WARN® - Series G2 Hydraulic Winch w/o Rope

Looks great on the front of my truck but the cable has a kink so will need to contact Warn about getting a replacement, but the will as always do whatever it takes to make the customer happy. Hopefully I will never have to use it.

This is a great all around winch. It has gotten me out of mud holes more times that I can count. No need to let it cool down for one tug unless you're in really deep. This winch performs great. Excellent for the cost.

I bought a 1971 Toyota FJ40 at auction and it needed a winch, but the PTO ones are hard to find and operate. This one is spectacular, top of the line. I was surprised that if required a mounting plate that was never offered and had to be bought elsewhere, and that it could not be hard wired to the electrical system in the vehicle. On a dark, winter night, caught in a snow bank, I would not like to be fumbling for the extension cord with cold hands and no flashlight. I ordered the nylon cable, because the braided wite would be tough on a non-gloved hand. This looks impressive and seems well engineered. Hope I never need it, but glad it is mounted.

Fits great in the grumper, looks good and pretty easy to install. If installing on a grumper front end, I would advise installing the rope/wire before attaching the top half of the grill to the truck, otherwise there is not enough room to install properly. This is on a 2017 Ram 2500.

Seems to be great so far.

Fits great in our new bumper.

Excellent!

This is the best basic winch you can get. Don't be fooled into buying any of the cheaper ones. Learn from my mistakes. It does what it says it does. Pulls four tons. Has paid for itself in my case with one emergency use. Had to pull and lift 2.5 tons which it did with ease. I would recommend having a snatch block and either a chain or heavy strap to give more options when needed. It is not always possible to get the truck with the winch in exactly the right spot. The snatch block allows for more choices.

I'll say it again, M8000 now comes with a mounting bracket so no need to order another unless you want a spare...So far I have only operated it to stretch the line. It seems everyone has one of these. One thing I should have considered- my driving habits. I know many people submerge their winches without problem and I do my fair share of water crossings.... I'm not saying don't get this if you see any water...it's just something to consider Great price for one of Warns top selling winches- lifetime warranty- Warns ultimate reliability. I'll update after more use. Aside from the winch you'll need to invest in a few things. A tree protector strap (not an ordinary tow strap), a snatch block or two (doubles your pulling capacity), shackle or two, heavy duty gloves, and a heavy blanket or jacket. You can buy a kit which includes much of what you need.

This Winch is fantastic... pulls almost anything with ease. Would defiantly recommend this for anyone who is thinking about a winch... save yourself the time and effort, and buy a quality product from the beginning. I know it is a little more expensive, but it is a quality product that I will stake my reputation on. P.S. Make sure you have a good Battery.
