It took 2 days, and lots of cursing, but I finally got my brakes fixed, and my winch mounted. (yay!) I have a couple other issues I need to take care of first, but I should be trail worthy by next weekend!
Just had to share ;D
Also, thanks Ray!

A champion one, did I read that you broke yours? Even so, I'm not worried, I likely wont use it half as much as you lol.
I can't really use it yet, because I still have to fix my alternator issues again as well, but I'm a little under the weather today so that'll have to wait. Everyting will be a go for ellershouse on sunday though.

Did the winch plte bolt up to the YJ frame nicely, or did you have to drill new holes too?

Nothing bolted properly. I had to elongate the plate mounting holes substantially, grind openings for my tow hooks, and grind down the bolts mounting the fairlead to the plate for the winch to fit. Also had to drill some holes into my front bumper, and then mount the bumper and winch to the winch plate, before putting the whole assembly on the front.
Just time consuming really. Not overly difficult.
