Title: please don't mount your winch like this
Post by: fukkinrizzo on November 20, 2008, 11:57:35 PM
does not look safe at that angle. I doubt the stock bumper is strong enough to hold it at any angle. I hope he has reinforcements that I did not see

Absolutely nothing to worry about here.. cept sore toes..
he would never get enough tension on the cable to do any harm
other than the bumper tearing, once it tore enough, the winch would
just fall to the ground..

course.. I guess the electrical could start a fire  ==hmmm

I think he mounted it that way so he can winch it into a big hole and bury it.
Title: Re: please don't mount your winch like this

He probably uses that winch cable to keep is wheel running straight down the road....

exactly what i was thinking
(glad i read all the posts first)
i figure the winch keeps one wheel straight and maybe the steering wheel still turns the other?
