Default Good Deal on a Replacement Winch Rope?
Anyone know of a good deal on a replacement winch rope? I've got an Engo 9500lb winch and I think it is time to replace the rope. It is still serviceable after 10 years, but has some minor fraying, so I think it is time.

Anyone know of a good deal right now on good quality rope? It's not a rope that will face constant use. Rather, it gets fairly rare use as the JK is not my primary off-roader anymore. It's really an insurance policy these days. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thank you for that feedback. I'll keep their tab open for when they itch needs scratching.

I was looking a little the other day and came up with "Custom Splice" .
Diamond Line 3/8 x 80' (18,000 Break Strength) = $125 (Blue ONLY)
Diamond Back 3/8 x 80' (21,000 Break Strength) = $220 (Looks like a Very Hi Quality Rope probably worth the money) Several Colors
AmSteel Blue 3/8 x 80' (19,600 Break Strength) = $193.99

Some sale prices on new winches can make it almost a no-brainer.

You can look up Warn winch as well, they have been in business for years now. I've checked the internet and the reviews are impressive.
