I'm in the market for a new winch strap for my trailer. Amazingly they don't like getting caught in the winch gears.... What I can't figure out is what capacity it needs to be. Most heavy duty 2" straps seem to have a breaking capacity of 10000lbs and a working load of anywhere between 2000-4500lbs. It's to get my 270 up the last 1.5-2' without having to power up. The heaviest I can get locally is 4000lbs working / 10000lbs breaking in nylon. Any ideas?
