Winch... Finally got it!

Finally got my logging winch

Can't believe the amount I can pick up with my loader, even with the rear tires being loaded before! I haven't had to to use 4 wheel drive once since I got it. Before I was constantly in and out of 4 wheel drive. I ended up with a Fransgard winch. Seems to be working out just fine! Very happy about this purchase :thumbsup:

I believe that without photographic evidence.... it never happened :laughing: Actually, I am interested in it... did you get it new or used?

PS. if you need help posting photos, just ask...

Congrats :thumbsup: Nothing wrong with Fransgard
After a little experience with it you will like it even better. Get yourself a snatch block or two if you don't already have them. They will really help you.

Its funny you ask about the photo.... My wife went to upload it when we originally posted and it wasn't letting her upload

We will have to try again! Anyways, I did get it new. Definitely a good purchase! Hopefully we can get some pics up soon!

Most likely the photos are too large, either file size or the physical size. Not sure if you have a graphics program to resize or not.... but most windows based computers have a program called "Paint". Go to "Start", "Programs", "Accessories", "Paint" should be under there...

Open the image there and look for "Image", "Stretch/Skew", Try reducing by 75% in both directions, then most important, "File", "Save As..." use a DIFFERENT name Image123_SMALL.JPG Also, the default File Type in Paint is BMP. You'll want to change that to JPG. That's just below where you type the New name in.

Its the 3004 model... perfect for our 35hp tractor. With tax it was about $3200... Always hate to spend it, but definitely worth every penny
