Well I purchased a Warn VR12,000 from GOWARN.com. Thought I was dealing with them directly, but I was contacted by 4wd parts today who apparently handles Warn customer service. Big mistake WARN. Those people are clueless and have no customer service skills. They refussed to ship to my work address even though it is an approved address with my bank on my account. I cancelled my order.
Looks like I will be holding off on a winch until I can find a company or resaler that isnt 4wd parts, and that has decent customer service.

I do not know if it will fit in your application, but I have a Tuff Stuff 12500lbs winch that I use as a rear winch. I had it on my previous truck, and after 4 years of use, I cant say anything bad about it. I got it from a company called TruckandWinch.com, you can buy direct from the website or from their ebay store. The winch is $275 with the wiring harness and snatchblock. They are only about a half hour from me, so when i bought it, the owner met me at the shop on a sunday morning so I could pick it up and not pay shipping. They also have other brands of winches, but it might be something to look into.

Dang man! Thats cheap for a winch with that much capacity. I've never heard anything about Tuff Stuff winches so I'm going to start researching, it'll be a lot easier to convince my wife to let me buy one at that price than others. And it will make it easier to afford a better bumper too.

I did all four of my balljoints last summer w/ xrf bjs. Nobody had carlis in stock and eta was a big question. Now 8k miles later my passenger upper joint is already showing play. Carlis this time!
Im surprised you had to resort to a sledge. Did you put a socket on the bolts after you loosened up halfway or so, and then used the engines powersteering?

Dynatrac ball joints are the way to go just as good as Carli's and less expensive. I have them on my truck.

Joe and Pablo @ www.ntgracing.com in Santee have installed many Dynatrac's and a few Carli's. Zero issues with either from the owners who thrash their trucks in the desert. I've seen both company's offerings firsthand and they are stout.
