- In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are different.
The key with the team that had the come-along is that they used both. The competition was timed. So two people cranking on two pulling devices was helpful.Conversely, a High Lift can come up and bite you if you aren’t careful and you have that heavy jack suspended up in the air just waiting to fall and crush something if a strap breaks. 6 of one, half dozen the other I guess.
Not necessary most of the time out in the field.
