Just bought a 9500 Lb ironman winch for my GQ. Still to mod bar to make it fit as I have a non winch ARB steel bar.
Got the winch for $605 inc GST , kinda helps being in the trade sometimes.
Looks to be well made but the proof will be in the pudding. Am happy with the 3 year Wty. if it is crap ill remove it and have it exchanged and flog it off on ebay.
2005 TD 100 series GXl wagon . Stock except bar and tyres . Plan on doing lots of touring in this one.
