actually, Swordy has the M8000 and I have the XD9000. They are the low profiles without that tower on top. Can't go any bigger on measurements really or you risk the wrap ripping stuff out if it rolls up too much in one spot. and I know my winch was heavier than 78 pounds...it was more like 100 pounds...and I do believe that the Warn site measurements were off because when I purchased mine it said it had Identical measurements as the M8000 except a really small fraction longer, but it actually all different measurements and almost didn't fit.
I am very pleased with the Warn XD9000, it pulls older full size Suburbons high centered on a pine tree and roots, no problem ;Dr;
