[ATTACH][ATTACH]6504Checking to see what came with it,everything I needed was there.
Next came measuring and marking for grinder work, left the bar on as was easier than remove and refit it
Had to cut radiator support panel to fit the box on top, easy job in all, hardest part was lifting winch in & out and then trying to put nuts in the winch mounts, a well a few scun hands and knuckles and the job was complete in 7 hours start to finish. serving a few customers in the meantime as well, bl--dy customers LOL
Tested it the next day and surprise surprise it hauled the Tonka Toy easily up my steep driveway, I even forgot to take the handbrake off at one stage. Cost of winch delivered $385

Don't really need the winch, but you never know really, because the tyres are great, come for a run with us and find out, don't need 4wd often either LOL
