Outer Limits 4x4 Board

I've got myself a Brawn winch, second hand of course, I've done cant of searches on these and cant seem to find much out. what if found so far is they have gone bust, i can use the same motor as a Warn. I did hear a rummer that there a lot more water proof, and have stronger gears than warn, can any back this up, or give us any info on them? any help appreciated, basically, i don't wanna waist my time fitting it to find out there a piece of S**T.

They had a good rep, and wont be any worse than your $2 chinese winch.

fit it and enjoy it.

Brawn were imported chinesse winches that were stripped down and re-built with modified gearbox components and o'riongs around the drum to help prevent water ingress.
They proved reasonably reliable but the modification process was too expensive to maintain in todays financial climate.

As Ruffy has mentioned, I also was told by the owner at the time they rewound the motors as well. I have one fitted to my GU ( 10000lb ) works a treat.

I haven't stalled it yet but I've had the steel cable start to sing ( ready to break ) replaced with plasma. So there not lacking in pulling power.
