[QUOTE="TreeClimber, post: 972202, member: 16101"] Just weld an extension to the engagement knob so that it can be twisted from above. I think I'd cut if flush, then weld a 3/8ths wobbly and an 24inch extension to it (or something like that), and a little lever on the top. That way, you can just pop the hood, and twist it from above the radiator (once re-installed) And I'd consider rotating that winch 180*, so that it mounts backwards, instead of forwards. By so doing, the rope will drop in the rear of the winch (instead of the front) and can be wrapped [I]under [/I]the winch when brought forward [I]so that it'll clear that lower radiator /grill support?? Might even get a better angle on the front axle if you want also??[/I] [/QUOTE]
