    If you use the steel cable a few times then switch to synthetic the drum can mess up the synthetic.

    I thought about keeping the steel to put some weight on the front end but I hadnt heard about this. I dont do mud but here it's not much of a choice.

    1997 t4r has super duty axles, 5.13s locked front and rear. 3 link front with 14" kings. Rear 63s.
    I did the free prime trial so maybe this winch will be a bit cheaper. I doubt it since it's the 15th already and the price hasn't changed

    If you stay out of the mud for the most part and clean the line every once in a while, the synthetic is worth the safety factor IMO

    Damn it Amazon is sold out of the smittybilt. Winch now. Got to be kidding me. They showed in stock last night for 299 and 399



    Well called them and they do have it. Guess I had to be signed in to get the price.

    Swapping to synthetic line depends on the manufacturer. I wanted to, but upon researching it states very clearly not to with my super winch. Upon further research, I found out that with mine at least, if you switch, the synthetic rope can in fact crush the drum under load.

    Placed a order for a smittybilt gen 2 xrc 9.5 with a steel cable. Got a 20% off and paid 239.99 with free shipping. Hot damn.

    Autozone owns the website autoanything.com so I get a 20% off code when I check out. It didn't work so I called and they overrode the price to 239.99. Same place I bought my rims from. 954 for all 4 they told me oli got cost but I dk about that

    Nammer you can get that winch shipped for 399.99 with steel cable and synthetic line is a bit more. Plus it's not 4 yrs old already
