I cleaned my Ramsey 8k winch today. 28 yrs old seldom used. Cleaned connectors and solenoid nuts and copper straps. Used toilet cleaner 25 % acid cleaned off rust and corrosion works great.

@harvestblades 2 года назад

Have a REP 8.5e I will be doingbthat to as soon as I find a controller.

Nice Vid!!! Keep it up!

@UnitCrane514 9 лет назад

An owners manual that says when it breaks, just "Whack it with something!" Sounds like a great product! Put me down for an order, I want 10! 😊😎

@harvestblades 2 года назад

Honestly that is a tried & true "fix" for a stuvk solenoid & something manynofvus have down on a starter over the years. It isn't a fix but it will get you buy which is the key if yourvrig is stuck & or you have 100' of cable spooled out.

@IceTeeXx 9 лет назад

You know something is built tough when the manual tells you to start hitting stuff to try and fix it lol

@tylerbleepinjeep606 9 лет назад

IceTeeXx no kidding! I had to laugh when I read it but it really worked the first time I did it.

@coachd6100 9 лет назад

Hahaha... Bird noises. Loved the solenoid whack.

@harvestblades 2 года назад

Is that a universal winch controller? I have a Ramsey REP 8.5e with no controller and looking for a reliable, but budget friendly option.

@tedaregi9861 4 года назад

i got a 4500lb winch from a buddy of mine for my atv. i cant find a manufacture on it anywhere. the prob. i am having im trying to hook it up and there is no A post on the winch also there is no ground hookup on the bottom . Any ideas would be very helpfull. Thank You so very much.

@AZBADBOYz 9 лет назад

WOW, thanks! I have the same winch and it's doing the same exact thing.

@tylerbleepinjeep606 9 лет назад

I'm glad to see this can help. That's really why I do these videos, so hopefully you guys can fix your stuff when you see them. It sucks having to replace an $800 winch when the repair might be as simple as a piece of copper plate. I hope you can fix yours like I did! Thanks!

@AZBADBOYz 9 лет назад

Well bad news, wasn't my issue. Pretty sure my switch is bad now. Everything looks like brand new inside plus being in AZ we get very little water/humidity issues. Still great info to put out there!!

@tylerbleepinjeep606 9 лет назад

try bridging the contacts where the switch plugs into the solenoid housing. If its just the switch, bridging the contacts will activate the winch. It doesn't hurt the winch either. Give that a try before you buy a new switch.

@ozo1010 4 года назад

Thats a nice winch , the construction looks better thatn my warn x9000i

@bradleycampbell5933 9 лет назад

use copper water pipe, hammer it flat and cut then drill holes. works for electrical cable ends too. hammer it flat and solder it in

@tylerbleepinjeep606 9 лет назад

That was my original idea but I just happened to have the copper plate laying around. The only thing I would add if using copper pipe is to anneal it after you pound it flat so it doesn't get brittle and break prematurely.

@bradleycampbell5933 9 лет назад

sweet! no real reason to anneal it. copper is soft and will generally stay soft. and it is available all over the country and canada too. it is a great way to make a battery cable end as well.

@SINNERCHIROPRACTIC Год назад

Soldering works surprisingly well..I've slit, flattened, and soldered copper water pipe over a square body gas tank hole...

@danwieland9827 5 лет назад

Why in these videos is the wind always so bad ?

@southgajeeepers2416 9 лет назад

Awesome

@shawnmrfixitlee6478 9 лет назад

Great repair man ! kinda wonder why that split like that ? Must of been rattle in that bar and over time it cracked ..

@tylerbleepinjeep606 9 лет назад

ShawnMrFixit Lee Ya, I think over the years of wash-board roads it finally just fatigued and cracked. The copper straps hold the solenoids in place on the rail so there is a bit of vibration that goes through the straps as the solenoids jiggle going down the trail. I probably should have annealed all the plates but I didn't think of that until a few days after the repair.

@shawnmrfixitlee6478 9 лет назад

It may hold up fine man ! good fix ..

@outcastartickat 8 лет назад

i have a ramsey winch question bought a rew8000 used the ground term on the winch body do i ground it to the frame or run it to the ground on the batt. 3 trems on the winch 2 larger ones go to the solenoid box and ground goes?

@bleepinjeep 8 лет назад

+downsouth_ Zj to the battery

@outcastartickat 8 лет назад

+BleepinJeep k thanks can't find much info on how to wire a Ramsey winch online but for 150 bucks for what I paid for it I'll ask and build from scratch.

@outcastartickat 8 лет назад

k so their is only two terms on the winch it self no ground lug so how does the motor ground?

@Ep1cSh0rtz 9 лет назад

Badass

@tylerbleepinjeep606 9 лет назад

So what do you guys think- Ramsey or Warn? Which is better?

@enterBJ40 8 лет назад

+Tyler Bleepinjeep for industrial heavy duty application RAMSEY is the name. Warn is ok for weekends off roading

@garybrown9719 4 года назад

Good catch next use your meter first Saves time

@DependableAutoTruck Год назад

i have a warn winch looks just like that one its a i8000

@joshprice7545 9 лет назад

I need help I have a 94 jeep xj and need help with the front pump seal its auto can you make a video or something

@tylerbleepinjeep606 9 лет назад

Water pump seal?? Can you be more specific?

@joshprice7545 9 лет назад

Transmission

@tylerbleepinjeep606 9 лет назад

Ooooh... That's a bad one. You have to pull the whole tranny out to do it. I would recommend a complete rebuild at that point. If the pump seal is worn out, the guts are probably not far behind. It would be cheaper to find a low- mileage used tranny and swap it in.

@MrAgatto2 7 лет назад

you could have just silver brazed the plate... if you did not have one convient it would have been stronger then the copper plate

@bradleycampbell5933 9 лет назад

write it all down and read it for the end messages. dry run it..read it to yourself and go slower than you think you need to. good luck

@southgajeeepers2416 9 лет назад

Looks like you have your outs and ins mixed up

@NickInTimeFilms 9 лет назад

South ga jeeepers Watch where the cable is on the drum. Without tension on the cable it starts riding back up and appearing to go the opposite direction.
