Id hit up ride5 his winches look the sickest for a damn good price. And I'm sure they are built to last forever.

ZackFL(BRE), thanks! Bobby did one hel! of a job on this thing. It is as solid as it gets and that go-kart engine is a heavy hitter for sure. Never had power an issue to say the least.
mead_hall, you are correct. Everything is where it should be and has the room it needs but nothing more. His engineering is spot on.....

I know everyone thinks Ridiculous Winches have corny or lame banners and stuff, but there new winch should be the best winch when its released. A bit pricey, but it has a 9hp HONDA engine, TAV2, releasing spool, compact design, Amsteel Blue 7/64 rope, deep water starts up to 265lbs and most importantly, Ben Horan has helped design it to his standards.
