Is steel truly that bad?! I get the weight and safety part, but for my needs (keep in mind my wheeling isn’t crazy hardcore or very often due to kids, work and life LOL) I feel like it’ll work, is strong, and is more in my budget. Plus the maintenance and possible fraying on rocks, trees, etc on synthetic seemed more. Would have loved to have gotten something lighter for sure but truly for what I do $500 or more definitely wasn’t worth it, for me at least. The one that was cheaper and synthetic I didn’t feel confident in. This seemed like a good option, great reviews, works well, not the newest version but I’m ok with that... the weight difference was abut 15 pounds so not horrible. For those who are using steel are you happy with it when you’ve used it and when it’s just hanging on your bumper? Mine arrives tomorrow so I’m hopeful I’ll like it and the weight will not be overly noticeable Is it relatively easy to switch out to synthetic should I choose that route eventually?Again first winch purchase, just trying to understand more! Thanks!
