Yeah, I thought the butt plug bit would get you in here.... :lol:

Got a winch? Rather have it reeled all the way in than having it hooked onto the bulbar or recovery point. Don't want to pay $50 and wait a few weeks for it to arrive. New to Dodgy Dave industries is the Winch Stop Butt Plug.

Get yourself a urethane boat roller from BCF for about $10-12, The choice of Blue, Black, Grey and Red are at your disposal.

And just as a wise man once said, Cut that bitch like it owes you money. TIP Whether it be using a drop saw, jig saw or hand saw, Use a wood cutting blade, I just grabbed the jigsaw which already had one on it.

Chances are like me, you've rushed it and cut it at an angle, Grind it down flat with a flap disc. Even if you didn't cut it at an angle, it leaves it finished much nicer.

Image

Time to put it on the rope, Oh shit, The metal hold down clamp doesn't fit, chuck it in a vice and squash it until the hole it oval, Now it'll go through. Shmart finking right there..

Image

Feed it through down to the thimble.. And all done.

Cheers. I'm sure hillbully has an abundance of them at it's disposal. A bit like old mate rogercordia.. :)

Before anyone asks the winch rope is 9mm but will fit 10mm, and may fit other car's other than coily's.
