well i snapped the main shaft. in the winch, pulling a 4800 pound GMC jimmy onto my flatbed trailer. I have pulled alot of cars up onto the trailer with this winch. and i guess the cold weather we have had and made the shaft weak. so im trying to find a parts list, for the winch to rebuild it.
the 2.5 winch with 6 gauge wire, hooked to a 530CCA deep cycle battery, has pulled more stuff then it should have. and the most was 7340 lbs. and that with the line doubled up and winching. and placing a block in front of the tires. as i let off the winch button to let the motor cool down. get this it broke when the jimmy was 3/4 onto the trailer.,, now if anyone says warn winches suck. i have proof they are great. yes it did break but it has worked triple more then what it was made to do.
if any one has any spare warn winches laying around let me know.
I the older style. not the XT ot CT. i think its a CI or just an I. the sticker is gone. ill look at it to make sure.
