6000lb winch

Post by Jordi » Sun Dec 09, 2012 10:39 pm

Think it'll be any good? Its not a warn or a superwimch. And its cheap.

Anyone got any experience with them? Or the champion winches?

Cheers

I'd personally spend a bit more on a 'branded' winch

I want this for the front of my SJ http://www.electricwinchshop.co.uk/cp00028.html if you add plasma rope they weigh around 20kg :rockin: who needs miles of winch rope anyway! You can always keep a real of rope for an extension in the back of the truck!

Oh and then one of these in the back :brows:

Thats a bargain Scottie. Always said I wont fit one due to weight. Now very tempted!

I'll have to work out how big a winch is needed. That one does look tidy. Got that on ebay watch list too.

I dont want too big a winch. So i'll work out max winch required and see whats available.
