Description
This kit relocates yourSmittybilt Winch Control Box to the engine bay of your truck.
Why do I need this?
This upgrade has multiple advantages.
Firstly – this makes plugging in your winch controller very easy and safe. Simply pop your hood and plug it in. The control box on the Smittybilt X20 winch has an On/Off button on it that activates the wireless signal – this gives you easy access to it! This alsomakes charging your wireless remote a breeze.
Secondly – the control box is the least waterproof and most likely part to cause your winch to fail. Moving it to the top of the engine bay keeps the contactors and electrical connections away from submersion in water, mud and road grime.
Thirdly – Not all winches can fit behind a bumper because the control box interferes. This kit solves that problem and adds function at the same time.
What length do I need?
Most applications require 6 feet or less. The winch comes with the ground cable 6′ long which is almost always long enough.
Using a piece of rope, route where you want to mount your control box in your engine bay within 1.5 feet of your battery (+) and down to the electrical terminals on yourSmittybilt Winch. Measure the length of this rope to determine what length you require for your kit. Make sure you give yourself enough slack, its better to be a bit too long than too short.

– Control Box Mounting Bracket (Powder Coated Black)
