Screw that! The best way is to spend the winter in Puerto Rico!
RazorB....a 9,000 lb. winch is plenty. Check with Digglesworth on the Smittybuilt winch. He got one that would activate itself. I guess they sent him a fix for it but, it sort of scared me off buying a new one. I actually need two winches, and Smittybuilt was my first choice. But after seeing DW's issue...I went to 4WP and inquired if the ones they had for sale, had the remote disconnect switch built into the controllers. Of course I got the DITH look. (deer in the headlights)....so I'm pretty much done with 4WP. I think they are the exclusive dealers of the X20 series, so if you want a SmittyBuilt I think you must deal with 4WP. Looks like ENGO!
Lastly...I always wanted to see a red H3 with color-matched mirrors and door handles.
