im building a removable support on my Tacoma for my winch,since its a quick disconnect set up i am wondering if i can fit this winch on the pinzgauer as well, my doubt is... if i run a separate STRONG BATTERY(like a optima batt.) on the pinz just for the winch.... can i isulate the positive 12volt straight to the winch and ground the 12 volt battery to the chassis??? .... :roll: is this possible??? can i run same ground for 12 volts and 24 volts?? even if everything is running at the same time???.... :roll:im not worry about recharging the 12 volts batt, i would recharge it off the pinz....

Yes you may us the a common ground. just remember that depending on how you wire things you maybe defeating factory battery shut off feature. how do you intend to keep the 12v battery charged?

i understand that a deep cycle battery can give me a few pulls in a day on this winch, so i planned on re charge everyday after use, im hope to use it couple times on 1 day, do you guys think a optima yellow top battery will do???
