Or of course if the load is constant it will halve the strain / current draw on the winch.

And you will need double the rope length 😂
is it worth getting a winch with a higher rated line pull? I know a 8-10000 will pull a JK no worries but would a 12000 actually be better as the motor isn't working as hard? Thanks everyone for your responses so far. I am a complete noob in this department and appreciate all the feed back so far. I think I'm leaning more towards the smittybilt at this stage due to the higher water rating
