A) I'd suggest installing a shorter bolt in any threaded socket in the driveway when not in use. It'll keep the trash out and make a minimal bump to go over.
B) The pic, from this afternoon's respooling. I used the camper as an 'anchor' and set the parking brake on the Toyota part-way to provide resistance, I had to rig double-line since my back lot isn't large enough to put the whole length of wire rope out.
You can see the squeegee handle. Push in under the wire, and pull up against the wire. From the scars, you can see that it's had some use. I prefer wood since I know it's soft enough not to damage the wire.
This 8K Warn is about 18 years old, tho' it hasn't been used a lot for the past 12 or so. It's on an early '95 Toyota 4x4 pickup that only has 70,000 miles on it.
