| Bought it as a precaution in case I get stuck in my airboat-Have only used it to hoist a deer in a tree - not a real test - looks great seems well built | |

| So far I am very pleased with the 4 - ton come along. I haven't had any issues so far Which is much better than the one I purchased in a local equipment supply store. That one, from a competitor, looked very similar but both pawls broke off the first time I used it. | |
| Matthew, Mon Nov 03, 2008 06:25:41 AM | |
| I have used various other manufacturers for doing heavy moving, pulling stumps, bending trees, pulling people out of the ditch. This one is by far the best one I have seen in a long time. Heavy duty built. | |
| Travis, Tue Oct 21, 2008 03:16:39 PM | |
| I couldn't have asked for a better come along for my unusual task. It had no problem pulling a 1600 pound 100 year old cast iron printing press onto a trailer. Then it gave me complete control backing it back down the ramp one notch at a time. It turned this tricky task into a 2 person job. "Heavy Duty" is no exaggeration with this product! | |
| Bob, Tue Oct 21, 2008 05:01:13 AM | |
| Have just finished using the come along on several large trees. It worked great. My problem with the cheaper ones has been that after some use, it becomes all but impossible to pull the cable back out. So far, the Allied is easy to use in all ways. | |

| I purchased this tool, to use in my off-road ventures, because I don't have a winch I haven't used it yet, off-road, BUT I used it to pull some tree stumps out of my back yard and it is SIMPLE, EFFECTIVE and functions very well, I have no fear or worries, for it's use as intended I recommend it | |

| Exactly what I needed to pull a downed tree out of the lake in front of my house. | |
| Scott, Sat Sep 06, 2008 05:25:23 AM | |
| Bought this Come Along to help drop several trees that were hanging over a back yard shed. One was an oak tree that was 90 feet tall, and leaning about one foot in the direction of the shed. I was able to reverse the direction of the trees' fall with the help of this Come Along. It's a very sturdy unit. I highly recommend it. | |
| John, Sun Aug 31, 2008 01:07:39 PM | |
| The product looks heavy, it feels heavy, it is heavy and hence it will do heavy work. Great hunk of equip that will do the job! Any type of pulling job! I love this thing! Thanks Allied. |
|
| Mike, Tue Aug 19, 2008 02:50:23 AM | |
| Great product and delivery. Easy to use and pulls a heavy load. I am using it to pull trees and stumps. Recommmended. | |
| Jim, Mon Aug 18, 2008 07:56:04 AM | |
| Very pleased with the product I purchased one from another company at the same time and I'm using the one from Allied because it has nicer features. Received the product quickly. | |
| Mikchael, Thu Aug 14, 2008 08:16:01 AM | |
| This is a heavy duty come along. Arizona Tools delivered faster than expected. I have used on my tractor and find the tool to be easy to use. Definitely would recommend. | |
| Bryan, Tue Jul 29, 2008 11:26:25 AM | |
| I have not used the Come Along yet. It looks like it will work great. | |
| Gene, Mon Jun 09, 2008 07:07:50 PM | |
| We bought this product to open and close railcar doors (which are very heavy, usually misaligned, and on rusted tracks). Up to now we needed to use a forklift to do this job. With this Come-Along I was able to easily do the job by myself. Highly recommended! | |
| Mark, Wed May 28, 2008 06:23:00 AM | |
| Am very pleased with my Come Along!! Not only is it very well made, it is a sturdy tool I will be able to use for a long time...THANK YOU... Also the delivery was super fast...they didn't wait around to get my Come Along in the mail.... Thanks Again...Mark |

| The unit (5); the directions (1), Wed May 21, 2008 01:02:42 PM | |
| The come along is very sturdy, but the directions that come with it are confusing (to say the least): To understand what you read in the directions, first you must understand the Position Lever. One end of the Position Lever is a red handle, and the other end is a bare pointer (the pointer end). > To release the cable, first move the Position Lever so that the pointer end of the Handle is over "Release". > To apply tension, first move the Position Lever so that the pointer end of the Handle is over "Pull". > To release tension one notch at a time, press and hold the red lever on top of the come along, lift the handle, and then swing the handle over until it depresses the spring controlling stop pawl #2. Then, release the red lever and swing the handle back all the way back. Repeat this process for each notch of tension that you want to release. |

| John, Wed May 14, 2008 03:51:19 PM | |
| Very well built, only cons are directions on how to use not completely clear for those that have never used a come along, and one of the rubber tabs fell off after heavy use | |
| Gary, Wed Apr 23, 2008 05:12:15 AM | |
| This is the first comealong I have owned and I bought it on the strength of the user comments. I had trouble with getting the cable to release due to an inability to disengage the handle drive. I called Allied and a gentleman named Juan sent me a new handle quickly, for free. The problem with the original handle was simply that a weld was slightly out of place and happily the new handle drive works perfectly. For my first job I used it to haul a waterlogged 1,500 pound fallen palm tree out of a creek all by myself. This is a great tool and much better built than any of the comealongs I saw at Home Depot or Lowes. Plus, the service from Allied was exceptional. I rate the comealong a "5" and Allied service a "10" on a scale of 1-5. | |

