WANTED Lewis Chainsaw Winch

Looking for one. I have lots of parts and saws to trade. Will have a freshly rebuilt 2171 to trade soon, as well as an 041 super. Of course my JD saws and white top 61 are available for trade as well. I just want one of those Lewis winches!

2171 fits nicely on a Lewis,,,

Not a bad idea. But I think an 041 super might be a better fit: solid chunka metal, 72cc’s, torquey, not good for anything else. lol

That depends

 

[Jake Dykstra]

Have one available. Used once basically new. Wouldn't mind another 400c if you could come up with one of those.

Yep a 2172 as well. Half a decade and a half dozen worn out cables, still pulling good.

 

[jacktheripper]

Nice. Still looking for one

Hit me up when u find one. Start out with vigilance and ah heavy dose of distrust and fear in the fkn things. I could write a book on all the ways these pieces of Lewis sht could kill you and all the flaws of the design. They're a necessary evil, and there's no replacement.

Those capstan rope pullers are useless when conditions are wet.Lewis is the only way.

Dont exceed 70 cc, its yer buffer of safety against that pathetic/thin cable. First ran mine on an ms 660, too much.

Upsize yer chokers, so when sht snaps (and it will), the heavy hardware stays with the log or snag, rather than picking a shackle out of your skull.

A 3/8" 6 ft and 10 ft will cover the majority of trees:
