Got the controller back for the winch, tried it out. No result.
Then removed the winch for further testing.
Bloody thing is holding up a trip.

Had a good set up. Had to remove the right side rear seat that gave me the length for my 6f2i frame, our Waeco is always in the rear, Coleman Dual Fuel stove and cooking box of goodies!
So we removed the bed replaced the rear seat and returned him back to a station wagon again!
Really looking forward to getting back to some normality,,,,,,,,
Christmas lights are up and running.

Ran an Anderson plug of the isolator to the back and into the caravan
Going to get it washed by the people who love to wash cars.
Jack taps here...........
I ran cable from second battery to Anderson plug at rear of truck, so I can charge camper trailer batteries while driving. Of course I added fuse at battery end
'shakey'
Washed it.
Lifted the bonnet up too quick and all this s#it came out of the gas strut. Hissed and bubbled at me and everything. lol
Now I gotta temporarily prop the bonnet up with a piece of wood!!!
Put new pumps in the washer bottle.
hahahaha its a GU thing i guess........... poor GU driversQuote:

Yeah, he was in a sticky situation where he needed both hands to steer, so I was able to control the winch from a safe location. Great little device.Quote:

Me and my mate got through it without hesitation another time, just took my mate's 60 out for the first time on Sunday and he was the one who had to winch out.Quote:

Added these.......
and in the process lost my 10mm ring spanner underneath the master cylinder... just cant get in there to retrieve it.. i hope i will hear it fall out.
Nice. You need a magnet on a stick. I like lots of lights. Particularly when Im heading off to the farm.
Took the front sway bar off due to a busted bolt on the drivers side joint thingy, Ran all the plumbing for the boost gauge, put the homemade bracket between the rear vision mirror inside the roof lining & passenger visor and screwed the cup onto the roof... All I need now is a 5mm tap and a drill bit to suit :)
Would have taken pics and done an idiots guide to... but I dropped my iphone and smashed it, so this idiot wont be able to do it
Emptied another slab of JD's can in the car fridge, set on 0, love my cans really cold. Mmmmmmmmmm
Whoomp there it is, Whoomp there it is
Upside down and inside out
I'm about to show all you folks
What's it's all about
Now it's time to get on the mic
And make this mother f****ing party hype, I'm talking it back to the old school
'Cause I'm an old fool who's so cool
If you want to get down
I'm gonna show you the way whoomp there it is, let me hear you say, whoop there it is.
think that if I had a fridge in my car it would be permanently stocked up.
Soldered some waterproof plugs onto my LED awning strip lights. Now if white is no good Un plug and plug in red LED'
Have an in line dimmer I can use on any led light. just getting everything ready for Cod opening, to test.
Plus checked all boost hoses etc for fitment and leaks,
Took the bloody winch out again back to Seaford and it still dont work.
So now its time for yet another mechanic.
He says i did what i had to do, PFT it worked on the floor.
But it dont work mate? I say.
He says it was like a new one done little work no noises.
I said yer lucky if it has done 2 hours work.
Cant win.
Is the cabling heavy duty enough for the winch to handle.
And to Mego turn the cap back around dude. lol
