Abstract: A winch adapter including a unitary body having both a primary and a smaller secondary casing. A pair of levers, with handles, are pivotally attached to the secondary casing. A lug disposed on each lever opposite the handle is inserted through a hole in the primary casing and is maintained therein by tension from an associated elastic band against each lever, but the handle on each lever can be depressed to pull the lugs from their respective holes. The outer casing can then be inserted over a winch nipple with its own pair of holes, at which time, the handles would be released, causing the lugs to be inserted through holes on both the primary casing and the winch nipple. An air gun can then be used with the secondary casing and a drive on the secondary casing, allowing the air gun to rotate the winch adapter and the winch.
