Yeah that was my question. The GVWR is around 7150-ish. Are you really running at 25% over GVWR??

It ain't hard. Steel bumpers, skids, winch, rack, full size spare, etc.

I haven't weighed mine lately, but it is over 8K, without a doubt.

So I ended up with a Smittybilt winch. We are having some issues trying to fit it. Anyone used this setup and could give me some hints?

where are you having trouble? You may need to clock either the motor or clutch or both to make it fit how you want in the bumper. From the factory they usually come set up for a “feet down” install so need some adjustment for a “feet forward” install.

That is kinda crazy. I thought I had been really heavy before. I have ARB Summit, full T44 skids, rear bumper with dual swings, rack... and I was fully loaded up for a week+ camp.

7,540 lbs on the scale.
