Morris fat quad

Question

Can someone explain the route of the winch cable when used at the front of the vehicle, I know it has guide rollers on the left front chassis, but it is from the rear near side drum to the front

regards jeff

Hi - Found this link interesting, and also a lesson in be-careful of what you find on the internet.  Did anybody else note the miss-identification of the CMP CGT as "WWII re-enactment. Morris Commercial C8 Quad Artillery Tractor Unit Festival of History 2010, Kelmarsh Hall, Northamptonshire."

Cheers Phil

Many thanks Richard, yes I have that illustration in my manual, it is the route the cable takes once it leaves the near side (left) pulley on its way to the front, there must be at least two more pulleys or fare leads to direct the cable down to chassis height and then to the front cable rollers
