so i scrapped the strop and pole so much lighter

Do you mean the ratchet? Why?

it was a pain in the ass to carry in a bag .i work on the railway so gotta walk a fair old way .its so much easier to put back up .aswell the problem with the strap if its not on a big tree you cant get it tight enough even with 2 people ! the 10 tone ratchet strap i can get it tighter because there are less ravels on the ratchet if you get my meaning

Where can you get them though and how much?

There always seems to be confusion on those two questions.

the only thing im not sure of is i like to take the winch off easy just incase i hit it with a log

Thanks for this idea. I hope now I'll actually use the device, instead of it sitting in the box.

 

Do you have a picture of yours mounted with the strap? Just curious.

 

I can't see why there will be any difference between a ratchet strap and the factory strap, they both hold the same WLL ratings.

 

This might save me from buying the Stein Rc2001
