Warn Evo 10S -- is 10k pound Evo synthetic more than enough winch for me?

[TNcoupe]

I got in on the preorder for the BAMF bumper and they are running a Warn Evo winch in theirs. I have a 2dr ordered so my question is will the 10k pound Evo synthetic be more than enough winch for me? Its been a hot minute since Ive been hot and heavy into the off roading so Im sorta out of the loop.

I've got a Warn Zeon 10S sitting in my basement waiting on my ADD bumper. The 4 door Wildtrak comes in at around 5300# and I feel the 10S is a perfect match. The 8S would probably work also, but I just didn't want any questions when I go to use it. Your 2 door will be lighter, so the 10S is plenty for you.

Thanks. I looked at the Zeon but the Evo has a lower profile and fits down in their bumper nicely.

Do you have a link to that BAMF bumper?

Have you talked to BAMF about this bumper? They do good work, but the solenoid was relocated, which is fine, makes a shorter profile. The Zeon or Evo will be very similar in size once you relocate the solenoid. Zeon supposed to be built here, Evo built elsewhere, if that matters.

Thank you for that information. It is much appreciated!

I got the solenoid relocation kit with the bumper. I will look at the Zeon S. I assume it has the same mounting bolt pattern as the Evo?

Good deal on the relocation kit. Yes, same bolt pattern.

Looks like I ordered the kit that only relocates it an inch forward but still on top of the winch. It will be ok sticking up a bit or I'll figure out where to land it somewhere.

I'm leaving mine in position for the time being on my ADD bumper. My wife gets motion sick, so I'm thinking I won't even use my front camera due to the movement.

I got standard package so no front camera for me. I just like the look of it tucked down in the bumper.

The 10k winch will be perfect for the Bronco, and like someone else said even the 8k will get the job done. The 10k gives some extra capacity for any really long and hard pull. I have 8k Warn winches on a couple of vehicles and they are totally fine. Plenty of friends with 8k winches on Jeeps and no issues.
