They’re stiff to turn, but also wobbly. So yeah, yours sounds normal.I've got a different question about the clutch lever on a 2024 PW winch: I can engage and disengage the clutch - its a little stiff, but it works fine. However, when I move the lever, the connection to the winch feels sort of loose - and there is a little play in that connection. Does that seem normal to folks or should the clutch lever attachment be rock solid?
