    Not sure if they are made in that size but I have experienced good performance on and off road as well as longevity with my General Grabbers AT2s

    Ok help me out here guys. Synthetic vs. Steel Winch Line. Obviously weight is a factor, and how easily it rolls back up right? Are there any other factors that make you choose one or the other? The 2 winches I'm looking at now have a 150$ difference just for steel vs. synthetic (synthetic being more expensive). Is it worth that much more??!

    So why is one better that the other? I don't have a winch, and was wondering the same thing.

    also, it's about 40lbs difference on the front end of the truck. that was the big factor for me. I was fully on-board synthetic from the get-go until I saw the extra 40$ off today haha! That's such a good deal for the steel cable one. I still went for the synthetic though. I had a 50$ off coupon code for either so....and I'm willing to let somebody know that code to give it a try if they want to order.

    Damn $360 ain't bad. But I did see a thread pop up here on TW pretty recently where the general consensus from everybody was they wouldn't get anything less than a 12k winch, or were talking about how having less than a 12k was a mistake. Not telling you one way or another as I don't have any experience with them, just presenting the info.

    yeah those are probably the guys that think more than 3" of lift is necessary too. I won't need more than 9500 lbs, and if I do...I always have somebody else with me.
