Alabama thread!

I've had as much as 1025# on my Dobinsons. Love them. Not bad ride unloaded either.

 

I'm about to have 650-700lbs constant on them and I'm at about 2.25" of lift over stock right now. Been very happy

 

I'm currently 500-600. Last February I had the rear spring recall done. Didn't hold up to the weight. They lasted until July- August. I'm glad they were free, just my Saturday morning.

 

What do you have? I looked at your build page, just said 10k winch.

 

My tie rods also don't squeak. They did that time at straight to ale because of mud in the front end but now it's cleaned out they dont.

 

I also have the x20, I just wanted to let you know about Jeff's issues. Like I said it' worked well every time for me.

 

Gotcha, thanks. Honestly I don't know much about winches besides the warn name, but I can promise you I'm not paying $1000 for a winch. Bout to have a big black friday and a $1000 winch doesn't compute. Is the extra money worth it between the two for only 500lb capacity?

 

I would say yes man, it's not the capacity, you also get a wireless winch remote which is very convenient. And it's waterproof, meaning ip68 idk what the 9.5k winch is but it' not sealed.

 

Oh, ok. Thanks

 

Yes sir

Looked it up. You have ip68, the other is 67. Good explanation on all of it though

 

The main thing for me was the wireless remote. I promise if youre in mud you'll thank me

 

I was at the slab catfishing and scrap some paint off that fresh skid plate

 

Lol I don' think I have any paint left after yesrterday

 

Ive got 3 deep gouges and 2 dozen little scracthes

 

My issue is with the switch on the winch that switches it from wired to wireless. Seems they are quite a few having the same problem, I called them and they are sending me a different new water proof switch. Seems the original switch is not water proof, imagine that a water proof winch and the switch on the control box is not. They are sending me a new water proof switch.

 

I've got rust on sliders and skids bc fuck touching that stuff up every trip. Lol

Edit: my skids are also tweaked and dented bc clearance i have to use momentum for some obstacles.

 

Also air lockers are the truth. Get stuck let off gas to take tension off drivetrain tap button and go. No reason to give hell trying to do anything unlocked when it's so quick and easy to activate and deactivate.

 

@JBTacoma, you working on videos?

 

Im from the north and rust scares the shit outta me. So mine will be touched asap lol
