Actually it isn't going to be so hard as I originally believed.. Just simply need to get a steel pipe that fits inside the drum and weld it together and it's fixed. Sadly I'm leaving for school Monday morning so it's gonna take a while before I get around to solving the problem.

Well as an update..I have been emailing Warn back and forth for a few days now. We have been going back and forth on everything I need to fix this winch to my needs. Very great support and service gotta give them a huge A+ Sadly however it is correct that the drum will not support a synthetic...

Do you think it would be possible to find a drum for the special edition they released a few years back that had a synthetic line on it? If not I wonder if there is a way to beef it up to allow a synthetic line? I'm very happy about having the winch and I litteraly got it for free...

4 Spidertrax spacers! Tomorrow hopefully will be installing the new tires

So right now I'm running stock. After doing my own research for countless hours. I have finally given in and looked at evo and while trying to stay original and unique I have come to terms with myself because...THIS STUFF IS AWESOME! But now I'm looking at the plush ride coils and wondering what...

Sunset after a good day getting dirty

We always break out the bronco on the 4th
