spence you could do with loosing abit off the top of the mount plate so that you can see some of the drum from a distance
makes a hell of a difference to the 8274 user as its a pitfall of not seeing enough of the drum because of how the bumpers are
looks good tho, interested to see how tight the winch is into the grill, and to how high the bumper its on the chassis for angles

The last 2 points of dans are what I am looking for also, not bothered about seeing the drum too much, but I am interested why Dan is???? Is it just to see how much line is on there? if so when I go on my mates boat we just painted the achour chain every 5 meters as a guide to how much we had let out.

I think Dan like to see it's laying up properly and not all ghoing on one end, that there are no kinks and no debris. I'm told that one of the most common failure points of winch cable is when the cable ramps up for the second layer as it's kinked quite sharply over the end of the first. I don't know how tue that is, but I like to keep an eye on my Bowrope too

er why? you will be winching from the cab where you cant see anyway, or from a button on the front (possibly above the grill) where you can see the crum perfect?
one wouldnt be winching from a distance??
