Looks heavy if you want to move it from front to rear hitch.

 

[schneiderz]

its only about 50 lbs with the winch in it

i don't believe that.... xrc8 w/ synthetic cable has a shipping weight of 63.3 pounds by itself... http://www.amazon.com/Smittybilt-98281-Synthetic-Aluminum-Fairlead/dp/B003CGBN3C/?tag=959media-20

wire cable one has a shipping weight of 86 pounds

interesting idea, i dont think i'd wanna move it back and forth though.

Its prolly 50lbs dry weight...

Soo....50#s + ~80#s = $130lbs...I like it but its heavy as SHIT. Plus the price is INSANE. Add the extra $55 for handling on TOP of the shipping, you could amost have a winch for the price.

That's what I built this for. I wanted front/rear winching capabilities...Have to build a cradle next I guess..
