If it makes you feel any better, we put a warn in before they had the JL fix. We now have To take it all apart again to make the free spool work with the fix.Installed my winch today. I learned a few things.
1. Rusty's winch plate does not come with instructions.
2. Smittybilt winches have worthless instructions.
2a. Winches are freakin HEAVY!
3. To install a Factor 55 Flatlink, you have to cut off the old hook.
Things I would have loved to know beforehand. Maybe tomorrow I'll have the energy to put the bumper back on

For many years I took sunsets for granted , then something changed and I try to get in as many as I can
Because you are a dog person, I feel safe that you won’t think I’m minimizing, but rather, coming part way to understanding...I have a memorial tattoo for my mother on my ankle.
This is me, but Psycho Dad voice, and bring whiskey.![]()

Haha it’s all good! Sometimes I catch myself cause my other two cars were girls. Felt like my Wrangler needed a guy name probably because I grew up in the Boy Scouts and I’m just used to going camping with the boys.I thought that as soon as posted it !
Like oh shit !

. I get it because I had my beloved Chuck. He was my baby. I still mourn him, which sounds silly but, he was my boy. I had him since birth. I saved him when he was born blue, cold, and not breathing 4 hours after the others. I gave him mouth-to-mouth and rubbed him until he started moving. It took three days for him to recover. So, I get it Ahahaha!This is me, but Psycho Dad voice, and bring whiskey.
I truly appreciate parents like you who teach their children to be open-minded. We are so much further ahead than I ever dreamed possible in my lifetime because of those actions![]()
