    Yeah - that's the other motivating factor. I will get that winch mounted some day. ;)

    To apply it you first have to hold the brakes with your foot set the handle and then release it, thats where most of the comedy happens you take your foot off the brake before the valve closes.

    Rondog: not the post I was thinking of, but, yup. That's the ticket. Shoulda just asked Duke about twenty minutes ago, eh?

    Computer's on dial-up. Personally, I have no excuse. Sorta.

    Operate the winch from the driver's seat? So did my three year old daughter!! Wish I had realized that before I backed up about twenty feet, then drove away. A real short way!! Bent the dickens outta my fairlead when it tightened up!

    JEEP wasn't the only thing that stopped. Pucker muscle got a hernia, too.
