Title: Looking for a synthetic winch rope
Post by: grifenhagen on September 01, 2013, 01:26:50 AM
I might be posting this in the wrong spot, so I apologize in advance if I am. I'm a newbie here.
I just ordered a smittybilt xrc10 for my truck, and it'll be here Tuesday.  id like to ditch the steel cable that comes with it and get a synthetic rope.
I could only budget enough for the non-comp version of the xrc10 (379.99) when I ordered it, but I just now got a paycheck in the mail that I wasn't expecting, so id like to get a synthetic rope.
Do any of y'all have one you'd be willing to sell? I have been browsing the Internet looking at some, and id like to keep it under 200 dollars. Preferably under 150 (don't know if that's possible!). Any brands y'all would recommend? Thanks in advance, and again, I apologize if this is in the wrong section!

I have a spare Warn one I would sell.  It's the one that came in the Zeon 10s setup.  I'm out of town until tomorrow evening, but I can get the actual part number from the box when I get home.  The rope is still in the box.

I am evidently a beta user of Tapatalk 4 even though I paid for the software...this software is buggy.

Check out the vendor Scuba Jeepster on jeep forum.  I got mine from him. 85' of 3/8" Viking line with a safety thimble.

Yep I am in the market for a new line now. Old line was 5/16, going to be buying 3/8ths to replace it.

If you double line with a 9K winch that might not be strong enough.   I'd go with 3/8.

Well, one day turned into one week.  Regardless, here are the pics http://s854.photobucket.com/user/clark123456/slideshow/FOR%20SALE/Warn%20Synthetic%20Rope%20and%20Hawse%20Fairlead. 

I had forgotten that I also have the hawse fairlead with the synthetic rope.

I'll sell both for $240, tax free.

Wow, I posted this in the wrong section and it got moved (I thought it got deleted) and I just now found the post.
The link doesn't work for me to see the pic, but I'm very interested. Could you try posting the pic again?

Any experience with their rope? I'm thinking I'm about to pull the trigger and order it.
