Okay.. No matter what, a good deal.
I still have my doubts if it's genuine Dyneema. But for a little Jimny it'll probably do just fine
BTW. Make sure the rope is correctly spliced around the thimble. I have seen some ropes (also Dyneema) where only the end of the rope was put around the thimble and then into the rope itself. Hope this makes sense.

Just out of interest. does it actually say Dyneema on the rope?
It pretty easy to feel the difference between a true Dyneema rope and a cheap Chinese copy.
No it doesn't appear to say it on the rope, only on the Superwinch box it came in.
I wouldn't know the difference personally.
