modified winch

[steve phillips]

hey all
here the winch i reworked to lift saw head .
i used a 17mm socket cut it down on the 12pt side to were the gear was 50% sticking out . then i turned the other end of socket to were it would fit through the stock bushing . i left it loose on the bushing fitting for oiling , and a turned surface on the socket . this way oiling should last longer (lol i hope ) .
  by doing it this way i just take it apart put the orginal stuff back on for warranty . i bought the hf warranty
