I just realized my winch doesnt hold my plow up anymore, I lift the plow up and when im not moving it stays up but as soon as i go it slowly lowers itself to the groung. The winch cable is tight so it isnt slack in that. Anybody have any ideas?

Derek,

The first thought that came to mind was, make sure the lever is on engage and not free spool, on the winch. A properly working winch should not lose tension.

Good Luck

Never had a problem with my SuperWinch. I'd suggest contacting SuperWinch (Jack Jolley) he is very responsive and can give you some good insight. I know at this point it's too late, but go to their website and e-mail him, or call tomorrow.
