- Is a 10k warn winch enough for an 80 (adding rear and front bumpers later) ?
- Can you mount to the stock bumper without much cost ?


Found a deal on one only $600 canadian.. but .. i don't want to get a front bumper for 1000 to save money on the winch *right now*.

10K is more than ample. If you get into a problem you can always run a snatch block! I'd get it!

jump on it

Custom fab work will be required (or a cheap looking warn(?) brushguard winch mount), but get the winch, no use in letting a good deal pass if you know you'll get that winch mounted eventually.

Get the winch and save for a Slee or ARB bumper.

The average loaded 80 weighs around 6k pounds. With a 10k winch you could haul it straight up a cliff side- while it's still attached to the Jeep that pulled you over in the first place.
