GA requires a commercial 26K tag,but fees aren't too bad.
Question on winch power...I got a Sherpa 25k winch wired for 24v, still trying to cipher a physical attachment to the front and/or rear shackle lugs ala towbar with power from the NATO coax. I am using the stock 6P battery setup...what are the odds it would work ?

Scope out what @chucky has on the front of his truck.

Another guy @Gunny 0369 with a Sherpa has a warning about how you want to bolt it to the truck.

Nice winch, those Sherpa are. I a lil newton law and amps draw specs, I think you will be fine. I ran a dedicated 4/0 or 0000guage to the front, and want to insert the winch inward of the D rings so it doesn't protrude too far and I can still open the cab, planning to weld tabs to the cross beam and bolt the winch cradle to it. and the bumper

Its stout and very compact for the whopping 4k AMPS, I haven't tried the jump start function, like the battery pack feature.. Really got it for the multi-weather environment and cold weather capability, built in temp sensor and internal heater :) You can charge from wall, USB or other 12V source.

Good addition to the tool box, I think

Hey all, I am sure you all understand, life has a way of stepping in the way or taking priority. New job, travels, ailments, family, friends, weather and time ect ect.

Reis TB still has a beating heart, just absolutely need to figure out how to add time to the 24 hour clock. If you have the instructions, please pass them my way.

Again, sorry about the lack of COMS.
