Are you running a lift with those? Stock rims? Any rubbing?

I can’t speak fully to temperature concerns. It was about 85 at my house and in the 70’s at Truckee. As you know, it’s not uncommon for it to be 20 degrees warmer here in the summer. However, temperatures weren’t an issue at all on my trip, but who knows. 20 degrees can make a lot of difference.

I have a Diesel Rubicon and live near Sacramento. A few weeks ago I pulled a car hauler and Wrangler TJ to Reno and back with no problems going 65. The TJ is around 4000# and the trailer was a U-Haul car hauler, which supposedly weighs 2500#. There wasn’t much else in the bed of the truck and I...

My winch is set up as you describe with the AUX Switch set to momentary on/off connected to the contactor. I use one switch for in and one switch for out. However, I also wired in the plug for my wired controller under the hood next to the contactor, which is also under the hood. This gives me...

Stock bumper, Warn Winch Plate, and a TMR 8274 Mount cut and welded to the Warn Plate. Did require cuttting the stock bumper, but no spacers required.

Also a good idea. Thanks.

That’s a really good point about unintentional activation of the switches. No one else really drives my truck, but I do have small kids who like to push buttons. Too bad there is no way to totally deactivate the switches in the menu on the truck so I could do it that way, rather than installing...

I’m using the aux switches to operate the contactor so they just need the amperage to operate the solenoid in the contactor. The winch power is coming from the battery. The aux switches allow you to choose whether they are momentary or continuous and whether they are active with the ignition on...

I agree, being able to operate the winch from outside the cab is essential under many circumstances to include just managing the line. However, the reason I would wire the winch for in cabin control is for when I may want to be able to steer and control the truck while operating the winch on a...

For those more versed in wiring winches, I have a question. I’ve installed a Warn 8274 and am relocating the contactor under the hood to maximize airflow into the grill. With the contactor under the hood I’m not planning to use a separate solenoid to cut off power to the winch. However, I’m...
