Installing the winch

Installing the winch - 09/16/16 11:24 PM

I hurt all over. Been putting off installing the winch on the new Honda Rancher, but got on it this afternoon. Warn has good instructions, but it still came down to me doing all the work. Not easy, and low to the ground. I feel like the Hunchback of Limestone County. Got a Bloody Mary now, and feel better, though still slightly bleeding from several places. If it sounds like I'm whining...yes, I am.

I feel your pain. I can get down but can't get back up.

Lots of tight spaces on those rascals. I always wait till the end to tie the hot wire into the key switch. That little splice connector is a huge time saver.

I found a guy who put mine on for fifty bucks. Money well spent.

As bad as the installation was, I put the D___ thing on backwards. Cannot believe I did that. I'll get it right tomorrow, and I'll shed more blood and hit my knuckles and cuss like a sailor. Dang! Backwards. How in the ________...

I'd have paid fifty...wish I had....
