I want to use this to pull heavy loaded pallets (2000 -4000 lbs) From the inside of my semi dry van to the edge with a fork lift. Then the fork lift can take the pallets from there. About 75 ft should work. I'll put a couple of hooks On it. Will it be able to pull that weight horizontally? Pull roughly 50 feet the most. I'm getting tired of having to pallet jack them. Ain't getting any younger.

If you're splitting the load between two pieces of line (you mentioned 2 hooks), and if the pallet slides somewhat easily on the deck, then you should be okay. Unfortunately we can't calculate how much friction there will be between your pallet and the deck, which does matter and will affect the total amount of force being applied to the cable.
