Looking for a reasonabley priced winch for my Polaris 700 . Found one at WalMart for 92.00 Looks like the on the one Polaris sells. Harbor Freight has one like it also. Any other suggestions?[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]

 

you should look on ebay i got one for $125.00 with a mount. i have it for about a year know with no problems. it is a 3000 pound exstream.

 

if you want a warn "polaris winch" but a warn..my buddy bought one of them harbor freight ones and lets just say it work like 2 times..its just a cheap winch and you can tell when you need it..

 

DO NOT put a cheap winch on a $6000-$7000 machine. There are many cheap brands that will work but people who buy Warn buy them for their reliability. I have seen Warn winches pull an atv right off the ground or pull someone out of the mudd when their winch was underwater. A warn winch is only $200 more than a cheap winch. Having the peace of mind that my winch will get me out (if the cable is long enough) is easily worth it. I also carry another 100 ft. strap & boy have I needed it. I have had Warn's on all my atv's & so have my riding buddies. We have never had a problem with them. We burned up a superwinch in 5 min. trying to pull a SP 800 out of the slimy stuff.

Just type in "warn atv winch" in google & start looking. They are not that tough to install

 

Go with a venom, or a gorilla, they can be found all over ebay.

 

I agree. Ive always used WARN. Had a few buddies went the cheap way! Did not last long they came back TO <u>WARN</u>!!!!!

Has anyone used the milemarker ATV winch? Have one on my truck and it works great - hasn't let me down yet. Price wise they are still in the affordable range - $144 plus shipping.
