Yep,wait till you see my completed SFA swap :lol:

Aww come on now....You've been saying that for two years now!! Get on w/ it already!! I have already fallen off the edge of my seat twice and getting tired of holding my breath! :wink:

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

).

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

Yeah, catching up, but now slowing back down... Volvo wants attention now bunch of issues, all at once, and only 2 covered under my "warranty" :evil:

and the car was egged by some punks in my own driveway last night!!! Got the Subaru too, but that is an improvement :roll:

...when it rains it pours

Winch: Mile marker M8000

I have a Mile Marker PE 8000 and I recently received their new MiFi upgrade from the head R&D guy there.

I have not hooked the MiFi up yet, but it's a solenoid-free control system with real time diagnostic. He gave it to me under the understanding that I would give him feedback from the field.

You had better start getting stuck then. I know a great place for you here in Colorado when you get here. Ask Pete and Jim (Broncsrule is back in Colorado) about it. HEHEHEHE!!!!!

Mount: ARB
Winch: Warn M8000
Fairlead: Stock Roller
Line: 85' 3/8 Amsteel Blue
Comments: GREAT set-up. I keep a bag of goodies, d shackles, snatch blocks and gloves and tree strap and...., in the back for emergency uses. Used the winch during hurrican Ike to pull trees out of the road. One little thing I did different is rather than hook it up straight to the Yellow top, I soldered in a WARN 50 amp plug. The one like the ones tow trucks use and the SC Rock Crawler Bumpers put on their bumpers. I can disconect the winch and plug a set of jumper cables in and either give or get a jump.
