Sometimes a fear of heights can contribute to other fears, like aviophobia. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is sometimes helpful in treating cases of aviophobia. Aviophobia is a fear of flying.
Re: Increase towing capacity? Postby Z15 Â» Jul 01 2010, 5:59am. With that kind of weight you need to beef up the suspension big time. Air bags are not going to cut it, you need heavier springs, HD shocks, Load range E tires, bigger brakes.
Torque demand, expressed in foot-pounds, is the result of force (line pull) x radius (distance from the drum axis to the outer layer of wire rope). If the line pull remains the same, and the number of layers on the drum increases, the torque required to lift the load (torque demand) increases. For example, assume the line pull resulting from a load on the hook is 16,000 pounds. The radius to the first layer of wire rope is 25-l/2â³ -:- 2, or 12-3/4â³. Torque required to rotate the drum, equals 17,000 foot pounds (i.e., 16,000 x 12.75 -:- 12).
