Loose control plug?

If it failed with that much out you would probably be better off to remove the winch line at that point. If the solenoid failed and you had the proper tools to access the motor leads you could jump them with cables and reel it back in under power. (Only if the motor was ok and solenoid was the problem)

Rs9500
Hey guys, new to the WAYALIFE. I have any of you heard about the Rough Country RS9500? Runs about $300. Reviews online are 5 stars but how is the quality? Thoughts?

Here's my thoughts:
Now, if you're looking for a winch on the other hand, try this: http://www.warn.com.

Haha. Thanks and Warn will be the way I go most likely. You just can't beat them! Clearly if you read this entire thread.

No matter how bad you want to save money, you don't want to be stuck in an area with no cell service and have a winch not work when you've put your confidence in it.

What came first the boy or the Jeep?
Alright well I have been in the jeep community for about 3 years now. my first jeep was a 1997 TJ that I bought stock and lifted up and built for a fun daily driver. Then one night at a monthly jeep meeting at sonic. A fellow jeeper had his 2003 rubicon for sale I took it for a spin and he had me try out the lockers and everything. Well that was the end of that I have been hooked ever sense. I still have my original 97 jeep and also the 2003 rubi. I live in Nebraska so not much trails around here so we make trips monthly to Tuttle creek in Kansas, a place called the farm in Des Moines, IA, and in the summer we make trips to Colorado. That's just a little bit about how I got into the Jeep life.
