Anyone know where replacement winches for towers can be found? The
winches should be the full brake variety which crank up and crank down
not the freewheel type popular on boat trailers.


I found a replacement for my Hygain HG-54-HD tower through:

Dutton-Lainson Co.
Hastings, NE

http://www.dutton-lainson.com/mfg/brakewinchspecspage.html

Model DLB 2000A  (2000 lbs capacity)

This is a bi-directional friction brake model.

I have found it to be an excellent replacement.
