New Winch Setup...

[RonB]

I was also trying to find a good place to route my front winch cable...just settled for keeping it coiled inside the grill. I just reach in and pull it out when I need it. I haven't figured out what to do with the rear cable yet. It's tucked up around the rear reciever. I saw a picture here on the forum once with the rear cable bolted to the rear bumper? I want to do something -- I'm excited about the 28th outing to check out what others do.

I too was concerned with the loss of approach so I leave it in the back and pull it out when needed (rarely). But it makes me feel better having it back there. I made a place for the winch to sit so it doesn't slide around or bouce up and kill me on steep hills. It bolts to the same holes the old spare tire carrier used. Myself and others have very recently posted pics in General Discussion about this subject, in the "In Bumper Winch" thread.
