Uhhhhh yeah, 17,770 would be a bit pricey... But what's 16k between
friends, huh?! Meant $1,777... DOH!

Mopar has a Warn XD9000i that's mounted on their Grille Guard for $1,7770!
Seems kinda pricey to me but it looks solid and sharp...

A winch and grille guard are on my "to do" list, but I need to save up some more
fun money first!

Let us know how you make out.

If you orded heavy duty springs then make the dealer replace them.
They didn't lose $3500... Chrysler Corporation did.
