        Ya they have some other nock off jack but the high lift is like 20 bucks more and alot nicer. I just need a way to mount a winch now bumpers are way to much money.

          you are never going to need a winch, unless you decide to be a dumbass and drive through a river or some shit. tow points and a hi lift are all you'll ever need for recovery as long as you don't wheel alone.

              ohhh i forgot to add as long as you don't wheel alone.........and do dumbass shit.


              i've never seen a winch do something a tow strap and another jeep couldn't.

                ok im sorry but another jeep will never be as good as a winch at pulling some one out. I could use this winch in winter if my plow truck gets stuck or something winches come in handy.

                  what if you need a side pull and there is only 5' next to you. not enough room for a jeep. i have plenty of instances where i needed my winch for self extrication and the extrication of others.



                  oh and corey i winched you at RC

                    alright alex you win.... but then again you wheel and get into those lovely situations.

                    they do make life easier, but in josh's situation, i feel confident saying there is no need.

                      alex has saved my ass with his winch. i needed a forward pull from the front from a jeep, and a side pull at the same time from alex's jeep parallel to mine using the winch off of a snatch block on a tree to my rear tow point.

                      that was a fun fucking day

                      a winch is something i would love to have

                          like i said

                          there are times where a strap would have made things more complicated and may have gotten me into more shit.

                          but of course, seasoned wheelers know that winches are useless and all you need is a recovery point and a strap

                            Not what i was trying to say.

                            I'm saying I don't think it is the smartest buy for josh to blow 300+ dollars on something that i don't see him using very often(if at all) when he already has financial issues trying to run 33's

                            There are plenty of people on here that would benefit from spending the money on a winch, but imo josh isn't one of them.
