5:30 I crimp... and then I solder. I get the benefit of the cable not falling out when the connection overheats, but also the even better connection due to the solder filling the gaps and the corrosion resistance.
My ONLY comment for when you soldered the ends onto your cables. You should have put flux on to make absolutely certain the connection is good and that it won't come loose. Otherwise it's a nicely done job. The only reason I say this is because my father just about bashed into my head the mentality of "I'm lazy enough where I never want to get back into here so I'm going to do whatever I can to make certain I never need to get back in here". Heck, I'm even crazy enough to add flux and then crimp it before soldering. Yes it's overkill, but every connection I've done like this has never failed me.
Great video. I will disagree with the little HF winch like on you F525 is not a good atv winch. I'm sure it is fine for your application. My riding buddy put one on his 425 magnum as part of a super cheap build. It structurally failed the first time he got stuck. We didn't think he was stuck bad so using my atv as pull point not anchored. He was stuck a bit more and it dragged my machine with the brakes locked about a foot. When we went for a second pull, it didn't work and found the carnage.
Yikes, I’ve never had any issues with mine on my Deere and it’s an 800 pound stick in the mud when it gets stuck. I always load it up gently though, maybe the chinesium metal doesn’t like sudden loading/yanking?
@@thedoubtfultechnician8067 it wasn't sunnden yanking. I was acting as an anchor point and letting the winch do the work. We had a good laugh and I pulled him out with mine. HF did warranty it and he got his money back to put towards a Warn. On a side note, it doesn't lool like you put a fairleed on the atv. If it was mine, I'd add one. Best wishes on the ankle heeling quickly.
Just got a 89 Yamaha big bear that I have to do the exact job on. You read my mind. Thx. All that's left is a snowmobile video. Btw where is the white tray? Slacking
Old Yamahas are cool. Had an old Timberwolf 250. Really had to stir that manual transmission to keep up with the bigger machines, but it never quit! I’m trying to come up with a witty retort to your tray comment, but truth be told, you’re right- I really am slacking.
Wasn't looking to subscribe to somebody today, evidently this videos deserves a subscribe

This is just straight up to the point, simple and tell it like it is, sounds like deadpool narrating😂 awesome

It’s flux core solder!
@@thedoubtfultechnician8067 Ahh alright that makes sense. I've never used the stuff so I didn't realize that's what you were doing and/or using.
LOLOLOLOLOLOL!! Am I the only one that got the Aussie wire joke???
I came here to comment on that! I'm crying! haha.
I should have watched this video before I bought my wire from Australia!🤦♂️
😂🤣😂

Omg its not the space shuttle. Use either
Going forward all my $500 junkyard vehicles will get aviation certified crimps.
