Post subject: | Prodrive Winch Trim |
Any of you guys still running the old style winch trim? I would like to see some close up pictures of how its done. How the winch is mounted, and how the cable hooks to the motor. I have a winch I could use if it was relatively inexpensive to adapt it to the motor. 500 bucks for the hydro is kinda steep right now. I tried searching and found a few pics, but nothing I could see clearly. |

A pic would be great. I was trying to see how exactly the winch was oriented, and if I was gonna need some type of bracket. Thanks. |

be sure to use the synthetic rope, it last alot longer than the stainless cable. |

DA, on the synthetic rope, what do you use as a stop on the end of the rope? |

Well so much for that. Prodrive doesn't carry the parts for them anymore. I'm sure I could fab up a bracket, but the roller on the backside would be what I'd be worried about. I was thinking I could just tie it off on the back hole, but was worried about it chafing. Any ideas? |

Which bracket are you talking about? |

The one on the right would be the most important. You looking to get rid of that setup? I figured we could make the bracket to hold the winch up, but the roller on the trim arm looked pretty important. |
