I appreciate all the kind words and I think I did pretty well on the paint considering I'm artistically retarded.

Im shocked that the screen enclosure aluminium doesnt hold up to a 6,000 pound truck on top of it. lol You my friend though built a working winch on the smallest budget ive ever seen so far. Props to you.

mvpaintballer88, the clutch works just great actually, its a little herky-jerky when its cold, but once its up to op temp its smooth as silk. The only problem I have is the damn 5 horse i have bolted to it.

ZoSo, He was definately slow to get up after that one

Distortion, appreciate it man, just gotta be patient and have some connections : )
