The bar I use on a daily basis is pushing 20 years. The back up one I carry is probably 10 years old. And the company one is may 6 or 7. Yep, carry 3, the company one has the lever box in it, have 4 lever binders for that in case thing, Otherwise all ratchet.

Sometimes I'll throw a strap over the cheater and back down to the winch. Then grab my extra bar and tighten the winch down till the binder closes.
Works good till the strap slips and launches my cheater, but it don't happen often.
Always have my hard hat on for safetycke, Deere hunter, Feedman and 3 others Thank this. -
