The old winch.
|
This is the bearing that is bad. It has about 1/8" play in it. |
The new 12v winch. It is a 2000lb power in/out ATV winch. |
 |
 |
 |
We cut the old winch off
the base. Then cut the back of it off and welded it to the base. The
holes in the back of the old winch matched the holes in the ATV
winch.
|
Here it is mounted and
hooked up. Ready for the test. The ATV winch came with 25' of cable.
The cable was painted red to show where to stop when pulling it out. I
added the lenght of my old cable from the red area. |
The mounting of the battery and box. This also let me hook my converter up so I have battery power to my lights now.
|
 |
 |
 |
This is where the manual crank use to go. I am adding a storage box here.
|
I replaced all the
metal around the old crank hole. I could not find a small storage box
made for campers, so I made one out of a rubber made container. |
A look at the battery box and wires ran to it.

A top view.
|
In the top right corner
is the 40 amp circuit breaker that came with the winch. The fuse holder
on the yellow wire is a 30 amp fuse for the power wire to the
converter. Both are connected to a quick disconnect. |
