With Jane away taking care of new born Judy. Jim worked some more on the winch install.
 Jim was a super hero in his past life, so he possessed some super human strength. In other words he was in a wheel chair and pushing himself around so it beefed up his arms. He bent the small pipe across his leg by hand with ease.    He then determined where the winch would come out at.    Jim threaded the winch spool piece with some of that new synthetic winch line. Much safer and stronger then the braided Spyderwire fishing line that Jim used in the past.  Jim began work on converting the GWS brand steering servo to winch duty.      As it turns out all you have to do to disconnect the centering device is remove this plastic piece.  In case you wondering what the centering device looks like here it is. The one in the servo was junk from over use causing it to twitch. Jim stole this one from the servo savage drawer out of a standard futaba servo.  I soldered the new part into place.  After tuning it with the radio Jim centered the servo and placed a drop of CA on the centering device to stop it from turning. He then placed it back in the chassis.  He threaded the guide tube and spool with line, then mounted the winch with the unused left over servos mount brackets from my TLT kit.  The front section was solidly bolted to the chassis with another battery bar.  Completed install  In testing the winch couldn't pull any farther. Not enough torque.  We will have to work on that with power upgrades. The Rooster Esc only has like a 2amp BEC not enough juice for the 2 servos anyways. Last year I had a similar setup on my Bruiser running off of 7.2 volts that could lift the entire truck off the ground. The problem with torque I think also has to do with the large winch spool, the 5-6ft of line is nice though. I think maybe Jim and I will try and overload the servos chip thing to see how much voltage it can take, we have tons of spares. If that does not work we may go to a micro servo switch setup. The chassis is running out of space Jim needs to buy some smaller electronics and get that bed cover built.
