This is a cool idea. Not sure about how secure it is on the wheel though.

Lug nuts hold it on.

Turns out most military vics have 'em. I never seen it though

Seen a similar setup, it was a 2x4 ratchet strapped to or through the wheel. To make almost a shoe or snow shoe for sand. Got to have the fender clearance though.

I've seen that before. Its kinda of a neat idea. http://www.bushwinch.com.au/shop-products-2/

That ground anchor looks interesting. Easy to make at home, too. Wonder how well it works in tree roots.

Ground anchors are pretty cool. I don't see why it couldn't work in tree roots if it gets set right. But it might be difficult to remove if it gets wedged into a big root.

I have put some thought into it, a foot or so of auger flighting, welded to schedule 40 them burned to some solid stock. It would hold up to some heavy winching. For most pulls it would be way more than enough. I'm building one. Just have to put a little more thought into the top, the one in the video seems to hold up just fine though.

That's pretty slick.

"Even a female can carry it." That did make me chuckle, how old is that video? But the actual winch looks really cool.
