I haven't read all of the posts, but I would definitely recommend going ahead with a synthetic rope.
Not trying to plug, but we sell a ton of the Engo 9000S =  $400 (Delivered to your door step).
Okay plug over :)


Although $400 is not bad for a winch with synthetic cable (referring to my last post). What kind of warranty is offered on the Engo 9000S?
Limited lifetime warranty on mechanical
components with a 1-Year warranty on electrical components.

The RR and Smitty are good options too.

Smittybuilt  XRC 10k on mine...  Used a dozen times and never failed...  Only complaint I have with version 1 is it faded and looks like its 10yrs old when it's only 2....  Version 2 is supposed to weather better...

I've got a previous gen smitty xrc8 with synthetic line and love it other than the fading issue mentioned above.

Well, I hinted around to the wife today about the winch. She said get it, she doesn't care. Best thing is I threw out the hint about the Smitty with the synthetic rope! hehehe....

Fixing to pull the trigger on a new winch ;)

Yep. I see new kitchen cabinets in your future.

I know my soft doors cost me dining room chairs.


All good though, you got to pay to play
