Yeah I know but thats where the hole was drilled in the hat, so I just flipped the sticker to suit. Gotta find these bloody screws too. I think I will also change the top hat bolts to stainless steel and also the mounting bolts.
Where do I go to get the leads made for the motor to solenoid? Auto elec? I don't have the tools to make these.

Yeah I will get this fitted up first then worry about wiring it in. Plus I want to wire in dash switches too. And I have a remote kit aswell I'd like to wire in, if I can.

Yeah an industrial sparkie or some auto elecs will be able to do it pretty quick, just finding one with the time at the moment will be your real struggle.
I did see somewhere for sale some premade copper bars rather than cable which would be awesome.

Sounds great mate, watch them remote kits though, nearly crushed ourselves with a chinese version on a work logging trailer a while ago. Went straight afterwards to the Warn remote (horribly priced) but had zero scary lag like the other death trap design!!

Be careful putting stainless anywhere load is required. Off the shelf stuff does not have the same rating as a grade 8 tensile bolt.
Do you guys have cooldrive near by?? These guys can sell you pre-made lengths of your requested cable or make them to your custom length. Other mobs similar to them should also be able to supply.

Mark, I have one of those hydraulic crimp set-ups you are welcome to borrow if you go down the path or making your own leads. Handles a wide range of cable sizes. Slow and steady, bit of shrink tube and happy days.

Good point about the Stainless. Also, put a bit of never-seize of equivalent on the thread, not Loctite. SS is tough but more plastic and will readily deform and bind up in even dissimilar metal combo's. Just bought some M30 threaded bar for work - high tensile grade of 316SS - $1500/m M30 - poison but application specific.

Yep. Got a quote not long ago for some rated stainless socket head cap screws for an underwater pump. They were m20x60 and were just over $80 each.

Thanks Phil I may take you up on that offer. Not sure how to use them but I’m sure I’ll learn.
Almost time to remove the bar and get the grinder out.
I’ve been toying with the idea of cutting the loops off the ARB bar and just having the steel bumper section. I kinda like the look of that but I do realise the usefulness and added protection the loops give.
Thoughts?
