there are a few winches for sale around my area

ramsey pro plus 8000-- $350 obo
smittybuilt xrc8 (new)-- $275 obo
warn m8000-- $400 obo

i don't know too much about brands of winches. i do know that warn is a reputable name... also not too sure about the prices

any help appreciated. even if i don't buy one, i'll have a better understanding

k thx bai

 

Am on my phone so searching is a pain, but there is a really good thread on the pros/cons of the smittybilt, pretty sure it was started by 'iamsuperbleeder' in off road tech. Lots of members seem to run them.

If the WArn is in great shape I would say go for that. The price on the smittybilt is around what they sell for new.

 

Ian,
there is a smittybuilt thread around here.
from what i have read, if I(were you) i would buy a used Warn, but not the others. I would buy a new SmittyBuilt, but not used. Just my 2cents i have no experience with any of those...this is just based on what i have read.

 

found the thread. thanks guys. now to read over it

what about the ramsey?
