ALso I am presently running Ford hubs. I have a set of Warns I got with the truck, one of them is busted any chance I can return them to Warn and get a new set? I've heard they are lifetime warranty.

They say 1.5 times the vehicle weight. I say skip the overpriced/rated warn and look into a superwinch., most bang for the buck

I had a S2 on a cra trailer that would DRAG(all 4 tires locked up) full size pickups on. it would over heat and shut down ,but give it a few minuits and it would finish doing the job. It was unbelievable

That is unless you regularly pull your self out of frame deep mud then you'll need a 12-15,000# winch.

I doubt I will be pulling my self out of much super deep mud. I am not really hard on anything like that. It mostly is for pulling myself out of snowbanks and other cars also.
