I refurbished my old M8000. I broke the cable on the last trip out and the winch was just looking rough. Meaders at Clemson 4 Wheel Center got me all the right parts needed and in just a couple of days. I used Martin Seynour cast block paint fron Napa and I think the color looks close. Water had gotten in the winch from a few bad seals and it had begun to rust. It looks like I caught it before any damage could be done though. Damn it was a messy job.
:Yea everything worked great. It was real nice to bring my Jeep back from a wheeling trip completely unharmed. It's been a long time. He built an upper link mount on my front diff to replace the damaged truss, installed AA cable shifters for the 241, replaced a front yoke and driveshaft and got my steering a little more dialed in. The driveshaft took a little longer than expected so I didn't pick my Jeep up until on the way to Windrock. When I got to his shop, he welded a broken shock back together for me and helped me install all my tires and wheels and mounted a spare. I think the work is top notch and the bill really was reasonable. I have been meaning to take a few pics but can't seem to find time for much of anything other than changing diapers and feeding babies. I did find time to warsh the ever living **** out of my Jeep though, knowdat! Chris told me that I really need a body lift to protect that front end from failure again. I just don't know if I can do it. I may need to massage the tub or something.
