Some questions after reading this thread:

If your cable is in good condition, and you have the mil spec shear pin, is there any way you could snap the cable? Just a safety question - I am sure the designers had personnel safety at the fore front - just wanting confirmation.

Second: why on earth is it rated at 10K? Good lawrd, the wee electric winch on my Jeep is rated at 8K. Does the pin shear at 10K? Is that the idea?

When a pin shears, does the cable just drop to the ground? I would assume at worst the drum might spin in reverse a could of time as it unloads - has anyone observed this?
