Re: What Size Winch For TJ
The minimum recommended is 8,000 lbs though most of us go with 9,000 or
9,500 capacity (at most). The reason for that is the larger winches
have more reserve capacity and draw significantly fewer amperes at a
given load than a smaller size winch does. In typical heavy loads, a
larger winch can draw up to 100 amps LESS than a smaller winch!
