Today we're installing our new Open Road 4WD 9,500lb Panther 2S winch on my 1993 Jeep Wrangler YJ. It's going to be a lot of fun testing out and reviewing this winch.

Hey man! I found your channel while doing research to see what it would take to make a Jurassic Park Jeep and you have provided some of the best tips that I have found. I recently just purchased a 1994 YJ with an almost spotless frame and only 102,000 miles on it which I cannot wait to convert it into a Jurassic Park Jeep. I am also very excited to see project Emo completed. Keep up the amazing work! God bless!

@SimplyMustGo Жыл бұрын

@@zachawk1575 mine ended up being a combination of two different sets. I found one set a jeep part out place. And another set on Facebook marketplace. I had to mix and match the sets to get a full working set. Because one set was busted and had some rust on one side and so I had to supplement some of the parts with another set. I have a set of the brackets still from one of the sets. If you find yourself needing that.

That actually sounds like a really fun video and there’s some sections of the scar that I still want to do. I don’t know if there would be much in the way of camping along those sections, but we could still make a drive out of it.

Totally did the same thing with the negative lead when I put mine on…and doing the fair lead 1st wouldn’t have helped much, since those bolts were juuuuuuust a bit too long to fit the winch in if they were there 1st.

The hook they supply with their Chinese winch is super weak and very dangerous when it fails. Stick to grocery basket recoveries and you should be fine though. A winch is a very important part of any offroad rig. Going cheap on safety isn’t very smart but hey if other KZfaqrs/paid affiliates do it monkey see, monkey do.
