Had a very eye-opening experience at LOTW last weekend, hit a slush pocket about 5mi off shore. Luckily we took my buddy's can am defender and remembered to throw the recovery bar in the box. The front right track fell through into about 1.5ft of water under the snow. We were finally able to winch out after about an hour of drilling holes, winching, and digging and nothing broke. The 4500lb Superwinch that came on it factory did great, although it seems we bent the mounting bracket (I think we pulled at too much of an angle the first time) so that will maybe need to be replaced.
I need to put a winch on my Ranger. Prices are all over the place, from $150 for a 5k lb badlands winch from harbor freight to $750 for a Warn. Expensive doesn't always equal best, so lets hear some feedback on winches!
