Found a good buy? Had some good service? Found a dodgy product or had dodgy work done. Let us all know. We all want to know about the good buys and warn us before throwing our money away on useless crap!

The thing is bloody awesome, pulled out my mates surf multiple times easily and also managed to get out a swb safari aswell.

give it a few outings first before rating them, all winches are good when they are new, but when they are 1 to 2 years old and draggin 2 to 2.5 ton trucks through 4 foot deep mud for 30 meters or so time after time, that's when ya know they are good.

from memory the body is a copy of the warn, don't know about internals, did you ask if they are rebuildable? eg the ridge rider supercheap ones maybe cheap, might break or might not, but at least you can by all the replacement parts for em.

the 9500 on that truck above is going on 3 years old now still going strong, not bad for 400 dollars.
