Recommended Winch And Mounting Locations
Question:
I want drag tree logs up a 10 ramp into my minivan, release and repeat. †he logs are on the ground and I will get then onto a dolly, I want the winch to roll it to the car then up a 10 ramp. Can I install the winch in the rear passenger compartment of the 2007 honda odyssey, by bolting it directly on the carpet to the floor and the wiring it into the car battery My plan would be, when driving around and I see logs by the roadside, to stop, assess, contact homeowner, set out ramps, plug a chain around a log and let the winch pull it along the ground and up the ramp.

In your scenario, we will want to look at a utility which. This will allow you to have a winch that has a free-spool option that lets you pull rope out fast.
The Bulldog Winch Trailer Winch # BDW15020 will enable you to efficiently drag the tree logs from the ground, up on dolly, to your van, and then up a 10 ramp. Because we don't know how heavy the logs are going to be, and we are not sure how much your vehicle's floor can handle use your best judgment when attempting to drill holes in your floor boards when installing the # BDW15020. yes the wiring can be connected to the van's battery.
