Smittybilt XRC12 12,000 Pound Winch


As we all know, Smittybilt has been around for ages…more than 50 years.  The legend begins with a humble man by the name of Basil “Smitty” Smith.  Smitty is a man who was one of the original lovers of the off road.  It was an age where there was peace in the world at last and as a result of that peace, there were tons of surplus army Jeeps that were being transformed into street machines.  That said, some people – like our man Smitty – saw the potential for the rigs to be used on the trails, dunes, boulders and anything else that wasn’t paved. 

Anyway, Smitty saw that there was a need for various parts and accessories and that those particular products were not being made – by anyone.  He started a small machine shop in his home garage and called it Rock-ett Products.  In this shop he made the parts and accessories that he saw the need for.  His son Tom grew up in the business and when he took it over in the 70s he changed the name to Smittybilt.  They are now a world renowned company that manufactures and distributes more than 2,000 parts and accessories for Jeeps, trucks and SUVs.

XRC12 12,000 Pound Winch

The new versions of the Smittybilt XRC winches have had a thorough upgrade performed on them.  They have had heavy duty features incorporated so that you get both a durability and a performance that is enhanced.  These winches are available with capacities ranging from 9,500 pounds all the way up to 17,500 pounds and as such can get you out of any type of sticky situation that you may get yourself into. 

This winch features a planetary gear with 3 stages as well as a 6.6 hp motor that is series wound.  The gear ratios have been revised so that you get more power for pulling as well as line speeds that will blow your mind.  The winch has been finished with a matte black coating that is resistant to UV rays.  Additionally, all of the hardware is made from stainless steel and the crossbars are made from aluminum.  Put all of this together and you get a winch that will last you nearly forever while looking great!

Each XRC winch comes with a winch controller that is heavy duty as well as a roller fairlead that is 4 way.  You will also get a tow hook made from forged steel as well as a solenoid box that has been redesigned and is able to be mounted in 3 different positions making this one of the most versatile winches around.

Check out this new winch and you will be too impressed to look at anything else.

XRC Bumper Package


There are many manufacturers that make bumpers for Jeeps and each of these manufacturers has a variety of styles.  However, there is one manufacturer that stands head and shoulders above the rest…Smittybilt.  Smittybilt actually has a few various lines of bumpers for Jeeps including the XRC line.

Smittybilt has been in the business of making Jeep parts and accessories for more than half a century and during that time they have earned worldwide recognition for the quality, strength, durability, functionality, innovation and competitive pricing for the parts and accessories that they manufacture.

With the XRC front bumper, the first thing that you will notice is the ground clearance that it gives you.  The raised corners mean that you get the added clearance that you need for the trails as well as greater approach and departure angles.  The bumper is made from a single piece of cold rolled steel tubing that is .12 wall and 1.75 inches thick over the kickers and riders.  The bumper also features a center plate for mounting a winch and it can hold up to a 19 thousand pound winch.  The center plate wraps around the lower cross member and the frame horns.  To finish it all off, the bumper has a powder coat in matte black.  It is covered by a 5 year warranty.

The XRC series also has a rear bumper.  This bumper is also made from a single piece of cold rolled steel measuring 3/16 of an inch in thickness.  This type of steel is incredibly strong and can handle an amazing amount of pressure. 

The rear XRC bumper has a Class III hitch receiver along with 2 double welded D ring mounts.  The rear XRC bumper also has the option of coming with a tire carrier of the swing away style.   This tire carrier features a cam lock system complete with a safety catch.  This allows for the tire mount to be adjusted to whatever angle the user needs.  It also features a billet handle that allows it to be easily opened and locked into place for when you need access to the rear cargo area of your Jeep.

The XRC bumpers made by Smittybilt have been dreamed up, designed, engineered and tested all with the end goal of providing safety and functionality, high quality, durability, style and cost efficiency to customers.  These bumpers are strong enough to be able to handle anything that the rigors of the off road life can throw at them and keep on going.

Smittybilt started as a one man operation in a home garage and now is a worldwide company.  The only way that could possibly have happened is by making the quality parts and accessories that Jeep customers need and the XRC bumper package is a perfect example of that.
