Motorized Trailer Dolly Build, Full DIY Process

This is my version of a motorized trailer dolly or trailer tug. Built from a winch and the carcass of a dead rototiller.

Ben, Thanks for the video. I am also working on converting an old Troybuilt to be a tug.
What did you settle on for sprocket sizes?
And chain? 35, 40 or 50?
I know the wheel shaft already had a sprocket, but how many teeth? 32?
And you purchased 2 sprockets for the winch, how many teeth on the one you decided worked best for you?

Hey Laser, thanks for watching. It was a 40 size chain, which i selected just to match the tiller drive sprocket. I'm not sure on the number of teeth on the tiller part- 34 maybe? The sprockets on the winch side were 15 and 20 tooth. I settled on the bigger size, but either would have worked, I think. Probably depends on your trailer size and how far you gotta go with it. If I were to do it again, I'd pick a bigger winch motor for longer duty cycle, but I was doing it on the cheap.

Just a heads up, you amazon links are not complete. It just shows a shortened URL without an actual link
