three line pulls for mechanical advantage and to get enough rope off for first or second row pulls. I have a yellow top. Wish I didn't. Capacity doesn't seem to be there. Get a decent AGM. Don't side load your winch. Don't use the tie rods as pull points. Fire extinguisher. Circuit protection. Get the metal out of your recovery gear. Take a class. Enjoy your winch...it's fun getting stuck and self recovering. More fun pulling others out. -Mac [/QUOTE]
