Also chinn, I found out that you dont want to pull your winch line out like that. Your brakes on your winch are made only to work when pulling the line back in so when you pull your line out like that so much youre actually working against the brakes and can burn them out. its ok to do it a little if the line gets stuck or if you need just a hair more but mostly you want to disengage the clutch and manually pull it out

Haha nice solution. Can't work on jeep so why not brake it 
I don't feel like getting my re-muddy right now but I wouldn't mind going with my truck (to use only for pulling someone out).
I am going to plasti dip my truck rims tonight
