Stop it you're getting me all hot and bothered at the mere thought of it:laugh1:

There is a 6000 on ebay ifs a case of wanting extra pull rather than needing it.

[cosworth]

overkill is always better if you ask me ha

[Brushcutter]

Ah yes so it is. Hence my 9.5tonne winch on order for a 95hp tractor.

I found anything bigger than the 4000 just pulled the County backwards. Also bear in mind anything up to the 1184 was only safe to tug 4.5 tonnes of traction.

 

We did have an 8000H on a 974 but the electro hydraulics played up and were converted to hydraulic only.

 

For static pulls the Farmi 8 tonne was better as it acted as its own ground anchor.

 

Be aware also if you add front weight and it still rears up you can crush the bell housing, this is one of the reasons the highland bear had the branch deflectors in tension.

I've just bought a county with a igland 8002 remote control winch, if I was to take it off and sell it what do they fetch I've tried watching ebay but haven't seen any I wouldn't mind putting a 3pl back on tractor cheers all
