Not to buy
Piece of junk. After getting bushwhacker fenders and artic inter splach shields. Had a shop install. Had to cut fender and splash plates to fit snorkel. Put on a cold air intake when bought the jeep. Shop called and ask for a part off the stock intake. Seems that k&n snorkel uses the stock intake for intake air filter. Putting a 2 x 4 hole in snorkel system. By passing the intake from above fender. This is like putting a screen door on a submarine, looks good in the sunshine but when it gets wet only keep the fish out. WTF. Manual says to use foam plug when in wet conditions. Live in Washington state and it rains 7 to 9 months a year. Plan to use in the mountains like in water or wet areas. Now wasted money on intake that is a waste but splach plates are ruin. And shop money is down the drain. To remove snorkel and now have to find a replacement.
All this to not cut hole in the hood. No where in details does K&N say anything about using stock intake tube. And I spend 200 bucks above other intakes because it was looking like a well design system. At least AEV web site at bottom of page in red letters says can not be used with after market fenders.

Someone more knowledgeable on the subject than I can chime in here, but I don't think the synthetic winch lines are brand dependent, are they? Can't you use any synthetic winch line? That is a solid winch, I would also just get the synth line, however you have to do it, and rock that winch.

Yes, you can use any synthetic line for any winch. Only difference is the length of winch line that can be spooled. I would match what the winch came with. IE: 100 ft steel cable that came with the winch, match with 100 ft synthetic winch line. You will be good to go and there are many options out there for synthetic lines.

Pretty good week...
Sold Hard top.
Sold NX Trektop.
Traded my black stock full size doors for Mopar half doors in Rescue Green (one of my favorite colors jeep has done, not that it mattered I would have taken them in any color) And I like the look enough I may not even paint them...
Picked up a Premium Twill top from some guy for $400. (brand new, never used off his 18 year old daughters 2015 JKU , that she "didn't like" so she got a new Mercedes...
Considering Retrofit Off-road sliding window kit for soft upper doors...
