    Im looking to put a winch and plate bumper on in the near future and was hoping to see some great installs. Things like battery connections and switch gear and other things to consider when doing this.I like the arb and the warn9.5xd and was wondering if anyone is running this setup. Id live to see them so heres a place to show it off!

    I've got an ARB with an XD9000 in it- it looks like an ARB with a roller fairlead and winch hook (pretty boring). Currently the control box is sitting on the top along with two Hella Ralley 4000 compacts but whenever I get around to getting longer wires for the control box I'm going to put it under the hood, remove the Hellas and put the 20" LED bar on the front. I'm headed out of the country this week so it won't get done until I get back.

    I'm not sure if the 9.5xd will fit with that heat sink on the motor; double check your measurements before you order it. Although a bit heavier, I run the wire rope for ease of maintenance and durability.

    The skid plate isn't on in this picture and I've since added one of the black Daystar winch isolators.

    That's a beauty set up. The light bar should look great to. The 9000 should be all the winch these trucks need.
