Small Diameter Chokers
« on: January 21, 2007, 10:22:18 pm »
Where can I buy a couple of small diamter chokers for use from behind a quad, or off a truck winch system?  I have full sized chokes, but they are way to large for what I am doing.

Is that just the hook or all of the unit?

That's a hook designed to choke a chain around a log.
Using a grab hook on the other end gives you some adjustment on the chain.

well I once had either 1/4 or 3/8 cable chokers.  They looked like a kids chokers, but worked great on the shorty logs.  Some jackass stole them from my truck.
