Re: Elecy winch.. When??
Hi all. First time on this forum, and I have a queery about winch speeds, and pulleys etc. I am about to make an electric winch to pull on my Brooker 4.6 CC Aluminium boat onto the trailer.
I got a second hand older Jarret winch about 5 to 1. I have an old 10'' pulley (I found in the shed) which will fit nicely on the winch shaft, and i think I could find an old HQ starter motor down in the shed. Should I go bigger on the bigger pulley? (12''-14'') I imagine I should go as small as possible on the starter motor pulley (2'' or so).
Should I go a geared starter motor like the Hilux deisel or V6 Camry? Trying to avoid too many $$$.
I have trouble working out speeds, but will the 10'' pulley be quicker or slower than the 12'' or 14''?? I am aware if it goes too quick, it will be difficult to control, and put a lot of strain on the starter motor, and winch.
Someone said you can't beat an old landcruiser Starter, and another said I need a 2- 3 speed winch (plus a geared starter) rather than the old basic Jarret winch I picked up. A bit confused, so all help appreciated.
