Funny thing, I was trying to winch out a bottle brush stump for my neighbor yesterday. 1st time I have put aload on the winch. Had it in low, slowly let the clutch out to take up the slack, stump started to move and the front of the truck kind of squated. pushed the clutch in and the cable slacked up, started to re engage the winch, nuthin, sheard the pin. Had the e-brake on, the truck didn't try to move...the front wheels were against a curb though. Would have thought the shear pin was a tad more robust! Have used winches b4..maybe it's the torque?
