Hybrid_From_Hell Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 Ah well you see Madam I'm in competition to make a winch and mounting heavier than some bloke called Hybrid_From_Hell..... Nige Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_a Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 "ahh go on, be my winch biatch, I already have the comedy winch, I need a clown to go with it" or "you don't even need to connect it, it weighs so much that it distorts the gravity around it moving the world forward around you" or " would you move that winch, I'm trying to get a suntan over here and it's causing an eclipse" now I know why that winch is not advertised on the front of a landy, it's huge, probably need to reinforce the chassis, not coz of the pull, but because it will droop otherwise.

pigster Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 the funny thing is about that winch is that its slower than a standard 8274, noiser than a jumbo jet, and is way too big. but its Free spool is brilliant. Not sure about the disc break though for stopping it.. Looks like its come off a Mountain bike... jims, from Gigglepin however - - WOW.. loved that one.

FridgeFreezer Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 IIRC (before that nasty Jez got him in a huff) he said it was about 90kg and the size of my house. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

will_warne Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 Yeah, I still can't get over how BIG that thing is! I'm also unsure about the brake. Jims stuff, mmmmmmm, nice. That's the way I'll be going. I've just got to finish the vehicle they'll go on first Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark90 Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 Having looked a Jim's you do have to wonder how many will buy one of those HUGE things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
will_warne Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 The other thing is that Jim competes. He KNOWS what's needed. Its also nice and simple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dollythelw Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 I think what you are in danger of forgetting Will is that Davie Bowie is the "daddy of winching" and this time "the daddy of winching has done good" and to quote the man himself its "simply brilliant" I think Jims a big enough lad to take that squarely on the chin and concede defeat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bull Bar Cowboy Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 "David Bowyer asks Jez Goodwin if he will be using the G12 on the next Ladoga" Hmmmmmmmmm ………… I’ll get me coat ….. I’m just glad Jez is a 150 miles away Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FridgeFreezer Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 David Bowyer asks Jez Goodwin if he will be using the G12 on the next Ladoga Yes - as a ground anchor, or possibly take the gears out and the team can sleep inside the casing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dollythelw Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 think its pretty unlikely Ian on the plus side though - he very kindly told me my engine will explode killing millions of people and then my winch wont work so there at which point his lower lip hung out and he stamped his feet.. when are you up this way for a beer?
