It's finally here!
 

For those of y'all that know me pretty well I've been talking about getting a winch ever since I first became a member. And y'all have had to put up with listening to me talk about it, and complain on how it's here, but it's still not mounted. Well no more, cause last night the mounting kit came and the winch got put on. I figured I would mention it because a few people on here have been askin about it. Well here is some pics taken just minutes ago: https://www.angelfire.com/ok3/ponysi...es/Mvc007s.jpg

Don't think that this means that I have to go get my truck stuck so that you can pull it out.

Is it hooked up to the battery yet??

I looked at that first pic and said: OK where's the winch??? Then I noticed that hook sticking out!!! Your winch is too Cool https://www.f150online.com/f150board/smile.gif I can "see" why you wanted it. It doesn't take away from the great looks of your truck https://www.f150online.com/f150board/wink.gif Now about Pony's question....does it WORK!!???

Nice. Same with TIna, I didnt see it at first in the 1st pic. Looks nice. How much weight can it handle?

Thanks, no it's not hooked up yet. Gonna do that Monday, gonna be some work. I had to hook it to a car battery to reel it in, and plus to make sure that it worked, and it did.
Fast, the winch is 8000lb.

There have been times when I wish I had one.
Great install!!

I told ya 54regcab not to take your truck into that swamp! https://www.f150online.com/f150board/wink.gif

Mudder: I like it! You might consider getting a heavier Alternator, I had a friend who recommended that to a friend in a Chevy...

I wonder if it can pull the front door off of a duplex for easier evictions????


Kinda makes me want a 4x4 so I can get tha cool stuff.

Seacrow,
I'm sure it could pull doors off for ya, if not then that's one hell of a door.

If ya got a 4x4 then it seems like a winch is a must, plus they look cool.

Mudder,

I must agree they look cool, but then why get one that cant be seen that good? https://www.f150online.com/f150board/smile.gif

Well, for one thing it's there if I need it, which I know if it ever starts to rain here again I will. But when I trim the rubber out of the air dam you will be able to see it better. But one good thing that comes out of it being hidden is that weather can't affect it, and people can't mess with it. Bottom line, I've always wanted a winch, now I got it, now I can make a buck or two pullin Chevies and Dodges out of the mud.

oops, double post. Wish we could still edit them.
