If I got a new winch id be hooking it up to anything and everything that wasnt bolted down around the home and streets just to play with it lol
I bet you do too!
A few days after i bought my jeep my mom called and said "can you come over so i can see the jeep" and it ended up being i need a few bushes pulled up and brought to the street.
First opportunity I had with my winch, I had the pleasure of dragging my mother-in-law's boyfriend's Chevy Silverado out of my yard when he got it stuck in my creek......
I painted a red Chevy bowtie on the solenoid cover....
For the most part, it's been awesome. However, the creek is a mixed blessing sometimes. It can be very intense when we get a lot of rain. We've experienced class 5 rapids on a few occasions.
I really don't know how to check it, I guess you just look in the warranty book for the specs. I really hope they send you the revamped version to save you the hassle.
Well according to the spec manual i got with the winch...it has.....the ......5.5 hp motor on it..WHOO HOO.
I installed it on Friday night. WORD OF WARNING: IF YOU GET THIS WINCH, HOOK UP THE GROUND WIRES TO THE WINCH BEFORE INSTALLING THE WINCH!!!!SOB/BAST*RD :banghead::banghead:
Nothing like installing a winch, getting everything bolted in, and then figuring out that ground bolt you need to get to is on the frigging bottom of the winch...damn it...
Not yet, have not been on the trail yet with it. But soon....Will keep ya posted.
