It also increases your power having a bit more leverage

Only on the first wrap. As the rope layers increase the winch looses power so a short winch of 5m or 10m of rope and the winch will be its weakest.
To benefit from the power increase you would need nearly all of your rope out.

The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

Yep that's why it's recommended to do double line pulls... But with a big 6hp who cares?? =)

Should be here in a couple of weeks...

Good work winnie. Be sure to post some pics up of the finished product. I think my winch has seen its last days, even after i redone it last year. I think it need a new motor, made some funny noises when i coiled the rope back on a few months ago. Its like the ZD, it just dont want spend anymore coin on it.
I haven't read, but you obviously got the winch for a good price yeah?
