Got two 250 LB bales?

It's only off one or two degrees.......It's no big deal.....

What difference does it make at this point?

I could go on......

Ha, no the bails do not change the angle at all. Its about 15 degrees and it looks pretty bad. I actually use that basket on the front to carry stuff fairly often and it looks terrible. Appearances mean something!

Yeah, I was being sarcastic.

I would be pissed if mine looked like that.

I welded one on the bottom of my winch plate in the front and I would be upset if it wasn't level.
 
Grabbed some hay for the goats. What trash hay! Wont be going to that feed store again.

And wth is with the 4X4 Labs front receiver pointing down like this?

Looks very good, but not sure if Id run cable over that fairlead, it looks like its for synthetic rope not cable?
 
Put the tire rack on, doing a quick weekend camping trip this weekend...

True, but they do make fairleads like that for either syn or cable. (while no interchangeable, depends on what it is)
 
some iron and steel hawse fairleads are fine with cable. Looks super clean to me :D
 
So long as the fairlead isn't aluminum, it should be fine.
 
Left Olympic National Park and headed east towards Glacier NP.

Im surprised not the norm for Labs. It work drive crazy to the point of modding the basket but then again you only see when loading:grinpimp:

Yeah, fairlead is cast iron made for cable.
Got this winch for bargain as it was last one and want a rope at some point, so made installation with gliding type fairlead, so just to have swap fairlead and cable.
This way i could made installation more minimalistic to outside.
 
Trying to FINALLY get OBA installed on my own damn truck! I have a SuperCharger so the York is out. So went Viair and repositioned it on my rear shelf with a 2.5 gallon tank and just plumbed them together. I then switched the wiring on a customer's compressor for an OBW project. I liked how it came out so I did the same for myself. All I need to do is run the tubing, regulator and wiring and I'm good to go.

Nice, I didn't realize a VIAIR compressor would fit behind the tank like that. Maybe I can avoid drilling any more holes in my frame after all. I'm in the middle of a very similar install, VIAIR X'treme duty kit (utilizing your RATS, nice fit BTW) but I keep finding myself in need of a tool, drill bit, or fitting that the local shops don't ever seem to have in stock. I'm making progress a tiny bit at a time.

I have the holes already in the mount but not in the configuration you see there. So yeah, had to drill a few holes in my mount but that was easy.
