much faster under load the wheel speed to winch line speed (single line) was matched on 3.5 diffs & 35" simex, have now gone to the air freespool which im planning on upping the gear ratio again in the near future so might have a set of plus 40's available, have only done 2 events
-
i had standard gearing in mine & i am running xp motors aswell, have gone to +40s when i still had my standard bottom housing & it transformed the winch, soo much faster
-
+40?

how much rope fits on an 8274
RedLineMike replied to alex milton-haynes's topic in International Forum
on my standard 8274 i can get 125ft of 12mm, which fills it right up to the top of the drum, iirc simon buck uses 150ft of 11mm on his front winch -
rain X the windscreen is a top tip
-
i can agree with you there
-
brake fluid makes the seals swell up its a top bodge on leaking PAS box's to get them through an MOT
-
Does anyone know what the length of a standard front radius arm is? Also wondering what the measurement is from the radius arm bracket to the centre of the axle Cheers
-
i normally use a blunt electrical screwdriver & lots n lots of washing up liquid makes it easyer to force it in the hole
-
if you speak to JE engineering they will supply you with the studs you requires along with the washers which allow slight movement on the manifold
-
speak to Colin Rodger (Alarmgard or ColinR) on SORC or SLROC as he might be able to help you

200tdi strange sound and rough idle
RedLineMike replied to tazzman's topic in Defender Forum (1983 - 2016)
i would also check the valve clearances as i had that on a disco 200 tdi & the covers that the rockers run on had worn away & increased the size o the clearance -
I used a turbo n inlet manifold from a disco in my 90 when I converted it ti an auto using a disco 200tdi n auto box
-
Put the disco engine in place on the defender engine ounts n use a 300 tdi turbo n inlet manifold assembly as it fits a lot easier n the pipework is much neater n more straightforwad
-
ive run 125ft or 11mm plasma & 12mm dyneema, ropes always washed after an event & hung out to dry & kept in the house, so far the dyneema has lasted better than the plasma, i currently get approx 1 year of use from a rope before it goes in the bin but normally get 3/4 events on the front & 2/3 events on the rear
-
300 pumps are a straight fit on 200's as I've had one on my 200tdi for last year or so
