Red Winches Nomad

[DCPU]

Red Winches coming out with a new product. I wonder if this is basically a de-rated version of the Grenadier winch?

 

[ADVAW8S]

I thought that too. It makes sense as their hornet version doesn't seem to fit into a bumper.

 

[CountyV8]

I thought the rear winch was a derated version of the front (via gearing)

 

[DCPU]

All I can think is that once Red Winches start selling it direct then much more detail will become available publicly.

I thought the rear winch was the same as the front but derated due to the load rating of the tow hitch mount.

And we can get an airs pool for it.

It shares the Grenadier freespool leaver

It would be interesting to know whether the air spool could be added to the Grenadier winch or whether it would be better/more cost effective to just go with the off the shelf offering like the Explorer II.

I had thought that Red said yes I enough demand so its not impossible.
But would need different remote like a Loadar.

It looks to me like the front end of the Grenadier:

Has a decent starting point for a variation on this (from Offroad Tec):

So more released on the Nomad from Red Winches.

Doesn't mention the IG's 11k rating.

For those who are not aware of the French speaking part of the forum, @DCPU posted some nice pictures of the "open door day" at Hedin Belgium and I did post two videos of my visit yesterday:

No engineers of Ineos Automotive, therefore I could not ask technical questions and the people of Hedin didn't know yet were the auxiliary power points are located in the footwells and under the hood of the Grenadier, therefore I showed them!

Hedin should offer you the job of part time consultant.

They see me more as a pain in the ass I guess.

I hope I will be able to get it, but I got some very nice once in a lifetime offer, next weekend I hope to tell you more.

Yes, I guess someone who knows more about their product than them, can make them feel uncomfortable. It's a shame, because if they wanted to learn more... but to some it's just what puts food on the table and pays the bills.

Awesome! I had a similar setup on my G500 (and then on my 958 CTT, using a long Anderson connector off the main chassis battery and out the driver rear window to the rear).

While only a 6k winch, with some snatch blocks, it could pull me rearwards if needed.

You‘re looking at my IG I took possession of that Grenadier the first week of July. That rear which…I didn’t take because I got the front winch. Now waiting on the rock sliders, cargo separator and a fix for all the dings & dongs. Hedin promised me everything will be ready by mid -september so that we can leave on our trip.
