I need input. I was planning on using a Warn 8274 winch on my new crawler. I knew from the get go that it was big. I did a quick mock up tonight and it seems like it will be an approach angle killer. I can maybe move it upwards some but becomes harder to brace since it mounts from there front.
I’m not totally stuck on using this winch, I would be fine putting it on my car trailer and putting the Badland 12k that’s on the trailer on this rig. I think that would save me at least 6” of front length and be a lot more compact/easy to mount.
The old Warn is just so cool but I feel like I am going to regret using it here.
Thoughts? Talk me on or off the ledge…
