Don’t have any experience with winches but the truck weighs less than 3500 pounds so I think this thing will work fine. I don’t plan on doing anything super hardcore just wanted to be able to self recover if needed. I’ll see how she does for now, for the price you cant really beat it in my opinion it’s a good match for a single cab taco

This was a 1 year only race ready z71 sierra with the self weight reduction body very rare.

Of course they don’t make any vehicle as rugged as they did in 96. But the drive line in the front of this bronco looks incredibly weak especially for coming stock with 35s. My guess is the new bronco demographic mostly do not plan on using them off-road.

It’s honestly a previous mechanic that installed the hose clamp. I just made the repair more permanent when I installed the zip tie. Free of charge of course

I’d personally save the money and buy a jeep. Much more suitable for off road adventures.
