I have a feeling these winches will get used, these trucks are headed to a small island out in the ocean. not sure the exact use they will have but there will be plenty of uses i'm sure.

Info on where they are going in the link below.

Adding in a picture of my new toy. It won't see much use, mostly just clean up work. As handy as they are, I like to keep the plow off this truck as much as I can...does that seem counterintuitive? Attachment 137018

Seems like keeping the plow off of the truck as much as possible would reduce the wear on the front suspension and other components. Nice truck by the way.

With that minute mount system Fisher has it's really easy to hook up when needed. I used to take the plow off my truck after every storm, literally less than 2 minutes to hook or unhook.

My next plow truck will have a fisher on it again.

That's my logic, plus I'm not in the snow removal business, it's just cleanup on the side so no heavy use anyway. Thanks, truck has come a long way since I bought it and I love the way it's setup.

Exactly! It's so simple you can't go wrong.

the island is 5 miles by 3 miles, why would you even need 2 trucks?

What size lift do you have on it to clear the 37s?
