I've been an off road trail guide for years so my knowledge of winches is only based on 4 wheeling. I just bought a new 9.5 Super Winch. it was the best for my use becouse unloaded line speed is critical for my aplication and if you take one apart and see how they are built you will see why. Warn is the world leader and they are easy to use. They cost extra for some reason. Ramsey are great and they have a lower cost line of winch that I really like. For you I would consider the harbor freight winch. Mile Marker sells the same winch with their name on it. Ya it's a china winch but they have a good reputation for such a cheap winch. I can't see any reason you would need the kind of line speed I need so I would not pay for it. My next choice and probably the one I would but is the Ramsey Rep 850 Its 8.5k and I saw it in their Oklahoma factory and it is built nice. It is only priced cheap because they needed a winch to compete with the good winch from china and they know I guy like me will spend twice as much for a faster winch. I happen to have the latest Petersons 4 wheel and off road magazine in my laptop bag and national tire wheel has them for $429. You dont need a roller fairlead because the guide(hawse) for the cable it comes with works fine. Use fat welding cable for the wiring because they all draw a ton of current. National tire 1-800-847-3287.
