We FABRICATED The World's STRONGEST Removable Winch Setup

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 1 พ.ย. 2020
- I've probably pushed 50 cars onto this trailer and every single time I've said I was going to get a winch. That day has finally come and I have an outrageous 17,000Lb winch from Anvil Offroad to install on the trailer. I want it to be quickly removable so it doesn't live outside, but that's easier said than done. It took an entire day to get this massive setup built and it's still not bolted onto the trailer.

Good to see your Dad again. You can tell that this man's got tons of experience in thinking ahead and where retention vrs. force on fabrications. Always enjoy seeing him and got a nice peak at JR's Grand-dad's old wheat/corn hauling red truck in the background from a video awhile back.
It's been said before, but I could listen to his dad talk shop for hours. That man's voice is like a mix of Johnny Cash and Bob Ross.
Yay!!!!! guest appearances by Daddy Ross and the elusive Jared. The family that accomplishes things together, stays together. God bless flyover country. Daddy Ross needs his own channel. "Old School Common Sense with Ross.
❤️❤️❤️
You have officially outgrown that two car garage. Time to get a larger shop JR!
Josh, Gabe, and JR could definitely benefit from it. Add some space to rent to Hoovie.
If I remember, you need to load your winch with about 1k lbs or more in order to spool it correctly. Might think about respooling that guy
Please be more careful with your winching. You need to spool new cable onto the drum under load in order to prevent the upper layers from embedding themselves into the lower when under full load. Also, I was cringing the whole time you had your hand right next to the winch fairlead while spooling it in. That drum doesn’t just instantly stop, but, no matter what, all it would have took to mangle your hand is a small grab/slip and pull it into the fairlead. PLEASE be safer than that.
JR read THIS ^^^^
I was also cringing watching for his hand to get pulled into the fairlead.
I got to say you are blessed to have such great friends and family that can help you with your projects.
Like a couple other guys recommend, trailer box on the tongue with a couple batteries. Then your trailer plug should have switched 12v power to one of the pins. Wire that to charge the trailer batteries. If you are really trick get a solar trickle charger so it's always ready to rock.
Dang that plasma cutting table is awesome. Great to have that shop available!
"runs it by dad..." Well done, JR. Well done.
Looks like his dad's shop is the hook-up of the century. Very heavy tools!
I think we've all had one of those moments were you stop and think "I almost died". Mine was on my motorcycle when a suddenly overtaking car missed me by only centimetres. Then when you realize it could have been all over right then and there, you really appreciate the fact you are (still) alive.
You and your Dad working together: Priceless!
You are so blessed to have a machine shop on standby. But even more blessed to have a knowledgeable great dad like that. I wish mine were still here.
My favorite part about all this is the fact that so many people are helping to get this simple winch together it's nice to see everyone help with JR's goal.
Did I miss an update on the John Deere 420C? Would love to see that.
Cuddos to your dad and brother for the awesome help! That metal muncher didn't even sound like it was struggling
Your dad is cool as hell JR. Nice work on the winch mount better overbuilt than under-built any day of the week.
Always a great video when your Dad shows up!
Your dad sounds alot like Johnny Cash on my phone
I was just gonna say he needs to sing,"Ring of fire"
John deserves more love, my favorite TH-camr
If I watch a full winch video, I need to see the winch actually winch a car up on to the trailer lol....feel shorted here.
Big shout out to your dad and his crew for helping you do it right!
The knees; the knees - you’re supposed to lift with your knees, John Ross ;)
Yep I could just see him blowing out his back and going AWOL for months like Westen did!
After seeing the bracket, Dad's brain is envisioning the entire install within seconds.
I was coming to comment that I wish JR's dad had a channel. I love old, experienced, practical engineers. I am trying to become one, but I'm only 25 years into my career. I'm officially the President of Jr's Dad fan club.
Love your dad, I really miss mine.
Time to start a second channel on the crazy stuff your pop's company can do and does here in America.
I'm jealous that you have such an amazing father. I like every episode that hes in. My dad taught me absolutely zero about anything.
I'd recommend a Trailer Box with Two Batteries ran in Parallel!
And a solar trickle charger!
TK Skagen .. That's what he should have made. A box with enough room for batteries and hold down straps..
YOUR DAD IS THA MANNN.. SOO MUCH KNOWLEDGE
Always love watching JRs dad go. He knows his stuff.
