Per usual, anything I do will be slightly different than what is commonly accepted as correct and useful. When it comes to winch lines, there is so much bullshit out there that I fear this may be a tougher row to hoe than I suspect if the education is not quick and easily absorbed. So, a few questions for folks to see if this is really something I want to try and do.
1-How many believe that a pre installed piece of tubular nylon sleeve to be used as an abrasion guard has value and should be included?
2-There are lots of ways to anchor line to the winch drum, how many understand that the style with the small screw into the side of the drum actually does NOT anchor the line?
3-How many are okay with the slip knot and over wrapped tail style of anchoring?
4-How many understand that overfilling the drum with extra line has the potential to blow up your winch?
