Hi, im looking at getting one of these from a local supplier $980, has anyone heard of them/ used them as i tried to google them but dont find much feedback about them

web site http://www.doubleblackoffroad.com/jeep- ... ous-Winch-" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

The info and specs off there site are as follows

The all new Smittybilt X2O 10 10,000 lb winch has all the muscle and peak performance you'll ever need in a winch. The latest X2O winches feature our series wound amphibious technology which completely seals the 5.5 series wound motor as well as the three stage planetary gear system. It has an oversized, completely waterproof, state of the art 500-AMP solenoid that has the versatility to be mounted over the winch motor or winch cable. The new X2O 10 performance is as good as it gets, it has 218:1 gear ratio that delivers lightning fast speed and with our lifetime warranty you can count on the X2O to be there every time in every situation.

Rated Line Pull: 10000 Lbs single-line
Gear Train: 3-Stage Planetary

Drum Size: Diameter 2.5 (63.5mm) Length 8.75 (222mm)

They seem good for the price as i dont want to fork out a big price for a warn as these with rope and fairlead seem a great price, i thought i read somwhere the built by warn any way.. but unsure of that..
