Default Hydraulic winch
My impending power steering pump failure has got me thinking about replacements.

It appears to be reasonably straight forward and comparable cost to fit a high flow PS pump (higher than stock anyway) and I only ever plan on running 33's so won't really need to upgrade the steering for that. However, it got me thinking that a hydraulic winch might be a good idea in the future if I have a bigger pump, as the main criticism of hydraulic winches is their slower speed and affecting the steering.

Anyone have an Hydraulic winch on their JK?
