a guy i deliver to said he has a warn 12k hydro winch he'd sell me for $250. he said even if my engine died it would still work off the battery. is that true? hydro's can work both ways? hydro and off the battery? even if not. what are the comparisons hydro vs elec? i mean the ups & downs of both. oh, and what do you have to do to hook up a hydro? do i have to remove my a/c compressor?

i told him to bring in to his job so i can see it. he works at vehicle outfitters in charlton on rte 20. i wanted to see it first to see if it has a fairlead, remote, and good cable. he said he bought it second hand a couple years ago and never used it himself. so i don't even know how i could test it to make sure it works right. you never know after sitting around for awhile. especially a hydro winch. if you want i'll try to get his phone # next time i deliver there. and if he brings it in i'll check it out. but i dont know how to test it or anything so i'd rather you deal with him. that way if there's any issues i'm not in the middle.

theres not gonna be a remote.a hydraulic winch uses no electricity.it works off hydraulic pressure so you have to plumb a valve with handle in line of your hydraulic hoses.