| I purchased this come along to move a travel trailer that got stuck in the backyard. It did the job well and was easy to use. I can't compare it with other come alongs since this is my first one, but I found it to be well built and heavy duty. I was surprised that Home Depot didn't even carry a come along. Pep Boys says they carry one brand, but was sold out. Walmart automotive section didn't even know what a come along was. Sears was no help either. I was pleased with Arizona Tools, but it took longer than expected to come, it was about 10 days. I didn't want to pay overnight shipping because it would have cost more than the tool itself. | |

| VERY PLEASED WITH THE ALLIED DOUBLE GEARED 4-TON COME ALONG, HAD A BIG HEAVY TALL 30' PALM TREE THAT HAD BEEN RELOCATED IN MY YARD STRONG GUST OF WIND MOVED IT OUT OF PLACE BY 4 FEET HAD JUST GOT THE YARD FIXED BACK FROM MOVING THE TREE DID NOT WANT TO BRING BACK THE HEAVY EQUIPMENT THE ALLIED 4-TON MOVED IT BACK IN PLACE,AND WAS EASY TO WORK WITH +++++ | |

| Roger, Wed Nov 07, 2007 08:09:30 AM | |
| Was necessary to keep a tree I was cutting down from falling toward my house. The Come Along worked perfectly with the tree falling in the exact area I wanted. | |
| Frank, Mon Nov 05, 2007 07:35:11 PM | |
| I was hoping to find a replacement for an older Durbin comealong. This is not anywhere close to the quality of the old one. Much to bulky and heavy and I doubt will be as durable. | |
| David, Thu Nov 01, 2007 05:45:42 AM | |
| Great tool as described!! Only wish cable was longer! Great quality!! | |
| , Mon Oct 29, 2007 10:56:23 AM | |
| works good | |
| caesar, Thu Oct 18, 2007 05:08:38 PM | |
| I had a very difficult time unwinding the wire rope because it was wound too tight at more than the capacity of the reel. I almost returned the hoist. I was able to unwind the wire rope only by the pulling it with a garden tractor while hooked to a tree and then operating the handle with the hoist in "release" position.The hoist operated satisfactorily after I was able to release the wire rope. | |
| , Thu Sep 20, 2007 05:30:33 AM | |
| The tool did its job very well, the only downside was that it was very stiff and required extra effort to release cable in each and every application. | |
| A. Wilks, Mon Sep 10, 2007 04:39:09 PM | |
| Gentlemen, Wanted to let you know, that i am extremely pleased with the 4 ton, Allied Heavy Duty Double Geared Come- Along #AZT662. It is a good looking and working piece of machinery! I looked at a bunch of other come-alongs, prior to puchasing this unit, they did not compare in quality!! Also the delivery time was amazing, i ordered it on a Wednesday evening and received the unit on the following Monday afternoon. Three working days!! Again many thanks. | |
| , Sat Sep 08, 2007 04:54:28 PM | |
| I knew what I needed. I ordered exactly whatI needed. I got exactly what I ordered. Fast and Quality merchandise. Thanks to ArizonaTools. |
|
| Alan, Fri Sep 07, 2007 05:54:04 PM | |
| After looking at and reading about many other come-alongs as well as reviews of the same, I decided on the Allied H.D.Double Geared 4 ton machine. Glad I did it is a well designed and well made piece of work. Thanks Arizona Tools, excellent product. |
|
| Steve, Fri Sep 07, 2007 09:08:53 AM | |
| I used the Come Along to pull a hung-up tree out of other trees. And it out performed and out lasted the first 4-Ton Single geared Come Along I tried. It worked great and the tree came down safely. | |
| Billy S., Tue Sep 04, 2007 01:45:15 PM | |
| I love it. I could not afford a power winch and winch bumper for my 07 FJ cruiser. So I got this come along and it is very cool and easy to use. I just bought some recovery straps and I got the best money can buy cause of the money saved buying this come along. Buy it if you 4x4 with out a power winch. It will be best $50.00 you will spend. Last time I got stuck in the back woods it cost $3,500.00 and two weeks to get my rig out. With this Come Along plus some recovery straps and tree saver,shackles= $300.00 and you can get your self free with ez. Billy S. |

