Anyone know if 80ft of 3/8 synthetic winch line will fit on the M8000?
That should fit, 100' of 5/16ths is what comes from the factory so about 85' of 3/8ths will fit.
And please don't try to shove 100' of 3/8 on there. It will fit on a straight and perfect spool in so many people say "Hey - I can fit 100' on here!" but as soon as you get into a side pull situation you are going to be hating it as the rope will bunch up on the close side and if you don't catch it soon enough will bind up and possibly damage your winch and line. Best case you will have to do a ton of short pulls and reset every few feet, especially if the vehicle you are recovering is close to you.
