    I found this set up on Craigslist and went to check it out. Nice fella that was moving to a condo. He said he used it four times to unstick his little Kubota. I also got to pre shop his barn sale. Got two log chains, a come a long, 8lb sledge & a big role around battery charger. Spent about an hour talking with him & $350.00. Did good I think. 20210729_083447.jpg 12k Badlands brand. I may put a hitch mount on it. 20210729_125304.jpg No Idea what I'll use it for, but it's bound to be handy for something. 20210729_083456.jpg

    Oh that's cute. Gives me the idea of adding a gin pole and pulley.
    I'm jealous that you have 2 working legs and can play with it!!
    I still haven't even seen my new winch, bought and payed for and sitting in a barn 2 hours away !!

    So uh where's this barn? I may go get it lol.
    200 amp boost roll around. Nice old Sears brand, looks like new. Way better than the new digital ones. Turn it on & it charges. No chip to kick it out when you're not looking. I've got a nice snap on I'd let go cheap.

    It's in mount horeb wi.
    Thing is though he has a lot of old iron he's willing to part with. Just doesn't want it parted or scrapped. He was offered 4 1/2 times what he sold it to me for but everyone else wanted just the engine/clutch.
    When his brother passed the family just dumped the "treasures" with no regards to What was going to happen to them.
    He's on a hunt for "good homes" now as his family has no love for the stuff.

    She wouldn't let me go. Probably for the better.
    Left me outside for some air.....my version of air was kneeling on a garden tractor and tooling down the road.
    Hers and the doctors version wasn't.
