If you're capable with a few basic tools, installing a Carbon Winch is easy, with step by step instructions and many extras included to get the job done. We also thought of your safety by including an isolator switch with extra cabling, so when you're not using your winch it's safely turned off and no live power wires are at the front of your vehicle.

Mounting the control box is easy with a multi fit system that can either be mounted on the winch, above the winch drum or motor. Or with the bracket can be mounted to the vehicle or on top of your bullbar. As you know, "looks" are a big part of any 4x4 build, so we have included in your winch kit an ultra sexy CNC'd anodized alloy signature Carbon fairlead paired with our own robustly designed hook that makes you stand out from the crowd. Weight is a serious consideration with all 4WD accessories, the Carbon Winch is super lightweight at only 43.0lbs (19.7kg).
