    Warn, Ramsey, Sherpa... whats the most dependable least Chinese winch

    I get where you are coming from, and I realize some things just are not made here anymore. I am going to avoid it as much as I can because I know the nations ambitious, and I have many friends that have escaped Communist nations, and have had first hand accounts of what that life is like from...

    Warn, Ramsey, Sherpa... whats the most dependable least Chinese winch

    Still no actual hard use. The trip I had planned got pushed back due to a couple sudden side quests. I plan to take it up the hill behind my place when my new battery cables get here to play with it some. I will report that yes my Jeep is running higher engine temps, but it went from the...

    Warn, Ramsey, Sherpa... whats the most dependable least Chinese winch

    Well, a decision was made. I got the Comeup. I called the company and spoke with them a little. Parts and service shouldn't be an issue, if they are at any point needed or do become an issue I'll be sure to inform. So far I like it, but I haven't done any besides mounting and tensioning the hook...

    Warn, Ramsey, Sherpa... whats the most dependable least Chinese winch

    First and foremost I would have to ask which one of your winches has the least amount or 0 parts from China? I don't care if some or all the parts come from other parts of the world, just not China. I have found parts virtually everywhere for the M8000 which is good piece of mind but everything...

    Jeep gives Wrangler 1.5" lift, 35" tires and 4.88 gears..

    I noticed the 4door pickup has more of a high line look to the fenders. Manufacturers are learning.

    I see all that nasty white stuff on the ground so I assume you've had it in the snow, but what about the wet? I live in Iowa, dad lives in Arkansas, a lot of the places that we look at for exploitation or I have already been have watercrossings. I've read that the warn is not at all waterproof...

    Samsung terminated their China manufacturing. As for the rest... "Let me be clear I don't just want an American made winch, I'm OK with that but I'm also ok with one made in the UK, Australia, Brazil, I just want to not support China as much as I can."

    Those comeup winches are interesting. They seem to have been around a while but this is the first I'm hearing about them.

    Let me be clear I don't just want an American made winch, I'm OK with that but I'm also ok with one made in the UK, Australia, Brazil, I just want to not support China as much as I can. That said my bumper actually arrived and I need a winch to put on it before it goes on the TJ. I have been...

    TJ bumper options

    I went with the rock hard full size because of the look that it will have with my Fender flares and it's not made in China which was a requirement. It also looks stout enough to deal with Bambi's mom.. There were a couple other ones I looked at that I liked until I saw where they were made...

    TJ bumper options

    I have been looking at a couple of the higher clearance skid plates as that thing does hang down pretty low. I wasn't planning on tube steps like the jeep in the pic, just armor. To be perfectly honest I don't mind the stock bumper however I have also been accumulating parts to fix the front end...

    Mini rice cooker

    I've always used a small saucepan with the lid. Rinse the rice throw it in and double the water so if you have half cup of rice pour in one cup of water. My problem is everyone wants me to make sticky rice for them now so I have to bring the fancy rice cooker.
