So. I've been slowly working to get my winch installed. This week I've been chipping away at the front roller assembly. I already had the bumper off to pound out a kink from an errant stump, so removing the handful of bolts from the old cab mount was pretty easy. A 30mm socket removed the bushing nut without much drama. Even the bushing does not look too bad. Win-win.
I installed the new roller assembly/cab mount, and other than needing to go back and run the cab lift a few times to get the upper bushing back in, no big deal. All in all it was less than an hour of working.
Now that it's back together. I have no idea how this is supposed to work. The cab lift cylinder is directly in line with he cable path from the newly installed roller assembly.
Did the winch trucks have a different lift mechanism? or different lift cylinder position/bracket? What am I missing here?
