Long story short. Terrible experience with two $hittybilt 9500 XRC synthetic rope winches from Extreme Terrain.
They are taking care of me in terms of returning it and upgrading. At my price point I have two options. A 9500lb Barricade synthetic rope with wireless controller or a 8000lb Warn VR8-S synthetic rope PLUS $100.
I know Warn is the holy grail but it's only 8000lb vs. the 9500lb of the Barricade. Here are the winches and I would appreciate any advice but please know these are my only two choices. I don't have nay money to throw at this to buy some much more expensive one which I'm sure someone will tell me to buy
