FYI: The 17.5k has steel not synthic line. Also, it is fairly large and may not fit some bumpers.

Nice winch, buddy had one on his TJ.

Having a 17.5K winch is great, but know the WLL of all your other equipment. Most bumpers/winch plates are rated to 10K lbs.

Nice!! So did you ever replace your fuse with a 500 instead of a 100?
