John,

First make sure that you don't yank out the lolly column.
Second, use two cables with pulleys on the attached cable and another to
make up the difference.

I'm sure this thread will bring some interesting comments:)  

     I purchased a Harbor Freight electric winch (440/880lbs) and 
mounted to the bottom of a lolly column in my basement to pull my 
engine-less TR6 up a step from my garage, into my basement.  Only 
problem is that it pulls a little to fast and was wondering if there's a 
way to slow it down without using a pulley arrangement as I wouldn't 
have enough cable.  I know there's not much LBC content but you guys 
seem to know everything.    Thanks for any help.   John Mitchell  76TR6
