Paradigm shift, Ratchet Straps can be disassembled. I swear I’ve never considered taking one apart. What a brave new world you’ve made me aware of.

Put a small pulley on the load thus doubling the pull, also an extension handle for the ratchet.

Also Know your tow points and don't over load the line or ratchet or you may end up less of a man than you started

Must be nice to have a big old garage with all the tools and money

Ratchet straps like you used are good and strong. I recently helped a guy get his Honda Civic out of a creek with two. One around a tree to hook the other ratchet strap to. The straps are pretty strong. You can also use the strap as leverage to pull the ratchet handle.

Great stuff sir 👍🏽 Throw in a snatch block, double the pulling force and not a big item to keep on deck.

Yup, I noticed he did have a small b,oak hanging from the end of his, he just didn’t mention it. He could have ripped the four wheel in half even more had he used it!

Really practical, multi-use idea for us woodland handy-persons. Thanks bunches!!

I can listen to your background music all day

Dude! Great idea..i,m a trucker and some times you need to do a little load shift and the ratchet strap does it, but if you want to get smoother operation out of it, use a little wd40 . Slicks it right up and relases soooo much better

Your ratchet strap conversion inspired me to take the cable off my fried winch and run it through a ratchet strap but I left the cable long (40 feet). Just slide the cable through the slot in the ratchet and adjust it to any length. I used it in tandem with a come-along to raise the welded frames for my shop! They are +/- 300 pounds apiece.

Excellent!

I have used ratchet straps for a long time as emergency extraction tools. This video is something I haven't thoughtb of, with the use of paracord-like rope. The only issues I had with using ratchet straps was the strap getting too many wraps and no longer usable, so I always had to use 2, one until full, then the other, in sequence, one after the other. This idea you have demonstrated looks like it would make my way obsolete. Thank yoy.

I'm in the UK, not sure which part of the States you're in but I spent a little time in Mississippi and Alabama back in the 90s and this sure gives me a hankering to go back there again

You just made my day! As an electrician ,I've used them many times for pulling very heavy cables into facilities (three-phase 750 kcmil 500ft) so i knew they were strong, but for whatever reason I just couldn't picture it being able to do longer pulls until you wound that sucker up LOL I thought you were going to use it kind of like a tugger or a capstan, with five wraps and then just let the excess go off the side. But that was great! I've already got a couple taken apart and I'm about to go out now and pull a mini van out of the mud, can't get another vehicle in a good angle to pull it out

Maybe weld a small handle extension onto the ratchet handle for leverage. I'd be curious the breaking point for that setup. Genius idea. Greetings from south texas

An older gentleman, who was a logger for many years, taught me to lay a blanket, chain, etc over the line. It will reduce the chance of the line whipping around and hitting someone if it snaps.

Jaymes Moreland that's correct. We do that anytime pulling something with stored force. They make weighted blankets for winching a lot of off roaders use. That's one of the main reasons people are going to synthetic lines for winches, less stored energy. But you still should put something on the line to protect yourself.

Jaymes Moreland I do something like that when using a chainfall to pull anything horizontally, usually on heavy equipment repairs. I put a heavy moving blanket over the chain so when the tension releases the chain doesn't pop up and hit me

Well it looks like it worked.

I just bought a brand new ratchet strap for trucks at hardware. 16 dollars AUD. It's rated at 2500 kg. I wonder if using 6mm dyneema rope? Would that work? The rope has over 2000 kg rating. Any reply appreciated. Cheers from Australia 🙂👍👍👍top vid.

How much dyenema rope can you get on( feet or metres). Thanks great video.

I thought you were going to place those blue plastic washers BETWEEN the contacting metal surfaces so it slides smoother with very little resistance? Perhaps that's in version 2.0?

HAHAH Just found your KZread page checking out different stuff to do with my new 4 Wheeler. Thats a nice old Hona. Still lots of life left in her!! I just bought a 2016 Polaris Sportsman 850 SP. (well.. it' a year old now), but it has less than 200 miles on it still. I really hope that they make a twin cylinder Yamaha Grizz. They day they do. I'll have one. I went with the Sportsman for the twin Cylinder. Im about 275lbs, and I feel a lot better on a Twin Cylinder. I know a single is fine for anything I do, I just think that a twin runs easier carrying me around on it when it's plowing and what not. Anyways... Great content, Liked and Subbed.

Well, if ya ever need one to borrow. you can use mine. But it's all the way up here in the Adirondack Mountains in NY. LoL

It can probably take way less weight with that knot. I believe it supposed to be spliced. I'm surprised you didn't do it considering it looks alot cleaner. The channel "how not to highline" does tests on all the rooms ect and knots over spliced. and it's kinda hard to believe the advantage on a spliced rope it's Soo much stronger

Awesome, maybe a couple rubber gaskets inside the Teflon to keep them in place
