Guess what I got via UPS today?

[mattadams]

I got a big suprise via UPS. BIG. Like, I wasn't expecting it, and it came!
OK here's the clues.
It came in 3 seperate packages.
I could not physically lift and move one of the boxes, I dont know the exact weight, but my guess is, somewhere around 200 pounds. I had to push it along the ice to my car, where it is still sitting right now, because I dont know if I can get it from my car to my apartment without a dolly or another lifter.
It is for the truck.

Guesses?

two midgets and a blow up doll

[mattadams]

now what would a midget do for my truck? LOL.

[Tray]

Winch + mounting bracket + accessory kit?

[Tray]

I could use a couple of midgets to help clean the undercarriage.

Maybe it's your goodies from Adams?

[Tray]

A lift kit for my truck?

[Tray]

Brand new transmission, and 2 monkeys to help install it?

This is why on multiple answer questions, teachers always say "go with your gut first, and don't change your asnwers later" LOL.
Except replace "accessory kit" with "legal information and stickers" LOL. Oh and replace "mounting bracket" with "power lead cables". I have no idea what all is in that box, I haven't even opened it yet.

[crazy rob]

nice!!

[mattadams]

Sorry, gave some wrong information. It would help if I knew what I had, eh?

Its the same winch, but is set up for multi-mount use. I was wondering why they gave me so much power cable. The story is, you can use it in forward or reverse, and they gave me wiring to run to the back of the vehicle. Now just have to get a front hitch-mount, and pray it works with the fabtech prerunner.

[rino351]

cool, I'm doing multimount as well. except w/ an 8000# winch

[UrbanCowboy]

If it doesn't work, I'll give you $100 for it. :lol:

[Tray]

That's pretty funny because I was researching that exact thing all day yesterday.

If you take a look on ebay, there's a front mount hitch somewhere local for pretty darn cheap right now.

I ordered a winch a couple of weeks ago, I just noticed Matt, you have the same one I ordered. May I ask how it works?

[mattadams]

uhh... its gotten me out of everything I've been stuck in? LOL.

[Walking Eagle]

Good, that's what I wanted to hear.

[Heath]

uhh... its gotten me out of everything I've been stuck in? LOL.


Wow, you got stuck in a parking lot huh... Must have been a puddle with a little rock in it or something...

[mattadams]

yeah yeah... well I had a Warn winch on my explorer that I would use quite frequently, and it always did exactly what it was supposed to, well designed, well built, and strong as a buck! :)
