Back around July 4th I had a coupon for a 2500lb Harbor Freight winch for $50 or something, so I bought one. Figured it might come in handy.
My IH 240 runs, but spews hydraulic oil so really it doesn't. I wanted to move it to my garage shop so I could work on it more than out at the farm.
That little 2500lb winch grunted a bit and got a little warm, but it pulled that tractor up on the trailer with me in the seat.
The coolest part was unloading. I backed the trailer up to the garage door, laid down the ramps, and pushed the tractor back until it gravity just started to take over. Then I stood back and hit the button on the wireless remote and watched the tractor roll smoothly off the trailer and into the garage.
Now I want to go buy a REAL winch.
