I am going out of town till the 30th and this was the last major thing i could think of that i could get ahold of. My bumper is not going to like me once i am done mouting the winch as it has a weird mounting style to it.

Make a third **** to turn the cdl on/off- i did the 96- d1 swap and it took too long and was a mess.

I haven't had any experience with the 04 setup but you cant beat simplicity.

PM me if you decide to go the D1 route before you make any purchases.

I went out and bought another rod and reel (the exact same setup as before), new tent,ordered 2- 5gal jerry cans, and a plug and play D1 CDL shifter.

D1 shifter $140- Land Rover Discovery I Center Diff Lock CDL Linkage Shifter High Low Select | eBay

5gal Military Green Jerry Cans $34 each-Jerry Can 5 Gallon 20L Gas Fuel Army NATO Military Metal Steel Tank Prepper New | eBay

Attachment 21214Attachment 21215Attachment 21216
I still have the other winch, figured i could sell it or mount it in the back bumper or the front of my tow rig, so its still up in the air.

got two smittybuilt nato can carriers and two green 5 gal carriers.

make sure you put enough rvt in the tcase selector when mounting it- mine leaked cause i didnt use enough.
