What is the normal size rope used in harnessed truck and hand over hand pulls? And a good place to get it?

1 1/2"

Go here- http://upstaterope.com/unmanila

Email or call him and ask him what kind of deal he can get you on 120' shipped. He's a good guy and will take care of you. Unmanila is WAY better than regular manila.

Jerry,

Could you post the price that he gives you once you get it? I am interested too, but I don't want to bombard this guy with e-mails. Thanks!

There are a few types of unmanila out there. The unmanila that I picked up from the guy I mentioned is actually textured like real manila and feels real nice in hand. Most places sell unmanila that's just colored polypro rope; super slick and plastic feeling. Not good for pulling. Regular manila isn't by any means bad, but for the same price or cheaper, I just think the unmanila is really nice.
