Make your own.

Must get stuck a lot [emoji41][emoji1787]

Think my winches have recovered me less than 5 times in 30 years.

Recovered lots of others though [emoji106]

I have a '99 spares donor I'm going to use.
It's just a matter of getting the time, and being bothered to get into it too.

If I get mine done this coming weekend, I'll report on how it went.

Just a bit of a joke


Sometimes these Chinese made things are mis labeled

Sometimes you can hook up to 12 or 24

Sometimes you get sent the wrong item

Sometimes people make mistakes and think there getting a bargain, without reading the blurb
Only to realise once the item has arrived that it wasn’t what they wanted (guilty)
But it was a bargain at the time🤨

Anyways, hopefully the problem is sorted before it’s installed

We’ve all been there [emoji12]

I'm referring to early model Kenworth, a name synonymous with quality. The switches were so unreliable, many owners retrofitted 12V starters.

Half the Amps and more pulling power

Gearing at 80:1 should mean it’s fast, I’ll hazard a guess and say it’s going to stall easy.

1000a min current battery specified.

Should be fun!

Only half the amps on the motor, the supply will still be having to provide 2x + losses

Yeah the places I do most D2 owners would crap themselves and turn around

Plus the 12v one is 6-12months lead time
