Who builds air free spool winch?

Post by fatgqcq »

Hi guys and gals

Where would I be able to find an air free spool winch that is readily available to the market that is quick enough for comp work? It has to be a single motor with no mods and able to be bought off the shelf.

Why you ask? To fit within the guidelines of the wtc modified rules.

Cheers.

You can get air free spool drums etc for warn high mounts. Gigglepin and MB immediately come to mind.
Just use the standard warn top end, with either. 6hp warn motor ( I have one for sale at present, pm me if interested) or Bow 6.8 motor.

Have a mate who brings in MB and GP stuff include brakeshafts, freespool drums, and also Albright solenoids, let me kmow and I can give you his details.

Me? No, I'm not a winch boy. I might do one one day but I have my eyes set on a different series.

No I put my hand up so at least everyone else gets to race.
