[TowerTalk] Fulton 2500 winch single or dual speed?

[Wayne Kline]

 Hi Gerald
 
  the Fulton 2500  is a single speed winch...a dual speed winch  takes LESS effort but more revaluations.
I have two 3200 lb dual speed winches ( old model with the removable handles )   this is a dual speed on Ebay

I never used  the newer shift gear style  ??
