I am about to order the steed 17,000 pound winch, however I am stuck between steel cable and synthetic rope. I am familiar with the pros and cons of both and I am also kind of leaning towards synthetic rope. Can you elaborate to me why you chose the rope over cable? I will be putting it on the front of my ram 4500 wrecker inside a peacemaker bumper.

Sounds like an awesome rig. Synthetic rope is much safer and much easier to deal with. If you haven't yet, check out Matt's Off Road Recovery wrecker. He's been running 5 12,000lb winches with rope for some time now. I'll never go back to cable. Thanks for watching!!!
