Yep, poor powder coating sux because it is a biatch to get off. Luckily I have an in on it. My BIL does it and this particular stuff is some he uses on military contracts. It is tough as woodpeckers lips.

They call it the Carolina Hound….nose stays on the ground !
a blast from the past. I remember in the late 70's and 80's that's how 2 wheel drive trucks set.

Well as a side note there was no work going to be done today (supposedly). I organized all my tools and just farted around. I did late in the evening decide to give it the once over one more time and make sure I wasn't pinching any wires or rubbing something it shouldn't.
I was just about to give it the thumps up and happened to look right at the center of the cable spool and the hair stood up on the back of my neck. The damn drum was jammed tight against the air bag sensor. I don't mean touching I mean jammed.
It took about 3 hours without removing the winch to get to the dang thing get it off and relocated. It would have been so much easier to have removed the winch but I wasn't in the mood to do that.
