@@renegaderiders9289 evidently the remote is not under warranty? Could it be just a bad battery (if not fixed by smittybilt, maybe just 10 dollars or so from a specialty battery store)? I am considering this exact same winch and there is almost nothing out here in youtube-land about these. Any updates will be appreciated! :-)
@@tattooedmillionair this winch I excellent. I did not warranty the wireless transmitter because I had been so happy with the winch after using it 12 times and two of those times was on a bulldozer. I did because I ride snowmobiles in the back county and other remote locations, so it is critical that it works. So I replaced it with a bulletproof hard wired switch, the waterproof relays seemed good enough but a relay box could be built. Would definitely buy again, matter a fact I did for my 04 f250 6.0
Did you get this to fit in the move bumper. I just built one for my f550 and have the exact same winch but there is hardly any room for it.
Getting ready to buy the same winch for my log hauling trailer , let me know how it does ?
Well any update? Have you put it to the test yet? Looking for one to put on my 13,000 skid steer.
Absolutely, works great used it on my 1999 f350, biggest thing I pulled out was a d4 bulldozer. Didn't even have to use a block and tackle
Was the controller box already mounted on the winch or did you mount it after opening the packaging?
Already mounted, I ended up hard wiring a switch on my dash
How long is the wire i was on there site and it dont say ?? thanks cheers ...90 FT !?
90ft
@@renegaderiders9289 Thank you :)
How has it treated you so far?
Pretty good wireless remote didn't last long, but I just did a hard line switch into the cab.
