winch installed today !
Moderator: hemingray
I have pulled the 3k down to a dead stop in the snow as well (Moonrocks) so everything that's being said here is right on the money.
BTW, the 4k models won't fit on the quad without some modification. They are physically bigger than the 3k and under models. They are made for the UTV crowd.
Haven't seen the 3500 that Scott mentioned, but that sounds like a good idea. I always believe in oversizing when it comes to winches. You might think they're rated for your junk, until it's stuck and suddenly weighs a helluva lot more than 800 lbs.

Just remember,. that 3500# also has a remote. And the price tag is only $50 more than the 2500#.
The 3500# also comes with the synthetic rope.
But what is a snatch block?
I know what a snatch is and I know what a block is, just can't see the two having ANYTHING in common...
But seriously, what is one?

I've been told I joke around too much.
So one day I tried being serious.
Everybody laughed!
