Well i had my first day off in about a month. So after mowing the jungle I call a yard I got the last 3 brackets made for the bumper.
Attachment 323131

I also got my winch bolted up to the bumper and the D shackle mounts drilled out so my shackles fit.
Attachment 323132

So tomorrow ill go to true value and pick up a $hit ton of grade 8 bolts and mount the beast.
I really dont like the solenoid box mounted to the winch like that but for now that well work.
also thinking about making a hoop for it to mount my mini light bar?

well since my wifes XJ's motor blew up. I stole the electric fan off of it and installed it today in place of my mechanical fan.

Attachment 321707

and wired it so that both fans come on when the key is on with some speeker wire. For now just to c how it works out and if it works as good as everyone says then ill go buy two adjustable fan relays and wire them in right.
