    Yep! Maybe not wiring it in because I'll be limited on time
    No, I have no need for a front locker. Just more money and an easier way to break CVs.

    Usually its pretty easy to wire, they color code the wires from the solenoid to the winch and then just a positive and negative to the battery

    I'm just worried about having to relocate the solenoid. If I don't have to, it'll be easy. Otherwise I'll have to get some 2 gauge wire and relocate it under the hood or something.

    That'll work! We'll also need a special cutter and crimper, so we can work something out with that as well. Wouldn't be bad tools to have if we ever want to wire in a second battery or something.

    @fatfurious2 @Lots2Learn58 You guys gonna get your license and HAM radio before the mobtown event? Please say yes so we can actually talk. I'm so over the CB.

    I took a practice test just now. Got 2/5 questions right, but then I quit. I have a headache and not in the right mood for taking a test without studying

    Please do. It'll make our lives so much easier! Plus more cool gear to buy.
    From what I understand, not too hard. Just study a bit, show up and test.

    Snow is awesome for the first 3-4 weeks... then it can go away, and take the cold with it!

    Ok now I need one setup like this for all my working tools...

    Do it! I highly recommend investing in some slides though. You can get some 500 lb heavy duty slides for around $180, and are worth it. My drawer is only half full and it's already a bear to open.
