Hey everyone, looking at possibly getting a winch for the XJ. What lb strength should I get? Harbor freights got a killer deal right now on a 9000 lb winch, would that do the trick or would that be over kill for the XJ?

You want a winch that is at least 1.5x the weight of your vehicle. On an XJ, 9,000 lbs is perfectly fine.
