I was winching out of the swamp the other day and my winch stopped working.....just stopped
I checked the connections and all was well.
It wouldent be so bad but in order to get to the trails from here you NEED a winch.
It might be the little circuit breaker (i dont no)but can that be gotten from a Auto parts store?
Any other suggestions

I'm with Dazed, the relay will not last more that a few months (my experience, junked 2 relays) so I am direct.

Hey DUSE,

How do you like the progressive front springs? My tires buzz too much on any serious bump!

I still havent had time to ditch the breaker,but I will.
With the progressive front springs I still buzz the 26's, but not as much as stock.It also makes for one hell of a stiff ride because I thread them to the top.I'm sure with the 27's you'll still be buzzing away.How much topend did you lose with the 27's?I lost 8-10mph.I 'll get the needle to the "S" on POLARIS with stock tires,with the589s I get to 53-55mph
