Default Warn VR-8s - beach enough?

I'm planning on buying an 8,000 lb winch.

do you all think this is heavy enough? I like the Warn VR8S for 3 reasons: price, unit soe and I real weight of the winch with the synthetic rope.

Will 8,000 lbs cut it? Jeep is basically all stock.

Yes, 8000 lbs will be fine.

Rule of thumb is 1.5x your vehicle weight. At 8000lbs youre nearly double.
