Which Winch Brand Is Best

Hoping I can get some opinions/reasons on which winch brand and size would be best for a 1st gen 4Runner. Leaning toward Warn 8000 and WabFab front bump. Should I consider any other winch brand or size?

wait and see who answers first... wabfab or the other guys.

just kidding, can't help. When I need a winch there's usually a cathead on the truck up the road.

Take a look at this thread. Post number 22 seems to have a lot of information.

Warn, Mile Marker, Smittybilt are all built in the same plant using the same parts between them. Smittybilt has the cheapest 8000lb winch, i paid around $275us from winchdepot.com
