I did this with a Tristao MA-40 with a TH-3jr on top. It
worked perfectly. I mounted the house bracket for the
tower on the side of the house next to a second story
window so I could unbolt it easily by just reaching out
the window. Highly recommended if it works in your
situation. I put a pulley on the house bracket and
located the winch on the ground.
