    12000pounds of china

    Just purchased a 12000 pound winch for the disco at a price of $285.00...

    I know....yes chinese. but i had a trigerz11 12000 on the last and that cost me $900.(still chinese but bogged up) you know i used it a few times to move some fallin limbs and pull a mate out.(vitara). there are draw backs with these chinese imports but hey at the moment im not complaining.(same winch is still performing well on a near by farmers navara, been on well over a year.)

    Time will tell, said that when i brought a chinese chainsaw 2 yrs ago, still cutting wood for the family, if it breaks. i'll buy another still be hundreds in front. chainsaw 24inch bar $89.

    they may be made dodgy from a ozzy point of view, but clearly there are some chinese winners!!! I'll stay in the running.

    Can I suggest that you remove the crap that the Chinese call grease (more like wax or soap) and replace it with some quality grease, I use Marine grade grease, Regards Frank.

    I look on ebay often, but the trick is to chase down the one of seller and sometimes you find that they are qite big internation sellers and are just testing the aust market thats how i have found most of my chinese buy's.

    AGR Machinery




    www.agrmachinery.com.au
    good chainsaws i have had 2 different size saws and have cut metres of hard wood. They do specials so keep your eyes on them. like i said 24inch $89.00 most of the time they are around $130.

    check out this link.......but messgae them tell them what you want to pay, i payed $285.00. istalled and had a play today seems good, drags the disco. farmer down the road uses same winch and has given it a hard time said "never complains".
    Alaka's Elec Shop items - Get great deals on items on eBay Stores!

    Also look at this for lockers, i also brought a exhaust jack which has performed well

    Yep, had one on Disco for ages.
    No real worries, but does stop when it gets to hot on long recoveries.
