Winches

[David Devuono]

Forgot I also have a Superwinch S4500 on a multimount that I have not used in sometime but its set up to connect to a receiver hitch on my trailer. It came with 4x 40 amp circuit breakers wired in Parallel (160 amps?) (Thermal Fuses). They would pop after about 6o seconds of hard winching. I recall pouring cold water on the fuses so I could continue winching. I don't use them anymore but watch closely the winch temperature and cycle times.

Harbor Freight has a 12000 badland winch for 299.00 Remote is always on sale for 25 dollars, and it is wireless. Makes me wish I did not have The costly Warn on my car trailer. The Warn has been nice but 800.00 in my pocket would be handy also. Run heavy trucks and even without a load at 8800 lbs when your stuck its time for a backhoe.
