[QUOTE="ytradio, post: 440241, member: 19779"] The main reason for me choosing steel cable is the fact that in my use of winches I almost never have had an ideal winching situation. The cable is either run over a rock, a log, a hump in the ground, or whatever. And from the reports on synthetic that is a no no, unless you use a sheath of some sort. And that’s just more time and trouble that I don’t want to mess with. Other folks don’t mind, it’s just a matter of preference. [/QUOTE]
