I need advice on winches

i've found the best value for money is the G.M. winch. they come in all drive configurations, are low maintenance, remote mount, can pull from any direction, add no weight to your landy, draw no power from your battery, and cost you no money.
i carry a tirfor in case my Good Mate's winch breaks down or cannot pull him from his predicament.

ebay seems to be the new way to get rid of tax free imports legally.

how do you go with warranty on some of these items?
