Going to find one tomorrow. I will probably use a power steering pump from a big truck. And may add power steering at the same time. I have read that a hummer winch is very strong using the stock steering pump so a big unit should do. I also have a 24 volt electric hummer winch that is huge i could try.

If I had the cash I'd take the 24v winch off your hands. I need something for the 715.

I have a p/s pump off a 5 ton multifuel, but it'll probably need some attention before being installed. Shoot me a pm if you're interested.

He might be okay with the hummer hydraulic winch, since it's a bobbed truck. I would like to convert the stock deuce winch to hydraulic driven some day.

stretch......what would be gained by converting from pto to hydraulic? Both will not work without the engine running, with the pto you get 5 forward speeds and reverse. Hydraulic has only one speed---slow. It would be very easy to convert your winch to hydraulic as long as you have a pump to drive the hydraulic motor, seems like a lot of work for no return. Help me out here...snakeater

1. No broken shear pins. The relief valve will provide the overload protection.
2. One person operation.
3. Operate from in cab or from front of truck with remote cable-linked valve.
4. Infinitely variable speed forward and reverse with one lever.

Hydraulic is great for winching. Speed can vary by valving, or engine speed. No clutches or shifters(stock shifter is tricky to shift). No need for shear pins, can set the pressure/motor size to stall at the right torque. Can be set up with remotes, including wireless remotes. Much easier to run by yourself. Both my trucks already have hydraulic systems on them, just a matter of hooking everything else up.

Well, the milemarker winch on my dodge Ram is a 2 speed (civilian) 12,000 lb. And I have the milemarker from the hummer which has a much larger hyd. motor so it has to be even better. I Bolted it to the bumper today and before the picture police get me (Sorry my batteries died on the dig camera) But for the humor here is my dodge pulling the deuce up a pile of stone untill the dodge kept sliding all 4's

He is thinking about a transfer case mounted PTO which would give you speed control through the gears of the transmission. Is it even possible to put a PTO on the transfer case of a Deuce?

The M49 deuce tanker comes with it and a linkage to the IP for constant rpm control when loaded down.....
