Hi,

I bought a new winch strap for my trailer and just looked at the load capacity for the strap when I bought it. As I was reading it later, it said that the load should not exceed 1/3 of the total capacity. The strap is rated to 5000# and my rig runs around 2500# including gas, oil, equipment, etc. Since this is about 1/2 it seems that I need to buy another strap. Is this overkill, or should I follow these guidelines exactly?

thanks
