TomWood Posted March 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2015 Just ordered a kinetic recovery rope :) http://www.asroffroad.com/7-8-kinetic-recovery-rope/ Edited with new rope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eastcoastcam Posted March 4, 2015 Report Share Posted March 4, 2015 Like i said in the other thread, Tom, that rope is too big at 1.25". Save yourself some $ and change it to 7/8". Overkill on size here will not yield the proper effect of the rope where your Jeep is so light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derekmac Posted March 4, 2015 Report Share Posted March 4, 2015 And also make sure they send it via USPS, not UPS. UPS will charge around $60 for brokerage fees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

autumnwalker Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 Tom you will love that winch; I had many years of great service and abuse. It's still out in the wild today after some minor repairs by Scott T. and again by Scott E. I forget who has it now. I want another WARN winch, but the cost of the "big boy" winches are staggering.

Eastcoastcam Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 Its still working quite well. Got some use last weekend. Of course! It's on a Nissan ;) lol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRUXterra Posted March 6, 2015 Report Share Posted March 6, 2015 Of course! It's on a Nissan ;) lol! I saw the vid where it recovered a Heep as well James. I have to laugh that this "afore-mentioned" winch is becoming the wh0re of BC4x4...there is another on a forum that I belong to that has changed hands 8 times; not a Warn, a Smitty built that now has a premium attached to be the next owner!
