Its hard not to consider the cheap gear but when its your arse or truck thats on the line you cant go past quality equipment

......it comes down to what value you put on your truck?

I would look on Trade me. you should be able to pick up a good named brand winch for under $1000 that is in good nick. (over 8000lbs)

here is something i found. may be too expensive though.
