In cab winch control
« on: May 08, 2010, 10:31:18 AM »
I installed this a few years ago. It's easy to install, it comes with everything needed.
Here is the link where I purchased mine. The price of $30.00 has not changed since I purchased mine years ago.

This is where I put the switch.


The few times I have used my winch this has been real handy! Worth the money :thumbsup:

Using tools you have not used in a while is like shaking hands with old friends. :nod:

Looks familiar ;)  Only complaint I had about it was the "house wire" that they sent it wired with.  I swapped out most of their wire for fine strand automotive wire.

I made my own 2 switches, piece of aluminum for a backing plate, have been very happy with it. Use the remote only when pulling rocks or logs, for pulling my self out of a jam the switches work like a charm

I did the in cab controls a while back. I used a chunk 3 wire extension cord. Worked nice because all the wired are nicely sealed together in thier own insulation.
