Put a synthetic line on the winch to save weight and it will be a lot safer then a steel cable. After some of the failures and injuries(deaths) from broken steel line or mounts, I will never use them again.

 

So this is what I'm looking at. LoD signature shorty front bumper weighting 75#s and a Smittybilt X2O waterproof 10k synthetic winch weighting 64#s. So I think I should be good and I'll measure before and after to see how much sag I get and adjust from there.

 

Just put on LOD midwith and same winch. Have. AEV 2.5 lift. Put on 1/2 coil spacer

 

Did you happen to note how much sag you got from it? And did you order directly from LoD or go through someone?

 

You should get around 1/2" sag for every 230 pounds of added weight. Typically coil rates are 200-250 pounds per inch

 

Just get stiffer springs to compensate the added weight.
