Unless you plan on useing a winch alot the 8k is a good choice and they are cheeper the any 10k winch but really its all about your choice and what your budget allows

I used 2 gauge wire run for a amp, to the rear cargo area and used a 2 gauge ground wire and hooked it up back there. Then if I want to add an amp and sub, I will just run it off that battery. I have done this before on my 96XJ that had a winch and it worked great!, Just need a battery vent now.

I also hooked up a Caravan LED factory flashlight in the glove box, recharges so its always ready!

no it won't, the floor pan is flat on the 93 and the front bolts bolt into a raised section of the floor, plus there closer together. i figured a piece of angle iron for the front and stock piece for rear bolts would allow me to bolt to that steel and then to the 95, but waiting to see what insurance co. is going to do before i strip my 93

Pulled the carpet so I can scrub all the mud and crap out of it, then let dry and put back in. Cleaned the floors, found the leak where all the water was coming inand sealed it up. Then covered the hole I had to put in the fender well to service my AC drain port. Now I can see what its doing all the time.
