You could buy a nice winch for what you would spend on just fasteners to build a rig using those.

SS vs Gr8, does it matter in this application?
I made a $800 mistake last Nov, 7th. Did not realize the "CR" at the end of the part number was "Corrosion resistant" (or SS). Needed carbon steel bearings. The previous (carbon set) lasted 8yrs, the CR lasted until last week.

Winch bolts are not 12mm x 1.75 thread pitch x 90mm long. I specifically stated I was messing with unit bearing bolts and the price of cuteness was more than I could bear. I had to settle for adorable instead.
Ok. I see now. was not sure if you were trying to fit those bolts up to something else. Do the cute SS bolts have the same or acceptable load?
I bought one today for $67. I believe the sale is for one more day..
Just bought for $67. I hope you are getting a good commission, its the least amount of research I think I have ever done!

My tracking is crazy. My jumper box was with in 20 miles of my house. Now it is over 1300 miles away.
I've noticed USPS tracking is often too wonky to understand. At least yours says the cities it is passing through, my current enroute package on its way to Turkey only ever says it's on its way to its "next destination".

Using MrBlaine as kind of a life coach, I lightened up my recovery gear and now have it all together in a nice and light package
Those ATC bags are nice. Do yourself a favor and pick up a new winch remote. The one you have with the sideways switch will leave you stranded one day. Not one of Warns best designs.
I have way too many ATC bags!!
The remote, so my version is no beuno? I have never used it. I have a dash control but still carry it. What am I looking for in the remote?
Is this the improved version:

If you are running a dash control it is probably less of an issue. Warn 83665 is my preference. https://www.warn.com/winch-remote-controller-12ft-83665 Much better build quality and IMO more intuitive to operate.
