Also depends what is the base car and what class you plan to race. As one class wheel base cant be changed.
Must dont mod the wheel base from factory. Unless it started off as a SWB ie FJ40 or shorty GQ etc

I'm no expert on winch comps, but to me, they seem to be very focussed on loose, steep climbs. I would have said that for general off road noodling 100" is ideal, but for comps you might want to be the other side of 110" It will hook up better.

What's a stock GQ LWB? these seem pretty close to ideal?
