1. A universal ratcheting winch insert device, the device comprising:
a stand-alone adaptor insert or hub and ratchet gear assembly that may be inserted within a cavity and fastened to an existing end of a one directional ratchet gear and tie down shaft being affixed to a transport trailer;
and wherein the ratchet winch insert device assembly comprises:
a ratchet gear assembly affixed to a stand-alone adaptor insert or hub;
where said insert or hub has at least one fastener hole or attachment lock that fall in line with the existing end of a one directional ratchet gear head holes of a tie down shaft;
the ratchet gear assembly being affixed to an underside of the stand-alone adaptor insert or hub, the ratchet gear assembly having routed out pocket with engagement teeth on an outer circumference of the ratchet gear assembly configured to receive a pawl mechanism;
where said pawl mechanism is affixed to an underside of a cylindrical bar socket and ratchet gear pulley assembly;
where said stand-alone adaptor insert or hub with an underside surface positioned in opposition to and in mechanical contact with the underside of the cylindrical bar socket and ratchet gear pulley assembly;
and wherein a configured joint assemblies engage and allow the ratchet gear assembly and/or ratchet winch insert device when inserted in the existing end of the one directional ratchet gear and tie down shaft being affixed to the transport trailer the ability to act as one unit;
where said existing ratchet gear head and ratchet winch insert device is configured to rotate in a first direction such that an existing ratchet gear head and ratchet winch insert device rotate as a single unit;
and where said ratchet winch insert device is configured to disengage when the cylindrical bar socket and ratchet clear pulley assembly is rotated in a second direction such that the existing ratchet gear head and ratchet winch insert device rotate independently.
