Winched up!

Many thanks to 10forcash for fitting my new Warn winch today. I also had a 2nd battery fitted. The car is looking like the DB's! 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten

Having that sticking out the front of the car will put a dent or two into the cars that park a bit too close then ..

Good point Steve! ~The winch is not light but seeing as I'm a little underweight this compensates for the weight of the winch! 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten

At least with the airsuspension having a winch on the front of an RRS doesn't mean extra wear on the front suspension like a Defender or older Disco has, along with extra wear on the steering as well. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

2006 Range Rover Sport 4.4 V8 HSE Cairns Blue

VA...would you mind also posting pictures of the 2nd battery and install. What's running off the 2nd battery, and is it on a switch, or constantly also being charged?

thanks. PJPR

The 2nd battery runs alongside the original battery. I opted for this rather than the ability to switch. Will post pics when I can. 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten
