Re: CAR TRAILER WINCH Rocommendation
Their website is still up.
I've had 3 of the S400 in 3 different trailers and keep going back. The last one I got was from Amazon and it must of been on a shelf a long time cause I couldn't gt the twist and curl out of the cable. I replaced the wire cable with synthetic rope I got from Mean Mother off road supplies through 3P Connect in Cucamonga, CA.

They were sold to a company in CA and they are not up and running yet. I purchased a S-5000 with the nylon rope and I am very pleased with it over the cable.

I know they're pricey, but WARN continues to be
the most used by offroad pros. Bob |

Re: CAR TRAILER WINCH Rocommendation
Warn are the best and I have used them forever on my Jeeps.
However, In my trailers last 10 years I have used Harbor Freight 12,000 Lb. They are usually $399 but last week when I was shopping there...they were on sale for $279.00 (often on sale) They do not get near the use in the trailers and I usually get 8 to 10 years out of them and when they wear out.....I just throw them out. They usually work longer than I keep my trailers since my son is in the trailer business and I trade mine in every three or four years.

Re: CAR TRAILER WINCH Rocommendation
thanks guys for the post.
Found out that Super Winch went out of business and sold the rights to Westin. I have purchased a Comeup 4500 SI winch with remote. told this company has good customer service. some of the feed back is good. We will see. Thanks again Bob Lasko |
