What's new

Fucked up my winch cable

Just got some of this. Looks the same, few different sizes, multiple colors...

And they won't ship to me either. :laughing:

Somebody want to make some money selling bootleg winch rope in the frozen north?
 
Look around your area for a rigging shop, they can clamp a new thimble on there for pretty cheap.

I am rocking some Amazon rope but I didn’t get a chance to use it in the bush… I did spool it under tension and used a 1 ton CJ that is benching 7000lbs. We had the brakes locked on and pulled up hill. No breakage…

My rope is grey but looks like you are stuck with green

 
I've had new thimbles swedged onto winch cables a few times. I was able to drive my truck into NW Wire in Seattle's shop close to the machine and just un spool enough cable to reach. Ten minutes, $20, and done! No need to remove the cable from the winch to get it done, unless the guys at your local cable shop are jerks.
