Default What winch do i need?

Hi all,


Planning on modding my '12 JKUR this summer and I don't know what winch I'll need. How do I determine this and what are some reliable winches to go with?

The general consensus is that Warn is the best aside from their newer low-end line. Engo seems to be a really good value and that's what I'm running this time around. You're right around $400 for 9000 lbs with synth line.

I was just looking at Engo. Any pros or cons?

I'm either goin Warn ZEON 10 or Engo 10. Those are the best in my book. It will be my 1st winch, so I want it to be right the 1st time.
