A buddy of mines dad has a 12k warren winch on his jeep. There's been several times we had to call him cause we couldn't get out and its dine the trick everytime but he usually has to anchor to a tree or another truck

I like a winch that looks good and sexy in a small size.  |

8,000 should be enough for a stock jeep. You can get a snatchblock so you can double the power of the winch if need be. Warn is the best brand. If you aren't gonna use it much a smittybilt would probably do the job and they're half the price. Warn did just come out with a new line of affordable winches, but I haven't seen much of them yet.