Can't wait to see you use the rig! Any video with Dad is a win! Nice.
Nothing like having access to a fully equipped fab shop and a pro welder. Nice work!
Now JRs working in my territory. Real Actual Metal Fabrication, not the lil soda cans yall car guys work on
Kept thinking Hank Hill "I sell winches and winch accessories".
The reappearance of the mad dad skills........AWESOME!!
Jr. Pick up a can of VHT satin black not gloss black brake caliper paint . It's the closest thing to black powder coating I have found in a spray can.
The Metal Muncher (and was that a plasma cutter table?) are pure sorcery. Loved seeing the details that went into this setup.
Nice to see pros using pro tools doing work. And Jared getting some camera time. That thing is a beast! After it's all said and done it's gotta be worth at least $500 for a trailer winch mount. Wholesale. Found at O'Rielly's for $1200 but guaranteed not to break, ever.
Looking forward to WatchJRTow.
Everyone needs access to a shop like that.
I love when dad makes debuts.
You can only debut once -- I think the word you want is cameo, as in makes a cameo appearance...
Next morning squad, because I actually sleep.
Welcome back Dad!! Voice of experience!!
so what is the tongue weight rating on that hitch mount 1000 lbs. according to the northern tool website.
even with figuring in 3 times that number for a failure point i would have one other major concern with 350 lbs. rating on the receiver hitch part.
then multiply the height from the mount to load the fulcrum point.
this needs some extra safety to protect you if it launches all of the winch towards the load being pulled.
this may never fail but just to be safe add two chains that hook from the trailers safety chains to hitch/winch mount chain points.
just a suggestion not trying to be a keyboard engineer.
Watch JR's Dad. That gentleman is a master of many things.
Snatch block not a block and tackle.
Make sure you use a winch dampener when ever using a winch, place as close to the hook or d shackle that’s attached to the car that your pulling it will take majority of the force out of the rope and gear attached to it.
I have seen those dampers, always a good idea for sure 💯
@@WatchJRGo and make sure you wind that winch rope under load or it will tangle and bind the rope on the first heavy pull.
You don’t need that smaller bottom tie bar behind the fair lead there only for shipping.
Glad to see you ran with my idea of a Removable Winch......
Your dad's story and shop are really amazing. I checked his website out after he wore one of his work shirts in a video a while back. I would like to see a video with him telling the story of how he got to where he is today.
Is there anything you cant do JR, I seriously think you are the coolest guy on this earth. JR 2024
Put a front hitch receiver on too. Handy moving trailers and winching yourself out obviously.
Thank you for saving my late night boredom lol can't wait for another 350 update
This was an interesting project dude - looks really good!
Nice job JR but a little to much work.I would have mounted the reciever where you did except I would have added a plate to bolt to the triangular shaped aluminum tread plate on top of the frame rails. That would stop the mount from trying to pivot on the front of the deck and would not have needed all the reinforcements underneath. Still need some outside like he's doing but not nearly as much.
Just my two cents worth.
Really like your work and your work ethic.
You need to hang out here in East Tennessee for a while with a good handling automobile. We've got a lot of awesome roads around here.
Perfect time to drop a video to us Australians. Good job, JR!
i think like a 5000lb winch would have been plenty for pulling a car up a trailer... i guess now you don't need the car to have any wheels!
Put a Anderson plug on it so you can run it from the truck.
Put a 12volt plug outlet into your number,then you have truck bat voltage all the time.Used to put them on tractors to operate lift gates back in the day
Seeing how the winch sucks so much power you might want to mount a battery box with a big honking semi truck battery in there.
that line will take off your head too. watch some videos of Navy synthetic line accidents, put a flag on it and stand clear.
I have seen 3 of these break. They might knock a cheeto over. No danger.
Always great to see Mr. Ross! 👍🏻😀
Wire it up so that it charges off the truck while you're driving!
Can't wait to see it in action.
What ever become of the tractor? Thats what brought me to this channel and I'm not sure if I just missed the episodes or what.. Either way I'm happy to be here. Keep up the good work
I'm not sure JR should have anything to do with winches after seeing that video of him literally almost losing his head to a snapped cable. By the way if that synthetic lead snaps it will also take your hand or leg off.
I seen 3 break. No danger to anything but your pride.
Synthetic rope is amazing. I want to put it on my boat winch but I worry about age/UV rays, weather exposure.
