--- Quote from: "Topple" ---A few questions

Make ?
Spec ?
Reliability Record ?

There are a lot of cheap winches around at present some better than others, I've heard a few horror stories.

Buyer Beware !

Don't forget warranty !   I've dealt with 2 people this week already who bought "bargain" winches and then had to shell out a ton more money because of get-outs in the warranty.    Buyer beware indeed.

davidlandy:
I beleive that you should buy a quality item and 'go prepared' to spend that little bit extra.

its pays off in the long run, I reckon

keithdixon:
I have had a lot of iterest in these winches, i am still looking into the import tax issue, (don't want to get bitten)

I'll come back to you all when i have the customs issue sorted
