winch plate

#1 Post by unimogfever » Sat Jun 09, 2012 4:20 pm

made myself a winch plate, sort of. looked around didn't find anything I like, so made one from scratch. light with a good approaching angle and strong enough to hold my brand new Ramsey 8500. need to test it someday.

Congrats, nice clean job, interesting fair-lead.
Where do you plan on anchoring the standing end when using a pulley. Perhaps you've got jate rings that I can't see in the photos. Just curious.

thanks, yes, I have jate rings. I remove them to put on a steering guard. there are two anchor points on the guard.
