So, say I'm bogged deep, and pulling up hill, doing a double line pull. Say, just as a number, with the double line pull, weight on the winch is 5t. Does that mean weight on the pulley is 10t, and as such, the weight on the shackle holding the pulley is also 10t? I only ask, because I haven't seen too many 10t shackles around. Would using two shackles help spread the load, or is it just making it a more lethal projectile?
Also, if I need to winch a car behind me up a hill, but there is no room to turn around, any drawbacks to hooking the winch to a pulley on an anchor say, to my front left, and from that pulley back to their car - provided I can get the rope to their car without hitting mine or anything in the process?
