Ya picked one up here in Moncton NB, not sure what to do with it yet . I have a Warn on the front of my bike now but at that price I couldn't walk by.

 

I hooked one up to ceiling joists and lift my quad up for working and cleaning it. buddy is supposed to pick me up another for the cottage.

 

I just picked 2 up the other day, these things arent all that bad.... I built a bike/atv/tractor/sled/dune buggy lift that could also lift a Sherman tank if need arises, and added a Champion/Costco special on it to lift it up. Workx great. Needed 2 ****** blocks, but lifts very smooth and effective. Then I biult a bracket to mount into my rear hitch, and now have a portable rear winch system, for pulling out other atv's [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] Ill add some pics in my gallery once I get it figured out..... But for $60, if it work twice and get you outta a pinch, hey why not....

 

I just bought my chicago electric 2000# winch. Its goin on a 04 big bear. I'll keep you guys posted on how it works out. I paid 60 bux and with that came a 15 month one time replacement warranty. The cashier said that if it ever breaks, bring it back and they will replace it with a brand new one in the box, no questions asked. The winch was 50 plus tax and the extended warranty was somethin like 4.99.

 

My sister in law lives in Moncton.I'll have to get her to go look for me.

 

My uncle and i just went to a homire or how ever you spell it show tool sale and he got a 2000lbs wentch with remote for 39.99 yesturday.

 

How do these winches wire up because I want to put one on my z250 (probably have to have a mount custom made because I have an aftermarket bumper)

are they hard to wire up? my bike has the same electrical system as most utility bikes

 

I bought some quick disconects from my Yamaha dealer. they were from superwinch.cost for 1 half was $11. so for 25$ or so I just connect right to battery with one half and the winch the other. disconnecting the controller when not in use.

Princess Auto has a bunch of winches on sale right now. small to 8000lbs. American money goes quite a bit farther up here.
