Tubular winch bumper

[makeitfit]

Got round to wiring up the winch at last today :thumb2 Several hours in a row with no rain :clap
Oiked out the old air box ( now redundant with the snorkel) to make a luverly spot for the solenoid

Had a little rearranging to do in order to get the solenoid high enough . Lengthened all the cables from the winch and heat sealed the ends up :thumbs All ends greased up now too

Remote sender just zip tied in place , simples
Testing the dynema tomorrow :sly

Looks good, but tell me, is that dyneema? if so you seem to have the protecting sleeve at the hook end, I thought it should be on the first layer on the drum to protect from drum brake heat, am I wrong, Rick

 

[Fez_uk]

sleeve at both ends

 

[solarman216]

sleeve at both ends

mine have only come with one sleeve, and to be honest cannot see the point of the sleeve at hook end unless you slide it back to protect against trees etc, Rick

 

[makeitfit]

Sleeved both ends :thumb2 Keeps the dyneema safe when the end is hooked up on the car etc.
It looked like this tonight :lol
