I have a 24' flat-deck bumper-pull trailer with
the rear 4' drooped at an angle. I used a Wyeth
2 ton come-along (double-lined to a snatch
block) until recently when I mounted an
electric winch (Warn 4 ton, also double-lined
to reduce amperage draw). The hand winch
has loaded full-sized pickups and various
tractors; the toughest being a VAC with 2 flats
on the rear. It was slow but sure, the electric
is, of course, faster and easier. I always block
the trailer at the rearmost crossmember to
keep it level when the load starts up the
dovetail ramp and engage the tow vehicles'
4wd to have all four wheels locked with the
transmission and emergency brake.
