The 8500 might be a little light weight for the 90. Others may be able to comment with more experience than me though.

I've had an EP9 for years and, despite the drum bearings being totally shot, it still kept on going. I'm more than happy with it.

Dont know much about that winch, But I used a champion 8000lb for a while pulled no probs, so size wise you should be fine.
Although I have upgraded to a warn xd9000 :D

As far as I can tell from t'internet, it is a lightweight budget winch designed for rock crawling. But a part from that it is being rated pretty similar to the Warn Tabor.
