JET 3-Ton Manual Lever Chain Hoist, Model# JLP-300-10 | Manual Lever Chain Hoists | Northern Tool + Equipment
I purchased one of these from a garage sale about 2 years back.. I have used it several times to pull cars/trucks on on to car haulers.. This Saturday, I finally got use it for the reason I bought it.. I was able to pull my truck out with very little effort at all..It was only snow. I was hung up on the pigs and the frame.. I just walked her off with this unit..

If I remember correctly, the handle on the Grizzly is about 20-24 inches long. You have to pull fairly hard to generate 3 tons of force. I have a 1-1/2 ton model as well, and it is much smaller than the 3 ton.
