For a lift, sorry, nothing yet, I can barely keep up with ranger and sportsman lifts right now but that should change soon with some help.
The fairlead should fit your winch if you have a 2500 winch or whatever winch it is if the fairlead mounting holes are 4-7/8" apart.

I would love too, but I'm guessing CA stands for California, and I'm in Canada, near Buffalo NY.

Ok.

I hate to say it....cause I love rope....but after my week in Moab....I will NEVER go to Moab with rope again...STEEL ONLY.

When you're winching up 15 feet high....I did not like my rope GRINDING on sandstone..it's all trashed...and I was using the sleeve and a Hoodie...

If you look at this picture...I have my sleeve, but since we're using a snatch block, the return line is rubbing on the rock....So...you also see a STEEL cable as a safety.

When you're THIS HIGH.....I didn't trust it rubbin'...save the SYNTH for snow.

Interesting. I had not thought of that. I might put my cable back on for summer!

It was nerve wracking Keith....the only points I was really nervous, was winching up Widow Maker on Metal Masher trail....we tried to have a secondary line, but the 2nd set of winch pliers (a different design than the first pair) slipped....so I was on 1 line going up 8 feet....

Remember...in this same spot...the steel cable literally cut into the Sliprock and made grooves.

Can't wait to see the video Thomas shot of the trip.

How many days was he out there with you guys. And is the MM3 going to be any longer this time??

I'm not sure I'd even be on the machine for that pull, Ken. Though I don't see anyway to walk it up during, either.
