Winch Battery Disconnect Switch - Location

Hey guys, here is a pic of where I mounted my winch battery disconnect switch.

Where else have you guys mounted yours?

Thanks!

 

Mines tucked up on the wall here. Sorry I’ll get a pic later.

 

I went with the kit a guy on here makes. Switch, bracket and batt cable.

Installs on the upper support where the beeper (the one the beeps when locking/ unlocking doors) goes. Beeper then attaches to that bracket.

 

i left the heat-shrinked lug on the cable, coiled up just in front of the battery. i bolt it on when i need it. eventually i'll get to making my plate for all the breakers i need...

LambTek is the way to go, real clean and easy to install.

How many continuous amps is your switch rated?

 

Which positive battery terminal did you use.....did you have to lug the oem positive cable?


I assume powertrays makes that battery mount? I was thinning of using a flat piece of aluminum to mount on the OEM hold down and attach the MRCB(s) just like yours. .....buying is faster than fabbing!! (click, pay, open box, bolt on!)


Same Lambtek, more stuff sitting in boxes (voswitch, BSS fuse & gnd bus....) that I need to install! For me their pre-made cable (which is nice and flexible), isn't long enough, I want all off the cables routed between the battery and fuse box

 

Just in case this would be useful for your application. I used one in my truck in Alaska so that I didn't have to open the hood. Battery switch is remotely operated via a low voltage, momentary contact switch in the cab that you can wire though the firewall. HTH.

Also running the Lambtek innovations full kit. Several years now with no issues.

 

Yes, Lambtek. Nice set up. Thank you all for the memory help!!

 

Where did you get the panel / mount for your electrical distribution point for a Manual!?!?! does it come with the clutch reservoir relocation parts? I really like what you have done re electrical here...

 

His looks like it’s from Power trays….I think that’s their logo. Check their website, not sure if they sell a relocation mount.

I bought one but a blank version without any holes or cutouts because I’m not sure on my layout.

I believe that’s a PowerTray, I have one also- it’s a nice setup.

 

I got it from Powertrays, they make a bracket to relocate the clutch reservoir. You’ve just gotta email them to get it. Installation was not a lot of fun but it’s not impossible either.

 

Where did you get your battery hold down. I've been looking for similar with no success.

 

Look at power trays site, but you have to have a flat battery.

 

Thanks, I'd looked there but didn't look under circuit breakers.

 

I should have linked it, i hate non-informational posts!
Also poor searches on website!

I have the oem style battery, I think I’m going to try to diy that part…..flat aluminum attached to the oem hold-down.
