Tow Rolla

[Jack Nicholson]

The Porsche is on cash advance on a credit card but most of the other stuff I own outright

Wait, watt? I thought you were joking about the Porsche?

if your looking for a winch to drag immobile shitboxes on the back..

Fark that's cheap. Wouldn't trust it on a 4wd but would be perfect for a trailer.

Still don't know what to do about getting a dead rolla onto it. Don't want an electric winch as it apparently triggers the hwy patrol. Might make a trailer hitch to drop on a hand operated boat winch

Stick it in a tool box. Small slot for the cable to go through.

From most reports the dominator winches are good things

Why?
Suspicion of being an un-authoruised tow truck?

Its not a crime to own a tilt tray with a winch to tow your own cars, if you cave because you might get asked some questions then you let them win; Would you not own a car trailer with a winch>?
If your rolling around with a car you own on the back they cant do squat, if your rolling around with a just a winch they cant do squat and if its your mates car then it aint going to be hard to prove its not commercial.

Tow ball on the tray and a winch with a trailer hitch bolted to it. Drop winch on ball, use then take off and hide.

Surely a privately rego’d truck used for race car transport can’t be touched by hwp if you’re not breaking any laws or moonlighting as a towie. Unless you look like a Swede?

In all seriousness, put a “not for hire” sticker on the back of the tray.

Next door neighbour has an electric winch on his banana back F truck, never been pulled over on the way to multiple racetracks (Commodore Cup and IPRA).

Just bolt the winch under the tray up front with a small lid to pop up to run the cable through, might work?

[ALLMTR]

I think the winch will need to be in the middle with a couple of pulleys at the front. It'll be a bit tight up there

[irsa76]

Put a 2" hitch receiver on the headboard and use a hitch mount winch plate, remove when not needed.

[ALLMTR]

Headboard? The front bumper will be about 3 inches off the cab

[irsa76]

Sounds like the winch might need to be in the cab.

[ALLMTR]

Maybe I could mount it in the middle with a couple of pulleys....

[irsa76]

That will work, I've seen guys who mount the winch so they can run the cable out the front or rear.

Exhaustive testing has begun. Went 100km, sits on 100kmh like a boss, well pleased
