The jeep in my pictures had one of the new 10k winch that did a really good job

 

When mine worked it did fine, but the problem is it didn't work all the time ☹️

 

dang makes me think about dropping the dough for a warn

 

I'm sure most have had good luck with the smittybilt, or we'd hear more, but I didn't

 

Usually its the relay's that get over heated and stop working. Having a pair of snatch blocks works pretty good.

 

No issues out of my xrc 9.5.

 

Lol they've been doing that for years

 

I've only seen 1 other person and I've been here since 08. I search for stuff about it alot

 

I've had an XRC8 for 5 years. First thing I did was change the shit grease in it out for good synthetic and took apart the solenoid box and put dialectic grease on everything. Then I sealed it up.

Works great till this day.

 

I've got a smittybilt 9.5 with maybe 5 pulls on it (all of them were pulling out my stuck lawn mower so super light recoveries) and the plug on the winch where the remote plugs into broke. One of the small pins broke off and there was quite a bit of corrosion in it, even with the rubber cover properly installed. Would have sucked if that stupid of a part failed when you really needed to use it.

 

It's been done a good amount man. I did mine last year

 

We are talking about the axle tube right? I know the case swap has been done a million times.

 

I'm doing mine this year, should be plenty of info out there!

 

you could hot wire it to make it work

 

@xweslingx @Mothman @HolyHandGrenade @HomerTaco are just few I know of but tons of others have. You aren't searching enough lol
(@HomerTaco 's)



Buy this from @Mothman

Front diff ADD wire harness to run fj manual shift case, made by wyattatrocksolidtoys.

 

No no no, I'm not talking about the t-case. I know that has been done a million times

I am talking about using the FJ axle tube from a 6 speed FJ to eliminate add and make full manual 4x4 system. You can toss the 4x4 computer

 

I was thinking about getting twin stick conversion. Not sure if I wanna pay extra for it. Don't really need it

 

I haven't done the ADD delete yet. Knock on wood my actuators still functional

 

I'm doing it end of this year. I'm on actuator number 3

 

@xweslingx gave me the idea and advice, I'm buying the axle tube now so I'll have all I need for the swap and get rid of the electronics, and Wyatt said he's starting to sell the single stick but it took a few weeks to get to me, then set up a date with @allenfab to do the swap and onto the rear axle (also done by Wes)
