Default Good idea.

This is a good idea. I'm already wishing I would have done that. Wondering what the winch in going to do with my front end. The BB leveled it out but I'm worried about the winch pulling it back down.

Get the 12,000! No overload / heat problems when winching; you have a heavy vehicle! I have one and a steel bumper with a 4" lift.
