Hydraulic winch

I was wondering about the weight but with new suspension I was hoping that would take it. So a leccy winch looks alot easier to do etc etc. I have an old small battery off my rover I could use and do a split charge system in it to charge both batteries. I have no idea how to install a leccy winch though etc etc.
will post a cheque to you ASAP.

why hydraulic ?
your getting way to complexed and heavy now for occasional use and for pay and break days
get a nice little leccy number its alot simpler and lighter
as for wireing up theres pleanty of us on here who can help, or drop me a pm and ill be more than willing to help
as for batteries, dont bother with coplexed split chargers that fail :roll:
fit a 100a alternator then get 2 of the same batteries and like them together
fitting a hydraulic is complexed and all the people are giving you thoughts in the head now about how to do it :wink:
fitting to pas pump, dont bother, new pump everytime you use it
fitting a zf pump where a/c goes gives reasonable results
but to get the optimum out of the winch a dedicated pump right of the arse end of the transfere box is the best way,but its so expensive, by time you finished getting it all set up and done, you'll be away with a leccy winch rigged with plasma still with money in your pocket
but hey thats my opinion :roll:
