:werd:

it's getting time for me to start ordering recovery bits i think. since the wife nixed me buying the plow I figure I can at least buy the front receiver and get ready to do some winch outs from ditches for some cash. hell it'd be kind of nice to make enough to buy the plow next year!

So for someone that would use this less than 5 times a year, is it worth it, of should I really jsut get a warn?

Get the most quality winch you can afford, if you offroad I'd consider it as important as tires

I can agree with that post.

In case some misunderstood... I wasn't trying to claim that the HF winch was the greatest in the world. My goal was to offer a choice. Not all of us can afford a > $600 winch, especially if we're not hard-core wheeling all the time. The same conversation can hold with tires too... sometimes you just have to run with what you have.

Not saying WARN will never fail,they will just like any other mass producded item but not as often as the cheaper winches and you will know at least a WARN will work if you do not use it often and when you need it most.If something does fail with your WARN there customer service is very good and I can vouch for this personally and parts are easy to get.
