Bushing, axle, chain and sprockets all came from a store we have in Colorado called Tractor Supply Co. The motor is a modified harbor freight wench. There’s other vids out there on how to do the mods.
what number of teeth on the drive sprocket and wheel sprocket, can you vary the speed? BTW Nice vid too long on the welding but at least no musak, I enjoyed
On your next video, it maybe better to put a screen in front of the camera while welding as people will intend to forward the due eyes hurt while watching video. I am sure you would like people to watch whole video without skipping the video 😊😊
I don’t know the amp draw. It’s a harbor freight winch. I would think the website would tell. I had one with an extension cord. Kind of a pain…that’s why I did the battery.
Sry I wasn’t notified of this comment…. I got all the parts at a local hardware store. “Tractor supply company “. Ace hardware carries a lot of the same type stuff.
I used the smallest wench the local hardware store sells. It says 1500 lbs. I used the smallest gear on the wench side and the largest size I could on the wheel side. It’s so powerful. I don’t know the max. But it will turn a 2000 lb tandem axle trailer in place. I haven’t tried yet. But I think it would turn it with my car in the trailer. Hope that helps.
Very nice work!

Do you know how much current the winch motor draws? I want to build one but use a DC power supply and a long drop cord.

It looked like you had a set screw to attach the wheel to the axle. was that a modification of and existing wheel or did you purchase them like that?
sry, didn't even show that...i welded in a bung, just like i had to weld in the bung on the sprocket that fits the axle

Thanks thats what I thought, but I wasn't sure if you found a wheel that already had a set screw. :) thanks again, BTW great job.

It turns my tandem axle trailer fine. I’ve used it many times.
