I finally fabricated the mount and put the winch on. The weather has been terrible, it took a while. I still need to reinforce the metal I trimmed when opening a space for the clutch selector.

Comments and constructive criticism welcome.

Nice Install... What type of winch is that?

 

Harbor Freight... I was afraid someone would ask. They have been good to me though.

thanks.

 

Very nice! What is the capacity of your winch?

 

8500 pounds

 

Nice job. and actually the Harbor Freight winches are not bad, as far as the Chinese made winches go. I saw a test recently that pitted 7 different brands against each other and only the US made Superwinch and Warn beat it. It outlasted all the Chinese winches and even beat a US made Ramsey...

 

Winches in Hell by MoabJeeper? Saw that one, great article. If not can you post the link?

 

Yeah, that's the one. I posted a link to it in the outdoor section not long after it came out...

 

Looks like you did a good job on the install to me

 

Very clean install, my only concern might be the cable rubbing on the bumper during extreme winching, but other then that, great job!
