    Husky Super Winch fitting/removal

    It's back on wound nice and tight, fitted a Bowmotor which went reasonably ok until it came to the mount, there is an eartJ on the base of the Bowmotor which sits about 10 mm out of place and throws a whole can of worms up in the air which involved drilling and cutting the winch mount, much...

    passenger side blowing cool air when drivers side blows hot (9ish)

    we took Humpy out for a blast around Flash / Leek today and discovered when the Heater direction lever is midway, ie air to windscreen and footwell the heat from both side is equal, we double checked by switching it to windscreen and footwell alone and when on the latter thats when the cold air...

    passenger side blowing cool air when drivers side blows hot (9ish)

    you can feel the cold right at the air duct exit at the passenger sides knees, its significantly colder than the drivers side, im driving along commenting ,, hey the heater works and wife says its blowing cold her side,, and it was.. to put it into context, im not going to dismiss any...

    thanks for that Al2O3 im ata loss but will start taking her apart in the next couple of days, we have pretty much equal air flow just differing temperature, to answer the earlier question the vent is closed and the air flow is solely coming from the air duct vent near your knees

    passenger side blowing cool air when drivers side blows hot (9ish)

    I cant get my head around why we would get good air flow, as blower is behind matrix, and warm out of one side cold out of the other??????? doesnt make sense

    no on another one, one with a non standard dash, we are getting a good flow of air through both just ones cold

    passenger side blowing cool air when drivers side blows hot (9ish)

    done a matrix and foam before, however that wouldnt explain the heat on the drivers side? The other defender doesnt have anything more than the bulk head hole so no knowledge of the routing or access to it on the one with the issue.. its where to start really.. is it dash out ?
