Hi, I'm looking for a pto driven winch. I have a lightly loaded Loadstar 1700 4x4 used mostly for camping and I want a winch strong enough to pull it out of the mud or a snowy ditch but nothing excessively heavy on the front of my truck. (I'm considering a heavier winch for the bed of the truck, but that's another post later on).
What capacity / brand / model do you recommend? It can be either pto shaft driven or hydraulic driven. My parts truck had a big hydraulic driven snow plow on it which I can probably convert to drive the winch. However I would prefer the simplicity of a shaft-driven pto winch, at least for the front of the truck.
Any suggestions / sources / advice etc would be greatly appreciated. I know almost nothing about winches so I posted here, sorry. Of course price is also a major consideration factor.
Thank you.
