Re: Trucks, Trailers, Towing and Misc Accessories

I just spent a bunch of time this weekend wiring my tow vehicle so that I can run the winch using the tow vehicle's battery (with the truck running of course). I'm tired of messing with the batteries in the trailer,,,always worrying about charging it. I ran wire from the battery to the hitch. Then from the winch to the tongue. I use a 4 foot length of wire with quick connect on both ends to bridge the gap. Anyone else done this?

Yeah, I hear ya. Something we just haven't gotten around to doing. The deep cylcle batt is usually good for a dozen pulls or so (I have no idea for sure, but we don't have to constantly charge it while pulling a vehicle or two/week on average), but would be nice to just plug it into the tow vehicle.
Just looked through pics, and the only one I have is one of the few low-res that I didn't save the hi-res. Shows 1700 on it.
