  • Its not pulling 27t though!

    Its only a estimated pull of 7t. Would probably be nearer 3t in reality as the ground is more like hardstanding. Try lifting it up a vertical cliff, then it will be pulling 27t! The Fodens front winch is only a 10t winch.

  • Thanks for that guess - at no point did I say it was pulling 27 t. I said it was pulling a 27t truck. Try reading a bit further down the comments for Stonefisk's calculations from the REME Recovery manual which is 3.75 tonnes on short grass.

  • most warns fitted as standard should shift that truck no problems?

  • Absolutely - but the limitations are the battery capacity and duty cycle on the winch motor. Hydraulic has neither of these issues.

  • spot on and good point, I was just thinking grunt and not the long haul! If you were kitting out a Discovery 4 could you add a hydrolic winch and any suggestions?

  • How about a Milemarker H12 and an ARB winch bumper?

  • I am a Reme reccy mech so I must be wrong then. Stonefish must know more than me and all other trained reccy mechs then.

    Always round everything up when making a EP. RR is 4t, GR 1t, DR 0t, SF 2t EP 7t. Squaddie maths, Keep it simple.

    A EP is always a guess which is why the E stands for .............Estimated and why you have a safety factor within the EP!

    You keep to your advice from the net and surplus REME manuals from Ebay then.

  • wow there i am in the hoodie on the right, next to the barrier and flag thing. good show to be fair.

  • ah ARB yes i was trying to remember one I had seen before thanks for that!
