Re: H3 winch mounts for sale
I have used this one a few times on some long hauls. Would this show anything you have not already figured out. I got mine before you made yours. I wanted at first to just have the mount. This is one of those from Teka Toys but Im not sure who made it. The brush guard and plate were welded together. I checked those backing plates after reading this thread.

What??? 1600 lb pull & the bumper bent? Doesn't sound right....mine has handled some extreme pulls with no problems, until I really put a full load on it at a low angle.
|
Who said the bumper bent Cris?
I didn't say that, did I???????????
Nothing was bent, I stopped the pull before damage was done. I noted what was going on... Nothing more, nothing less.
This is what I said, note that I have not REVISED what I am sharing...

Cris I had a chance to use the winch deck today, looks good, no doubt.
But as you mentioned, there is a problem with the pull. I thought the front end of my rig was going to pull off.
My brush guard tweaked down towards the winch deck, and the front of my rig was bent. I stopped the pull because my whole front end was looking bad.
Under a load of 1600lbs I didn't expect it to act like this.

I didn't, so I shared with you what was going on with the winch deck. I paid for it, and used it, and am giving you feedback on its use in the field.

Re: H3 winch mounts for sale
OK man, so you're saying it stressed out some while pulling, but you stopped before it bent? That's normal, but you said "and the front of my rig was bent" so I thought it did bend out on you.
Still, I've got those frame plates in the works & I'd be happy to send you a pair to weld on, if you want 'em. Along with the top supports I'm fabbing up for the grill cage, that should hold the pivot...will send those too, if you like.
Work-in-progress, it seems...

Re: H3 winch mounts for sale
Got your email, had a look at it, yup that's where I suspect the problem is too... Why did they make those brackets so thin? Engineers...
Nope, I am happy with the deck and am making the gussetts myself to support the front end brackets...
It should be good to go when I get time to weld the gussetts on.
