Smittybilt XRC8 Winch
 

What do u think of this winch? Pros - Cons... I know you can't compare this to a Warn winch but some guy can trade this brand new winch for my used set of tires :dontknow2:

I like mine.

Not nearly as slow as people make it out to be.

I have a XRC10 and it is great. I have used it about a dozen times in the last couple of months and it has worked well. It is easy to install, built well, and has a fast pull speed.

If I had the money I would have gone Warn but from the price it works great!

Get it! My buddy has the 10k one on his and it he pulled dump truck out last week! Plus, for what $400 vs the $1000 for Warn and others...it is not like it is used every day. I also saw his winch outlast that Warn Power Plant (air and winch unit) this past December...hard to see where it is all bad to spend that kind of money and see it outperform the Warn!

Thanks for your replies guys ! :thumbsup: Anyone else?

I have had the XRC-8 for about a year and used it over and over again with no problems.
when getting the XRC-8 though make sure you get the new version not the old one, I got one of the first ones of the new one's. My brother has the old style and it works but is VERY slow and hasnt held up real well. it is 2 years old I think.

How can I know the difference between the new and the old one? :thinking:

X2, my XRC comp10 works GREAT and it was very inexpensive:thumbsup:

I have only had my xrc8 for a couple of months and still havent had a chance to use it arggg:mad: but for the money its an excellent buy, it did scare the crap out of me when i first got it cause i couldnt get it to free spool but i eventually figured it out.
