I asked a while ago to have a cable re-crimped such as yours, maybe 2 mtrs. was told that the re-crimp wouldn't be rated as the original. As the cable has been used it has become thinner, therefore a 8mm swage will be too large, same for 10mm.

Maloolaba engineering and slipway have the machine to do the job on the sunshine coast. They have the machine at the back of the shop and a roller door right next too it. You can just drive around the back, pull your winch cable out and rob should be able to get you back in buisness.
thanks

just for everyone. i just spent 2 hours on the phone and no one wanted to do it for me or wanted to fully inspect my cable and it had to be a1 and charged like hell, but finally got on to ATS nets and ropes at clontaff, getting it done tomorrow for a hole $16 so im happy with that
