Have acquired a 12 volt electric winch with the names Desert Dynamics and THOR on it. Appears to resemble a Ramsey Winch.  Anyone know anything about it?

	I remember them too. I think I may have some info somewhere. When I get back home in a couple days, I’ll look around. I’d love to find one of those!

	Sidewinder was Hickey and then Advanced Adapters Hickey was also part owner in Desert Dynamics Winches which were eventually sold to Pierce Winches who also has the THOR Winches: https://www.piercearrowinc.com/pierce-arrow-manuals/ Here is a link to the DD T200 manuals: https://www.piercearrowinc.com/wp-content/uploads/pdfs/Desert_Dynamics_T200.pdf https://www.piercearrowinc.com/wp-content/uploads/pdfs/Desert_Dynamics.pdf Here is video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=82kbJCiPzQQ Edited by 48cj2a - 16 Jan. 2020 at 7:58am
