Ok, so I have some loose change to spend. I weighted my options and winch seems most practical/most useful for the circumstances that may come.
I want to mount the winch in the front lower "grill" area.
SDHQ has a mounting bracket that will fit a Warn 9.5TI or Warn 9.5XP. I am not really looking to spend 2,000 dollars for a winch and all so I am trying to figure out what other winches will fit.
The dimensions for the Warn 9.5TI: 23.1" L. x 6.3" D. x 10.0" H.
The dimensions for the Warn 9.5XP: 22.7" L. x 6.3" D. x 7.7" H.
These two dimensions differ ever so slightly, so finding something that will fit the L and D is the main objective. The height does not matter because the bracket does not account for this.
My Options:
Smittybilt XRC12: 21.15 in. x 6.3 in. x 8.6 in. (might be a bit too short in L)
Recon 10: (LxWxH) 21.75” x 6.3” x 8.6” (a bit better on the size of L)
Smittybilt XRC10 Comp Series: (LxWxH): 21.15" x 6.3" x 8.6
9K Value Series Winch by Tabor (Warn): 22.7 in. x 6.3 in. x 7.7 in.
Rugged Ridge 10k lb: 21.15 in. x 6.3 in. x 8.6 in
Thoughts?
I emailed SDHQ and Wicked to see what winches they know of that will fit their mounting bracket.
