Gorilla Winch
I know this has been asked before, but with all my research, comparison's etc. I have yet to find anyone who has actually bought a 8-10K Gorilla winch. I find atv owners happy with the small ones, there has been enough of these things sold that someone has to own one and can give first hand opinions. Price is right, just can't find actual owners.

Well I am one of the people that run one on my atv. #3000
I would not be afraid to run on on my truck. They are chinese made. But like most stuff that the chinese build it is an exact copy of other brands.
I work with a lot of chinese built equiptment. The rig that I work on was built in china. I have some good equiptment on it and could not be happier with the performance.

The Chinese part doesn't bother me. Most if not all of the cheaper winches are Chinese and probably made in the same plant. Just diff. labels. The spec's are good, series wound, planetary gears, good ratio, hp and line speed. It just bothers me that of all the searching I've done can't find one person that bought a 8-10K. I'm just going to use it on a trailer and it's even cheaper than Harbor Freight's Chicago Electric. Would like to buy parts when it does break.
