Thanks for the tip. Actually the wheels on my hoist do swivel though. If I deside to pull with the tranny I'll definintely pull from the front, but without the tranny the side still seems better perhaps thanks to my swiveling hoist wheels at both front and rear of this hoist.
I'll consider your tip (especially the couch cushions and beer) as still a possibility, and the voice of experience is helpful.
Thanks, Don
