Welcome to OB, Wyatt! I use my GX460 as my daily driver too.

Just finished installing a Smittybilt X20 Gen2 10K Synthetic Line Winch on Pearl. It went really easy and smooth. Will be editing a new video next weekend to talk about why I went with the LFD Hybrid Bumper and the Smittybilt Winch for the 2010 GX460. If any one has any questions, let me know...

Welcome Tom and Carrie!

Well, it was a tough decision, but I decided to go with the Smittybilt X20 Gen 2 Synthetic rope Winch. Amazon is listing it now for $599 with free Prime shipping. It should arrive soon!!! I decided the better warranty, better hardware used, integrated wired/wireless controller, longer syn...

I also have been trying to determine the synthetic line max rating for the Smittybilt X20. I am not 100%, but it appears that the synthetic line on the Smittybilts are rated to what the winch model max is. If someone has the info on the X20 Comp line, please let me know. The line on the Zeak...

@Eventyr_jt - Smittybilt X20 winches come with a 5-yr Electrical, and Lifetime Mechanical.

Thanks to everyone who replied to this thread. Lots of great help/advice. Have any of you had experience with Zeak Winches? I think the 13000 lb Premium Winch has some nice specs which include: 3/8" x 86' Synthetic line rated at 23K Nicer Clevis hook / heavier duty than most in this price range...

Hi everyone, I just added a front hybrid bumper (LFD) to my GX460. Looking now to add a winch. I am leaning toward a Smittybilt 10K or 12K X20 COMP Gen2 Synthethic. My question is - when & where is the best time to get a deal on one of these in the new few months so I have it for this summer...

Welcome @Stefaniskasaurus

Hi Everyone. I just finished the video on the install of our LFD Front Hybrid Bumper. Enjoy!

Finished the install today. Pearl now has her new LFD Hybrid Front Bumper. The next step is to add a winch! Will be making a video of the install soon for YouTube! Stay tuned, if interested!

Hi Everyone, I just received my new LFD Hybrid Front Bumper for my GX460. It has two recovery points built into it (.75" Thick Steel with a 1.03" Dia hole for the Shackle bolt. I have some shackles, but I think they they fit loose as they are 1.25"W with a .88" Dia bolt. (Measurements taken...

In case anyone is interested... I just did a short unboxing video of the new LFD Hybrid Front Bumper for the 2010-13 GX460. Well packaged and the bumper is of very high initial quality. I also weighed it - 90 lbs with all hardware (85 lbs without hardware). Hope to install it next weekend. Cheers!
