So what do you think.....

agent orange · 10-22-07, 02:53 PM

Im trying to decide what the next big purchase for my rig is gonna be. Im waffling between 30 splines and a m8000 warn. If i sell my pig inners the cost will be about the same (500ish). I feel like if i knew i could really powerbrake it and beat on the front end i could get further, but i know that if i want to run the hard stuff a winch is mandatory.

So what do you guys think? Ok, so im really asking how tired are you guys of winching me out of stuff, and will you continue to put up with it

.

nweiv_78fj40 · 10-22-07, 03:21 PM

agent orange · 10-22-07, 04:11 PM

So pickles and ice cream maybe? Im not really in tune with the pregnant lady tastes.

Congratulations BTW, is this your second?

agent orange · 10-23-07, 11:44 AM

matzell · 10-23-07, 01:19 PM

Matt,

I might just have a 8274 for sale as well. Either that or my xd9000i. I will need to sell one of these soon.

nweiv_78fj40 · 10-23-07, 01:40 PM

agent orange · 10-23-07, 01:43 PM

Haha, yeah doesnt anyone else have one?

Competition is good for the buyer haha. Hey norm i can trade you some stock 62 bumpers, never been wheeled.

76FJ40 · 10-23-07, 03:17 PM

Here you go -

I would rather buy a winch from someone I know (like Rob) than a stranger.

Yeah, me too, i figured it was worth looking into though.

matzell · 10-25-07, 01:52 PM

Matt,

When do you want to pick up the 8274? You can check it out while it is still on the 40 if you want.

Rob

nweiv_78fj40 · 10-25-07, 03:20 PM

Yeah....you know you would rather have the XD9000. It's smaller and would look better on the 62.....

matzell · 11-09-07, 06:15 AM

Matt,
I sold the Landcruiser last night with the winch attached so it looks like you need to talk to Norm about the one he has. Good luck. I will see you next week. Remember we can all carpool up from Ashland.
