Great machine! I noticed the winch. Did you install that yourself or does Carlton now have that as a option?

Carlton is a very nice co. to work with!!!!!!!!!!! they will do just about anything u want !! the color is bandit green we had them paint it to match our other equipment. we think it looks more professional if all your equipment is the same color and all your trucks are the same brand and so on.

HI ASD,

Did you provide the winch, and Carlton plumbed it up, or did they supply everything? It is a hydraulic winch isn't it? What size winch is it, how many lbs. of pull? Did they just add an extra station on your remote? What are the components above the winch, valving for the winch? Would you mind letting us know how much the winch and having it installed cost? Seems like a great idea.

The winch would be great for that machine. I have the same machine and twice now I have bottomed out in very wet muddy land clearing conditions and got the machine stuck and had to pull it out with my loader.

It is a hydraulic winch isn't it? yes

What size winch is it, how many lbs. of pull? it's a 10k

Did they just add an extra station on your remote? no it has a switch on the unit but i am going to change it to the same set up as one would have on a truck (wire remote)

What are the components above the winch, valving for the winch? yes


Would you mind letting us know how much the winch and having it installed cost? about $1900 and i think it is well worth it !!!!!!!
