Where are you ?
I have one for sale that you can grab for $ 150, works real well 20 m of cable. It's a Tirfor style [ brand Tonga ] looks and works the same as a Tirfor T516.
Pick up onlyas I am too busy to stuff around with the post.
I live on the Sunshine Coast, Qld. Pm me if interested.

Check the past issues of 4WD monthly. They had a shootout of the best hand winches and for memory the Big Haul jobbies came in best value for money. The Tirfor brand does have a good name, however if you are after the best value, the big haul is probably your best bet without costing you too much.
You should be able to pick up a new 2.5 T one under $380 and if lucky a dusty one that has seen little to no use under the $300 mark. Check this and other forums for sale sections.
Cheers

Have used a tirfor hand winch in the past without problems, but the best hand winch is one operated by someone else
