M35 winching ....

A couple "basic" questions....

We know that the military uses a different method (read conservative) for
rating "loads", and I remember the recent discussions about the towing
capacity theoretical vs. rated vs. real world...... how about the 10,000 #
winch capabilities?

In other words if i stick this thing will the winch pull it out (10,000 vs
13000+ if stuck) ?

What are the shear pins rated for?

Oh and what was the consensus on winch lube? (that debate got heated if i
remember)

thanks
