BUT SHE DID GET VERY WARM WHEN DID DO A LET OUT
MAYBE THE CYCLE WAS TOO LONG

 

Well The Winch Is Now Trail Tested

And Wouldn't Give Up In A Pull Up The Mud And Rocks On The "lescalier " In Weir

 

So, it comes with a hawse fairlead I see ...as opposed to the traditional roller fairlead. Is this good or bad given it doesn't come with synthetic rope?

Did the hawse fairlead hold up after a couple of uses...or is it (and your cable) all scratched/banged up now?

I'm debating this winch vs. the Smittybuilt XRC-8.
