Based on the current winch group buy thread...
What is a good guesstimate way to work out how big your winch must be? Forgetting about bigger is better (wife says it is over rated anyway), what is a good size? Obviously the rolling resistance of a LC is nowhere near a winch's limits. One stuck in mud? I recall LB pulling Ryan out of some horrible mud and while the winch was working it's backside off and not sounding happy, it did it.
If you ever caught short, snatch blocks would be the answer but not ideal due to speed and distance.
