Finally took the winch tray off and mounted the winch. The relay box was a fiddle had to remount it further back over the winch drum, but its gone in under the bumper just right.

Why don't they want to insure truck with mods?

This problem does not exists at all in Sweden.

Gave it a good look over, and service the engine. All good so far!
Jacked it and checked steering and suspension, quick look at the brakes. Still all good!
Topped up the washer bottle and checked the brake fluid. Great , just the clutch fluid left to check this is where it goes a bit wrong

Please see my post in a different thread.

I topped up the battery with 3.5L of de-ionised water charged it and now it starts great.
Shame on me for letting the level get so low!
