[QUOTE="ejt, post: 85933, member: 5985"] I have a chance to buy a Ramsey RPH hydraulic winch, 8000 lb. rating, which was on a truck that is being retired from service. I'm wondering if anyone here has ever put together a winch attachment for a skid steer. I've got a Bobcat 763 with aux hydraulics, rated at 15 gpm and 3000 psi system relief at the quick couplers. Ramsey's spec sheet for the RPH 8000 calls for 2500 psi and 15 gpm. Any thoughts about compatibility based on these specs? The winch is already installed in a frame made of angle irons, so I was thinking that it could be bolted/welded onto a standard skid steer mounting plate, then I'd have to get the correct hoses and fabricate a protective steel mesh screen in case the cable breaks. If anyone has any experience with this kind of setup I'd appreciate their feedback. Thank you very much. [/QUOTE]
