The Jeeper has had his for 2 years. He would like a Warn so I'll probably inherit it eventually. It's had loads of use, it's nothing special (so he says) but has got him and other people unstuck, up or down rock faces on numerous occasions.

You can get hammer on cone thingys for the ends of the bolts they crush on and then you cant grip them with moles, you need a grinder to cut them off and unlike welding it wont damage the bolt (read that if you weld the bolt it weakens it) might be bollocks though
 
The Jeeper's is installed inside the front bumper so you can't see it unless he takes the cover off.
 
I,ve got one !.

Seems like a good bit of kit.

Spares a cheaply available from Bearmach.

As with all winches, ( or maybe just the cheaper ones ), its a good idea to " service " them once in a while.

When I got mine it didnt work very well, and when I took the motor apart, I found this.

Water and mud had got in and caused the armature to sieze in the field.

The brushes had seen better days, so I put a new set in for £10.00.

Cheers.
