Re: (ET) Rear Lift

["Mike Wallace" <metman glasgow-ky com>]

John,

It sounds like you are describing the same type of winch that the Johnny
Products folks use on there front end loaders, (similar to this one on 
eBay,
item #3823741744).  Has anybody tried to switch the 12 vdc motor with one 
of
the small frame deck motors so it would run off 36 volts?

(Bob K.) With this kind of winch, you'd have forward and reverse.

I don't really need a strong winch like that right now, but it would almost
be worth the $40 to see if it would work.  Maybe the next time one of the
traveling tool shows comes to town, I may buy one.  I just hate to pay
shipping to somebody on eBay for items like that.
