Warn v Superwinch v Superatv ops??

1000-5 (base model)

Assuming 4500# and rope.

What say you?

Superwinch, never an issue in 4 years, waterlogged, and still works

 

[bjniceguy]

you might as well ask what color everyone thinks is best. You will find 10 guys that love one brand and another 10 that had bad experience with same one. All I will suggest is going to better model from whatever brand you chose that is listed waterproof. Rope is best for safety and your hands. 4500 LB should be plenty. I have always went with dash mount switch plus extra Wireless switch so can do own roll back in while keeping tension if alone

 

[HGJENKINS]

I figured there may not be a consensus.heh!

Appreciate all the input i can get. Good thought on the waterproof....

I’ve never had any of them but I bet you’d be good with any of them. I know several guys that are running super winch if that helps.

Check out the deal you can get through the forum store. Hondasxs.com has a great deal.

I bought the viper elite from the club store and am very happy with it. Russ989 has a video posted on winch installation as well.

The money pit never ends, lol. The amount of accessories you can put on these things seems to be endless.. You could hit up @mystic1219 for a custom one or go with a PBR...

I was just looking at the same PBR panel. How did you set up your speakers? There dont seem to be a lot of passive soundbar options (but i am also no audio expert - just need to hear the football game over the leaves rustling...). Thanks!

I have 2 Rockville 6.5” marine speakers hanging off the back roll bar. I ran outdoor speaker wires from the radio up the passenger A pillar and followed the frame to the back. A 10’ strand and a 12’ strands will get you back there. Let me know if you have anymore questions.
