I have the winch downs in the back of my van for hauling the ATV all the time I took the winchdown and used it as a portable bow press and had it working in 10 minutes. I folded the strap stuck it through the gap below the eccentrics stuck the hook through the loop and hooked it over the strap that goes back to the winchdown, I did this on both sides and cranked it down till I had just enough slack to change the string.
