Mount: ARB winch bumper
Winch: Mile Marker
Fairlead: Roller
Line: stock cable
Comments: my only complaint is the stock cables to the control box were not long enough to remote it for a winch bumper. Luckily, I have a black belt in the 12V arts.

And how many times have I fallen off my chair? Now granted the first year of that 2 years was collecting parts,this past year has been,well it's been hectic and there was set backs that I have no control over and not worth me getting upset about.It will happen but some private issues need to be resolved first in which I have no control over so I just got to go with the flow.The good part is USAFCOP can catch up with his parts list so we can get the 2 prototypes built one right after the other which will help get the SFA kit out faster(as soon as we beat the snot out of them,R&D is so fun 8) ).

Now back on topic.............
