Nice lift there Jeremy, good job on the upgrade, seems to work nicely. 👍

The boat winch looks to make it more heavy duty as well nice upgrade to the lift and thanks for sharing the useful info.

Same exact issue with a Titan Attachments 2 Ton, 1 side slipped the gear. Great fix, the warranty dept is still saying they are backordered for the factory part. This is much better, thanks

Comes in handy that is for sure especially on those zero turns

Nice repair, i but a worm gear crank on my outside gantry so it has automatic braking and easy reverse but those boat wenches are super handy in many applications

Great idea and should improve the function of the gantry. Thanks for the video.

Happening to me right now what did you do to fix it. It's brand new out of box and it's either getting jammed or acting like it's skipping

@@joshuahawksworth169 It's hard for me to put in words but I will try. The inter gear that slides up and down agents the front of the gear box. has sharp edged and digs in to guides on the side. I had to file notches out of the short side guides. On one side th guide was to short and I drilled taped and put a short bolt in, which extended the guide.It's a good design but they cut to many corners. When you turn the crank one way the plate tips and slides up and down one side of the gear box. when you turn it the other way it tips and slides up and \down the other side where it slides there was a notch I had to file out. Good luck. sorry I can't explain better. I am not a word smith.

Yes, please replace the other side, those wire rope cable clips are on backwards at the anchor point. "Never saddle a dead horse"

What is the make model of the new winch?

@josiewalberg2263 2 жыл бұрын

You should have set the crane to lift both sides with the same side / cable .

Does it pull up both sides evenly, with just one winch? Great fix.

@THEMOWERMEDIC1 2 жыл бұрын

One side at a time. But I’m going to concoct a series of pullies and make it do both sides

I definitely will have to do it and I would do the other side so it doesn't happen again

@@Cinder2008 They got some good stuff, but I have other things that are just like you said. 20 years ago their drill bits were top notch, now if you look at them wrong they break. The last straw on this round of pissed off was a three jaw puller, the friggin arm had "FORGED" stamped on it, well when they break and you can see the cast under the chrome....first use of course. But I've had other things too, a belt sander that lasted for over 10 rough years, that I actually miss, the new on just don't feel the same.
