Modifying my Jeeps Winch | Synthetic Line and Factor 55 FlatLink Install

In this video I'm replacing my winch cable with a synthetic line on my Jeep Wrangler JK and changing the hook to use a Factor55 Flatlink closed system shackle.

Watching the multiple dropped screws was worth it. 😉 Great job. By the way, you use snap ring pliers on those clips.

Thanks for the comment Scott! Haha yes I need to get a magnetic tip screw driver I think 😄 Ah is that the tool I need for it . Thanks !

it's amazing a small screw holds the winch and can take so much pressure. Also, what's the benefit of the synthetic winch? I am sure you were frustrated, but it was funny to watch you losing the screw :)

Thanks sir! Haha ya it was pretty funny :D Well the thing with that screw, is it actually just stops the winch from unraveling while it's loose. When its under tension, the rope wrapped around the winch is what stops it from moving and not the little screw. That's why when you do use the winch, you shouldn't totally unwind it, but still keep about 5 rolls around the drum in order to keep it tight.
