Daystar makes a pretty Cool winch isolator, but ive read that it might need trimming for the Engo fairlead.

A while back I installed a 2.5" coil spring lift, but I used shock extensions at the time since they were still new. The ride is a good bit stiffer, and I had a guy who installs lift kits all the time tell me that I really need beefier shocks to better match up with the stiffer coil springs. He...

Just curious if anyone else battles the never ending paint touch up where the winch hook and shackles are. I try to maintain the bumper but im guessing this area is impossible to keep painted. Either the winch hook itself rubs on shackles or the winch hook pulled tight will cause d ring to rub...

Installed my winch and it says to leave disengaged when not using. When disengaged spool wants to birdnest as there isnt much tension. Does anyone leave theirs disengaged and how do you keep the cable from unraveling...? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using WAYALIFE mobile app
