I respect your opinion Firehog. It really at the time had nothing to do with saving a buck. I never looked at Warn prior. I had owned a Viper winch with my old Rubicon and had great success with it. I wanted something at the time that would lift my plow and never though I would be suck in 3 feet of snow in the middle of "Bufuville" with a winch that did not work. I wish today that I did research Warn. And would I have faith in the new Gorilla after what has happened. No. Does anyone know if I can use my current Gorilla mounting plate for a Warn or do I have to get a new plate also? I looked at the holes and it is the same size as under the warn winch, but looking at the Warn mount it looks different. Reason why I ask is because I had a very hard time getting the warn bump and Moose rapid mount plow mount to fit and would hate to take it all apart again!

yea most of the winches are all the same bolt pattern the gorrila winch mounts have a big list of warn winches that will fit them including venom and alot of other brands.
