Thanks to all who helped with suggestions on lifting my winch to the bumper. I ended up making a gantry with two step ladders, a crossbeam, and a manual chain hoist. When I bought the winch on Facebook Marketplace (probably a 1974 from the stamping), the seller said he got a new remote control socket because the original was damaged. However he never wired it up. I have a manual for the winch from the internet, but the schematics are difficult for me to interpret and the illustrations are vague. So I am turning to the Mud community for your expertise. I understand the negative cable from the battery is attached to the underside of the motor housing. I am presuming by the wear on the nut that the positive lead from the battery attaches at the upper left solenoid lug at arrow in picture. There are 3 leads coming out of the remote control socket. The black one and the green one have small eyelets and I presume they connect to the smaller lugs where those color wires exist. The white wire has a larger eyelet. Am I correct in assuming it attaches to the same lug that the positive battery cable attaches to? Thanks for your help. Ted
