  6. ive got a goodwinch on the front of my pickup, try this company for a winch mounting kit. they were mega helpfull when i got mine, we modded the existing bumper and it fitted in well, and looks tidy Replacement bumpers & winch-fitting kits: Landrover Discover, Isuzu, Nissan Navara, Ford Ranger etc.
  7. Keep it simple, like axe throwing or tug of war Personally something that takes alot of messing around/organising/setting up would put me off. I go to shows to catch up with mates, get pissed an talk rubbish with my friends. I'm no Scrooge and am happy to get involved but it needs to be something that's quick and easy (I must have had at least 5 go on the axe throwing )

  15. if your using a ropeguide the shackle for retrieval isnt needed. the working end will go through the biner then through the ropeguide, pull the ropeguide out then the whole lot gets stuck in the 2nd biner of the redirect and pulls out did that make sense?
  16. This threads going nowhere except down the same old route, and will be closed shortly
