Winches
i've got an 87' Ranger and I'm just about ready to slap on a winch but I'm not sure what I really need. I'm not going to be doing a lot of difficult off-roading, but I want it there if I really need it. Also, is there a brand that anyone has had more luck with than other brands? What sort of problems do people usually run into in using a winch? What sorts of accessories would I need to purchase? Please give any other information that you might know of. Thanks

For a new kit, Warn could likely be the way to go because their Combo Kit Winch Mount is specifically designed to work with older-model vehicles. It also inlcudes grille and brush guards. Check out our Winch research guide for some more insight.

I have a Mile Marker 8000 lb winch on my 90 Bronco II. I purchased it from Summit. It was quite a bit cheaper than Warn or Ramsey. Im sure it probably isnt as good as either of them, but for mild use ,mine has been great. No problems what so ever. If im pulling something very heavy or hard I like to use a block.
