good luck with the USA build.......
Smittybilt are popular and budget priced.........
Warn.......? Made in China also. ?????
Steel rope vs synthetic rope ? Steel rope models are 35+ lbs heavier...but less $$
I added a Smitty 9500# steel rope to my Taco SB DC......$270 6 months ago
Not a high use item......but better than he one I didn't have.....used ARB bumper also
ARB is winch ready.......Your mount ? Most have a 10' remote too......
