Hello Friends! This was a fun little video to make and I hope you learned how easy it is to add quick disconnects to any aux items you may want to add to your rigs. This winch was too powerful for this truck under stock battery/alternator conditions, but it will serve as an example of how to perform the install.

got it

@safetythirdwoodworking23 6 месяцев назад

Great idea, just copied you!! Consider adding a fuse between the disconnect and the battery as your beautiful truck could burn to the ground is the hot wire gets a nick and grounds out.

Good advice!!

@@accountant_mechanic_ Another consideration would be a circuit breaker. We used these all the time for car audio and winch installations. Since they can be reset, you have the ability to let everything cool off, clear the load and reset without fishing out a fuse. Depending on the winch, they have 50-200A. Thanks for the informative video!

I love this idea. In theory can I use this type of connection and plug it into my the battery on my car trailer? That way i can plug it into my trunk during use and my winch would draw from 3 batteries. Then if someone borrowed my trailer the winch would still work because the trailer has its own battery.

Just make sure your alternator can handle the load!

so what would be the process of adding quick disconnects for front and back of truck? Would you have to add a central junction separating to front and back ? I found this helpful Thank you

@accountant_mechanic_ 8 месяцев назад

Because my winch was on a cradle I did the exact thing you're asking about- I ran wire from my battery all the way to the rear hitch, where the winch would be plugged in. Same exact process as the front, no extra junction needed. I ground directly to the frame in the rear so only power was ran to the back. I put the wire in a plastic loom for added protection and ran it along the frame rail!

What size wire was the winch cable wire?

@accountant_mechanic_ 7 дней назад

Hello there, sorry for the late reply. I believe it was 2 gauge!

@vicc6744 Месяц назад

what size cable did you run from the battery to the rear of the truck

@accountant_mechanic_ Месяц назад

Sorry for the late reply, I ran standard winch wire, which I believe is 2 gauge!

@@accountant_mechanic_ sounds great- did you do any winching from the rear location- and there were no problems?- hot wires? lack of winch power?

@accountant_mechanic_ Месяц назад

Nothing hot. I ran it through a plastic sleeve to protect it. I only ever winched once from the back to get the truck onto a trailer. I kept the idle up so I didn't notice any power issues
