Eh, seen a locked xj get stuck... way worse than if he was open/open.

But really if we keep wheeling as a group, we need more recovery assets. Not hey look i got stuck and spend the rest of the day trying to ****** out.

I plan on getting a winch right after I get the bumper to mount it on.

Its personal preference on solid/metallic/pearl/candy/glow in the dark/color shift/ temperature sensitive paint. You tell me what kind of color you want and I can find it.
that other site helped. i dont wanna do black unless i do it myself. if you do it, its either midnight blue or gray 1204.

The Badlands winches that HF carries now have been touted rather highly.

BUT, for the same price you CAN get name brads...Rugged Ridge is carrying one now in the price range, and then there is the XRC8.

Alex...I am liking the price on that OD green single stage on the site you linked up.

Can you take a single stage and make it flat?
