snatch block is essential, which will double up that pulling power for the 8500.....get a tree saver and some d shackles....a good winch kit is worth it weight in gold...

Short version: A pulley you can attach to another vehicle or fixed object to change the direction of pull on the winch.

Here's a quick vid I found of someone using a snatchblock (pulley)...I do not recommend doing as the camera man does....standing so close to a winch during a pull.....if line snaps, can be deadly
you can use it in multiple ways, and they double or triple the power of your winch, depending on how many snatch blocks used...just do a search on youtube and there are many vids of using them.

Metal winch line could cut you in half under load. Syn line is much safer under load and after a line break. But It does cost more... Prob. Worth it in the long run.
