winchs
I was wondering what you guys or gals think of the Quadratec Q series winch? i am looking at the 9000. i was just looking feedback. i really need a winch and do not have a lot of extra cash. any input would be great, thanks.:bang::help:
|
It's a rebadged winch. Plus Quadratec is a H**p company. Run away.....
I think several others use the same winch with different paint and badging. Not saying it's bad winch, but you could prob find it cheaper elsewhere... It's a Chinese made winch (whatever that may mean to you), even stated by Quadratec in their forum threads. |
Nobody ever has the money to spend on mods.....

Quadratec = J*** = sucky sucky

How about smitty built?
|
I'm researching this as well... On top of watching CL......
I've seen so much conflicting info on this... "Warn is best", "Smitty's are best".... I would think Warn has the best rep, no? My buddy had a milemarker(he's up in the Sierras for years)...... It crapped out on him when he really needed it... And in a pinch and short on cash, he grabbed a Harbor Freight 10K pound one.... He's had it 6 years, uses it all the time,.. never had a problem. He just keeps it covered/coated with some anti rust and such.... Swears by it. It was supposed to be an interim thing until he got enough saved to just grab a WARN(which he agrees are probably the best bet on warranty/durability, etc.)... But he hasn't been able to kill the HF one just yet... so why bother? He paid 340$ for it with cover with a super sale online only thing with HF, and 20% off on top of that? I AM NOT saying the HF winches are a great alternative... know nothing bout them really. Just sharing that a buddy I KNOW HAS ONE on his rig has been just fine with his, that's all. Wabbit............. Whatcha think about the Nylon cable styles? |
I have found with China built electrical equipment it either seems to work great and lasts or it fails within the first few days or weeks.
I have no clue about winches as far as warranties and getting parts if it is like the welders good luck. |
I did some looking in to the 12000 pound HF winch, a lot of good reveiws, i think i will try it.
