Fall is on its way and I am going to pick up the massive amount of leaves with this set up. I saw my neighbor use something similar and it works great. The idea is you rake a bunch of leaves onto at 5x7 or 8x10 tarp, gather the corners lift it up and put into a trailer. No leaves are falling yet so I had a 100 pound dead bush that I needed to put into my truck and haul away. Worked like a champ. Haven't done any permanent wiring just used jumper cables to extend the winch wiring to my second battery. There is a hole drilled for the 3rd j hook to go on the end just need to pick one up. Max weight for the hitch is 400 lbs I think so you have to be careful. Pleanty for what I will use it for. Enjoy
