Todays Big Bang

The  Hydraulic System is complete; Power teering, Hydroboost and LU-4 Winch.  The Superwinch Husky 10 Controller will also control the Hydraulic LU-4 Braden Winch.  Both winches can be operated locally at the winch or from inside the cab.  Milemarker lists the line speed of their 9K Hydraulic Winch as 6.16 FPM, first layer.  The Braden Hydraulic LU-4 is  has a line speed of 7.250 FPM, first layer.  The Winch ran with no cable/load for 30 minutes and the Hoses just got warm, much less than 100 degrees.

Hydraulic Power is not cheap, in  fact it cost considerable more than staying shaft drive.  But it eliminates PTO's, Drive Shafts, Clearance issues.  And the winch is totally independent, I can throw the hook on you at 60 MPH and winch you in.

Now to get ready for a nice BBQ, Parade, Fireworks and ..........................LOL
