Re: Ironman winch

Thanks for the tips, I was aware of the spooling out. This winch has a manual release for the over-run brake for spooling out cable but with the steel it is a real pain as it tends to "spring" loose turns around the drum so basically you have to let it all out and then wind it back in taking care to ...

Who needs a logging truck?

Ute.jpgJust having a bit of fun on my way home from a job and sorting some of next year's firewood on the way! Loaded up so 50mm of suspension travel left but would have liked a few more logs! Steering was super power on the way home!

Re: Dmax warning tone

Thanks for the replies. Geeves, my driving is around our block, not in town. Yes, unplugging wire could interfere with airbags and also trigger a fault warning, checked that option out already. Izuzurob's suggestion sounds best so far but will need 2 as it also triggers for the passenger! Just wish ...
