when I first got my 'O' it was slipping horrible going uphill with just me. It wouldn't even pull out in 2nd. I had over 1.5" of slack. After reading the adjustment in the manual and using a 3' piece of angle iron to help give me the tension, it works great now. You can adjust the tension by yourself, but it's best for a 2 person job. One to push with the rod and the other to tighten the bolts back.
