Thanks ATCOEQUIP,that was my idea.I wanted a small version of a holmes 750 on the front of the skidloader for rigging in tight quarters & off road winchouts.There was quite abit of welding involved in the winch project.Luckily I had almost everything in stock to build it.The only steel I bought was the angle iron for the lattice webbing on the booms.If you look close at picture #3 on post #8 you will see that I had to mount the garwood winch upside down due to lack of room on the john deere backhoe frame.So the worm gear is on top.I installed seals on the mainshaft in the winch housing at the bull gear as now the oil level is above the mainshaft .Hear is a pic of the oil fill & breather cap.It's really the drain plug but now that the winch is upside down It's the fill tube .I fill the winch with 90 wt oil to about 3 inches from the top that way the worm gear & ball berings are always running in oil.You would sure enjoy running it ATCOEQUIP.I tell what,pound for pound it will pull right along with my other winch riggs & wreckers.It comes in handy at times.In the picture you can also see the rigging box.Cranes ,winch riggs,& wreckers need a rigging box to store hooks,pins,cable clamps,& so on.
