LOL.
The Himount is an Awesome Winch that works great. As you have explained though they really are at their limit or beyond their limit is standard trim. Going straight to a Double Line pull is not unreasonable if the winch out is not a simple one. That would be my goto.
The Comp guys have spent Bulk Coin building a Himount to be way more than what you see in those pics. Ratio Changes, Hellfire gear sets, double motors and 24v. Gigglepin Brake shafts and GP Brake shoes. GP Solenoids and GP Free spools. $$$$$
Be happy to own a HiMount. Use it, double line pull it.

The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

How do the Iskra motors handle spooling out no load running 12V? Know the air free spools are pretty snazzy but may be a luxury for occasional use to save a few $$ ?? . . .

Yeah the air free spools are absolutely awesome no doubt about that. But unless you have a spare grand you are happy to part with they are not necessary for recreational use.
Absolute MUST have for racing though.
Hey Markie I reckon I have a brake rebuild kit here you can have, it is missing the brake discs though but you can buy those. I'll have a look in the shed on the weekend.

Also need Albright solenoid and switch for in cab. .

Junk.
The solenoid is the weakest link and under the greatest stress pushing huge amps. You do eant to hear 'click' and nothing when you need it most.
The list above is what i would spend $2k on....
Nobody Ever pulls the freespool gandle to spool out. Spooling out 9n the switch is most xommon on a himount because they are fast. 12v motors running 24v dont like spooling out. Air freespool is the only way.
