My first idea of a portable whinch kit was maybe a good idea, but it did not hold up for the treatment. It started to bend the constructions. ![]() Why I wanted it portable is because the swedish "MOT" do not alow that kind of equipment. Therefor I need to remove it before I take the Jeep there. But if I registrate my Jeep as a light truck instead of a family car, there will be no problem whith a whinch in the front. All I have to doo is to remove the rear seat and seatbelt. That will also reduse the road tax to about 50%... So... This is what´s going on right now: http://jeepetorp.blogg.se/2009/septembe ... schen.html ![]() Not beautiful, but sturdy as a rock... It does not move or twist at all. ![]() Some cosmetic remains to doo. ![]() (Please, if I spell something wrong, let me know. I might learn something...) Off topic: A family car whith gasolin enginge costs about 2500 SEK/year in road tax, whith a diesel engine in the same vehicle the tax is about 10 000 SEK/year. If that diesel car is registrated to a light truck (Whithout the rear seat) the road tax is about 3000 SEK/year. 1 dollar is allmost 7 SEK. |

Looks good. Just a few cosmetic touches and it's good to go. |

Nice lookin winch mount! You might want to cover the opening at the end of the tubing so it dosen't start to rust. Spell check, its 'registered' not 'registrated'. ![]() Just helpin out. |

Nicer solution to a sticky problem. You can buy (in Australia) internal knock-in caps in polypropylene. If you can't get them easily, (I am guessing, but it looks like this is about 40x40 RHS) I have some in the shed I wud be pleased to mail to you with my best wishes. P.M. me if you are interested.
