I wonder if these might serve as something like a very small version of a MaxTrax or some such.  I can't imagine they'd hold for small bridging use.Yep, they're expensive at $99 each.  But, given what they offer I think its worth it.Find them here:  <a href="http://www.offroadtrailtools.com/shop/index.php?l=product_detail&p=462" target="_blank">http://www.offroadtrailtools.com/shop/index.php?l=product_detail&p=462</a>Here are a couple reviews of them in use:<a href="http://www.offroaders.com/directory/products/ORTT_Wheel_Chokes.htm" target="_blank">http://www.offroaders.com/directory/products/ORTT_Wheel_Chokes.htm</a><a href="http://www.4x4wire.com/new-products/practice-safe-winching" target="_blank">http://www.4x4wire.com/new-products/practice-safe-winching</a>I'll post up some pics when they show up, and if time allows I'll actually try using them by <a href="http://www.svtoffroad.com/showthread.php?575-Hi-Lift-Jacks&p=3639&viewfull=1#post3639" target="_blank">lifting the truck again</a> :blam:</blockquote>
