have a suss around as there are heaps of cheap winches around, just need one with some after sales service/parts backup.

Dan @ KPD4x4 is a champ, would be worth dropping him an email for a price. will probably get free freight at a minimum for name dropping.

universally known as an albright solenoid

yeah most of the winches that run the starter motor style can solenoids and are the ones that give all the problems, the RUNVA's run albright solenoids from factory along with a heap of other brands. albright solenoid http://www.expeditionexchange.com/superwinch/superwinch004%20004.jpg http://files....

plazma rope wins over wire cable for handing etc but you've got to be careful with it dragging over rocks etc + there is a massive weight saving. there are 1000's of winches on the market these days & i reckon you'd be crazy to drop that sort of coin on a winch that didn't already have rope on i...

they pop up on ebay every so often... been tempted to buy one just for the fuck of it, but it's just going to sit around collecting dust.

not many options for those jiggers & if you find one it won't be cheap. you'd probably be better off slapping a stock bumper back on from a wreckers & pissing one some paint to match it.

for what 4wd?
