    I'm wondering how the Pro handles the weight up front with the stock Fox coilovers. I'm leaning toward a front locker before a winch at the moment, but this is a decision point.

    I dont own a pro but you dont have to change out springs tell about 150lbs. A sso and winch put you just under that so you would be fine in my opinion. For what its worth. If your looking for a winch option only you could always do a hidden sdhq winch mount and winch and be well within its capabilities. That would look very clean on a pro too

    SSO is only about 45lbs, the strength compromise wasn’t worth it to me.
    Some sag, bout 1/2. Also have dual battery and arb double pump under hood, plus a big 10k Zeon winch.

    Shored up the small sag with some 1/2 tpytec spacers. That’ll hold me till the next king GB.

    When you say strength compromise do you not believe the aluminum bumper could handle being used as a recovery point or used as an actual winch bumper.

    I’m skeptical. I know the SSO works as that. I’m open it could work, but haven’t seen a lot of evidence.
