    I put that Plymouth on a pedestal!

    I get it....That is a The 40 year old virgin reference. I used to have a back and forth thing with my brother on movie quotes...man that was fun.

    What winch are you using on your car trailer?

    I’ve engaged in similar hijinks. I’ve put tires a few feet behind cars to stop the car from rolling away.

    What winch are you using on your car trailer?

    The 6000 lb version of the TSC winch has that synthetic rope people seem to like.

    What winch are you using on your car trailer?

    Harbor Freight had this: That just seems unusually cheap. Tractor Supply Company had this, I posted it earlier: Then for almost double, they had this: I’m conflicted. I rarely ever default to the cheapest of anything but at the same time, I wonder how often I’d use whatever I...

    What winch are you using on your car trailer?

    That is funny. I say offensive things too. This is my first trailer and it sure isn’t as if I prefer using the Come Along. I am physically capable of using it, I already had it and have used it because I wasn’t sure if I’d be hauling many things to warrant the purchase of a winch. I don’t walk...

    What winch are you using on your car trailer?

    Tractor Supply has this: It seems that if the dead vehicle still rolls, the rating of the winch might not matter as much? I wonder what they mean? Would 4500 lb mean it could lift 4500 lbs if it were dangling in the air? Pulling a car that rolls isn't nearly the same.

    What winch are you using on your car trailer?

    I got a car trailer last year. So far, I've dragged 4 dead vehicles up on it using a hand ratcheting "come-along" and a chain. The heaviest was a 5000 lb Saturn SUV. That sucked! I want to look into a medium duty winch to make this easier. I want something reasonably light that I can...

    Mine was simple and cheap....built with things I already had here.

    The progression of things

    Ha ha....fell off a roof and lived to tell about it. No permanent harm done, neither! How many of YOU guys could do the same? I've developed a way to land like a cat!

    Safety is for fags. REAL men know how to do unsafe things without getting hurt.

    Car Lift.. 2 Post/4 Post? Your Experience

    The wife and I have been looking at the Zillow listings for a new place to live in Arizona. We have seen places with workshops with high ceilings, apparently for RV storage. I see those as prime opportunities for a 2 or 4 post lift. I'd gave to test the slab for thickness before I'd trust a 2...

    Car Lift.. 2 Post/4 Post? Your Experience

    I went in after that picture was taken and slipped in rebar at the bottom.

    Car Lift.. 2 Post/4 Post? Your Experience

    You want to see overkill? 24 x 24 16" deep at my shop! Yeah....I played it safe on my own place!

    Car Lift.. 2 Post/4 Post? Your Experience

    Okay. I did know a guy that used to cheap out and buy actual bags of concrete for his various jobs...

    Car Lift.. 2 Post/4 Post? Your Experience

    No concrete from a bag is going to be adequate for a 2 post lift. You need a minimum of 6 inches of thickness to safely support a 2 post lift and rebar in the concrete is strongly recommended. The rock in commercially mixed concrete is often 3/4" crushed gravel and is far bigger than what you'd...

    Finally time to pull the trigger . . . starting on the New (much anticipated) SHOP - Build

    You are fortunate to have the space to build a shop of that size. Good for you.
