Hi I just wondered if anyone had replied to you via email?
I have just bought the 12000lb version I am hoping to get it fitted in the next couple of weeks to my discovery.
It was only £190 brand new so I thought I'd take a chance at that price. I'm desperate to find out if its actually up to the job.  :roll:

If in doubt go flat out!!!!

Yes it was from winch solutions I was looking into their feedbacks and noticed that they had sold some winches at around £190 so that's the bid I put on and won. :dance:
I suspect they are shill bidding their own auctions as they all seem to fetch the same price unless someone has used the buy it now option then they pay £250

Only just seen this post :roll:

I have a C15,000N on the front of my truck and its great! I know a few people running Champion Winches and have not heard of any problems with the winch at all, the solenoid packs have been a little tempremental in the wet stuff though!

Very good winches overall though, good value for the money! I also have a cheap winch (9000lb) off ebay fitted to the rear of my truck, burnt out 2 motors on it so far from the company i bought it from, replaced it with a Champion one from winch solutions and not had a problem since :cool: :cool:

Cheers
