Thanks for pics,that could well be my next project. not sure yet, have to have shoulder,& neck surgery, might not be cranking anything.

I was thinking, since you have to have tail lights on your trailer, maybe some method can be rigged so that you turn your tail lights on, then you have a switch that steals the power from the lights and runs a motor to run the winch up and down. It would be simple electrically, but finding a light weight power winch could be difficult. Any one out there know of such a thing?

Thats pretty smart thinking, But, I'm really leaning towards 120.00 spring loaded example, really simple.. Thanks though,,Quig

I would think you could use the gas springs. They are cheap and available in most any length and force while small and simple to hook up.

      Quiet utv
      By Jay5
      I’m looking for a quiet side by side for my wife and I. We will do some trail riding but nothing too extreme. We are more geared toward leisure riding since we are in our sixties. We go to Wyoming in the summer and have been looking at the Honda Pioneer 1000, can am defender.

      UTV Wheelchair
      By rtate1050
      I know that this may be a bit outside the forum , but has anyone had any experience with all terrain wheelchairs ? I live on 5 sandy acres in Florida and am currently wheelchair bound. I have a power wheelchair but it doesn't work very well on my property . I.m looking at one that has rubber treads like a tank . It's pretty expensive so I was wondering if anyone had any experience or knows anything about them before I pulled the trigger.
      I do have aa side-by-side but can't get in and out.
      Thanks , Rich

      By Randyh79
      Does the transmission share the crank case oil with the engine or does it have its own oil seperate from the engine?
