Best place to buy Warn Hi mount parts?

[MB]

Bugger the stickers sorry gents :-)
Very thankful we are to knowledgeable blokes mentioned above for suggesting extras like GigglePin Brake Shafts.
Again, we are asking an originally designed 8,000lb only winch to achieve 3.0T++ lugging/hill holding/breathtaking:-)

It's a good upgrade but not necessary. Expensive.
Upgrading your Warn brakeshaft by drilling and tapping a thread into the end so you can bolt on a cap, rather than relying on the circlip is a smart move though and cheap.

Yeah it's kinda how long is a piece of string in terms of what you can do to a mod a high mount. Depends on what and how much use it gets too I guess. I would get lower and brake service kits for now then motor and rope the other little things you can do are just hardware such as drain & fill plugs breathers etc. . . Also need Albright solenoid and switch for in cab. .

Totally agreed and....:-)
I probably haven’t explained experiences correctly as to their OEM capabilities. GQ’s (Y60 beasts) are light / GU’s (Y61’s tanks) are heavy!
Warn HM’s do absolutely need serious upgrading to be useful on a GU Mr Mudski Family Mate Y61 !!

Cant I just get the sticker kit in OZ? Or are they not available here?

No not that i am aware of. Warn In the USA will send you one for FREE.

Thought I might quickly get a few things off Amazon while before they close it off to us. I wasn't going to but, I am now. Lol. Without knowing what is needed, apart from the lower house service kit and the brake service kit. What else should be replaced regardless? I may not have time to strip it down fully by the weekend.

See this list

I have this upgrade is it is a Significant step up from the factory shaft. I really didnt get it until i fitted this and realised how bloody good it is! Impressive bit of kit. It is a lot more than just and End Cap.

Gigglepin Solenoid would be a No Brainer and if your happy to spend a bit of coin then this would make my list.

I assume your already accepting that you need a new motor and i would go with the Iskra as detailed above. This motor was not designed for Winching or vehicle applications and is an Industrial Motor. on this basis it has a different windings and brushes designed for constant load. The HP rating on them is also not based on the same scale as the Warn and Bow2 motors and they are highly regarded.

Tis about late night time you stepped in ‘Mentor’ mate :-) !
Now please do help better explain to the masses that Warn HM’s are useless on big trucks without big bucks ;-)
