Winch question-warn m5000???
I can get my hands on a free Warn m5000 that was never used on a vehicle, it was used to pull a bulkhead in a pool; however, it was not used very long as they could not figure out a system to integrate it with. My question is would it be worth throwin on my truck? I know a 9500lb winch is optimum for our trucks and an 8000lb works very well too. I know its a couple thousand pounds under but its free and maybe I could use it until I could get a better winch? Thoughts? Opinions? Experiences? Throw 'em out there!

For free? I'd say take it. Its better than not having anything, and it would even help in conjunction with a come-a-long or a tug from a buddy. Get yourself some snatch blocks as well.

Yeah I was thinking that it might burn up. I think I may grab it and try it out and if I get one use out of it, it was free and it saved me once lol I probably won't get it hooked up for a while since I'll need a front bumper and I'm in school right now and have no money. Or maybe I could sell it for a hundred bucks and put that towards a better winch.
