How big of a winch can I mount to an ARB Bull Bar (air-bag compliant) for my D2? Any ideas? Thanks!

You can mount the warn12,000 and warn 15,000.

You shouldn't *need* anything bigger than a 9000lb winch unless you want to be the "coolest person" on the trail. :)

So will a MM 10500 fit straight into a D1 non-airbag ARB?

No, I'm never sure. What do you want from an IT manager? Aren't we all clueless? :)

I've run my X9 with a pulley block to pull other VERY stuck vehicles but I always fear that I'll pull my crush cans on the ARB even with that setup. I don't think I would like much more than the X9 with a pulley. But then if I was somewhere with few trees and couldn't use the block I *might* want a single line pull and a little more juice in the winch if I couldn't get enough cable off the spool. Still, I don't trust those cans that much and will one day move to one of Johns bumpers.
