Snowblower urban winch

[TowRopeCalvin]

I heard about some people using snowblowers to build winchs I'm wondering if I actually works

Damn if you removed the blade, this is actually a pretty good idea

Please report back if you end up doing this. Sounds like it would work well

2 in 1 would be awesome

If you anchor the snowblower, secure it and remove the blades... I think this idea has potential

 

[Auzy]

Sounds like some redneck engineering shit that would end up working real well. Someone do it.

That things gonna rip, are you just gonna tie it onto the mower deck and have someone turn it on or actually make some sorta contraption?

If you have one or can obtain one for cheap then try it. Another good option is a harbor freight predator motor. You can get a hand throttle cable that lets you stand far enough away from hazard. Just make sure to get a centrifugal torque converter so that you don't have the pin wheel spinning as soon as you start the motor.

I hooked up a bike rim to the bottom of the deck and I tried it but it didn’t work but I’m gonna make it out of an electric engine I have and going so wire it up with a plug so we you plug it in it gives her shit
