Coming in your ears.
9000lb minimum, but IMHO if you're buying a budget winch a 12000lb will do you better cos they have a larger gearbox usually.
Been covered many times BUT it's still worth buying quality second hand than new ****.
And definitely buy synthetic rope where possible, far far superior.
Cheers

yes agree with you on that but worked out quite good as these are a class winch and was lucky that was able to change cable as we make our own in work so was changed when i fitted it and seems to work very well as same as a super winch but lots cheaper lol

have used this winch in the recovery trade and always been a good tool to work with . have you had problems with this brand ??
always found they have a good spare parts back up and never had a failure if looked after well . but this is from a pro series as know they have a budget range as well but not sure what they are like ??
