    custom trailer hitch with rotating snatch block for rear winch bumper

    Looks like a good Idea. I would try for a pulley size that is about the same as the winch drum. If you go too small you risk damaging the cable by sharp bending over a small pulley. Another thing to consider is that your snatchblock is probably going to be pretty close to the winch. This...
