smittybilt bumper and winch?

[97_TJ]

I was just curious if anyone has had or knows anyone that has had the XRC bumper or the XRC winches. I know they seem to get great reviews, however i remember seeing alot of old rusty smittybilt tube bumpers around? Any insight would greatly help my decision making.

Thanks,
Nate

I have the xrc8 and have no complaints.  I bought the unconditional life-time warranty from 4wheel parts.  They told me if i crashed my rig to box up what I have and they will send a new one. They don't repair them.

Thats the one i'm getting so it sounds like everyone has had good luck w/ it. I'm putting it on the XRC bumper which should look good, just always nice to have owner's input on their experience. Appreciate it.

My rear bumper on my XJ is a Smitty Bilt and I have the XRC 8000 on my XJ and I have worked my winch quite a bit. LArry Ghost on here has the XRC 10,000 and he WORKED his one day at Flat NAsty dragging around a 79 3/4 Chevy with 2 broke hubs, and it never balked.
