Does anyone currently make a come-a-long that isn't a total piece of shite? I've seen some old ones that look pretty good but does any company currently produce good ones? It would be great if I had one that doesn't bind and warp under heavy loads. TIA

Sure they do. We use them every day in plant construction. Get ready to fork out some change but I can show you a 3 ton come along that will last forever if taken care of

As mentioned, Harrington and JET are good along with ingersoll rand. I'd opt for a made in the USA come along for lifetime use though. Nothing from Asia.

Apparently once you get to this quality level its a "lever chain hoist," not a come-along!

Harrington is the best hands down...... even better than Jet. Worked 12 years with them.

If there was a high enough demand for these I might would start a black market on come alongs.
