intelligent winch

[Clunk]

as Growler said, I'd like to see this thing be given a proper challenge rather than a pulling a crappy landy up a tiny incline!!!!!

Hmmm interesting

Interesting concept, if it wasn't for people thinking outside the confine of the "sqare" nothing would develop. Good on him I reckon.
I'm guessing that the winch is on a removable bracket as mine is, so when its not in use it's removed.
It could probably be mounted higher and not have such a clearance issue.
Like it but it's not for me..... yet.

It looks very much like a hoist used in cranes, eg workshop gantry crane.

Notorious for breaking guides. do not like sideloads at all.

He may have strengthened them.

I just picture it after a 3 years of aussie dust, mud and rain. and like said above, when its turned sideways and getting dragged through some propper mud.

haha fair enough, a friend of mine did just buy a defender, it certainly looks good strapped to the back of my nissan!.

although it certainly doesn't have as much rust as the nissan either!

with a traditional winch its captured in the bar thins one seems to put a lot of trust into the swivel mechanism. Not the best after a bit of wear

Wow this looks interesting!
