<< < (2/8) > >>

Axle:
So how soon are you looking at putting in a winch, Rocket?

rocket:
probably w/ my income tax return, so order in the next week or so.  same w/ my sliders.

Do winches come w/ all the wiring needed to install them, or will i have to get that seperate?

It will come with all the wires to hook it up normally so you can use the handheld remote to operate it. However, I highly reccommend this: http://12voltguy.com/incabwinch.htm
The beauty of it is that it doesn't disable the use of the handheld if you still want to use it. I like being able to winch from in the cab incase I need to be turning the tires, steering, and winching at the same time...

rocket:
I was looking at that, Jon told me about him.  looks cool.  i also saw http://www.yotatech.com/~corey/tech/transalper_incab_winch_control/transalper.htm were it also would look pretty good (I'd have to find a good spot to mount that switch).

And since Scott and JD have had good luck w/ the Chicago Electric, I'm not scared to take a chance w/ a cheap winch.

HOT-ROD:
be sure to properly spool it first and get comfortable with it and know it's capabilities. also i would get one of the synthetic lines that was posted and was rated to about 16,000 lbs i think....
