im leaving tomorrow for a 10 day class in the OBX so when I get back im gonna get to fixing my jeep including the front driveshaft

Also chinn, I found out that you dont want to pull your winch line out like that. Your brakes on your winch are made only to work when pulling the line back in so when you pull your line out like that so much youre actually working against the brakes and can burn them out. its ok to do it a little if the line gets stuck or if you need just a hair more but mostly you want to disengage the clutch and manually pull it out
