I posted the below to an older thread but it seemed not to refresh.....sooooo
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OK.....Mama got the winch and is TOTALLY HAPPY.....NOW the install........A couple of questions for guys that have installed a WARN 3000 lb Kubota kit..........
1. On the Warn install instructions it talks about a "bottom tie bolt". To remove it and save it for "winch service".........The Kubota instructions say NOTHING......The only thing I see is about a 3/16 bolt that goes from the motor side to the clutch side but gives clearance for the rope by perhaps 3/8"..........Any thoughts?
2. To access the clutch disengage/engage knob on the end does one try to snake your hand through the grill.....TOTALLY HARD........or do you remove or pull the rubber flaps under the hood and above the winch aside to reach down in there?
3. Four bolts with a 13mm head to actually hold the winch to the frame?.........THAT'S ALL??????........I know they are working in the "shear" plane but for 3000lb it doesnt seem much??????
That's all I got done today with the actual wiring of the electrics tomorrow or so.....That part seems pretty straight forward......Where is your permanent switch mounted????????
More later......God bless......Dennis
