    Got skids but haven't gotten them mounted up yet. I also need to replace my front abs sensors and probably get an alignment too. she pulls when breaking, and that plus the abs being out makes driving in the snow...exciting

    I finally got around to getting rid of that freekin' winch cable. I went with an Arachni 7/16ths synthetic rope (100ft):



    And of course a new fairlead:



    My Shittybilt XRC 9.5 has never freespooled worth a crap. So I pulled it apart and saw that it was packed with grease to the point where it almost immovable. Given this, I dismantled the son of a bitch:


    Then I cleaned the gears as best I could:


    I reassembled with a light coating of molly on the gears. I didn't put ANY lube between the freespool sleeve thing and the main housing. I just took the clutch lever off and filled it with WD-40 while rotating the drum. The grease just provides too much friction and restricts free-spooling. It free-spools like a dream now. I just need to remember to put some WD-40 in there every so often. I got the idea from this video and it works awesome:
