That's why I got the HF winch but I might replace with synthetic cable soon. They now carry 12k lbs Badland winch.
I may do that to mine also. I'll probably pay the prorated amount to upgrade to the 9.5k winch.

rough country has done alot of work to build up their reputation in the past couple years. that being said i dont think they would start marketing a p.o.s. winch to set them back. its not a warn but it will work for the average weekend warrior. and im sure that they will tell you that over the phone when you call to order one. every rc guy i have ever spoken to on the phone has always been a straight shooter.
. I have run a winch on my rig forever and if I’m not in Asuza, daring folks to go through the lakes of mud,.
Are you running a synthetic or steel line?
I kinda dig the Deaver sticker with the ruff country winch..
I don't quite understand 'budget' recovery equipment. It is always a crap shoot whether it will work when you need it or not. Sure they are expensive but when you need them they are worth every penny. I never have heard anyone say 'I spent too much on my winch' but I always hear 'I should have got an nicer winch'. :lecture:
I am glad the Fire department doesn't cheap out on their recovery equipment. :looney:
