What Brown did for me today...
New toys...
Any of you guys have any advice for mounting the remote solenoid? It should be on the inside of that bumper I think...

Yea, I just don't understand why their wait time is so freaking long. It doesn't take other companies nearly that long. On the bright side, that's one of the quicker times I've seen. I've heard of them taking 6-8 months with some people. Mine comes Friday, pretty excited.

Not sure why the wait myself. Only thing I can figure is they hold orders to make a batch... but then you would hear of some people getting theirs in 2 months. Beats me. I suppose that they are just in that high of demand. Or creating the illusion of demand. pure speculation...
Crazy thing is, looking at it now, I'm glad i waited.

Here's what I did with mine: http://www.toyota-4runner.org/off-ro...ml#post1276305. It definitely took some extra work but I am really happy with how it came out.

Nice work, seems like you've put your time in under that hood. Thanks for the suggestion, i will keep those mods in mind.

I'm not sure how far you read but I ended up installing a wireless remote and I am just going to use that to control the winch. I figure if I absolutely need to access the winch plug, all I need is a screwdriver and I carry a set at all times so its not an issue.
Thanks! It has taken me countless hours to get all the wiring installed properly and cleanly.
Good luck!

Geez-Louise, There is no room ANYWHERE but to find somewhere under my hood. Looks like I am following suit with the underhood mount.
Your tediousness with detail is apparent in your photos.
