5 Ton Saves Broken El Chromino From Pit of Death, but can I fix it???

[@cindybrookins6246]

Matt, my hubby is a 65 yr. old 3 1/2 year massive stroke survivor. He can't read write or speak and bedridden with vascular dementia. He has been watching your videos on KZbin since coming home from the hospital in 2017 his son knew he would like your channel and it's been on every since. Well you and Andy Griffith. Most days he want let me change the channel to anything else watching all videos hundreds of times over the past 3 1/2 yrs I am sure. He was a master mechanic and manufacturer maintenance. Thank you for keeping him entertained during these hard times. He really enjoys watching you and the family. I also have enjoyed watching your channel with him. Oh BTW this is the 1st time I have ever posted a comment on KZbin. Thank you all for the wonderful comments. I have been reading them to him. The smiles are really awsome. Off the ranch family your have brought a lot of light to him the yesterday and today. I sure can't change the channel now. LOL I don't mind I like it to.. thanks to all.

Just getting caught up after Spring Break with the kiddos: Winching Tip: stand a tire up under the winch line to raise the object you’re trying to winch to keep it from digging in to the ground.

Matt, the red part is there to tell you to not winch unless it is on the spool. Winches need a full wrap, otherwise you can and will (eventually) rip the rope off the winch. Also, winches will overheat so make sure you don't overwork them. A rule of thumb is 20 seconds on, 20 seconds off. You're welcome.

You were fine with a couple wraps. no less then you originally had though. you winch pulls at it greatest capacity on the first couple of wraps and then slowly decreases pulling capacity with each wrap. Ideally, you would pull from max extension to about 20-25% and then reposition with a snatch block or other so that you can pull again with most all line pulled out. Rinse & repeat.
