after the snorkel project
over the first diff.lock project (no pics)
Here is the first winch building. Stock bumper+E9000 MileMarker.
The stock bumper stayed up. I know it's not a hard offroad piece, but it's strong (unfortunately a volvo s40 knows
![Angel Angel](https://mississippi-mud.com/images/Smilies/angel.gif)
) and it's not ponderous. I have already 300kg-661lbs extra weight.
And just a rem:
here officially every offroad accessory is illegal. I don't know exactly the rules in US, but here if the police has bad day, you get penalty because the extra lights, big -ET rims, custom bumpers, roofrack, ...anything.
And If your truck is on the reliability trial (in every 2 year) it's a nightmare to all non-stock rig. Of course everbody has answer the problem .....$$

The biggest problem is the intercooler. It hasn't got place near the winc. I did not want to put it in front of the other coolers. It will be a top mounted IC. It's not new under sun. (under the hood

Actualities:
We have to rebuild the CB aerial, the Hella lights, and 2 tow points. And of course the IC problem. Next week.
