winch line

  • Looking for a replacement steel winch cable... didn't get mine spooled tight enough and kinda killed it. Length isn't too important. Either 5/16 or 3/8" cable is fine.


    I'd consider synthetic if the price is right, but will have to modify my drum to make it work... steel is easy replacement.

    I already replied to FZMax, but I'll let you know if it changes.



    65 feet is pretty short.

    Maybe my fault for saying "Length isn't too important". I meant more of standard 80-125' lengths. Still, I don't know if I'd feel comfortable using a Harbor Freight steel winch cable or hook...

    I have some pretty terrifying experiences when it comes to cast China steel in load holding devices. I use China stuff all the time but am very cautious since I have seen first hand how pencil whipped their quality checks are.
