I really appreciate the Rubber-coated Toggle that switches between Take In and Pawl Release. This is a very well build Come-A-Long (Ratcheting Winch). Cable is much thicker than most other winches, My only issue is the cable Drum should be a tad wider to take up one additional cable width so it wouldn't stack up so tall on the spool. That top wrap gets jammed at the edge of the cable tensioner plate and has to be released wit a screwdriver. - OR - You might make that tensioner plate wide enough that the cable wouldn't get jammed on it's edge. I bought TWO of these and I'm going to convert one to Synthetic Line .... should give me some extra length to run extra snatch blocks to DOUBLE the power ( or pull the ame power, but twice the distance ).
