Location: MN		Good post Jon. I also have a 690 and I believe I'm on the edge with mine, even though when done right we only need to crank it up that last 8-12 inches, on bunks and uphill it can require some force. My question is do you understand the ratios on winches? Seems backwards to me - but is it like fishing reels, where the lower gear ratio, bigger handle makes for more power and easier cranking? If I'm going to replace it I want to get one sturdy/strong enough, but also want to get one that is a bit easier as well. What weight rating are you going to end up with on your rig? I have to be somewhere in the 1500-2000 range.
