seems too cheap to be true to me?
5.4 ton line pull for less than £250 notes?
cheers

Put a simalar one on my landy 90 12 mths later makeing funny noises then seized. supposed to be water proof, when i striped it down the com was a pile of rust cleaned it up then the clutch went next, same problem. as far as i am concerned you pay for what you get never do it again. 5.4 ton on first spool of wire. pay the extra and get hydrolic

thought mine was cheap at £325, 13k lbs pull. took two recomms off jimmy and farmer l200 off the oc - can`t fault it after a year and regular use at work - wire rope is starting to fray but that is prob inexperience early on.
what make is your winch basil comon name names man!
