The attached instructions for the Dutton-Lainson StrongArm Electric Winch, part # DL25200, explain how the wires should be run on your vehicle when installing. You will run the positive wire from the harness under your truck, avoiding any exhaust or moving parts to the positive post of your battery under the hood. It may also be necessary to remove the circuit breaker assembly from the positive wire in order to feed the wire under the car. You would then fasten the circuit breaker to the positive (+) battery terminal (if nut and bolt type) or to the battery side of the starter solenoid.

You then need to attach the ground wire to the frame, making sure it is a clean and tight connection.
