Have a look at the bloke busting his pooper valve, built like a brick outhouse, good hernia material and slipped discs, leave all that to the young blokes that haven't already stuffed their backs, Regards Frank.Quote:

The only thing stopping me at the moment is time. I will need to remove the long range tank, but I am hoping that I can avoid removing the HCPU tub.
The plan/design is all drawn up (in my head)...just need some time.
I often travel alone - I currently have a Warn 9000 up front and front and rear diff locks, so adding a rear winch will just be the last piece of the puzzle.

That bloke seems to be 'mounting' an XD9000i Portable. It weighs 47 kg. That is more than two bags of cement!Quote:
