The Golden Triangle (Beaumont, Port Arthur, Nederland)

True.

 

But Dennis logic!

To hell with mechanical advantage.

 

I've already been researching this subject for quite some time. It will really be determined by what you will require your winch to do for you. I have listed several below that have peeked my interest but I'm sure I will go with something more than I need, just because......Well look at my screen name, lol.

Bulldog Winches
Engo Winches
Kodiak Winches
Superwinch
T-Max Winches
Mile Marker Winches
Rugged Ridge Winches
TJM Winches
Ramsey Winches

 

Yup installed a new OME kit about a month ago

 

Thats almost every winch out there lol choose 2 and then I'll pick the one you don't buy

 

Go read that winch showdown article. Narrows it down to about 3.

 

Superwinch, Mile Marker or Warn. Those are the ones that I'm leaning to.

 

It's a great review but leaves some key players out. Check it out though. It will give you some insight as to what to look for when purchasing a winch.

 

Don't get stuck and you won't need a winch

 

But what if you decide to go swimming again

 

You won't be there in time to save me

 

Plus I'll just let the truck go by that time. Say my good byes

 

I got the Smittybilt 8k and then switched the line out for synthetic. I've used it for vehicle recovery of myself/others about 5 times but I lost track of how much crap I've moved with it clearing trails and land. I think I've had it for 3 years now and its still kicking. I would suggest going with the 10k though, I think that's the next size up. Get that with syncthic line and a good recovery kit and you'll be able to get out of 99% of situations....unless you pull a Dennis

Good idea! I really need to run cables to my rear so I can use my cradled winch in the back as well.

Dont forget smittybilt! Also you can go crazy fancy and get one of those ComeUp winches. BoxRocket did a nice review on them, they're about as expensive as Warns I believe.

 

Didn't mean to leave Smith built off the list, we had just already talked about then. Those ComeUp winches are supposed to be bad ads. I forgot about those.

 

Ha its all good, just keeping the playing field open. Yeah they're supposed to be pretty much everything proof, supposedly it would have still been kicking even if it had taken a dive with Gold digger @357sig

 

Lol my tiger shark still works. It never touched the water

 

@Tacodriver08 still gonna do the slider install Friday?

 

Nice! They could use that for advertising.

Tiger Shark Winches - For when the going gets tough...just doesn't do it justice

 

Its looking dim, our hardware didn't ship out ill yesterday I think so it probably wont be here till next week but I'm still game for helping put yours on. My buddy who has the apex sliders will be there and can lend a hand as well.

 

Lmao nvm that picture looks likes it's under water....
