Is it still OK with the weak power steering pump?
Did you have to upgrade the steering pump, or was the factory pump good enough?

There is now a 12000lb Milemarker electric winch, if you don't wanna go the hydraulic route.

I'm using the stock power steering pump, and it works just fine.

lion333,

I have bought one but I am waiting on the bumper to arrive to install it. Hopefully this will happen this weekend.

Detonate,

Do you have the 12000 lb winch and have you used it much?

Thanks,
David
Black H2

I went with a 10.5

I see no reason for the 12,000 lbs to be honest with you.

I've used it 3 times I think...
