Totally thought that was Mauler forgetting who's name he was logged in under again :redneck:

I try to catch him when he does that, the stinker, it just confuses the hell out of people. Well, anyone who knows me, knows anything technical/mechanical coming out of my "mouth" isn't me talking. And that anything "smart-assy" IS me talking :redneck:

It was me asking............just that single pull rear winches(unless fullsize) don't really work.............. thats all.

You mean using a snatch block?

Use some kind of pulley to double the pull. That's how most do it....I know with mine I don't think it would work well if at all single pull, that's with a 1500lb ATV winch.

Ok my mind set is right then :redneck:

I didn't even think that was an issue and I went with how the rig was built. I don't know if it matters any this is like a 3500# winch...

 

[Roccrawler]

also the pull is more controlled with it doubled

 

[briejer]

It's a 3700lb winch

Ok it was another step forward tonight. I was able to get the alt wired to the junction stud on the firewall along with both gauges :awesomework:

As you can tell I am very picky about wiring retention. So to retian the loom I ended up making some brackets for the loom to hold down to...

Nice work Crasher!

Ok----since I have been able to start it I have been seeing a coating of oil on the passenger side below the res tank for the steering.

Well I cleaned it off real good last night------and found we have an issue. The picture really doesnt show it real well---but it apears fluid is seeping out around the welds for the fittings that go to the pumps :booo:

So I looked over the rig tonight--and I don't think its going to be real feasable to do this style on the rig (quickly looking). You have to remember how low the chassis is--and the fact of how how the diff is. When the wince is sucked down all the way--there is only a few inch's between the winch and the truss on the axle...

I welded the PS resivore, if it is leaking, I will fix it. :booo:

**** happens man.... Hell at least you can do it and make it look purdy (like it is)---me--I will make a fawkin mess of it :haha: :haha:

The front driveshaft is not looking good, I was at Deans today and some of the parts Robin gave him might not work.

uh oh :eeek:

 

[WHITE TRASH1]

Is it just me or is it the angle of that pic of the winch cable... But couldn't you run a pulley off of the axle directly and back up to the chassis rather than to the "bridge"?

Its hard to show the angle--but its just plain tight and no room down there without doing something rather crafty...

 

[Corey Y]

Crash, what time tomorrow can I pick the resivore up?

Crafty like mounting a couple tabs to the lower side of that tube with a pulley between them....
