Only thing is, your can't put a winch cover on. There isn't enough room. So if you run a synthetic winch line it could prematurely age in environments.

Or in our case, freeze & become a sob to pull out.

Other than the winch cover issue are there other reasons to not run a recessed winch? It seems like on my Tj it gets a lot of road crap sitting on top but I am running cable. Thanks for any opinion as I am leaning recessed on my JL but have not pulled the trigger yet.

Thanks man. My only issue is the Hauk rear tire arm mount. My installer is having to brainstorm ways to keep the tire from bouncing around. At first I thought it was the installers fault but i've read where others have the same issue. I think there's a major flaw in the engineering of their tire arm:/
