should have used a snatch block and doubled the cable back to the head of the trailer. Would have effectively doubled the pulling power.

I do have one I could try next time

I have one of those for other purposes but good to know it is capable of doing this.

Always use a block to dubble the pull, it's just so easy on everything.

Just an FYI. You should definitely give it a break more often when straining so hard. It's terrible for longevity

If the cable snaps it will kill u , be careful please

I have a badlands 5500 and it pulled a chevy suburban on my trailer just fine. You may need longer ramps or something to help with your pulling angle.

Also my ramps are like yours but they are designed upside down so there are no valleys for tires to fall in

Standing next to the cable during operation is very dangerous.

This is a low tension thing, very low danger. If it was a more powerful winch and an extremely heavy vehicle that was impossibly stuck, then yes it would be dangerous to be near the cable.

@@aDIYCarGuy Looks like plenty of tension to cause injury with that kind of weight! But only saying that so people will be careful.

The little winch that could

It really is! It's pulled many other heavy things onto the trailer, and off using a snatch block
