Brunet-Hemi Posted May 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2015 They sell the exact same winch with synthetic line aswell. And the manual days nothing about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brunet-Hemi Posted May 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2015 Got the screw out. (Extractor bits are worth their weight in gold :) Found a terminal for the rope she's on there good and snug. And a New screw. All i need now is a hawse style fairlead. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eastcoastcam Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 I would give you the hawse fairlead I have here, but it is not the right one. The one I have is a steel one for steel cable... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brunet-Hemi Posted May 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 Yeah that wouldn't work. Thanks for the offer though. Oh and i now have a roller fairlead i don't need if anyone needs one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomWood Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 Checked in on the fairlead, its for steel cable as well. Hopefully you can find one or get one ordered soon :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eastcoastcam Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 Yeah that wouldn't work. Thanks for the offer though. Oh and i now have a roller fairlead i don't need if anyone needs one. What do you want for it? Mine could stand to be replaced, if I don't use the hawse one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerram Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 Whatcha doing with the steel cable. Is it 3/8 or 5/16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brunet-Hemi Posted May 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 What do you want for it? Mine could stand to be replaced, if I don't use the hawse one. Nothing. She has some scuffs on the rollers. You can check it out at the meeting tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brunet-Hemi Posted May 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 Whatcha doing with the steel cable. Is it 3/8 or 5/16 Its 3/8. Not planning anything with it really. It had a few flat spots and a small bird cage in another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brunet-Hemi Posted May 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2015 So my fairlead showed up today :D Got that installed with a some spacers to bring it closer to the face of the bumper,also trimmed the bumper more due to the rope being more susceptible to abrasions and re-installed the winch, and a few days ago i moved the control box up behind the grill, ( yes, Jay i stole the idea from you ;)) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brunet-Hemi Posted May 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2015 Picked up 12' of 1.5" pipe for my bumper to supplement the 2" that I'm going to get from Jay.

Brunet-Hemi Posted May 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2015 Some of you may have already seen it but Saturday was "Fabrication Day' at Jay's Garage :D. Wheeled it Sunday as bare metal. Sunday night I put a few coats of rattle can bed liner on it. I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out. Welds aren't exactly nice to look at, but the damn thing is strong that's for sure. A huge thanks to Jay for letting me use his pipe bender and welder :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derekmac Posted May 25, 2015 Report Share Posted May 25, 2015 Damn, looks good Matt!! I'd love to build a tube bumper for mine too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SQRLPWR Posted May 25, 2015 Report Share Posted May 25, 2015 Anytime Matt, I'm just stoked it turned out so well for you :) I was 30 seconds away from running out and buying the pipe for mine today......then I saw the bathroom still sat in the garage. Gotta fit that 1st or I'll be in big do-do ROFL :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
