I have had better luck with the brass quick connectors. Steel ones didn't last very long before they gave problems.

Yeah... it got pretty involved before I got through. That is a M8274 Warn which I already had and it has it's own dedicated battery mounted along side it. The power cables are only 18" long 2ga. so it does't experience much voltage drop during heavy pulls. I pulled battery charging voltage from the trailer recptacle. I built a whole new receiver and winch mount for the project.
