Folks,
I have been considering a small winch to put on the front of my BX2200. Specifically I want to use it to help pull logs out of the woods. Currently I use a large chain to drag out firewood or help pull down clumps of small birches(they grow like weeds around here). Would a small winch be capable of this?
I am considering the Warn Works 1700. It is rated at 1500 lbs and comes with 35 feet of cable. It is small like an ATV winch but is designed to pull small loads as opposed to primarily vehicle recovery.
Does any one have any experience with this type of set up? I figure the bigger winches would be overkill and this small one would suit my needs.
Thanks,
Phil
