Who needs a big winch?

[Recovry4x4]

For all you guys who need more winch, here's some on ebay. They appear to be 20,000# winches from 900 series 5 tonners complete wth hydraulic motors. Great drag wnch for the back of my wrecker but they're just too far away.

This is EXACTLY what I'm looking for. I requested a price from them, as they say in the ad they have six of them. So we will see what it takes. I'll post the results here. jim

Straight from the horses ... er sellers email :

the reserve is $1500.00, and you are responsible for shipping, we can have them ready for you. the dimensions are as followed; 28 inches wide, 23 inches deep w/ pump its 36 inches deep. 17 inches tall and they weigh between 200-250 pounds. let me know, thanks, jessica

I think I'll keep looking. While these look in great shape, there HAS to be one out there for under $1000. At least I hope so! jim

They will have them for a while!

no kidding at 1500

WHEWEE!

I too thought it was a bit high... but being FNG didn't have the guts to say so, cause I wasn't positive.

I generally ONLY bet SURE THINGS. OOPS, probably shouldn't had told you that ...

I can score 1 more 20K winch and cable / chain (only) for $750 plus shipping (likely $120 to denver). It's in Wyoming - I have photos.

Complete kit with levers is usually around $1200-1500, so that is an average to high price.

Just thought I'd toss that out.

also all the winches are UPSIDE down, which means that all the winch controls are down on the pallet

Robert,

I EITHER want the one your Dad has, if he hasn't sold it yet OR that one.
We'll talk on Saturday, OK?

OK - well I'll hang on to the one in Wyoming. I sold the one here at his house.
