[OFFICIAL] Nor Cal Meet 03/12/2011

and you can't beat the free shipping and no tax with Amazon

 

That's the one I'm getting for sure I've read the reviews and see it in action so I will be icking one up this summer when I get my front bumper.

 

I have the 10K synthetic version in my bumper and i love it.

 

Yeah I'm going to get the synthetic rope to save the extra 30lbs

 

Don't get the smittybilt syn rope, its junk. I have read this time and time again on ttora. I forget the name, but there is a different type of syn line that handles heat much better, search you will find it. Once my steel line wears out I plan on getting this.

 

Oh good to know well the steel one is cheaper so that's a good thing.

 

This is the line I will get one day, not cheap, but very strong
http://www.jeepswag.com/winchline/index.html and maybe not from these guys, but this type

 

that's almost as much as the winch.

 

yep, but thats why I say maybe not from those guys. there are plenty of buying options

 

I recently picked up a Master Pull Super Line

Once again not cheap, but you get what you pay for. It is very tightly woven and can handle a lot of weight. Havn't gotten to try it out yet, but ill be the first to pull out the winch if anyone gets stuck in march

 

When the ef did you get a winch Jason?

 

Damn Jason's rolling in the Big bucks now. Maybe I should apply for that open all pro position..

 

I've got the Smittybilt synthetic line. Its made out of Dyneema SK-75. The same as Amsteel blue.

The masterpull stuff is nice.. has a sheath along the entire length, but damn it is expensive.

CopperT has the Smittybilt line as well and had no trouble pulling you guys up the hill in bear valley.

 

You got a point there I'm still leaning on the synthetic line and if it just so happens to break I'll buy a new stronger one. having that 30lbs difference is nice.

 

Ive got the smitty synthetic and ive had no issues with it at all.

 

I think for occasional use the Smittybilt line is fine. Lots of people use the amsteel blue and its the same material. Maybe if I was out wheeling Fordyce every other weekend I would worry about it and buy something more expensive.

 

Yeah I know I will probably only use it a hand full of times a year.

 

yeah you'll probably be fine, as I said I'm just conveying what I read on ttora, and alot of those guys wheel alot harder than %99.9 of the people here.

 

Yeah that's what I was thinking after you had told me you were reading on ttora. Those guys wheels a lot harder then I do.
