One of my recent projects.
To mount the winch on a plate and tube so it can be inserted into any 2" receiver...
Whether it is on a vehicle, tractor or a trailer.

Great job!!! I'd like to do that myself. :{_}: Oh wait, I don't have a winch..... :oops: Bummer

Great idea. By adding a receiver at the front of your trailer, you can load tractors that are in my price range. :lol:

Nice!
I would love to see a video of that puppy pulling a cub onto your trailer.

Neat idea with unlimited possibilities. Ok, I see what look to be electrical connections, but I also see what could be a hand crank. Is that a manual winch or an electric winch with manual back up :? :?:
