Front Winch Install

[Oldpath05]

My Fransgard 3004 winch while hooked to these trees not yet limbed and with both brakes on, on frozen ice on frozen ground last Saturday pulled my tractor backwards 8', but the winch won.

Nice install. That's a beast of a winch.

How is it affecting your ground clearance, especially over stumps or going uphill over rough stuff?

A little update on the winch and ground clearance. I moved the plastic control box to underneath the hood. I kept hitting it on ground objects, branches etc. I'll post pictures of the new mounting place when I get my tractor back. It has been at the dealer's for 8 weeks now awaiting to be fixed for a DPF emissions failure.

Look at Kioti Operating Forum and read the Error Code 0008 messages. It is long. My tractor has been back to the dealer 3 times for a plugged up DPF due to ????? They can't seem to figure out what the problem is.
