Re: Winches

If you can't necessarily make your own custom shifter like they did, I suspect you can do something along the lines of take a dog shifter from, say, VexPro or AndyMark, and take one of the drive gears off.

The dog shifters offered by WCP in conjunction with VexPro have a dog gear that, if you take off one of the drive gears, should toggle between drive and neutral. This is true for pretty much any dog gear shifter you'll find, if you can find others (I think AM uses dog shifting)