| My husband was doing some logging and broke two come alongs in one week. I decided to search the internet for something better than I could find locally. I was totally impressed with the reviews you had and when it came it looked awesome. Strong, Sturdy, and Reasonably Priced! Has worked great for everything we have tried it on. | |
| , Sun Aug 26, 2007 03:31:00 PM | |
| Works great! Holds up just fine and the price can't be beat. | |
| Dave, Fri Aug 03, 2007 04:57:49 PM | |
| Excellent product and great price. It should last a lifetime. Thanks AZ tools. | |
| Mike, Sun Jul 22, 2007 05:52:56 PM | |
| I have a 3000 lbs drag car which I haul on an open car trailer. I normally drive the car onto the trailer but on occasion I have to pull the car onto the trailer manually. My options for pulling the car onto the trailer were limited. I didn’t want to spend the $400.00 for an electric winch for only occasional use. A come-a- long seemed like a good choice but a trip to the hardware store was rendered useless as the light duty (1 ton capacity) come-a-longs were going for around $140.00, still to costly for this budget racer. After a quick web search I came across the ArizonaTools web site (www.arizonatools.com) and what did I find but a heavy duty, quality come-a-long for an unbelievable price, $100.00 less than the light weight tool at the hardware store. I was skeptical but after reading the reviews from other satisfied customers I decided to buy it and see what I was getting. I am pleased to report I got a heavy duty, well built come-a-long that fit my needs exactly and kept my budget open for more speed equipment instead of a costly tool used only occasionally. I have used the Arizona Tools 4 ton come-a-long to haul my drag car onto the trailer and I have to tell you that it works great. Thanks Arizona Tools for the great, affordable product. Sincerely, Mike the Drag Racer |

| The come a long is made very well and we do not have to order replacement parts like we do for the maasdam power pulls. | |
| Parrish, Thu May 03, 2007 11:40:21 AM | |
| so far, excellent product! | |
| rip, Fri Apr 20, 2007 07:41:39 AM | |
| They are made well and they hold up better to the abuse around here better than any come a long we have tried yet. | |

| This is not your father's come along. I was working on a large tools shed that was leaning over three feet in the air on one side. It was lifted by a tree trunk that went down during the severe wind storm that hit the Seattle area. After lowering the shed with a house jack I pulled the tool shed sideways about 2 feet to get it back where it was before the storm. I was quite impressed with its power. The home owner couldn't believe I did it without anybody else helping me. I won't mention that it was less than $12 more than the flimsy models you can buy in the local store. | |
| Alan, Thu Jan 18, 2007 08:31:24 AM | |
| After getting a side job to remove 30 or so trees but keep the "good" ones unscathed, I needed a tool to help insure that I would have no accidents. The 4-Ton Come Along looked like the right tool for the job and it proved itself so in the first day of use. Easy to use and well built. Thanks Arizona Tools. | |
| Fritz, Tue Dec 19, 2006 02:59:23 PM | |
| Your e-mail was very timely, it arrived 1/2 hour after I came in from wrestling a large Balsam Fir which had been partially blown over and ended up hung up in another tree, all that on a steep slope within 10 feet of our garage. After destroying a cheap 2 ton Come Along, I ordered your Allied 4 ton model. It got the job done with flying colors and my garage is still standing. Well worth the extra dollars. | |
| Lou, Fri Dec 08, 2006 09:36:35 PM | |
| This come along is a big daddy. I have to use a come along to pull big equipment. I also use it to steady large trees while cutting. This is a very well built come along. Heavy enough to do the job. Also a great price. | |
| William, Sun Nov 19, 2006 08:35:30 PM | |
| The come along was everything I expected it to be. It is well built and will serve my needs perfectly. I have seen many cheap come alongs and this one is by far well worth the cost. | |
| fred, Thu Nov 16, 2006 09:45:20 AM | |
| Haven't used the come-along yet, but it looks like a good tool - well built, and able to do the job. Price was low for the quality. | |
| , Sat Nov 04, 2006 09:39:56 PM | |
| Excellent product. Tried two other brands before purchasing the Allied 4-ton come along. QUALITY construction and ease of use make this extremely easy to use. Phone sales were more courteous and efficient. | |
| Fred, Tue Aug 29, 2006 10:22:46 AM | |
| Excellent, well constructed tool. It was instrumental in "encouraging" a 120' Southern Yellow Pine tree to fall where I wanted it to fall and not on my house. | |
| Dennis, Sun Apr 30, 2006 11:26:32 AM | |
| I purchased the Allied 4-Ton Come Along for a simple hoisting job of 400lbs. I bought the larger capacity since it was so inexpensive. However, before I used it for its intended purpose, I needed to get an inoperative vehicle onto an auto carrier. The driver arrived with no wench not realizing the vehicle was inoperable. So, we hooked up the Come Along and easily pulled the car up onto the carrier and then into the forward most position. Leverage is a great thing. The Allied 4-ton worked great. |

|

| I'm an ex-logger, heavy equipment operator who has done and still do my fair share of repair and "fix-it" work. This is a heavy duty tool for those who tear up the Japanese Junk. HEY! Pay the extra $20 and get a tool that'll be with ya a while. This sucker is built to last, well worth the money! Nothing cheesy about it! I'd recommend this to anybody serious about pulling! | |
| Kraig, Wed Mar 16, 2005 07:50:08 PM | |
| This come along is far superior to others I have looked at in the same range. It is sturdy. Some said it is too heavy. But considering the strength it is actually light. I'm glad I bought it. | |
