9.5T Winch $350! TILL DEC 23

[equipt]

20% off at SCA tomorrow, That means a winch for $280. You could barely buy a hand winch for that price.

 

[Al]

if you can find it in stock lol

They will give you a rain check if they are sold out. I did that with a retractable shop air hose thing from there a few weeks ago. It was 50% off and they gave me a rain check, then they called me up about 2 weeks later and said it was in.

 

[Bvandermaat]

The sale for it ended on the first, so it is back up to $700 now. So $560 with the 20% off if my math is correct (I suck at math)

Was tempted to go in today and have a look at one of these, would be handy when pulling down trees, oh and offroad.

 

[Bvandermaat]

I was very surprised how hard it was to pull down a tree. When I got stuck there were a few times where the only trees I could use were not even a foot wide.

You can use comparatively tiny trees provided you can wrap the protector around the very base of the tree (ground level)

 

[Bvandermaat]

Yeah that is what I was doing on the smaller trees. Also had a winch block.

 

[mitch92]

Yea i was more meaning some of the ironbark's etc. i have been helping a friend knock down. Been tying rope up near top, down to a winch, and keep the tension on hard as i hook in with the chainsaw.

Sounds a bit dodgier in words then in practice, only give it a pull on the very last bit to ensure it goes the right way.

I used mine last weekend my mate has a GU bogged in mud to the axels had to winch him out worked buitifuly all up winched him about 40m ( had to winch twice to get him out) very happy and surprised every 1 thought it would break lol.

 

[Blu Roo]

Saw the 4500kg winch from Aldi today and it was $399. Dont know much about them but remember someone on here had one.Would be interested to know if they are OK or not. Would only use it occasionally. Any thoughts?

 

[briggo]

Does it have a warranty ? The supercheap one only has a one year but like **** if it saves me the once in a year then it's worth it I think

 

[Matt76]

Most of the big name winches only have 12 month warranty anyway. The Tigerz has a 5 year warranty but must be serviced every 12 months by an authorised agent.

 

[justdrinkbeer]

My mate had an Aldi one, got dunked pulling me out of a river, never worked again.

For a few hundred bucks i'd save up for a name one, or at least one you can get spares for easily enough.

Briggo, how pissed you gonna be if you don't use it for 13months+ and it lets you down first go?

 

[scooba_285]

haha that would suck

 

[ScottyMal]

Had a warn on a work ute do the same. Probly more poor maitenance than poor product. Still a ***** thing to happen

 

[briggo]

already used it pulled my mates GU out of quite a big bog hole he was down to the axels in ****........ fingers crossed it works as well if i actually need it tho
