    this is what i was thinking as i dont even have a bar yet but figure if there is still one in the local shop when they get marked down ill consider.

    Dural Aldi was where I got my two, you just need to know which branch has the area manager on staff as thats the branch that gets the leftovers from other stores
    'Cept the area manager that was at Dural moved to another store where my mate happened to be working...

    Well if you miss out on an Aldi. I found this 12,000lb one for $100 more.

    Online Electric Winch - 12000lb (5440kg) Discounts | Electric Winch - 12000lb (5440kg) | Online @ Deals Direct.com.au

    Cant vouch for it, just passing on what I found.

    I was reading this article on winches and noticed it says you have to mark the location of the housing to ensure the correct alignment on reassembly:

    I take it the housing on the ALDI winch can be rotated and put back in a different position, depending on which way up you mount the winch and where you want the clutch lever to sit?

    I think this answers my question. Can you rotate it to 4 different positions?
