Generic Question

[BKS]

The person who had my trailer before me, lost the winch handle, and in true ^%^$^*$&$^%# fashion used a pair of vise grips on the crank. Can I take this apart and replace crankpin? OR would I be better off just to buy a whole new winch?

I paid $20 for my winch at Harbor Freight. It came with a new strap and hook. I think it's gonna be hard to beat a $20 project.

My handle does slide on the winch shaft and attach via a small bolt. It can be replaced. Just where are you going to find a handle?

Thanks for the heads up. I need a new winch for my trailer as well, and walmart wants 35 bucks for one.
