I am looking at both the SMittybilt XRC 8000 and 10000. I can ge the 10000 for $359 + shipping and I can get the 8000 for $269 + shipping. I know the 8000 is about minimum for a TJ but is it large enough for an XJ?

find the closest 4 wheel parts. they match prices. that way you can save 50 on shipping.

shipping at winchdepot.com is only $10 my concern is the 8000 enough?

I was just told on another site the TJ is heavier than the XJ? is this correct?

When winching you don't want it to stall. That will burn any of them up. If you have doubt about the winch pulling you out, (like buried to the doors) it’s better to use a pulley block.

when you are winching the weight plays a role in it, but you also have to figure how much muck you are dragging and suction also, and its easier to pull something on falt ground as opposed to up a rock face or out of a notch. moral of the story go overkill on it you and the guys you save will thank you for eternity
