Well, $#!t
RnnngTrails:
Are you trading it in? Or how much are you asking for it?
skibum:
No need for a winch on a mall crowler but if you really think you need a winch then a 9500 is far too weak for that heavy rig. Min size should be a 12k but a 15k might be your better option.
RnnngTrails:
Bang for your buck, if you're getting a 12000 or 15000, you might as well get the Power Plant HD. At least then you get the 12000 lb winch AND onboard air.
skibum:
The Power Plant series Winches from Warn are a great idea. The only issue I have with them is there so tall that they seem to block the opening to the radiator "Alot". Feel the Engine could run Hot at times. Especially when towing something. I would stick with some sort of onboard Air system & go with a Low Profile Series Winch. Turbo Diesel's rely on the Turbo intercooler (Witch is in front of the Radiator) to cool the Hot intake charge from the Turbo's. The cooler the Intake charge = more Hp. Just my 2 cents.
Swagger:
Wow, i totally agree with, everything!!!

I'm selling it. Asking $10k, hoping for $8750-ish. The only thing i really have going is the low mileage. 59,XXX as it sits.

Um, duh. The whole point of building a mallcrawler is to bolt on a bunch of crap that i dont need. What part of winch + 20" rims didn't you understand. ;D

Go big, or Go home. Probably gonna try to find a delicately used power plant to stuff in the bumper, and it will sit low enough as to not restrict the air flow. But i also did think of doing a permanatley mounted, in tool box OBA w/tank, hidden out of harms way, next to the Fitch Fuel Catalyst, along with the Bullydog propane tank. Like i said, overkill, and lovin it.
