Re: which winch??

i would steer away from mile marker.  There customer service is junk.  I bought mine.  They told me I had a year warranty on it.  First the cable broke one of the first times I used it, and I was pulling straight on flat ground in a toyota on 31's.  Definitely shouldn't of broke.  They said they wouldn't warranty that because it was due to abuse.  A bunch of BS.  Then the computer went out on it and it wouldn't winch in or out.  Brought it back and they said they wouldn't warranty it because they no longer made that model.  I would never recommend anyone to buy a mile marker.  Go harbor freight if you want to save some money.  They at least stand behind their product.  

i had great customer service through mile marker.  i had my winch for a year before i even opened the box, put it on used it alot for the first couple months pullin anything i could hook it to.  one day hooked to something turned it on and it wouldnt do anything.  called customer service told them what happened, they told me they didnt make my model anymore so they sent me a completely new updated elect box for it, control, cables, hat and all, everything that comes in the box besides the actual winch, they could have told me shove it lol.  theres good and bad to em all i would think but they more than did me right, and the price versus a warn of equal size, didnt fit my budget, if i had the money i wouldve went with a warn no doubt, but i cant say one bad thing about the mile marker.
