INSTALLATION HELP!!
I am trying to get a new bumper and winch installed this weekend. I bought the CBI covert and a Smittybilt G3 winch, 2017 Tacoma. Anyone out there with this set up? How did you end up mounting the winch controller? I was about ready to lift it in place, but when I looked at the wiring coming out of the controller, it looks like it is going to try and occupy the same space as the power steering cooler. If I take the wires out of the controller and below the winch's side-side bracket, it looks like it might work. But then the wires are between the bracket and the rope. If I mount the controller on the side, it looks like it might fit, but there is a cooling return line (?) that will be a complete ********** to work on. Any ideas?
