[SEL] 12 volt 2000 lbs winch

[Frank DeWitt]

Looks like a good one but dose anyone know how to convert the rating 2000 
lb winch to a dead lift (Example Hoist)
(The 2000 lb is said to be "Up to 6000 lbs. pulling capacity for rolling 
stock, 2000 lbs. for straight pulling'  Straight pulling what, on what 
surfacer.)
Perhaps a 2000 lb engine on grass and dirt, or perhaps a 2000 lb engine on 
small round stones or maybe on Ice,  I don't know.
