Bottle jack relocation. - 5/31/2008 8:17:27 AM    meltdowndave   Posts: 117 Joined: 4/12/2008 Status: offline I'm in the process of installing my Warn winch and I'm planning on putting my solenoid box behind the battery where the jack currently is. Does anyone have a creative location for the bottle jack? _____________________________ 2003 Discovery S with 54,000 miles. Post #: 1

Wherever you put it make sure it gets alot of air across it so it won't fail on you out on the trail. _____________________________ Mike Retired service manager.

But since Mike mentioned the need to keep the solenoids cool, I might have to revisit the idea. _____________________________ 2003 Discovery S with 54,000 miles. (in reply to Spike555) Post #: 4
