winch

So I’ve been having some issues with my winch, a Quadratec 10k winch with synthetic line. I’ve had it a few years and have only used it a handful of times. Anyways, I went to let out some of the line, not under any load and I get the clicking of the solenoid but the doesn’t go in/out. Initially...

Just hoping to get some recommendations on some synthetic winch lines. I know people speak very highly of TRE I am considering it but the price point is just killing me. Is there any options slightly more affordable that are still of good quality?

Purchased this winch plate to mount the Smittybilt X20 just last week and decided to use a lifted plate instead to make sure both my bumper and winch were straight. Plate is almost new as it was only installed and left in for a few days without driving the jeep. You can see the installation...

I pinched my winch cable today. Is it done for or is it okay?

Hey guys — as some of you may have seen in a previous post, I found a Mile Marker winch (non working) and stinger bumper for sale on Facebook for $50. I ended up getting everything for $30! The winch motor ended up needing new brushes, which I replaced and now works fine. I’m now mounting the...

Like the title says, I have a new in box warn zeon 8s winch. The s stands for synthetic rope if you didn't know. This winch retails new for $1245, i'm asking $900. If you have any questions about the winch, follow this link :) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00AAKSOWQ/?tag=wranglerorg-20 I will ship...

We're passing our Green Monster along to the next Jeep enthusiast as our mountaineering obsession is surpassing our 4x4 passion. Plus we no longer have a garage to properly work on the Jeep or park with the top down all summer. Make me an offer or trade for a 4runner! I posted on Craigslist...

When I bought my TJ it came with Warn's Rock Crawler front bumper, which I rather like, but over the center section of the bumper was a small hoop with tabs to mount lights, along with some upgraded tow hooks. In order to get my winch on the bumper, I have to get rid of that hoop, which is smack...

Just a quick question for you winch experts, I recently replaced my steel cable with 100' of 3/8 synthetic line. I managed to fit it all on there, but there is only around 1/2" to 3/4" of space between the full spool and the winch cross bars. How much room do you generally run? I could see how I...

Hey fellow jeepers, I got a winch for Christmas and was looking for a winch plate. Definitely want a raised one but I can't seem to find a solid answer so whether I can keep my tow hooks with one or not. Looking mostly at the Smithybilt one. Would I need to get longer bolts or would they work...

So I finally got a car hauler to take my tj on longer trips and I want to put a winch on the trailer just in case. Any mounting recommendations? It’s a wood deck trailer 16x7. Thanks for any advise y’all have

I’m sorry. I like the original front bumper and I’m sorry. However, I need a winch so therefore have been thinking of replacing my front bumper but before I do. Is it possible or smart even, to place a winch on the original bumper or am I asking for trouble?? Also any recommendations on...

Help me decide! This is purely based on when I will receive this. The Smittybuilt x20 10k is 3-5 days out. I can get the Warn VR EVO 10-S today. Both with synthetic line. Is it worthwhile to wait 3-5 days to save $200 or is the Warn really worth it. Please vote. Poll open for 1 day. Thank you!

So, I know that with anything recovery related, it's usually best to source things from a well known, well respected supplier, but what exactly is the difference between something like this cheap rope and this Warn rope, besides a $300 price difference? Quality control? American made +...

If you look at the photos above the bumper kinda rests on a bolt that is attached to the frame I guess. Is the metal plate the Winch is attached too supposed to be bolted to that or is resting on top of it ok?

So I have kept it in the back of my mind for awhile that I want a winch but I need some help figuring out which one. I won't be using it a ton and I would like to obviously pull myself out but also pull another vehicle like an older pickup out. What do yall recommend?

Anyone want a new warn Hawse fairlead? Decided to go with aluminum so won’t need it. Paid $45 but amazon now sells them for $35. Oh well, Selling for $25 now. Comes with hardware still in bag. It’s cast iron.

I just got my first Jeep about a month ago, a 2000 Sahara TJ with 150,000 miles on it. After taking about 2 weeks, we put in a new drivetrain, clutch, and chassis bar. I am looking to make it not only a Jeep that will catch people's attention, but one that will also be suitable for minor...
