my old trailer winch is still spooled up. Should actually diagnose and see if worth fixing. that's the only steel cable I've got. I do have a used synthetic hanging around.

I have brand new steel cable from HF 5k winch... not sure if it’s ‘strong’ enough for you

the 5/8" turn buckles im planning to use are rated at 3500lbs working limit.  its to run some tension cables for my Lift I beams.  extra peace of mind to make the bases rock solid. 

Ill take anything thats free, other wise ill find something.  Matt was gona look too.
