    The A-frame kit (hoist) for M35-let's talk about it

    looks like the old gin pole set up thats been used on front or rear mounted winches, it would be easy to make one, paint it green and nobody would know the difference, we had a bunch of shop built ones in nam, thay were probley better then the military kits
