So I've got myself a winch, I've gone for a smittybilt XRC 10,000lb So got it into the workshop today and started the wiring Albright Contactor so i can get rid of the factory solenoid unit.  Also put a winch isolation switch into the grille  Looks like this with the grille on  Rest of the wiring going in tomorrow

I decided to have the winch control via a carling switch inside the cab, and mounted it rather conveniently where the controls for the electirc windows are  Once the winch was I decided to go for some Plasma rope to keep the weight down a bit  D44 Stainless Steel Fairlead  I then put back the winch cover and used Zeus Fasteners so that it can taken off quickly when Off Road  I'm really pleased with the outcome, the truck is sitting nice and level. This is the first time i've put a winch in myself and anyone who knows me, electrics is not my thing Thanks to Browny & Bolty at D44 for the use of the tools and knowledge, cheers....... Oh yeah and thanks to Jake who took all my cash when i got the bill
