I've heard alot about that my 5600C4 will die soon if I pull double 10s alot and I need a Winch. Given the cost of the Winch models, are there any people that could upgrade the common fail parts in the C4 for possibly less money and then have a custom reel?
The C4 has 6.3:1 gears, the pinion gear is so small in that reel that if you try to reel DC10 all day long the pinion will fail. You can replace them with 5.3:1 gears that will help but they will fail also if you use it for DC10 alot during a season. You need a Toro Winch or a Calcutta B or TE, save your $$$$ for one or sell your C4. Good Luck |
