I got a new winch

[Old Dog]

It's not very often I run across a good deal,
but I couldn't pass this one up. I found a mallcrawler
selling this for $400. It looks like it's never been used.

[LongHorn]

Just gotta love those tar babies! They probably traded the rig for a Prius. .

Nice score.

I'll be glad to get rid of the POS smittybuilt I have now.

[Old Dog]

whatdaya want for the smittybuilt?

I'm going to mount it on the trailer, it still works but it's really slow, and it sounds like it's on it's last leg. But it might still pull a car up on the trailer if need be.
Trust me you don't want it.

oh ok

I try to warn guys about the Smitty built winch but I get so many arguments about how good it is, I decided to just let sleeping dogs lie.
I have seen quite a few of them give up the ghost. I use Warn or Tmaxx winches only, used to use Ramsey and a older Ramsey can prick my attention. That find of yours saved you around 7 to 8 hundred clams, good find

myself just traded an old Dana 300 Transfer Case with broken gears and 300 dollars for a 15 year old Warn 8274. Works like a charm. I agree, you want a quality winch? buy american. (or pay $299 for a throw away Harbor Freight piece)

some of those Warns have the Bosch motors that are made in china, still better than the other . My $.02
