Default Re: winch

Milemarker. Hydraulic or Electric - doesn't matter.

I run a MileMarker 10,500lb hydraulic winch on mine.

If you get it from anyone, make sure you get it from Shawn Smith at Angry Iron Offroad. He will make sure that you get the proper winch bumper mount for it. The Hydraulic has a different set of mount holes than the electric (thanks to MileMarker changing their electric winches to a different batch) and Shawn will make sure you're set on that regard.

I like the Milemarkers only because their winch bumper is flush and doesn't interfere with the approach angle. Also make sure you (at some point in time) convert over to synthetic line and a Hawse (non-roller) fairlead.

Hope this helps!
