    I just put the included hook on for now. What is the difference between using the flat link vs just putting a shackle directly on the winch line? I'd have a hard time spending $140 on that, unless I'm missing something?

    warn also makes one

    The big thing is the rope isn't exposed to the elements and UV. it also looks pretty and doesn't rattle around.

    and it's a fully closed loop system, which is safer.

    most people recommend using soft shackles these days. The less things to become a projectile, the better.

    At least compared to how you have it in the pictures, with a flat line it won't be exposed to the elements.

    also there's usually a nylon sleeve that comes with the winch line that you put on the end of it to help protect it.

    This makes sense! I will look into it and probably order one or the other. I don't think I would actually use a hook for a recovery situation anyway.

    I don't think mine came with one:(

    Bilstein 6112's and medium load springs in front, 5100's and heavy load Bilstein 1.5" lift springs in back. BDS Upper control arms.
