Pretty old looking winch. At least it was a quick fizz. Did the sound come from the switch or the winch itself?

The fizz was that quick it was hard to pin point I'm guessing it was one of the relays fried itself or shorted. Hoping that because its a warn I might be able to get replacement relays because the winch itself though its old is pretty bullet proofOriginally Posted by soundfx

found this in my search for answers might be handy to anyone else with an old winch.

G'day Casey,
ARB have replacement solenoids for $40.00 each.
I have attached the Parts list and exploded views of the winch. (Its not a good scan sorry)
Cheers,
Rob

Just about to jump into my next Patrol. A 2001 GU II TB45E .
WARNING!: Do not ever use a towball as a recovery point. They are not rated and can become a deadly projectile during a recovery if they snap off, and they have done so with tragic results in the past.

After a quick nut and bolt check under the truck today found that the nut had fallen off one of my swaybar link pins so I've removed it till I can get another one of the guys at suspension stuff. Surprised I didn't notice it handling like a pig I guess I have HD springs its not to ba or maybe now iv taken it out it will be worse..... Oh well

Hahaha these are the rears so now I'm running no swaybars at all after taking it for a whip around thisarvo you can notice it tends to roll over a lot more when cornering but I think if I can get another I will put it back in just because its my tow car as well I don't want it handling like the titanic haha
How do you find the ride with the heavy duty springs? What about the flex? I'm running the same springs by the looks of it, and I do find the ride a little harsh, then again mine is pretty light on at the moment.
Loaded up its ohk. I have a speedway trailer I plan to tow so I went for the HD as I didn't want it to sag out or have to put airbags in there. I find with a bit of weight it's more comfortable but still flexes fine with an empty car.
