Oh hell yeah! I am definitely digging this vibe. Winch sits in there perfectly. I'm gonna run with it. Then afterwards I'm making me a mud donut video like Super Don!! Booyah baby!!

Does it need to be narrowed? Looks like it could possibly get hung on something. Looks like it may stick out from rops a beaver hair. I got room to come in and winch still fit. But was hoping narrowing wasn't necessary. Thoughts? If there's any doubt, NOW is the time to narrow it. Guess that kinda answers my question huh? (Yes I'm rambling to myself get over it). Crap! I'm lazy today so wasn't really wanting to do this. But I don't like half arse work either.

Okay more personal ramblings to consider. When Derek broke his stuff last time one idea that popped into my head was running his winch cable over top of rear rops of another vehicle and piggybacking his arse out of there. What if there was a quick disconnect A-frame mounted to somebody's rear bumper. And that somebody had a rear mounted winch? Think that would get a disabled vehicle (like a 700 for example) out of the woods?

The sides of that are going to weight 200 pounds on a wet weekend but actually doesn't look as bad as I had envisioned. Love the winch

You mean from mud buildup? What if a feller filled everything in with some 18ga sheet metal? Wouldn't be much more weight and would keep mud out

Fill it with spray foam and then come back and finish it out with some kind of filler and paint. ??

I agree that it needs to be a little bit more narrow. I would narrow it up a few inches if you can.

It's turning out to look pretty good so far.

I was thinking about an off road tow dolly would be pretty cool.
