Thoughts on winch? Yes or no?

Looks good. Never came across their name before.
The 10' is sweet. Most are only 6 and 7.

Just ordered it. I carry a regular come along in my trailer, but even that takes up a bunch of room. I like that this is in a case, although I'm not sure I can find a place for it on my Attak.

 

[Sevey]

I don't store mine in its case cause it was too bulky.
I think your attak has a storage area in the rear seat? That will work.
Also, there is a clutch cover storage bag that fastens to the top of it. I have that on the nytro and can fit a ton of tools and winch in it.

Great idea on the clutch bag, thanks!

that one is only 1000 lbs. capacity the one posted before it was 2000lbs. or 1 ton capacity. a stuck sled could need more force then 1000# food for thought.

 

[steveg_nh]

I'll have to look again, but I think it was 1,000 as a hoist, 2,000 pounds for pulling/lateral.

 

[thor452]

ahh I didn't look that close either. please post what you find I plan to get one too.

 

[steveg_nh]

You might be right in the capacity. I know I saw 2000 somewhere but I don't now. Shoot. I guess I'll see. I agree 1000 isn't enough.

This is what I carry with me . I rolled my Viper last year when I was riding by myself. With the skis put up. Use come along with straps and a tree to flip it back over. http://www.deuer.com/index.php/pack-mule

That's the same one I mentioned above. I have one on it's way to me. But wasn't sure if 1000 pound capacity was enough for pulling a 580 pound sled out of a real mess.

Thats the one i have used it since 03 and has pulled out a ton of rx-1 tons!

 

[steveg_nh]

Cool thanks. Should be here this week. Where do you guys pack shovels on these sleds? Or do you carry in a backpack?

 

[Sevey]

Those lifting capacities should be lots. You will likely never be dead lifting the entire weight, just nudging it along.

Back to the clutch cover storage, I rigged up some 1" nylon straps to support it in the middle of the case that weaved into the frame. You can pack a lot of tools in them and the weight started to concern me, as the thin clutch cover was never meant to bear a load like that.

Food for thought
