Greetings all.
The Tirfor style winch was designed for lifting as well as pulling, and I assume the giant hook on the end of the cable is great for lifting purposes, but seems a tad too large for hooking onto shackles or rated tow points.
Is there any good reason not to cut the thing off, and just use the eye in the cable that the hook currently attaches to, and discard the extra kilos and bulk the hook comprises?
Cheers
Ian
