    Winch system for lawn mower and outside steps

    YEASH, I can take the average wheel base and use something like angle iron to fashion an inconspicuous ramp! heck, it could even be pressured treated lumber at first. Those small AC winches would be ideal! In the day i could simply carry the equipment up. Now I try to work smarter not harder. I...

    Winch system for lawn mower and outside steps

    Thank you. I guess the steps are a 20 foot run of low angle steps that I drag equipment back up. The steps are such that with a little effort I can move the wheel(s) up one step at a time. I could mount a small winch, hidden in the bushes on the side of the stoop, just to help me pull it up… i...

    Winch system for lawn mower and outside steps

    I am looking for a specific solution not asking for a money saving alternative. I didn’t include “bluetooth” controller in the OP, because it might be beyond the innovation limit here. Just looking for an idea. Thank you, it was late.

    Winch system for lawn mower and outside steps

    Every time i have to move the lawn mower or lawn vacuum up the steps to the upper level, i have to pull them up the steps. I want to install a small winch to help pull these up. Any ideas?

    Since this is a custom project I am going to wait until I get back to personally measure the top link’s hole and span width, use a drill press to accurately drill the holes and weld the bracket to fit the right length pin. Thanks for everyone’s help….

    The holes on some of the other equipment is about 3/4” so the pin must be smaller. That top pin must not bee so important.

    Ye, i was about to drill a 13/16” hole then i thought I should verify what the top link size is first.

    This was very helpful. I sent a message to verify top hitch hole size before I begin fabrication. I removed the splitter from the trailer and welded a loop on the top. The green splitter image I borrowed….but this where I am headed. I will run hoses from the Kubota’s hydraulics.

    I am modifying a wood splitter to mount vertically on my Kubota. I will weld a cross bar for the side attachment point and making tabs to weld to the top where a pin can be unserted. the tabs will be 3/8” thick and the clevis pin should be about 3/4” in diameter. question(s) If the pin is...
