The video is what I presently have mounted. I plan to mount the winch box below the TM steering motor housing and add a idler pulley to change directions of the cable by placing the idler near as possible to the shaft.

I plan to use two shaft couplers (2 piece type) on the shaft near the motor. The top collar will be fixed and made of medal. The bottom will be Teflon and will slip. I will attach the cable to the bottom collar. The bottom collar will slip as the motor turns (I hope). This slip should allow a no slack cable operation.

The TM weigh about 18lbs. The shaft is the same as the V2, so I have no doubt that this shaft strength will allow me to lift the weight.

These are my ideas. Comments welcomed. Thanks.
