I really can’t say, it pulled my old truck backwards while winching a log, but that was on gravel. I haven’t pulled more than a few logs with it so far. I would guess 3 ish tons, the cable is rated around 7,000 lbs for a single line, but I use a snatch block, to double the capacity.
A very clean design mechanically and attractive paint job. Congrats.
Hey thanks for the nice comments Bob! I enjoy making unique things.
How many tons is the capacity of this kind of winch? Thank you! 😊

Looks good.
Putting the old red truck out to pasture eh
Sooner or later, the red trucks going into retirement!
