Electric winch 12v to 24v

Post by nismo26 »

I've got a 12v Superwinch that I want to convert to 24v, do I just need a 24v motor and solenoid? Are there any bigger motor available like the ones 4wdbits sell? what is the advantage of putting a bigger motor on?

Alot of the Aussies run the 12v motors on the 24v trucks...(Comp trucks)
Runs faster :shock: You could just use it till the motor burns out and then look for a 24v replacement... :mrgreen: Or am I being rough bastard.... :twisted:
