So far I’ve just done the rope stretch in the instructions and then pulled a good sized dead tree out of my yard. Seems to work great but admittedly I have no prior experience with winches.
Nice; Gotta love that bumper (IMO!)
It was every bit as heavy and well built as I could have hoped for even if it cost a good bit more.
Again I am no winch expert and have little experience but this particular winch is manufactured to match that bumper!
im no expert - first winch (and Jeep for that matter!)
I read that you wanted 1.5 or so your vehicle GVW for your winch and gladiator is 5,800 to 6,250 lbs. I felt I was going more to the safe side andI waited for a good sale from Quadratech so I paid the same for the Stealth as the equivalent...
Thank you! It probably took my friend an me a little over an hour. However, that was me cheating. He has a lift and we lifted it up to level to work on- some of the bolts can be tough to get at but up in the air it was rather easy. That also allowed us to run the wires up from below more easily...
I installed it on the Quadratech QRC bumper that it is made to mate to - fit beautifully as I expected/hoped. I didn't add any relay or switch or anything, but even running the cables wasn't too tough.
Mine was a custom order received mid April 2021 and I have the right rear leak. Dealer found it at my service @7700 miles. Supposedly ordered the axle but I have to call them again soon. Shop manager said he had seen it before so he checked... now I see how common this seems to be.
How funny (to me) - the Z clips were what I was cursing as I was trying to get em in... everything else felt a breeze to me! Glad it worked out for ya.
I've only had it quite briefly but put mine through a handheld carwash last night (thinking from the angles and such I'd be sure to get a few drops inside) and the interior was bone dry. It does take a moment to spray the soap out of the cloth - and the angles I had to hit to get the soap out of...
I want to say I'll just hit the button to disable every time (Not a fan) but I'm seriously considering that module. I am coming from a 1998 Chevrolet that I had for 19 years so this stuff is pretty foreign to me!
Can you tell us anything more? What kind of key - its own?
I see three doors on it but only the main two open... Install just bolt in replacement I hope..?
Hello all; another new to the site guy here. Ordered mine just like I wanted it and had to have Snazzberry when I saw it. It does look very different even just from different angles with light and such. Got to put my rails/steps and tonneau on soon. I love the sunrider for hardtop! I don’t know...
