Since I know we have a few people from down under I was wondering if any of them had experience with this brand of winch. They claim to be tested in Australia so I was curious.

They are sold here under a few different names and although I haven't personally used one I haven't heard bad things about them. The magazines have tested them and they seem to alright.

As with any of these winches I would strongly recommend tearing it down and regreasing it with a good quality grease and checking for any burs that may require a slight file.

They kind of do don't they.  ;)

Unless you go PTO though, they all look real similar.  ;D
