Jeep Parts – Mile Marker Winches
Mile Marker is a famous Jeep parts maker of electric and hydraulic winches for both OEM, aftermarket and military applications. They have been in business for nearly 30 years providing winches for 4×4 vehicles as well as applications for ATV and UTSs. Mile Marker’s main distribution plant and Jeep parts production facility for electric winches is situated in Washington, DC. Their other plant, where they produce drive-train parts and hydraulic winches, is located in sunny Pompano Beach, Florida. Mostly noted for winches, Mile marker started out in business manufacturing other Jeep parts, in particular, lock out hubs for a large variety of vehicles ranging from Jeep CJ 7s all the way to Toyota FJs.
Eric Planer, an employee at Morris 4×4 Center says, “Mounting a winch on your vehicle requires some aptitude and a little bit of heavy lifting. A few Jeep parts may be necessary to mount a winch. The smallest amount needed will be a winch mounting plate. These can be bolted to the front bumper of your vehicle or between the frame if you own a Jeep. Drilling may be needed to mount the plate. There are also Jeep parts companies out there who make front bumpers that have a channel built right into the bumper to mount a winch so a winch plate is not required. After you have the winch mounted some wiring will be needed. Wiring diagrams come with all winches. As an average (less the price of the winch) installation will fall between $100.00 – $600.00.”
There are seveal Jeep parts makers of electric and hydraulic winches besides Mile Marker. A very popular name in the Jeep parts industry is Warn. They offer a big variety of winches including types with air compressors attched to them. Another well-known Jeep parts maker is Smittybilt. The winches they build are more mild mannered for off road enthusiasts who are looking for a winch with one purpose in mind, recovery. One other key aspect that Smittybilt offers along with Mile Marker is a synthetic winch rope. Synthetic rope is a stable substitute to the benchmark steel cable because it doesn’t snap-off when it reaches its breaking point. In addition, for those on a budget, Jeep parts fabricator, Rugged Ridge, has some great products for those in demand of a winch, but who probably won’t be using it much. All of these manufacturers are superb. What makes Mile Marker rise to the top is the fact that they are produced in the United States of America and are used by our armed forces.
All off-roaders should purchase a stable winch. It’s essential for the proper recovery of a stuck vehicle. They are made to pull you up and over obstacles as well as assisting someone else who may be stuck. Not only can you recover vehicles, but these winches will assist you in pulling heavy, otherwise immovable objects off the path and out of everyone’s way. If you explore the wilderness solo a winch will help in the recovery of your vehicle from situations that without one would keep the vehicle stuck. In addition to improving the saving capabilities, a winch is one of the many Jeep parts and Jeep accessories that looks awesome on the front-end of your Jeep.
