Are guys in the eastern rusty climates seeing these seize up like the 100 Series variants did/do? The 200's use an "open" design with a chain link hoist that lets debris and perhaps most importantly salt be washed out whereas the 100 has a cable hoist that has a plastic cover that let's them get packed full of junk. I've got a pile of 200 cross-members and hoists here left over from aux tank and rear bumper installs and they all function smoothly. Yet it seems every other 100 one we pull off is seized or a PITA to operate. Is it a design "upgrade" or simply age based? On that note, anyone have a need for some 200 crossmembers/winches before I offer them to the 100 guys to retrofit
