That makes very little sense. Those same welds need to withstand all the pressure of pulling an 8000 pound vehicle out of the mud..... But they will not hold a 100 pound winch on the front of the vehicle for long periods...

Our fire department had the 9.5i on the front of thier truck and it stays there all the time, and that truck is used hard. no issues....

I think that guy at warn.... well, its hard to find good help....
