Well, I am looking at buying a winch to slap on this haus. I don't want to spend $800-1000 on a warn, so I am looking at Smittybilt and T-max right now.
The Shitty Smitty 9500# XRC 6.6hp w/ 100 ft. synthetic line weight 46lbs. and is $465 shipped to me.
The T-max is an 8500# with a 5.5 hp w/100 ft. synthetic line weight 66 lbs and is $466 shipped to me.
The smitty boasts a waterproof rating submersible up to 30 min. while the T-max says nothing of the sort.
Smitty also throws in a lifetime mechanical warranty and 3 year electrical warranty.
I've also got a very lightly used Warm M8000 I can swoop for $400 with no fairlead or line, just the winch and remote comtrol... I am open to opinions or even story's about your brothers baby's grandkids experience...
