The line that goes between trees needs to be stronger than the line that runs over the pullies.


MP,
I'm not sure I understand why that needs to be?
IF all lines will hold more than your lifting I can't see a problem unless your putting far more load on the system than you need to lift the pack.
Those Cooke Custom lines are rated 450# and I retrofitted my rig to use them everywhere.

Am I asking for trouble?
