Winch wanted

Post by amondeggs » Sat Mar 05, 2016 10:03 pm

Hi folks

I'm looking for a winch and am willing to consider anything but would prefer warn or goodwinch.
Anything that is 9500lb or greater and ideally would be fitted with rope rather than wire.

Located in Midlands ideally but I'm prepared to travel or pay for courier.

Condition needs to be very good with no faults.

Thanks in advance Thumbs Up

Got some paracord and an old cotton reel I can flog you.

I've got a wire rope if you do need one.

No worries. If you do need a wire rope it's FOC to you - £200 if Bodsy wants it!

Wouldn't use wire, I sold brand new wire rope with unused roller fair lead for £20

I sold an unused genuine LR D3 winch to Simon & Clare. Don't think they ever used it and they sold the D3. Might be worth approaching them.

Looking like a good result all round and someone is likely to owe Dom a beer!
