[AJD] Check out Harbor freights sale on 8000lb winches

[Dean VP]

Brad:

I too sure would like to hear from someone who has some experience with this
winch. They call it a 3 stage, which I'm not sure I understand. They follow
that with three different take-up speeds for the three power ranges. I don't
know if that is manually set or automatic. 

I'm not sure I need the deluxe capabilities of a Warn type but I sure would
want a $300 one to do the 8000lb job. I'm sure this isn't as good a winch as
the name brand guys but I don't use a winch very often anyway. I'm using the
same philosophy here as other tools when I break down and buy from HF rather
than the higher quality stuff. If it's good enough at a low enough price so
be it.

Has someone bought and used these winches? It would be nice to know how 
they worked. I wouldn't like to spend $300.00 and find it does not work 
well.
