Jonas, The further out the A frame is from the winch and the higher the angle of the A frame the smaller load on the cables holding the A frame. If the A frame was straight up and down there would be no load on cables. Most done here in oil patch are behind the winch usually so you can fold up on to headache rack. Oh we call them gin poles here mark
