Winchw

Warrior apache 13000lb anygood?? Thinking of getting one cheers

I use the warrior 9500HS and quality is good for a medium brand winch, I stripped it when I bought it and it has good internal features, however it is claimed to be a warn direct copy, whereas some warrior winches will be of the Chinese design

The brake is THE most important thing on cheap winches, if it has a sealed drum and warn type brake it will be nearly as good as a warn, if not it is just another one of the runners up.

Try to compare the blurb on the winch you're looking at with the 9500HS blurb and see if any of it is shared, the HS is warriors top performance lowline winch and is aimed at entry level challenge use, thus it has decent internals, some of the others have the gearing to make a good pull on paper but in real life are shocking to use.

Hope that helps

Will make sense when i understand it haha
