Winch on the Way

April 15th, 2008 · No Comments

Just this last Sunday I ordered a few parts from Summit Racing for the trailer.  I ordered a SuperWinch 4000, a cover for it, and a quick connect kit.  Summit threw in a free hat.  They should arrive in “3 to 4 days” according to their email.

I also checked Year One and Jegs but decided to go with Summit.  I found a 25% discount coupon code for Year One (click here for it) but unfortunately their catalog was riddled with errors and the majority of the stuff I wanted were exempt from any discounts.  When shipping and handling costs were factored in, Year One ended up being $50 more expensive than Summit and Jegs even with the coupon code.  I didn’t go with Jegs because they didn’t have the right kind of quick connect I needed.

When the winch arrives, I will take the trailer back down to Deer Valley Trailer and have them do a few things.  I’ll have them mount the winch to the trailer, add a spare tire, and figure out why the break-away is not recharging when hooked up to the truck.
