Hello.
So half way through last weekend's off roading, my Superwinch started making a near ear splitting loud racket when spooling out. It is fine when pulling in but very noisy when running cable out.
I have heard noisy winches before (electric), so I guess it just happens, but does it mean its shagged/gonna break soon?
I had to run it in some mud at the weekend, and I guess running semi submerged in gloop has partially killed it.
It's only 6 months old, is this a warranty thing or does it happen to all winches eventually?
Btw, it sounds like the typical winch "bag of spanners" noise, just I reckon it's louder than usual.
Sounds painful almost
Any ideas...?
Cheers!
