We got a good day's work in yesteray.
I liked the PO's idea of using square tubing (1" receiver tube) to mount the winch and make it removable until I figured out that my radiator would not fit between the frame rails without cutting most of the tubing out. Now I know why he had 3" of body lift :banghead:
Check out the fat welds he had holding the tube on :rubeyes: (and the bottom was just as bad) - I'd hate to see what size rod he used and give him props for not burning the frame in half in the process. About 10 cut-off wheels, a saw-zall blade and a lot of hammering both sides were off.
