    Your winch is it any good

    Here we go finally we can decide if certain brands are worth avoiding or not.
    I have a Warn 9.5 XP very happy of course. Don't get to use it as much as I should ,only for medical reasons. That hopefully will change soon.

    Got the new Ironman 12000lb and very happy with it so far. Haven't had it long enough to really say if it's good or not.

    If you're happy and you know it tap a post!
