Default young versions version

went to Ryde's today found a pair of rocker arms, tried to make one. Great Idea, thanks. Man, someone should write a book about the many uses for TLT spare parts."101 uses for your TLT crap"





i found this picture after i glued it together, so i copied the wiring.The lever is just there so i could see what it would look like, i'll probably redo it. i kinda like the rounded top better, although it looks nothing like a Warn.

The bearing mod is a great addition. Looks fairly easy to do and still utilizes all those unused parts as well. Good stuff.

Default scale winch line

if you go to a fishing store you can buy leader line that is steal braided line with a clear plastic coat over it and it is vary flexible and doesn't have memory to it.
