Nice vids - definitely tech.

You still run that rig or just use it for show-'n-tell now ?

:D
 
Hey---Now you're famous. Awesome.

Well done.


:cheers:
 
Would have been better if you let the D-ring catch the door skin, would have kept it upbeat and comical.
Kidding aside, great vids.
Do the same procedures apply for say a truck WITH fenders?
 
oh i didnt know you were gonna start a thread here...

here are the codes.


 
Nice vid dude .. thanks for posting .. did you check your cylinders before fire it up

bumped it over once or twice before I really tried to start in

:flipoff2:nice gas tank

tempory 3 years ago :lol:... still got all the stuff to do pane :hillbilly:

last time I used just the wire cable and dented the door:meh:so I pulled from the frame... so went easy this time last time I had fender I find the pics :beer:

Have any openings where you work? I want a job like that.

sorry all full :cheers: belive it or not I'm the only wheeler in the store :eek:

Good video! Random fact- Doubling your line length doesn't double the 'output' of the winch, it just doubles the area over which the winch does the same amount of work.

Maybe this video will be good to get some kids interested in simple machines in the classroom? :hhmm:
 
i really wish you would skin those fenders Joel...

sweet, love teaching with four wheelers.

Well I think I said doubles the rated out put of the winch .. Not the winches out put ... Clear as mud right;)


I would love to do a kids class I'll look into it great idea

There are two factors actually,
It doubles the effective output of the winch by adding a pulley (simple physics)

And, because you have fewer wraps on the winch drum itself, you are increasing the pull strength. Remember, a warn 9.5 TI has a 9500 lb pull strength at the bottom wrap of rope, but only has a 6940 lb pull strength on wrap #5. Again, simple physics, but something people do not think that much about.
 
You didn't mention to make sure the truck is still in gear or park before righting the truck. Sucks when the truck takes off down the hill once it is back on all 4s..

I did the video was 45 min long when I sent it In To be edited. I guess our camera work sucked and alot of the stuff I did didn't make it to the end ... I think I may re-redo it again my self and hit all the points again
 
whay to do for those that don't have complete roll cage .. ? ;)

If you look at the pic I showed doin it off the top of the frame it works but the truck slid some first ... With out a cage that would better cause the top would smash flat after roll over damage if it wasn't allready. On your cage I would still go he the b piller and wrap around the joint it's still stronger... I hope you never find out...again once is enough right

Aye, that may be a little much for these youngsters, but thinks for winching that thought up!
