Winch Plate for a TJ Going to fab up a front winch plate...any sugguestions as to how thick..
I'm thinking 5 mm or is that overkill and just go 3mm with some reinforcing???? Cheers |
5mm would not be overkill - IMHO it would be the minimum, and personally I'd probably opt for 8mm for the mount plate itself....I like a bit of overkill ;)
|
:lol:
|
I was thinking that mine is closer to 8mm and mine is a Jeep one.
|
Ive made a 8mm it works well, real well im thinking of making a another out of 5mm or 6mm cause Mark 1. is f**king heavy :|
|
any picks of your handywork ?????
leaning towards thicker now due to the fact it's a M8274-50 such big load on the front of the plate not bottom... http://www.warn.com/truck/winches/sr...74-50_Line.gif |
One thing in your favour with the highmount - when under load it's pressing AGAINST the mount - not trying to rip itself off ;)
If that don't make sense I need sleep :oops: |
