The above image should have all the basic details of our winches, including pricing and specs.
To provide some additional detail though:
Ironman 4x4 winches are specifically made for Ironman 4x4 in a factory we have a direct relationship with (no these aren't built in Australia). BUT, these are not an off the shelf product from any Chinese factory. Our winches are designed and engineered in Melbourne, Australia (in our Dandenong South HQ) and we tested and proved them out in Cape York before releasing them to the public.
Our winches have a completely custom design including, competition style solenoid, a motor breather (we are the only winch on the market that comes with a breather) and an integrated cut off switch built into the winch (stops cases of winches being shorted and pulling themselves in and removes the need to wire in an isolator). We’ve also integrated some design elements such as a low profile clutch handle to make it easier to fit into some bars (I personally found this a big win when I installed it in my GU series III genuine Nissan Bar), a torch on the wireless remote for those night-time winch sessions, strengthened casings, stronger motors and improved motor and gearbox seals. Plus they look great with the black look!
From personal experience of my 12,000lb with rope, the thing just keeps pulling
Let me know if you need any more info or details!
EDIT:
One feature of the winch that is quite interesting and I find both comforting and annoying is that the wireless reciever is a little dome dongle that you plug in to the wired connection point. What this does is provide you with the ability to completely disconnect the wireless controller from the control box (something that I find very re-assuring as there is no risk of the wireless controller activating the winch). But the downside is that you have a little dongle that you either leave on the control box permanently (something you can do, but I prefer not to so people can't knick it) or you need to put on the box every time you want to use the winch (I tend to put it on whenever I head off on a trip and take it off after I've finished) - but this can be a little annoying, especially if you don't plan to use it.
As stated, we use our products and test them in the real world and are constantly improving upon them. Infact I bought the winch before I started working at Ironman 4x4 so the purchase decision for that was one of value, features and a warranty that backs up its products with real world use.

Thanks, that's great, realistically wasn't expecting an answer for a while.
They do look great, hopefully perform just as well.