Good to see two fenders in the trailer
Must be nice - first you stop your dad from his work - then you get to pick out free metal- then you get one guy to pick the metal up then get a fabricator to weld and cut everything! Man - your dad IS smart though!! I can see where you get some of your knowledge from.
Lol that fabricator is his brother, and I did half of that off the clock. Also, it’s dads trailer so he definitely has a say in what and how stuff gets put on.
Love your dads engineering brain
It took one suburban to make JR a believer.
You should do what Matt from Demo ranch did and figure out a solar battery set up for that behemoth.
Sometimes i think, is JR a bat or a vampire that only Comes out at night?
I did very similar to both my trailers. Best decision. I can use my winch on either trailer. The winch is 10 years old and still looks new from being indoors. I had to mount my solenoids and fuse block in a small tool box that I carry with the winch and it also holds all the gear. Winching cars is a game changer
Why not secure it on the chassis? On the a frame?
Why do I feel like this is WatchJRGo's version of a Goonzquad video... Need a "Siiiiiiick" counter. :)
The synthetic rope is the way to go but you have to look after it , if you don’t it won’t last.
So your moving into military vehicle removal, eg, stuck tanks ect ??
Your close to heavy duty, made my wench mount 30 years ago with 5/8” plate, and 10” H beam from bridge scrap build, but yours is a good build much better then a lot on here
Instead of a battery box, you could run an Anderson Plug set up to your truck. But then you’d have to use the same truck to tow with. Ah shit, this is gonna backfire on me.
It would work, just make an extra pigtail with 2 battery terminals on it, then you could plug the winch into that if you use a different truck.

Power draw may be an issue for the wiring.
Love Northern Tools man!!
They stock a few things no one else in town has 💯
I don't know what that winch draws for power, but if the truck runs dual batteries, it would be plenty to run power from the front truck batteries to the hitch and install a power pole quick disconnect. Just upgrade the grounds at the front batteries to the chassis and run a 1/0 power wire back (Maybe upgrade alternator charge lead too?). Ground to the frame back there and mount the quick disconnect near the hitch.
Love it!
I have the same winch. Haven't even got it installed yet. Doesn't fit in the space of an average 13k or smaller winch. Can't wait to see the power of the 17.5k. Mounting it in the fifth wheel position of my truck.
What does your family do? Your dad seems incredibly smart and handy.
A lot lol. We do a majority of our work in aerospace and petroleum but we’re pretty much all over the place doing all kinds of stuff. The shop is an ASME pressure vessel fab shop.
Like a kid in a candy store!
Glasses? We don't need no stinking glasses!
One of the few automotive TH-camrs that use safety equipment like a face shield.
Just wow
I love fabrication
Let’s go buy something
Damn, that machine punch a hole in that 1/2 steel plate in 1 second.....like a hot knife through butter.....sweet!
I run power to my 10k trailer winch from my truck. #2 cable from the battery through an 80Amp solenoid with a switch to turn it on. Then you can also have jumper cables to plug into the back of the truck if you need them. It works great. Then you never forget the jump box at home or run it out of power.
On my truck I ran two cables back from the battery, have a quick disconnect at the bumper and enough cable to reach the winch. As long as the truck is running have plenty of power for the winch. Also plan on making a front mount for it and run cables there as well. Doubles as a jumper point - once I make up a set of jumper cables with the quick connect on them. Plus most pulls you will not run it as long as you did to spool the line on.
Nice shop
why not use the cable that came with the winch? All the parts are rated for the unit and will hold up. Your bad experience might have been due to a mix of unrated parts. You didn't show it all installed on the trailer. I was waiting to see how it looked.
You seriously need to invest in a tripod or something for the camera. Of course, I don't think they sell those at O'Reilly's ;)
Nicely done👍🏻Wait till you see ours💯
Nice mate
The closest Northern Tool from me is in Indiana. So I'll just have to do with whatever I can get at Harbor Freight or Eastwood. Though I have ordered from Northern Tool on the interweb and they have very fast turnaround. Just wish there was a closer Northern Tool to the Cleveland area...
It’s like an early Xmas in the garage
Next video: I built a zip line in the backyard.
Well that needs to happen 💯
Zip line over to your buddies garage. I bet his wife would love it!
There’s 3 ways to open any box. The wrong way, the right & the John Ross way!🤣 I’d pick the JR way everytime!😘
Hey, when do we see that crawler again?
