I bought one of those HF winches and never regretted it. I'm not one to do a lot of winching though. I sold my CJ to my neighbor and he uses the winch more than I ever did. After 4 years it still works great and pulls strong. It is mighty slow compared to a high dollar Warn but Like I said, no regrets. Would I buy another? No. I'd get one with a series wound motor, probably a Milemarker 9500se. But that's just me. Some folks will tell you Warn is the best and maybe they're right. IMO they charge too much just for the name. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />
