hi mate, did you see the P&h charge, $143.00. add that to the price of the solenoid and for that price you can get one from a guy in nsw with a twelve month warranty.

Seen them on EBay with a 3 year warranty, so cant be too bad esp at the price. Will be getting one when I get my tax back hopefully

Fitted one with synthetic rope to my 80 last week. Fitting was awkward but that was due to the Opposite Lock front bar I have and I also mounted the solenoid in the engine bay with a master kill switch and in cab winch control.....so i took my time with it all.

The seals appear to be very good (I had to rotate the gearbox to suit the OL bar). The solenoid was easy to adjust the wiring and also appears waterproof.

May get to use (correction I WANT to use it) this weekend.

And Postage to Perth was only $99 and my missus said it was a good and easy buy on ebay.

ive researched them a bit and seem to be quiet good - 12000lb, plasma and 3 yr warranty for less than a chewed up second hand warn ($800) anyday!!! I think i read somewhere that they were in another market before entering the 4wd realm with winches - did a google search and couldn't find anything. If it means anything Simon from 4WDTV has them as a sponsor...???

thanks mate sounds all good might have to get it and see what its like

I just fitted one to the front of my Jeep. I have the 10k pound one.

I am mounting the solenoid under the bonnet and will be installing a kill/off switch eventually. In the interim I just disconnect it from the positive terminal so it can't be run.

I am going to the Jeep jamboree this weekend, hopefully I will get a chance to use it in anger...I will let you know how it goes.

What sort of master kill switch would work on a winch like that 12000lb one?

Post by **stonermq** » Wed Sep 24, 2008 6:40 pm

no idea what kill switch would work ill ask tomorrow when i go pick mine up (if i remember)

Post by **Hobzee** » Wed Sep 24, 2008 7:11 pm

Hey guys I stocked up on the below switches for CCDA cut off regs and only sold a few - These are ideal for winches. I will sell them for $50 off to any Outer members who call us and pay over the phone .. while stocks last.

250 continuous amps shoud do the job.

ahhh....sarcasm is a lost art form.

Post by **stonermq** » Wed Sep 24, 2008 9:56 pm

i agree with tigerz11 some sort of deal has had to be done for them to test it. something like you scratch my back ill scratch yours maybe

Post by **Slunnie** » Thu Sep 25, 2008 6:58 pm

Will the tigerz11 solinoid mount inside the Warn solinoid box and wire in to everything easily enough?

Another ques... with the radio control, will others with the same control box end up controlling all of the spectators winchs also, or are they reasonable individual in the frequency???

Of course something like that will happen and it could be for free. He lets simon test the winch and says the brands name 10 times in the segment that is on air, gives it a good wrap on TV and there is your deal between the 2 im geussing. Lets just hope it is a good testing program and if there is any problems whilst simon uses it is mentioned on the show.

Post by **chpd80** » Thu Sep 25, 2008 7:59 pm

Whats a bet the guy who gave simon the test winch has something to do with deer hunting

Is it just me or does everyone on the "your rigs" segment seem to be one of Simons hunting mates.??????
