Guys
U r most probably rite about price.
thing is that I searched bilal gunj Lhr and Peshawar markets . Came across warn , ramsey and toyota winches in the range of 14 k to 20 k . Most of them were 24 v models and 12 v are quite rare.
then I got hold of this one from chamman through a known guy who must have taken his share also from me .
there is only one good point . IT IS ORIGNIAL AND COMPLETE AND IN "REASONABLE GOOD CONDITION" as a friend put it .
NONE of the winches that i scouted came even close to being complete . The gear box were always found opened and i know for a fact that plannetry gears can not be tempered with .
I am not being defensive , but here is a winch that (may) be of use for me after modification only . That is the sole reason ,it is up for sale at original cost or for swap with a smaller winch .
