    And its called Superwinch.

    After spending 2 hours on Saturday trying to pull, draw and haul the FIAT into the garage I bought a winch.

    2000LBS 12v winch. Its almost civilized.

    I'll put it on the "future" trailer, but for now its a great way to get the FIAT back into the garage.

    My trailer came with one. I'm a fan.

    Bought the accessory kit last night to make this a little safer.

    I'll be using this rule. In the garage and trailer.

    Physics Law #2: double the line with a Pulley Block and double the pulling power of your winch. Removing extra rope from the drum to use with a pulley block not only doubles winch power, it allows you to work in the Pulling Power Zone™
