    Easy to fill feeders?

    I am looking to change over my feeders to something easier to fill. Currently backing truck up to feeder and standing on bed rail.
    Winch up are the first thing that pops in my mind. Any other suggestions? Any cool designs for the winch ups? I am not interested in the auger or blower type fill systems.
    Thank you

      I went winch up 5 years ago and will never go back. Make sure to get e true 'brake winch' on your setup.

          This is what I have. Easy to fill from ground. No more winch-ups for me.

            At 54 yrs old, I figured I needed to do the same. I ended up shortening the legs by about 2 feet and now I can stand on the bed of the truck without having to balance on the rails. Cheaper than buying several winchups to replace them.

                I hear ya on the true brake winch. I learned that on my round bale hay buggy. No more regular boat winch for me.

                  These Ranch King Mighty Midgets are nice, but at $1300, they sure as hell aren't cheap!

                    On the stand and fill, I can basically use my current drums/motors. Do I need to change the spinner plate or will a regular one still work and get corn to a good distance being that its that low to the ground?

                      Because of all the high water we had this year I am wanting to go to winch ups. If yall are getting rid of any please let me know.

                        Still works just fine. If you have a high, medium, low setting make sure it's on high and let it roll. We will be changing all of ours to stand and fill type.
