Crusty
I bought one from Harbor Freight(not a fan) like the picture you posted last. I mounted it to a flat bed trailer to pick rock with for a retaining wall. I probably over loaded it at times but over about 8 yrs of use I have put 3 boat winches on it, then paid $100 for a hand winch with cast gears, bent the shaft the upper piece spins on, replaced it with some 1/4 wall tube. Pulley at the end of boom are to small so increased pulley diameter to 1 1/2 in. Now it works great, so yes I use it a lot and its worth spending the money for a good one.
