  • I've probably pushed 50 cars onto this trailer and every single time I've said I was going to get a winch. That day has finally come and I have an outrageous 17,000Lb winch from Anvil Offroad to install on the trailer. I want it to be quickly removable so it doesn't live outside, but that's easier said than done. It took an entire day to get this massive setup built and it's still not bolted onto the trailer.

    Please be more careful with your winching. You need to spool new cable onto the drum under load in order to prevent the upper layers from embedding themselves into the lower when under full load. Also, I was cringing the whole time you had your hand right next to the winch fairlead while spooling it in. That drum doesn’t just instantly stop, but, no matter what, all it would have took to mangle your hand is a small grab/slip and pull it into the fairlead. PLEASE be safer than that.

    Like a couple other guys recommend, trailer box on the tongue with a couple batteries. Then your trailer plug should have switched 12v power to one of the pins. Wire that to charge the trailer batteries. If you are really trick get a solar trickle charger so it's always ready to rock.

  • @syclone73
    @syclone73 3 года назад +20

    so what is the tongue weight rating on that hitch mount 1000 lbs. according to the northern tool website.
    even with figuring in 3 times that number for a failure point i would have one other major concern with 350 lbs. rating on the receiver hitch part.
    then multiply the height from the mount to load the fulcrum point.
    this needs some extra safety to protect you if it launches all of the winch towards the load being pulled.
    this may never fail but just to be safe add two chains that hook from the trailers safety chains to hitch/winch mount chain points.
    just a suggestion not trying to be a keyboard engineer.

    Make sure you use a winch dampener when ever using a winch, place as close to the hook or d shackle that’s attached to the car that your pulling it will take majority of the force out of the rope and gear attached to it.

    Nice job JR but a little to much work.I would have mounted the reciever where you did except I would have added a plate to bolt to the triangular shaped aluminum tread plate on top of the frame rails. That would stop the mount from trying to pivot on the front of the deck and would not have needed all the reinforcements underneath. Still need some outside like he's doing but not nearly as much.
    Just my two cents worth.
    Really like your work and your work ethic.
