    I have the X2O 10k and, while it's been a great winch thus far, finding a place to mount the solenoid box was a PITA. No room inside the Relentless bumper, and it needs to be accessible enough to plug in the remote. Wires are way too short to get into the engine compartment.

    Ended up just "temporarily" using zip ties (didn't even have black ones! :facepalm:) to hold it behind the grill. Looks terrible and it's still hard to get the remote plug in, but everything works. Ideally, longer heavy-gauge wires would need to be made and attached between the winch and box to put it in a better spot under the hood.

    In other words, best of luck!

    The 80's and early 90's had some....unique....ideas on vehicles.

    The spaceship part of the van makes me think of being in an aquarium.

    I love it. It reminds me of 21 window Vw or the old discovery that had the safari windows in the roof.
