Default Winch?

I would like some feedback on which winch would be the way to go? I was told that the polaris winch is designed exactly around the warn model and that the dealers have seen less callbacks on it>>>>>>>>>>>> >>>>>

thank you for your input...

I went with the Polaris winch, I couldn't see paying another $100 for the same 2500lb rated winch, which I probably won't use much anyway, thats my choice.

Thats what some say, I'm hoping but not too sure. Warn has three plants they build winches in, the closest to China is the Mexico plant [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] I'm not buying the "made in China" story. I know they buy their motors from Bosh and the relays from Japan. Some of the knock offs may have copied the specs off the Warn winches, but just like the China made quads they can't keep the quality control and integrity of the materials used up to standard. JMHO of course [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
