    ^ What he said.

    Winches will come with the wiring, so no stress there, and if you do need to use it keep the engine running so you're not putting a strain on the battery.

    Thanks man!

    ^ Also this, if I have access to order it I'll happily check what I can do on pricing!

    @Overkill07 has one, you need to get one that 2x pulling as the weight of your truck. I’ve got a Superwinch Tigershark 9500 with steel line. I don’t care for synthetic

    I've had a Smittybilt for years now and it only failed on me once when the solenoid contacts got dirty. They're solid winches for a good price. Defintely get at least a 9500.

    I've had the x20 for a little over a year now and have no complaints. Hasnt given my any problems except for the side solenoid bracket breaking. Smitty's CS was easy to deal with to get it replaced.

    Thanks. Got home safe, it just took forever!
    I've had mine for almost 3 years. It has pulled my self up every obstacle I've ever asked of it. Its pulled every one else up and has even moved my brother-in-laws shed about 40 ft and helped dismantle his porch.

    Needless to say, it's been a great winch. You wont go wrong with it.

    I can vouch for the fact the @Overkill07s x20 winch has literally had his life in its hands and it didn’t hiccup at all

    That fuel can launched out of that carrier on his swingout. I was trying to catch him and Aron was trying to catch me. I forget why we were racing up there though.
