I'm talking about lifting antenna for rigging to radio towers, so site ground conditions vary. But presuming best case scenario for now and i have a tarmac or concrete with decent friction will be a good start. The winch will be chosen to suit the load the 4x4 can lift.
[smile] Perhaps this attachement will help? Only focussing on the horizontal pull, but may need to consider a 10degree gradient.
Presumably load capacity is dependant on weight and ground friction but how to i calculate this, do I need to consider wheel base and load distribution on the...
Hi, can anyone help with this query?
Looking to use a 4x4 as an alternative to a ground anchor such as a platypus. The 4x4 will be the anchor point for the winch as part of a lifting rig.
Assuming flat ground conditions how would I calculate the load capacity of the ground anchor (I.e the...
