    I find a winch there more useful than on the front. I also have a receiver mounted one that I can also anchor to a tree or whatever…as long as the battery lasts

    Need a round tuit. Upgraded from my old 12k that served me well for many years, two decades, finally died…bought used - to a used 15k. Haven’t modded the fairlead yet. Feeding off the boom, the cable generally goes where it’s supposed to.

    Not much time but real good so far. 32” aggressive round filed full comp, didn’t balk. I like the feel and the self tuning. A little heavier than a 390 but lighter than a 395 and more torque than the 390. Ported by a fella (Simon) in western Canada who was well known and died young at 51...

    I've got a Simpson capstan. Useful. So much of our work is away from the truck, and other things to buy.

    Well, at least you have a powered winch to put to the job as required. I applaud. I needed the well-used and often neglected Lewis winch, powered by an ancient but reliable Stihl 056, more than a few times when the truck mounted Warn couldn't be put in play.

    Well done. What tricks has it been treated to? The 3/4 wrap handle is a must in my world. I loved the USFS owned 066 I ran for at least 15 years when working as a govt. slave wage peep :). The Hotshot crew's stock 660 I used a few times on fireline work was a disappointment in comparison...

    Winch for the win. I'd have been left with few palatable choices many a time in my USFS work without the big Warn on the front bumper of my several assigned 4x4 trucks. I have not heard yet any real reason why so few arb services have one or more on their rigs...maybe it is pure lack of...

    @Cobleskill yep, brass welch. The screw had an irregular thread so I didn't put any locktite. Now I'm second guessing my decision.
