Smittybuilt Winch
« on: October 19, 2008, 02:41:20 PM »
Looks like I am in the Smitty club. My wife got me one for my birthday. I guess I need a new bumper to go with it huh. How much are mounting plates?
Well I am a Jk Owner now so don't hate.

Congrats!  It's a decent winch for the price.  Just be careful when you shift the clutch lever from Free Spool to Engaged, and so on.  There is a small pin that holds it in place.  If you muscle it, it will break and your winch is OOC.  As far as a bumper and winch plate, there are several that come in a combo, or the bumper has a plate built into it.
