Title: Gorilla Winch
Post by: TNTaylor on March 07, 2011, 01:02:14 PM
Anyone have any experience with a Gorilla or Promark Offroad winch?  They are significantly less expensive than a Warn so I'm wondering if they are any good.  The Warn winch I currently  have on my Vinson has died so I'm checking my options before I buy a replacement.  Any advice or recommendations would be appreciated.

I have a 3500 Gorilla. I have worked it to death for almost three years.  Works fine.  Pulls my 325 pound azz and my 780 pound bike no problem. The contactor that comes with it is junk. I use the wireless remote. The contactor that comes with that has never let me down.
