Harbor Freight Badland 12k winch and TJM T13 bumper

[Bloomer]

Posted this in the winching forum, but since the T13 is 100 series specific, thought I'd try here too.

Anyone using the Badland 12k winch in a T13 bumper? Any fitment issues or modifications required for install?

Thanks.

I assume you received no info on this. I have a badlands 12k winch and am looking to do the hidden mount for the 100 series.

you really want to put your trust in a harbor freight winch ? Go Warn and be safe!

I've heard some mixed reviews on the HF winches, but mostly positive. Plan to eventually (and before I finally install it) seal it up properly and swap out the cable for synthetic line. There's a good write up on the forum for winches on how to take them apart and better waterproof.

Mile Marker is also a decent brand and won't bust the piggy. Had one on my last expo rig.
