Recon it would be near impossible to "winch" using a ratchet strap, not enough leverage on the ratchet.

Tirfor winch is the way but their not cheap either or particulaly small, think any winch is pretty useless without a land anchor as you know the time you need it there wont be a useable tree in site.

I was about to say that about the spare wheel but then I thought of the prospect of digging the hole!.. xeng is the lazy but logical solution!
