  2. I will only say this. Standing between or anywhere near winch lines under any tension is a very bad idea. If they are using nylon lines it's not as bad but those look like steel. I have an 4 ton winch mounted in an ARB front end on my Tacoma and it is not a toy.

  6. Seems like a totally different vehicle in your pictures. The one in your picture has hood vents. The one in the link above didn't have vents in the hood. What???

    They got the one pictured out, and much later the 2nd.
    Once they pulled it up and out, they kinda drove it out. Pretty beat up.
    I guess they didn't know it was impossible, and did it any way?
